Little illustration of different plants and flowers in cute pots surrounded by all kinds of insects and creatures helping to create a cute and healthy garden. There are little bees, worms, snails, centipedes, rolypoly and an adorable ladybug.

A sphinx creature. It has the torso + head of a person, with dark wavy long hair, but the legs arms and tails of a feline. It also has wings, a sharp halo, and matching jagged golden scars across its body.

Against the twilight sky, the albino prince Elric dressed in black leather with silver accents stands casually with thumbs tucked into his belt and the flat of one foot propped on the inside of his opposite knee. He gazes off panel right at a sunset unseen. His cloak flaps behind him, mostly rendered in abstract as if casting a demonic bat-like shadow. A band of orange stretches low in the sky providing contrast to the rocky outcrop he stands upon. Behind him a skeletal bush catches the last magical rays of the sun, bathing in detail the textured ridges and wild bends of the bare, gnarly branches.

My last Elric cover assignment came in 1985, but I’ve been drawn back to the albino prince often over the years. 1/2

My music is a little slice of rusted Americana sung by a queer coyote person. I sing about what I see and experience as a queer man living in the South, both the beautiful and the ugly.

Seated high atop a slender concrete support, a woman sits hugging her knees. The hem of her white dress spills down from her perch. As seen through the tilted wreckage of stone slabs, her face is bathed in light. As she faces a sun unseen, long shadows fall behind her, cast by the rebar protruding from the nearest facade. The surface is chipped, pitted and worn through to expose the rusted skeleton beneath once smoothly constructed stone. In the immediate foreground, a key hangs looped over a short outcrop of rebar.

A drawing of a coyote in a forest. The trees are bare and the ground is littered with leaves. Mirrored on the top half of the drawing is the same coyote, but in a city instead of a forest.

Did they ever explain the in-universe reason the baby shoes were never worn? I know there are fan theories or whatever but did they ever actually address it in a spin-off? Or are the writers being lazy again πŸ™„

#portfolioday I’m brother rat, I make traditional work framed around esoteric, contemplative spiritual and homoerotic exploration. I’ve been drawing and painting since 2003. Main mediums are watercolor and graphite. I also write small ejaculatory poems and praise prose. All to the animals.

A portrait of Wave, a hearthian with 4 eyes, blue purple skin, and large ears. They are 3/4 turned toward the viewer, a bright neon green ring around their pupils which are only present in two of their four eyes: the two facing the viewer. These two eyes also are enclosed by an green turquoise overlaid ring of light almost resembling a sun or the iris of an eye. Wave looks disconcerted.

A front and back fullbody view of Wave. This Hearthian has blue skin with hints of purple, a spotted hairless scalp, long ears larger than their head. They wear brown and tan clothes and shoes, with hints of a light green almost a cool lime tone. An alternative to their name is listed above them written as Wave(ll). On the grey background their is a slight hint of the edge of a corona in a transparent light lime green

I decided to make an orchid terrarium today out of a plastic shoebox with some moss/fern/carnivorous plant companions. It felt good to create something. 🌱

just another betta and maybe a snail or two for now, this tank's pretty small. if it goes well I would like to start a larger one with maybe African dwarf frogs for propagating plants in, but I'm pretty limited on space at the moment.
