A poster with a green and white background (art by Calcifer Poolar) reads "Fabulist Art Wanted" with the call for applications in black text.

Artist wanted! In conjunction with @tricon-hfx.bsky.social this May, we're looking to exhibit a Nova Scotia artist who works with fabulist, speculative, or otherwise fanciful themes!

If you are interested, please email tridenthalifax@eastlink.ca with an introduction & link to your work.

The first time I witnessed someone get abducted was Sunday, December 14th, 2025. ICE left behind his wife and an infant child in the car. The family was going to church. "We pulled over, but then they told us they would take us too if we did anything. We have our own baby in the back seat." None of us knew what to do. No one tells you how useless you feel when someone is taken.

The next abduction I witnessed was a couple weeks later. Both times, I hadn't even gotten out of bed yet when I heard the whistles. I was better at responding the second time. There's not a lot you can do except make noise and be annoying. I'm good at being annoying. At this point, being annoying is liable to get you shot or tear gassed or blinded. It is what it is.

Focusing on anything but the occupation has been difficult. That's what I've come to call it now--an occupation. What else do you call a bunch of soldier bullies driving around the streets trying to find people to kidnap? I try to be more present for my friends and neighbors. "Hey, do you have some time to drop off some donations this weekend?" "Yeah, I'll do a Costco run!" "I've got some blankets and coats to donate." "I can come pick them up tomorrow! You guys need anything from the store?"

"Is anyone available to watch the bus stop?" "I can!" [An image of two people at a bus stop. They're both wearing whistles.] A news article clipping: ICE detains 4 Colombia Heights students, including 5- and 10-year-olds sent to Texas. Colombia Heights Public Schools leaders addressed the ICE surge into the district, saying the community is "shattered." And they say they're "catching criminals." Sure.

Two people in winter coats stand in front of a shop in early morning light. One is opening the door and tucking keys in a pocket. The other holds a pair of coffee cups. their breath and the coffee cups send puffs of steam into the cold air.

The cold early-morning feeling when the sun starts peeking out.😌

The cover of the graphic novel Crumbs. Two characters stand facing each other, smiling. One carries a broom upside-down; the other hides floating cakes behind his back.

A Halloween-themed illustration of two costumed characters meeting in midair for a dance in front of skeletal trees and a large orange moon. One wears bat wings and a mask, while the other carries a pumpkin head.

A digital pencil illustration of two characters chatting at a picnic shelter at the beach. On the table between them is a cooler. One has a towel over his shoulders and holds a cup of soda. The other is holding her hair down in the breeze and has taken a bite of her sandwich.

An ilustration of two characters in tall dune grass at night, silhouetted by light. The mood is hopeful and vaguely mysterious. The background is bisected by a curtain of light pushed back by the girl in the foreground, while the other character peeks out. An open toolbox lies on the ground in front of her and she holds a pair of open scissors in her hand.

Happy #PortfolioDay! I'm Danie Stirling and I do graphic novels (and also cherish a little wish to be asked to do a few B&W spot illustrations someday).

a stylized illustration of the clock tower in the middle of Mont Tremblant, QC with the ski hill in the background and a couple of people carrying a snowboard and skis trudging through the snow.

my hand holding a sticker that looks like a brightly-coloured "no parking anytime" sign vandalized to read "NO AI ANYTIME" instead

a bright, simple illustration of a winter snow-covered field in the prairies. The sky is a bright blue with big fluffy clouds on the horizon. Tufts of dead brown grass poke through the snow, and a crescent moon sit up high in the sky. A long freight train with brightly coloured cars snakes its way about two thirds of the way across the horizon, far in the distance

power lines going down a back lane, silhouetted against a pink and purple twilight sky. the trees and houses along the lane are all cast in blue shadow. the colours are laid out in a way that suggests the bi flag. very bisexual lighting. a street lamp glows, and some birds flying in the distance.

Heyoooo #PortfolioDay!

I’m Alex, a Canadian illustrator/cartoonist on the prairies. Mostly focusing on tabling/print sales and taking on mural work at this time while I finish my first graphic novel!! #art

Hiveworks artists have dealt with SO much over years of mismanagement, and they need your support. There's a "How You Can Help" tab of their statement that calls for supporting affected Hiveworks artists, spreading the word, and perhaps, most importantly - reducing speculation!

An illustration featuring assorted graphic novel panels spliced together in four columns. The first two each show two characters looking directly at the viewer. The third shows flowers at the base of a cliff. The fourth is a character seated in the shade of large leaves, chirping bent musical notes.

Figuratively sharpening my 2026 pencils, stopped, tallied last year's work. Turns out I made a lot of comics in 2025-- 20 new pages of Small Wonders, finalized ~240 pages of [graphic novel], thumbnailed ~80 pages of [other graphic novel project].😳 Whaaaaattttt

a grid of 9 images with a photo of myself in the middle surrounded by illustrations I've done throughout the year. 4 of them are from my webcomic, Ash in the Wind, and the other 4 are personal pieces formatted for risograph print.

Another year, another #ArtvsArtist !

I took a some risograph and screenprinting workshops throughout the year which was a great medium for exploring more personal art with mature themes.

2026 is going to be a exciting year with huge changes for me. Thanks for following along!

#ArtvsArtist2025

Cheers to everyone making my Bluesky scrolling delightful today with the torrent of end-of-year art🥹

Comics friends! I'm in search of an agent, but I'm struggling to find anyone who's familiar with graphic novels and also open for submissions.

I'll start the search fresh in the new year when people are more likely to be reopening, but I'd love to hear if anyone has a lead! Thanks! :^)

Got my ticket! Excited to visit Halifax in May~ 😊
