✨ Hand in hand, we’ll follow the yellow brick road together. ✨

New design coming in 2026, since it’s never too early for Pride! This Friends of Dorothy design will be available as a sticker hopefully soon. I’m really happy with how this design came out.

2025 has been quite a learning year for me, but I wouldn’t change how it went because I have learned so much from the experiences from this year.

I appreciate everyone who has been supportive of my mom and I at these events. You truly make this magical for us.

I didn’t really post much art this year, despite making a bit for my art shop. I keep forgetting that social media is very much a thing to do after making a piece. Gotta try to do better with that.

I doodled this in a new sketchbook using colored pencil, alcohol markers, acrylic marker, and pen.

✨🔮 It’s finally here! 🔮✨

I had ordered an Art Vending Machine and it arrived today. I was really excited to open it up and see how it came out. I was a little worried when I saw how UPS delivered the box but everything was fine and safe inside.

Panel 1: A pink-cloak-clad RPG healer with a cross staff is looking to her right. She says "DPS, how are you doing??"
Panel 2: The DPS, a character with yellow crosshair eyes, long dark purple gloves and blue boots, and a katana, is keeled over, leaning on one knee. A little under half of his health bar is gone and he is bleeding a bit from his mouth. He responds "Not great. One of the attacks skimmed me."
Panel 3: The healer turns her head to look to her left. She says "Tank, how about you??"
Panel 4: The purple-clad tank, his face and head cloaked in shadow, is smiling wide through the shadow and giving a thumbs up. His legs are rooted to the ground with thick vines, parts of him are on fire, electricity is running along his body, and a foul miasma eminates from him. He his only a smidge of health left, and a bit of shield. Around him are status effects: Poisoned, Paralyzed, Frightened, Burned, Cold, Cursed.

One of my more recent digital pieces was a starting soon screen for @taerufluff.bsky.social’s Twitch streams.

I had added a couple of cameos in the background of the arcade scene that they had wanted. :)

Footage of our booth from our last event in June, “Pride in the Alley” which took place next to Pride at the Beach in Oceanside.

We will have a similar set up at San Diego Pride this month and are excited to take part in more Pride events year round! :)

We don’t currently have any other events scheduled for this month. :) I’m working on some designs and products for Pride month since I have two events (June + July) for that.

Hoping to be able to post finished product soon!

And I was scared that he would somehow change the movie by pointing at the Star Trek movie. So I had to make sure the “button” was pressed for the movie posted.

Wild stuff. >_>; 2/2

As a young child some reason I believed that the posters at the movie theaters were like buttons, and you had to push or point at the movie you were going to see otherwise it could be something else.

Example: My dad wanted to see a Star Trek movie but I wanted to watch Hunchback of Notre Dame. 1/2

The Muppets holds a special place in my heart and many others. These silly puppets brought a lot of inspiration back to me when I was feeling at my lowest when it came to pursuing my art as my dream career.

Congratulations to the Muppets for 70 years of being the creative weirdos they are and bringing joy to audiences.
