Matcha 🔜 F2 DD

Commission for dragsivan

I did! I had so much fun both at the table and after hours! :D It was great seeing so many amazing people 💖 Always a great time!

I had such a blast @fursquared.bsky.social

Thank you @matchapeaches.bsky.social for one of my favorite on-site sketches ever!!

It was wonderful to sketch you once again XD I hope you had a wonderful renfur²!

What do you get when you mix a wolf, a husky, a photographer, and a love for urban cyber-punk-ish retro-futuristic aesthetic? 

A cool canine and the perfect inspo for a great badge!

In this time of ugliness, here, something beautiful. Creation of @matchapeaches.bsky.social

I love your brushwork and handling of light and color so much 🤩

I'm at #anthronorthwest, come say hi if you're around!

I got curious and peeked at your profile 😊 it looks awesome! I've been making a point to collect more art hooks and zines so I'll have to watch out lol

I sort of went through something Different but similar. In the wake of something that can generate endless milquetoast "content", I feel it's important to focus on finding your voice/self in the process and distinguish it from just content. I haven't quite figured it all out yet but I believe in us!

I love seeing people's growth throughout their comics. Sometimes you can look at the first and recent pages and really see how the artist grew with it and how they refined their skill during.

I bet your gonna knock it out of the park this year!

Very cool! I read your lore and it sounds like such an interesting world your building out. Very mysterious

I'm trying to keep posting new art everyday to make my drawing speed even quicker through practice. Ive also been lore posting recently, such as this one from today:

I think you are well on your way! I'll be happy to see more this year!

Thanks for this sharing opportunity!

My goal for the new year is to create more realistic and detailed creature art, like the last dragon here, as opposed to less detailed designs like the other two.

I also want to sprinkle some character concept art in among the new creatures.

A little ceramic vase is being held in a hand. On the vase is primary color squares with fruits painted in them. The top rim of the vase is also blue.

I'm hoping to continue learning ceramics!! Its been such a joy to experience and I hope this can lead me to new opportunities in the future like maybe even trying out some local events to sell some of my pottery! A big future dream is who knows, maybe starting my own studio with friends hehe 🙈🙈

As if we haven't spoken about it but I'm excited for ceramics! I really can't wait to see more at fursquared if you bring them. Your pivot towards hand crafted goods has already been so inspiring to me.

That is an amazing undertaking but I know you can do it! That's really exciting though. What kind of book will it be?

Ah yes, the neverending wips. I have so many open side projects rn it's ridiculous and I will probably sprout like 3 more before January. Lol Congrats on finishing your gift art! I bet you're gonna surprise yourself :D

easily one of the best parts of having regular commission clients is when I've gotten to know their tastes and rub my hands and cackle because I've just hit a *really* good idea for their project >:3

Do any of you out there on Bsky have any creative goals for the new year? I'd love to see what everyone is up to or just thinking about.

You can even use this as an opportunity to share your work if you'd like! I'd love to see!

❄️Happy Winter Solstice! ❄️

And he said, "If everyone likes it, it means it's mainstream. It means it's conventional. It means it's already pre-digested for people to like it. And I don't want that. I want people to end up liking things they didn't like when they first encountered it, because that's where you really end up loving something."

Keep thinking about this term "pre-digested" that Kojima used to describe art that's instantly gratifying. And how it's better when people grow to love something instead.

I've gravitated, as player and designer, toward the latter, but that term "pre-digested" is new and feels very strong.

Lol getting it hung up is the hardest part. I have a portfolio book for print overflow now, myself. These ones have a lot of options being digital. But hopefully I'll even more options next time your ready. Ive been trying to do more traditional work and sketchbook come and stuff.

I really love creating these immersive badges, something that captures something about the character or their lore. I have about 8 more from the past half-year that need posting, and more to come from MFF! I'm very excited for them :D

I have several more artworks to post still to catch up XD. I've probably lost the order but this stunning green dragon was so fun to make!

Found this old sketch I did of Shard from the summer king chronicles from @authorjessowen.bsky.social

It's from 2020 maybe (?)
If I ever have the time I'd love to make a digital rework

Oh yeah! I think I saw an excerpt or documentary or read something about some of them that work for Pantone and other color companies. Unfortunately, I just have a perma-film grain filter XD. Super jelly of Tetrachromates and Mantis Shrimp tho lol
