Bath time! 💦 (The white dish is his sister's bath, so he knows to us his own dish.) 😄

I love these!! 😍 I wonder if the particular tree charm you used comes in a titanium-coated variety, kinda like this? It would so pretty to have one that was completely rainbow, charm, beads and all! 🌈💖

The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BerriesAndBeaks, so here's Capri, our pearly conure, with a rowanberry. 😁 Fastest lick in the West! 👅

Ooh, that one is nice! 😍 I used a similar one to paint my hubby's nails last month! 💅💖

Photo of my little featherball cactus, which has developed "boobs", growing in a small grey pot on my desk. She also has a pair of googly eyes, just because. 😁

A bit belated, but had to share my son's neat Halloween costume! 😁 He went as a scarecrow-ox golem, who was reanimated by a necromancer cowgirl-witch (his girlfriend), as her familiar. They made an adorable (if very odd) couple! 🥰 (And the lights he installed in the head flickered.) 🐮🎃

Finished gift pic of the lovely Garma, for @cyrocreatures.com. ☺️🩷💙

#DigitalArt #DraftHorse #pony #pink #dappled #dusk #Medibang #YellowRose #YellowRibbon #glazed
Digital art done in bold outlines of a dappled pink draft pony with green eyes, and a blue mane, tail and hooves, shyly gazing downward while holding a yellow rose in her mouth. She has her forehooves crossed, and a yellow ribbon tied in her tail. She's standing in a grassy patch and the sky behind her is dusky, pastel gradient.

WIP giftart I started at Furnavia of the lovely Garma for @cyrocreatures.com. I'm coloring it now (she's very pink!) ☺️🩷 I'm also rather rusty on horse anatomy, so this is good practice for me. 😅

Yeah, avoid .Art at all costs. There are loads of other art instances with decent mods! And Mastodon is only *one* branch of the Fediverse; there are many, all catering to different needs (alternatives of X, Instagram, Facebook, Spotify, YouTube and more). Here's some different graphics to explain:

If you get any DMs like these, just block and report. These scammers will all say someone is impersonating your account, and that you need to go to Discord or email to resolve it. (These aren't my screenshots, but I've gotten loads of these "Hi, are you busy? I have a question." DMs here lately.)
