health-related post I debated posting about this given my general lack of activity here, but I guess it helps me to voice my thoughts into ether when it is something significant in my life. I had a salpingectomy (sterilization) last thursday, which is something I've wanted for a very long time --

yesterday we drove out of the city to see the Perseid meteor shower. The light pollution makes it hard but we were able to see a few 'w' Two days prior we saw a REALLY bright one and it startled me lol. It felt bittersweet going back to the city but all the more reason I will cherish that evening

Look at this Nasty Little Rabbit! This bunny looks friendly and fun but it is actually the mastermind behind a coordinated attack on Beorn's carrots, known in history books as the battle of five rabbits. It was very nasty business. (for MtG: the Hobbit, AD: Colin Boyer.)

some pictures I took at a strawberry farm and I just want to take a moment to geek out at the lighting. Look at that gorgeous hot red/pink subsurface scattering (picture 1) and the lovely ambient sky light reflecting in the shadows. (feel free to use these photos as studies)

I swear I never learn my lesson. Taking a quick shitty phone selfie > spending 30+ minutes on pinterest/internet trying to find just the right hand pose reference EVERY. TIME.

I'm sorry Cool People of Bluesky (TM), I'm trying to be more active on social media and especially here but I've had a lot of work in the past few months and not enough bandwidth left for social media... but I have so much new art to share! As an apology here's a little sketch from 5 months ago ^^

I saw a disclaimer in an ebook the other day that said, 'This book is 100% human generated. I'd rather write a story that might have lumpy bits than generate a soulless, passionless, piece of crap." I'm thinking of adding something like that to my next book if I ever get around to writing it.
