I made this watercolor painting of a mountain quail as part of my artist residency on Volcan Mountain here in San Diego county. I was sitting by a waterfall and I heard flapping, looked over, saw this guy. First I've ever seen! Get this original here: www.thornwolf.com/shop/p/mount... #BSNM #Birdsky

Working working working so I can go on vacation and unplug for a few days. Vacation just means working harder the week(s) prior and making yourself insane so that the sudden pause feels like relief in comparison.

Today I got a loan offer from one of my financial apps for $20 that I can "pay off over time". If that's any indicator of the general state of things IDK what is.

Me: my pinkie hurts Also me: this is it, this is the end of art for me, they’re gonna have to amputate my hand I’m finished (I’m probably gripping my pen too tight and/or holding my massive freaking phone in my tiny little paws too long)

New Logo! Mer-Cantile is a soon-to-launch online mermaiding supply store. I had a lot of fun with this one! In another world if I didn't choose furry I would have gotten into mermaiding. I made my own tail out of bathingsuit material as a kid that I could wear with my swim fins in the pool 🧜‍♀️

Ray Bradbury’s 1950 story, “There Will Come Soft Rains”, starts with a household AI reminding its owners of their appointments. But nobody is listening; they have all been killed in a nuclear war.

Since the Halloween creep is getting earlier and earlier this year, here's some Haunted Mansion art I did at the beginning of this year.

Commission for Natasha of her polar bear character dressed as a maid from Disney's Haunted Mansion. This is my first completed art of 2026! #FurryArt

A commercial asked me if I’m “chickenmaxxing” and I think the answer is…no? Do I want to be?

Gestural Poppies and Lupine has SOLD! Mountain Quail is the last piece left for sale to benefit the Volcan Mountain Foundation. #BirdSky #SciArt #watercolor #BSNM #painting #birds

When I do art for park signage I almost never find out if/when/where it's been installed. Imagine my delight when I saw this photo on Yelp confirming its installation (and that it's actively being pooped on by the feathered residents). Yay! I want to do more work like this plz hire me! #SanDiego

Heads up for folks wanting to know how I approach watercolor and colored pencil, I do have a tutorial already, just $3!

Nicole Dornsife | Thornwolf@thornwolf.com · last wk.

The good news is I have made a tutorial that covers the basics of my method already! But I will look into something that's more specific to certain textures. www.thornwolf.com/shop/p/water...

I have also noticed a wild fluctuation in reporting of my earnings which makes it difficult to truly know what is what. If you support me or any other creator on Patreon, please make sure you’re subscribed through the website not iOS

Nate Bethea@inthesedeserts.bsky.social · 6d ago

Apple charges people ~20% more than the Patreon list price and they keep the difference for themselves. They also hold the proceeds of iOS app sales for 75 days, making it impossible for creators to accurately predict earnings. They basically inserted themselves in order to rip *more* people off

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

As a heads up, I'm probably going to pull a couple of these for personal use. I'll give it til the end of this week, so if there's any you're considering, now's a good time! Pledging $1 gets you access to claim, I can hold for max 30 days.

That shadowy place way out there? That is beyond our borders. You must never go there. That is the Big Boy graveyard.

Just asking casually I don't have any ready photos of the collection yet but does anyone know where the best place to resell old furry art would be? Is there a preferred auction/resale site? Originals from greymuzzles/fandom founders, comics, that sort of thing. TIA!
