🫂 It is okay to be a presence in people’s lives. I think you’re a delight, and I hope all that’s been weighing on you lessens soon

Drawing of a grey long-eared bat at rest on a pale chartreuse yellow background. It has a fluffy body with a light underside, dark wings, and large ears that roughly double its size.

Fanart for Avatar: The Last Airbender. Illustration of a Fire Nation garden pond covered in clusters of lily pads; a pair of turtleducks swim across its surface. In the back is a small wooden bridge, and on a rock island in the water is a squat stone lantern. The sky is reflected on the surface of the water near the bottom of the composition.

A pair of white Haida Ermines, with black tipped tails acting as calligraphy brushes. One is leaping while holding a piece of parchment in its mouth, and the other is posed, looking back with an open mouth (somewhat smiling).
A pair of happy looking stripped pole cats (black underbelly, with cream/white colored stripes along the back to the tip of their tails, and also a few cream/white spots around the eyes), posed in a sort of leaping position, against an African Savannah type background of oranges and yellows. Behind the pole cats tails are a few swirls of smoke.
Some silly noodle fluffs for the Mustelizine! I had some fun doing pieces for the Haida Ermine and the Striped Pole Cat >:3c

A snowflake moray winding upward in a teal ocean, its body resting gently on a multicolored rocky seafloor. The piece is kept simple to showcase the intricate black and white patterning and yellow spots along the moray's body.

A digital painting of a turkey vulture, sitting in perfect profile on a tree branch. the branch is covered in lichen and moss, and a few sparse but bright green leaves. the image is made up of pinks, yellows, and browns, with some green and blue. all objects are depicted as polygons and lines, rather than curved.
This month's #BirdWhisperer is the turkey vulture! He looks cold, or maybe I'm just projecting lol

llustration of two dark brown Russian sables in a forest of pine and birch trees. One sable sits on a fallen tree branch and the other leaps down from above. There is a stylized border around the scene with patterns of pine trees and sables.
So happy to finally share this work from February! 🌲🌿 My sable piece for Mustelizine mustelizine.itch.io/mustelizine

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.
