A drawing of a fowldyr character that belongs to Eraili
Fowldyr are a closed species created by Stasanie (me)

A drawing of a winged deer-like creature with a pelt in shades of cream, gold, and brown. His wings are lined with jade coloured feathers with gilded edges. Around his neck is a thick green rope from which many jade beads and tassels hang. He stands in a shallow pond with red lily pads scattered across the surface. Swaying red willow branches streak across the canvas.

Danny & Ross commissioned this scene depicting a tender moment between their dragons - a pothos inspired dragon and a beetle inspired dragon. The larger dragon gently caresses her lady in waiting, putting weight on the leaf to draw her closer.

A commission for bardybirdy featuring the OC Errai. A drawing of a dragon posed against a starry blue night sky. The dragon is mostly dark shades of blue and purple with golden accents. She has large feathered wings and a curved crystal horn. Her neck curls around a comet, her golden claws gently caressing the comet's tail. The radiant light of the comet casts serpentine rays that mimic the stylized flow of her mane.

A digital drawing of a pink deer in a stylized forest scene. The grass is glowing shades of yellow, orange, and soft reds. The bushes in the distance are blue, and the night sky is speckled with stars. A pink fawn looks curiously at a glowing star that has fallen from the sky.

It is so weird when younger people think that getting older means ceasing social participation

This is also why so many of you fear aging. You think that you will be forced away from life and society

Friendly NPC energy strikes again:
- party girls on ebikes asked for directions and rang their bells in thanks
- three mildly intoxicated early 20-somethings sitting on the footpath home asked for us to join their group hug; one apologised for being in tears, cried more when I offered her tissues

A digital painting a man with long white hair riding on a horse through a lake. Two more horses are behind him, following him. The lake itself seems to be in the middle of a forest with the sunlight tinting parts of it in a golden hue. The drawing is done in a very painterly style.
On the top is the text "Artshare. Thank you for 250 followers."

If you're doomscrolling, guess what? So far there are 51 kākāpō chicks hatched and thriving this season, the same number of birds as we had in TOTAL in the 90s! Only one chick has died and there are still fertile eggs waiting to hatch!

If Iran killed 140+ girls in a school bombing in a million years does anyone think this wouldn’t be a front page story in NYT? Does anyone think this would be an A11 story? Does anyone think they would be so faux anal retentive about attributing responsibility for five days? Obviously not.

Three covers of my novel MASSIF. The UK and Australian ones have a photo-realistic approach, the US one is illustrative. All feature a seated figure looking up at a mountain range ascending into space. US cover illustration by Matt Griffon. UK cover by blacksheep.

Cover reveal time!
An adult science fiction novel tinged with horror, about the crew of a small warship in a relatively near future where humans hitch rides to the stars on sentient star-faring mountain ranges called Massifs.
Can be pre-ordered at the usual places, *please* do so. Thank you.

watercolor painting of Mosslax, a new form of the Pokemon Snorlax all covered in moss. He is snoozing in a little forest area, light is coming through the leaves above him. A Paras and some Morelulls are sitting around and on him. Everyone looks very peaceful.

Ever since they revealed Mosslax I wanted to draw him!
So here he is.

if you were to write a prophecy of the future back in 2000 that "in 2026, President Donald John Trump has launched a war on Iran with Israel after previously attempting a coup to stay in power in 2020", people would think you've gone insane

The very existence of commercially available glasses with Internet-connected cameras sold by Meta, a company built entirely on hiding the costs of services in negative privacy externalities, is an indictment of U.S. tech law and policy. This is an unfixable product from a fundamentally bad company.

Second panel the white cat answered with a silly face "My best?"

It's easy to make books appeal to men.

Just hit 18k! Thank you for all the support 🖤🖤

Thinking of hosting a little art share and maybe a print giveaway?

Is this enticing/of interest to anyone?

Francie: can I snuggle you and get white fur all over your black turtleneck?

an illustration to commemorate reaching 10k followers on bluesky

a warm-toned tiefling woman (Niamh) is sitting leaning forward, legs crossed and her hand is resting on the pulled up knee. her hair is long reddish brown, unrealistically long and stylized  with fun patterns, falling on her back, behind and again around her body on the right edge. she's looking at the viewer, red eyes with black sclera and a reflective white center of the iris.
behind her there's text that reads "10k, thank you!"

THANK YOU for the 10k follows! What the heck!

It's absolutely insane to see that number - a milestone I didn't expect to reach this soon!!

I'm currently fighting a big art block but I wanted to draw a little something for the occasion! Thanks for hanging around.❤️
