Not long until autumn is here once again. It's already starting to get colourful outside. Autumn is my favorite season to go for long forest walks, which I am looking forward to alot.

Wanted to draw myself running through a field with my fellow sunkahetankas. They’re drawn as ghostly spirits as a symbol that they are long, long gone from this world.
Decided to draw Orion again, my hesperocyon character. He's a very proud little canid. #paleoart #hesperocyon
I may not spend nearly as much time drawing as I used to these days, but I'm very glad I've managed to keep my artistic hobby alive. Working on my novels and artworks is such a great way of escaping reality, to just dive into my own fantasy worlds. I will never stop drawing, no matter how old I get.
Been taking long walks in the forest I grew up next to a lot more often recently. I love being surrounded by nature.
Will be checking out a house on Wednesday next week. Never done anything like this before, so I'm rather excited. One of my goals in life is to buy my own home, one that I can call my den.
was playing with some ink brushes and one reminded me a bit of the game Okami so I drew Espen🧡
There is something about african wild dogs that I find extremely difficult to draw. The fur pattern is so random and the dark face markings is super hard to capture. I don’t know if I'm the only one. I spent a long time on this one and I think I finally got it for the first time ever. Really proud
Decided to draw a new, updated reference sheet of my dhole sona. I'm much happier with this once.
I feel like the older I get, the more connected I feel to my canid side. Its a very comforting feeling, and I hope it continues like this.
Back to work again after a 3 week long vacation. These days went by so fast, it honestly feels like I was at work a just couple of days ago.
Been practising in imitating the sounds dholes make lately. Silly as it may sound, but it really helps me feel more connected to my theriotypes. Any other therians out there who enjoys doing this as well?
Another year has passed, and once again my birthday is here 🌹
Working on a new refsheet of my dhole sona. The first one looked kind of unfinished, plus I want it to look more similar to the refsheet of my other sona.
Oh to run through the fields and forests on four paws 🌟
I love sleeping to the sound of heavy rain and thunder. Not sure why I find so much comfort in listening to it, but it helps me sleep better than anything else I know.
Went to the Swedish Museum of Natural History today, and came back home with a big new floofy friend 🐺
I'm really considering getting a telescope someday. I absolutely love astronomy, and it would be quite the experience to see the stars and planets up there with my own eyes. One day... 🌌🔭
Just a few more days to go until my vacation. Got a few roadtrips planned with friends and family, so I'm really looking forward to this vacation.
My dhole side have been unusually active lately. It comes and goes every now and then and stays for a day or two, but lately it has been a lot more active than normal. Not sure why that is, but I certainly don't mind my whistly side sticking around for longer periods of time.
A couple of random practise doodles I did of my sona, Walter. I will perhaps continue on these someday.
Yesterday was World Dhole Day. For those who don't know, I'm also a dhole therian, but this side of me don't come out nearly as much as my main theriotype. My behaivor tends to alter ever so slightly depending on which one is "active", but my main species is easily the most shifty one for me.
Would you guys be interested in seeing random sketches and such? I don't work very often on my bigger projects, but I do sketch quite often, usually just random stuff.
