photo showing a sketchbook portrait of a young woman drawn with color pencils

I bought colored pencils today and I had to take them for a test run. It was surprisingly relaxing, drawing with physical tools. It's frustrating not being able to just ctrl+z problems away but I learned to go with the flow and accept the small mistakes😌

A watercolor painting of a Shiba Inu with glasses and a black apron making takoyaki, a popular Japanese street food. He has a look of concentration and perhaps a bit of hungry impatience as he eagerly cooks. With a banner behind him and lanterns around, it gives the vibe of a food stall at a festival. Around the painting are the artist’s tools: a watercolor palette, mixing dish, and color pencils.

No festival outing is complete without some scrumptious street food! 🐙🏮
Thank you @shiranai.bsky.social for your trust in this commission!

A row of prints featuring a red horse and hand-applied gold embellishments

I made 5 signed-and-numbered editions of this print and each one is embellished by hand so they’re all slightly different! The first will be part of the art show, the remaining four are in my website!

amiyakom.com

The artist adds gold embellishments by hand to a print of a red horse, done in a style inspired by ink paintings from Japan. The horse charges forward with strong energy while the gold embellishments flow by like wind stoking flames.

The completed embellished print, in a thrifted gilded frame to match the gold embellishments.

QRP with your skull art!
Here is my Death card from The Botan Tarot 💀

A screenshot of a tweet that says: Your art will betray you. It will look better in your head than on paper. It will make you feel untalented some days. Love it anyway. Because one day, it will also surprise you, fulfill you, and remind you why you started.

Throwback to something worth repeating.

An XL pitbull named Boba Fett naps flat on his back outdoors on a deck, catching sunbeams on his belly. His jowls fall in such a way that he looks like he is grinning - one of his canines is missing (a result of the terrible conditions he was kept in in his previous life before rescue), but it’s one of his charming features.

Boba Fett the XL pittie naps in the sun on a deck. His enormous head is precariously perched at the edge of a step, causing his jowls to hang over.

Regular occurrence for our home, tho researchers would observe a strange phenomenon that they could only describe as “…are you even comfortable like that?”

Boba Fett ascended over the rainbow a few years ago, this thread was such a treat and gave me a nice excuse to go through all my photos of him💜

Artist! Quote with your fan art!

It always makes me happy when people see prints of this one and recognize what film it’s from, or which artist influence it’s inspired by!

Gorgeous!! They look nice a snug!

Sketch on watercolor paper of a Shiba Inu making takoyaki in a food stall.

Work-in-progress shot of the takoyaki-making Shiba Inu in watercolor. The background and some of the details of the foreground are painted, but the main character and takoyaki pan will be in the next phase.

#wip of a commission for @shiranai.bsky.social I’ve always had a soft spot for this stage of painting 😊 Excited to see it come together! #FurCon2026

I don’t think they’re inherently gross, though I do think better education and normalization of foot hygiene/care needs to happen (getting a pedicure is a genderless activity!). But also, feet are neat! They are so complex and provide a lot of feedback to our bodies about our world!

Friend shaped!!! So very friend shaped!!!

If you see this, post your art of a dragon! 🐲

Imagine looking into a patch of flowers and a tiny dragon is settled into one 🥹

Showing up how you can is still showing up!

The perfect swim buddy for aquatic activities! 🦈

My first time doing a limited edition YCH style commission! Thank you for your trust and support @orchardshark.bsky.social !

Uwaaaaa thank you for sharing!! 💜💜 it was an honor!

Omg this whole thread is a mood. Once a handyman grunted and heaved so loudly while working in my kitchen that I wanted to apologize to him for my ancient house 😭

So glad I got to briefly see you!! 💜💜💜 I hope you had a good time!

Artist’s table in the background - in the foreground I’m holding up a postcard I designed exclusively for this con, featuring a foxy femme cuddling an inflatable shark floatie, which is a nod to our local hockey team!

Let’s go Day 2 of #FurCon2026! I’m down the last dozen of my exclusive freebie postcard, swing by while you can in the Dealers Den!

This was also the first time in a long time that I brought original watercolor paintings to an event. While none found new homes today, people looked at them with such care and sweetness, it reignited in me the belief that people still appreciate art in its human-made forms.

A hand drawn and laminated sign of a foxy femme (dressed in a blue singlet and thigh high socks) using her thigh to crush a personification of AI while she playfully sticks out her tongue and throws a peace sign up. If you get a closeup look at this sign you’d see all the pencil marks from where I drew my base figures first, I’ve secretly always loved that somewhat rough and unfinished stage of my art!

Also I was so delighted any time someone noticed my little 100% Human Made Art sign 💪🏼 #FurCon2026

My 4ft space at FurCon, with prints, stickers, bookmarks, and postcards!

Thank you @furcon.bsky.social for a wonderful first day in the Dealers Den! Excited for Day 2 💜✨ #FurCon2026

AAAAH I WILL SEE YOU THERE!!!

Watercolor painting of a California Golden Bear sitting in a field of golden poppies and wildflowers. The bear holds a few blooms in their paws and admires them sweetly. Piece is titled “Superbloom Bear”, by Addi Miyako

Watercolor painting of two tanuki. One stands on the bed of a kei truck, holding a crate of ramune soda bottles. In the truck bed there is also a box of peaches, a crate of oranges, and a green cooler. This tanuki wears yellow boots, a green jumpsuit, gloves, and a cap; clearly a delivery driver! The other tanuki stands on the ground with an apron and clipboard, taking inventory of what’s being dropped off, possibly a restaurant or cafe owner. The scenery is a sunny seaside town. “Tanu-Kei Delivery Services” by Addi Miyako

Original watercolor painting “Charlie Cheese” by Addi Miyako. A mouse dressed like the 90s version of the Chuck E Cheese mascot takes a mirror selfie while holding a slice of pepperoni pizza. Surrounding him in this modern act are items of 80s or 90s nostalgia, such as an older game console, ATARI poster, Akira art.

“The Unicorn Knight” by Addi Miyako. Original watercolor to be featured in the Cherry Lenormand, which is launching 2026. A blue unicorn dips its head with both power and humility, donning a brilliant gold and purple harness with matching armor. Behind them is a bright yellow burst of color that radiates into red.

#FurCon2026 is just a few sleeps away! In addition to bookmarks, stickers, and prints, I’m bringing a handful of original watercolors this time for any art collectors! Here are just a few of the ones I have available 🐾

Close up of a handmade ornament on a fake olive tree lit up with fairy lights. The ornament features a simple drawing of a very chonky pittie wearing a beanie and a red scarf, framed in a wreath of evergreen branches and pine cones.

I didn’t have a chance to get a tree this year, but I made do with my little fake olive tree 🎄the perfect place to hang my very homemade ornament 🥰

A cute simple drawing of a crow sitting a top a Christmas tree, with a yellow star ornament hanging from his beak. The text says “May your days be merry and bright (and full of shiny things!)”.

Russell the Crow heard you need to put an angel on the tree…or was it a star? Either way he’s got it covered! #NaratheWitch
