hey guys. i am cooking stuff for this boy

Val is honestly one of my favorite OCs of all time

Illustration: Darkly lit cultrunner VALENCIA, squatting and looking directly at the viewer. She is a cyberpunk-esque OC with mildly vampiric visual traits such as pointed ears and claws.

you stumble upon this rogue cultrunner in a dark alley, wyd?

i bought a mead cocktail in a heart shaped bottle at the ren faire today and all i can think about are character themed love potions

HONEYBUN MY BELOVED!!!!!!

I'm deliberating whether I should do OC rambles on here or on my other account... big moves in Valencia's game. her reference from nov '24 is already outdated and inaccurate........ plus all her ships are sinking and it's actually so dramatic.

so i finished this #art piece but i'm iffy about posting it due to self harm cw and how deeply personal it is. i don't think i can post on kofi and i don't really want to post the full ver here but... i'm so proud of how this came out esp after a month of art block 😭

IT'S TRUE I should've asked my friend to lend me stuff first tbh. I wish there was something out there for folks who cycle through hobbies quickly, like "yesterday i was knitting but I wanna do ceramics now, let me swap out stuff so i can ceramic and someone else can knit"

in a perfect world....

That's so real I hear you!! I also usually drop hobbies and I'm hoping knitting sticks for me because I might've bought too much yarn akjshdkjahd BUT WE'RE DOIN IT LIVE

today's mission: remake my pinned

Not to enable you buuuut.... I just picked up knitting since I'm having a horrid bout of art block, and it's actually been really healing feeling like I can create something when drawing isn't working out for me!

winds are shifting in my life and i might need to start rebuilding my following, hard... i refuse to go back to insta but years of building a 1k following is something i'm still mourning

i finished this but i'm admittedly a little scared to post it bc it's so personal lol

nothing is free. energy in = energy out. anyone selling you a shortcut technology with massive benefits has hidden the true cost somewhere: wage theft, ip theft, invasive data collection, environmental destruction.

technology provides incredible advances but infinite growth has infinite costs

I wake up in the morning. I sit at my computer. The internet screams at me that the world is on fire. I am overwhelmed by the deluge of bad news and faceplant in front of the computer.

I would like this comic I drew in 2017 to stop being relevant pleeeaaaaase
