The Ex-President Whom Trump Plans to Pardon Flooded America With Cocaine
Trump says he is striking boats off Venezuela to stop drugs, mostly cocaine per reports.
Yet he just pardoned the Honduran ex-president who helped push more than 500 tons of cocaine into the U.S., took a $1 million bribe from El Chapo and bragged he would βstuff the drugs up the gringosβ noses.β

A jack-o-lantern on someoneβs porch steps. The pumpkin is old and starting to rot in such a way that it looks like an old man with no teeth, making a grumpy expression, with the top also falling in. This pumpkin has seen some stuff.
Anyway please enjoy this pumpkin I saw yesterday

When I was a kid, dad told me this,
"You are not learning to draw because you might become the greatest artist ever. But, during those minutes of solitude between work shifts, when you can sit down with a cup of coffee, you can draw on the napkin with a ballpoint pen. You can keep your soul alive."

A burning tree, rain, a growing tree - a sun.
It's #folktaleweek2025 day 3: RAIN
Having fun with this format conceptually. Had this thought at Milkwood this year. Does the sun recognize rains importance? Are they equals? Is the earth just thankful for their dance?

Illustration of an anthromorphic moon standing on a cloud, shouting 'HELLO!' at the sky. The moon has a bat friend who is flying next to it, looking confused. There is a smaller speech bubble with a 'HELLO!' coming from the sky. There are clouds with various things on them in the sky - a house, a horse, a cat on a chair, a car, a pine tree.

A weird bat character is using echo location on a gem that may or may not be magnifying it and calling to an old lady at the mouth of a cave.
It's day 2 of #folktaleweek2025 #folktaleweek: ECHO
I'm enjoying working under these constraints:
1. a triptych format (check it out on IG to see it broken up)
2. flat folk-inspired style
3. same color palette
4. tell a weird story
Having fun per usual!
