Becomes A Halo of Branching Horns

there I go stealing Poets of the Fall lyrics for titles just like ooooollllddddd times haha

I don't feel very good tonight. I haven't had the best evening.

...or past couple years but I learned how to have more ok days than bad after a bit and try fixing it.

Tonight I guess I was just holding in a lot of built up stress in a constantly stressed house, and someone pushed a button that just set off the anxiety and sad-sack-ery...and the best lesson I learned as a creative person throughout my life is that no matter what, create. It's my blood and breath and the best outlet I have for whatever is stuck inside my head.
Pen is the easiest thing for me to doodle in, everything comes out of it freely and I needed something that wouldn't fight me back, something that would yield to me for once.

I also hoped hopping into the Forest just to sit and maybe hang out with a few pals would do it's usual trick of relieving some stress (idk what chill-magickry I infused into Atiq when I made him but having him on a screen next to me is just so calming), BUT it wouldn't let me connect today, which prompted me to draw in my sketchbook. Because that'll show the network? I guess? lol

Also the sketchbook I was using has a weird, flat "step" at the spine instead of a curve, and tbh my eyes are super blurry so it was hard enough to edit, so sorry for the odd line in the middle, I tried haha

"Gretel" - Skeleton Articulation (Non-Tef)

It's not TEF-related but I spent 19 hours on it and I'm proud of the results. This is a domestic cat skeleton I purchased in pieces from the Museum of Osteology last fall. Finally got around to putting her together these past two days. Her name is Gretel.

Robin in the Forest

I did this sketch while in high school. My mom and dad draw and kept their pics hidden away in a closet. Mom's artistry came out on pillowcases, and curtains. She would take fabric paint and make ordinary cotton linen look extraordinary. Flowers, vines, and critters sometimes even a bug or two. My Dad drew in his teenage years and while as an Air Force sargeant. He drew a pic of mom when young and himself plus homes he wanted to make. So as a teenager when I showed an interest they bought me Jon Gangy. Still have the book. Other than Professor Emeritus Gary DeClue who over saw a fine arts building and created many programs for school districts no one else has published art I know of. The book like so many things in our family is our visible symbol that we too are artists mostly folk art but capable of so much more. I do have a son that does technical sketches originals that create some of the wonderful products we use today in smart phones.

Mentors for the robin which was sketched after watching many hours out my parents front door bird feeder Jon Gangy, my art teachers in Jr. High, and my mom and dad. Why I did not take art in high school? Simple. You were only allowed one elective and I did music (Dad plays guitar and the whole clan sang like a choir Baptist style) When I became a math teacher all my students where taught math art and geometry drawings which by the way is the basic foundation of art lines, squares, rectangles, spheres.

Atiq Nameplate

eh, I put enough effort into this I thought I'd give it it's own upload.

Eventually, I'd like this to be on Atiq's bio, but that's still giving me...issues >n> I'm gonna get those floating images to work gosh darnit

Until then, enjoy the very bling nameplate I made for him haha

Sage and Smoke.


* Thought I should draw up a rough design for Khalid. I'll make a bio for him soon.

Gave a Deer to an ex-dear

[img][/img]
With all the crass mean ways in this world especially now sometimes answered prayer comes in a form unexpected like cyber cathedrals in the most unlikely places. I drew a baby deer for an ex-deer of mine. The drawing lines full of angst on the human hands hint at the deep vortex of underlying emotion from such events in a person's life. The deer not anatomically correct still conveys the purpose. Do you throw away all that was good for the short time all that was bad caused by a lutheran church? Do you punish the victim over and over again or pound on the perpetrators of purveyors of unholy rings as the wagner cycle. The biggest and worst monsters are found in churches especially among the clergy. The picture tells what I chose to do and continue to do to those who claim one thing and actually follow another... and then put the most unholy people in authority ...tell me which fruit of the spirit do we have globally now....

Squidget Adoptables! :OPEN: 3/3

:::::::::::::Testing to see if it's okay to post designs that are not deer. I'm not sure if it's okay so please if it is not tell me so. Thank you guys <3:::::::::::::::::::::::::::













Hello again! I wanted to take more of a break for deer designs so I doodled up these cuties. I started with the blue. I wanted to do kind of a squidy cephalopody cute chibi-ish design and ended up with this little one. the other two followed soon after as they are quite fun to draw and color. I haven't fully fleshed out the species but I will post what I came up with :3

Squidget
not sure if there will be male or females. I just went androgynous for these three.
jelly like skin. slightly squishy and only sort of see-through.
small plump forked tongue. think gecko tongue.
vibrant markings on heads, varies between individuals.
eyes are always same colors as accent color.
some tailfins and "hair" also display striping or marking. but is less common.
three fingers and a thumb. four toes. webbed between all.
smooth nose tapering into a small blunt snout.


If you guys have any ideas to add on please let me know! :3 I will be adopting these three out for $4 each.

I will probably be drawing more of these lol they are fun.
