Did you have a phase where you deeply mourned the loss of the Library of Alexandria, crying over the massive destructions of culture and knowledge that can never be recovered and is lost to the ether for all eternity, or are you normal?

It looks so pretty thus far! I can't wait to see the finished version!

Aww thank you! And I'm the opposite, I can knit pretty well but I need to re-learn crochet every time I try it! What doll/s do you have?

Ooh I've always loved the look of Vintage Story - I haven't played it yet though. I love modded Minecraft though so I really should try it haha

Random life update! I survived June, somehow!! I have finally almost finished organizing my room/office, and I've started playing with vinyl to make custom notebooks! I know life is a hellscape atm, so I hope this little post offers a brief reprieve. Would love to know what you have been up to!!

Market prep is a constant thing! I was working until 9 last night getting these babies ready for the Farmer's Market today!

I'm learning how to use heat transfer vinyl! You wouldn't think it'd be a hard lesson, but I have definitely made a few mistakes already (most of them are having too many small details in my designs).

But here are my first 3 projects, in reverse order! Tote bag, tank top, sketch book ✨ #craftywitch

The cat skull/crystal figure is a model I designed in Nomad Sculpt and 3D printed! The jars are from Daiso (ilu daiso!) and the moss is dyed moss from online. Right now they're not hot glued or anything, but I might do that going forward to make them a little more secure. 🥰

Now that I finally have space to work, I've been doing more crafty crafts! I made these little witchy skull bottle terrariums with artificial colored moss and 3D printed skulls + crystals. I also designed the 3D model - I'm pretty proud of how it turned out! What other skulls should I do? 💀👀

An Alphonse Mucha inspired, art nouveau styled digital art piece featuring a Rubenesque fallow-deer girl with large antlers, flowing purple-and-auburn hair, and a drapery blue dress. She is surrounded by ornate frames with peonies and leaves decorating them. The text reads: "Art Nouveau Brushes: a few Procreate brushes by Katu." It includes two links: "ko-fi.com/katu" and "witchbriar.com".

I made some Procreate brushes for an art nouveau style piece I did, and I wanted to share them here!

So normally it’s @its_me_cas_drawing doing the Furbies and me doing the Tamagotchi…but with our powers combined, we can create something greater than the sum of its parts: Furbitchi.

I just think it’s neat. #90snostalgia

Finally done! I wanted to do my own non-AI starter pack because I am a sheeple. It was surprisingly hard to think of things that I like that a) makes me unique and b) I wanted to draw. But I think it turned out okay! #starterpacknoai

A bottle of ghosts. I drew this for a sticker sheet, but honestly it’s one of my favorite things I’ve ever done, so I expanded on it ✨ #cuteillustration
