Sunsets are so pretty, but whatever you do, DON’T look directly at the sun!! Be safe: look at paintings of the sun instead. I am posting these for your personal eye health. You’re welcome!

Another last minute #artfight revenge I did on @sleepybears.bsky.social done in gouache and colored pencils 🌱

A cartoon drawing titled “Color is here!” It is colored in three shades of brown. An anthropomorphic wolf side hugs a television set, proclaiming, “It’s BROWN!” Onscreen, a brown bear says “You mustn’t call my real name. Lest you summon me.” In the background, a brown bear lurks, waiting.

There are still a -lot- of people on facebook. I know because a ton of them have made it to my blocklist 🚫🐻 It's like META sites incentivize drive by rudeness with their algorithm and I have long ago learned that blocking and forgetting is the best way to keep my peace #TheBearMinimum

Holly bear holds up a short list of indecipherable names. Explaining she gestures to it and says: 'This is my blocklist for Tumblr. As you can see it's very short, mostly bots...'

Holly bear holds up a longer list of indecipherable names. Explaining she looks to the viewer and says: 'This blocklist is for Bluesky, it's a lot longer but I'm more active there'

The perspective changes to a lower one as Holly unravels a scrolling list, her demeanor faux enthusiastic as she mentions: 'Then there's Facebook- I spend hardly any time there and yet..."

The view changes again to a much more distant one with the list rolling off the edge of the screen with it's length, so many indecipherable names on it. Holly looks concerned saying: 'Yeah... I'm not sure why it's like this either'

Picking mulberries ₊˚ʚ 🌱 There’s a large mulberry tree just outside of one of my windows and every summer so many birds and critters gather there to eat the berries together 💛

My family visited last week & it was a lot. My relationship with them is extremely complicated, but I think that was the first time that nothing had gone painful. I'm not really seen as who I am by them & having something that WAS me and something I valued looked at was...weird. #art #comic #artist

Page one of a multi panel comic. Panel one: anthro tiger character thinking to themselves, "One of my parents did something weird recently. I'm 39. I've been an artist a long...long time. Done it as a job for ten years. My parents do not ask me about my art. One of them a few years ago asked if I still made art. You know. My job. That one hurt."

Panel two: The anthro tiger character continues to think while staring at the sky, "For some strange reason I cannot fathom one of them actually asked me about my art. They said my other parent had told them my art was making money. They were impressed. It made money the whole time."

Page two of a multipanel comic. Panel one: the tiger anthro has a confused expression surrounded by question marks. They narrate, "I didn't get mad. I think I was too confused to register what was happening. So I showed them. The pewter. The mask patterns. The work files. The pyrography and carvings. They started asking questions. Showing them one thing prompted more questions. Often asking how I do it. So I answered those questions too. At one point they exclaimed in awe that the patterns had to be hundreds of hours of work. They are. None of it was new."

Panel two: a closeup of the tiger anthro's hand working on a cool skull drawing. They narrate, "It was really weird. I can remember being "warned" of calling demons with my art in middle school because I drew tiger skulls with blood tears. Cringe maybe, hardly demonic. I learned not to share and had no real interest in their approval anyway." A speech bubble from the tiger says, "Hee hee this is going to be so cool <3"

Panel three: The anthro tiger shrugs leaning upwards and thinks, "I have no idea what they thought I'd been doing these last 27 years. Decided it ultimately didn't matter."

Third and final page of a multipanel comic. Panel one: The tiger anthro sits upright and thinks, "It was nice. I didn't need it. I was put on this earth to make art whether it was seen or not."

Panel two: The anthro tiger character is running across grass and calling their two dogs, "You boys wanna go inside?". A final thought narration from the tiger is, "I didn't make all that stuff sitting around. If I wanna make more then I better get inside and get started."

Attack for @bearhybrid.art of their character Azra. A bull/dragon hybrid creature is so cool that I had to draw him. 😁 #artfight #teammystery #taurin #bull #dragon #hybrid

Still thoroughly overwhelmed by the amazing attacks this year too 😍 people are so kind!! #Artfight

Holly Bear ʕ = ᴥ =ʔ ☀️🔥@bearhybrid.art · last yr.

I don't get much art of my characters. Generally because I can only afford a tiny amount of commissions every year and gifts for no reason are understandably rare. So this has been my permanent mood during art fight! Feeling incredibly grateful~! 🎨🐻😭❤️ #TheBearMinimum

Husburr enters frame asking "Whatcha dooin?" to Holly bear who has her face in a big piece of paper. Her eyes are glittery and huge and she replies: "It's beautiful! I've been looking at this for 5 hours now" (a meme reference)

CW: Eating Disorder Fat shaming doesn't work 🙅🚫 somehow I hadn't posted this here yet! (1 of 2) #OldBearComics #TheBearMinimum

Text reads: I'd like to talk about fat shaming and how it doesn't work. I've been above average weight all my life and been shamed for it by peers, elders, family and strangers alike.
Art depicts: wicked shadowy figures loom around holly, judging and chastising her as she stands looking embarrased and trying to cover her belly.

Text reads: You know what it got me? A cripplingly poor self-image and eating disorder... I'd bet money that many people who experience fat shaming end up the same way.
Art depicts: Holly bear bent over with her head in the toilet couching as if she had just vomited.

Text reads: Sure a small portion of people might turn their anger and spite into motivation to loose weight. More likely they will internalize that disgust and turn it on themselves.
Art depicts: Holly lifting weights in front of a mirror, her reflection is a shadowy wicked version of herself who sneers and says 'Work harder Fatass' at which she gets angry and yells at it to 'Shut the fuck up!'

Text reads: What does it do for anyone, but give an outlet to your personal disgust, at having to see someone -you- don't find aesthetically pleasing? Mocking fat people for existing does nothing but hurt them and make you look cruel.
Art depicts: Holly bear glowering and making a gesture of frustration

The f are you

Illustration of two dragons looking at each other. One is at the top of a sword, the other on the bottom. At least one of them seem surprised to see another dragon. They are surrounded by nature, but it also seems to be an old battle field as old weapons and a skull suggest.

I can feel my art fight energy waning but I still have it in me to do a few more good revenges 💪💪💪

'Mouse's request' #Artfight for @chiendnorth.bsky.social on their reverse owlbear! 🐻🦉 #sharemyattack2026 #teamcomedy

A sketch of a bearowl. The stereotypical 'Owlbear' has been reveresed and their head is a bear's with owl bottom half and wings. The creature holds a mouse carefully on it's clawd hand, looking down with a gentle expression as the rodent gestures at them.
