Happy new year to all the artists who haven't had time, energy, passion, or any other needed resource to draw enough personal stuff to join end-of-the-year memes in 2025. May we find more of all of the above in 2026, as well as compassion for ourselves if we don't!

A doodle drawn in 2020. Axolotl decides to postpone everything until next year. A bright atmosphere that fits the end-of-year mood.

Perfect plan

An illustration of a sheep bundled in a pink festive sweater, red hat and overalls sits against a tree stump on a blue blanket and has a green patchwork blanket to keep out the cold. He has a red cup of cocoa and is knitting something with baby blue yarn. The tree stump has a window from which a gentleman mouse sipping from a cup is looking at the christmas lights that decorate the stump.

Friends, I'm wishing for you days filled with love and warmth and hope - they all seem in such short supply lately.

An illustration of a wintry night scene with a decorative border of winter flora and fauna, amidst the moon and stars. A girl and a wolf stand in the foreground, a gleaming castle stands in the background and a mighty figure obscured by a giant bird looms up in a sky with towering red clouds.

Happy winter solstice friends🩵💫❄️

I felt dreadfully.

A cover of Frankenstein with the creature looming over victor while pink flames engulf him. The backdrop is a mountainous valley with a silver crescent moon hanging above.

Every facet of generative AI has made my professional life worse, without question, but THIS specific aspect has been driving me NUTS.

Clients, who have made me toil for weeks over indescribably small details, are now approving & producing in-house commercial artwork that looks like a fever dream.
