Mathias Ball+ﾟ*｡:ﾟ+ | illustrator open for work 🍊

Seems the news has broken out so I'm gonna take the time to voice that yes, it's true that the Odd1s team was retired.

Now more than ever I'd like y'all to please support my coworkers ❤️❤️ This came as a shock & they deserve ALL the support.

Here's a thread to all their work 🔽

Feel free to reach out if you want any help!!!

Super lovely work

2022: Up 118% from 2021
2023: Down 35% from 2022
2024: Down 35% from 2023

2025 is a write-off because the tariffs impacted the shop entirely 💀

Funny enough, I've been doing the opposite of u and trying to lean more into freelance since that money doesn't go back into expenses like merch does lmao

ok the studio sale is live!! birdfingers.storenvy.com

a variety of works dating between 2021-2026 available, some small, some big, all made with love, all made by hand. also some very significant works in here that i've made many print runs of in the past. examples below - thank you for ur support!

22/23 was such a strong year also for selling merch. I yearn for the earnings and projects of that year 🤘😔

Is the ocean too deep for fish as space is too big for stars?

Alt version which I also quite like :)

Happy #PokemonDay!! Here's some scribbles of the whole gang

Im with you there......... 🤘😔

Gen 10 looks so visually refreshing im so excited (biggest grievance with ZA was inability to leave the city RAHHHH)

Preview for my piece for Pokemon Day tomorrow!! Hoping to have it done sometime late afternoon :D

I know it’s difficult right now, but I insist that you seek and enjoy beautiful things, even if it seems frivolous or irresponsible in the face of overwhelming horror. I want you to feed yourself artistically, spiritually, and literally, because you can’t Do The Work when you’re starving.

Channelling the late 2000s, early 2010s. Maybe a little glomp as a little treat

Ah that makes sense, thanks!

Was it locked away or extremely uncommon? I'm only curious because I had this shiny Garchomp spawn at home last year, as far as I can tell there wasn't a corresponding event that boosted encounters. Could be wrong though!

Thank you!

Some more shots !

A digital illustration inspired by the National Park, Point Pelee in Ontario, Canada. The illustration depicts 5 of the ecosystems in the park, sand spit savannah, marsh, swamp forest, dry forest, and beach. In a colourful depiction, it features a myriad of barn swallows, monarch butterflies, and a sandhill crane.

Point Pelee piece that I made last year! The digital piece was printed and hung up on a banner 🌿

Thank you!!! In the back of my mind I wanted to make sure that despite the different palettes, they would all look part of a series when sitting together!!

YAY TY LAURA!!

This was a rough composite I made of 30(?)ish individual frames, you can see how the fast the tail was changing over the course of 30 minutes :)

Don't think I ever shared any pictures of C/2025 A6 from last year. Was looking through some photos last night and was feeling nostalgic. I love comets

Text that says “P4millionA" “we’re here because” over an underwater background featuring the P4A play button and heart mascots snorkeling amongst colorful fish.
