currently sick

dreamed that me and two girls that I went to middle school with were recording a song, reading the lyrics from a dark blue book with glowing white letters. don't remember the lyrics.

dreamed that there was a huge block party going on in my neighborhood, with tents set up all over and one of those janky ferris wheels. I decided that I wanted a milkshake and a burger. Every restaurant that I went to was getting held up by a delusional man with a shotgun. Every single one. Same guy, too. I'd leave and go to the next restaurant and he'd have moved on to hold that store up. I just really wanted a milkshake.

Part of some sort of giant videogame world. Built like one of those marble tunnel toys. Riding the marble down a spiral slide. Giant monster crushing the marble tunnel world. Water is rising faster.

I keep sleeping through the curtains falling out of the window frame and on top of me.

Hello dear.. Please don't skip my message My name is Mohammed, from the afflicted and destroyed Gaza Strip, where life has become impossible and tragic, and where we see death and pain every moment and every day. Our children suffer from hunger, pain, deprivation and lack of medicine. The war deprived them of playing, school, and their most basic rights. They are now suffering from woes and tragedies. 😭😭 During the war, my wife gave birth to a child and I could not find any milk for him Our conditions are tragic, and we live in a shelter that lacks the minimum requirements for life and is plagued by diseases and epidemics Please help me save my children from the hell of the Gaza Strip and provide them with a decent life 😔 Your assistance, no matter how simple, is enough to ease the burden on us and help us overcome our crisis. Please sympathize with me and donate to me or contribute to sharing the campaign and spreading it widely

please give if you can and share

Pretty Alien

Ok, so this is going to be the first in a series of pieces. And it has a backstory.

I was working the night shift and it was totally dead and I was super bored and I got to thinking... technically speaking, Sailor Moon is an alien. She's from the moon. So why does she look like a human?

And then I thought, maybe her Sailor Scout uniform is actually what she looks like, but in attempting to describe Sailor Moon's alien physiology, eye-witness accounts were mistaken for a description of a costume, not an actual body.

So, Sailor Moon's pigtails, bangs, and the little whiskers that I've given her, aren't hair. They're sensory organs, like antennae. The red "gems" described in her uniform are actually poison glands, which are brightly colored to gain the attention of predators. When subject to pressure, they secrete a poisonous liquid, kinda like Cane Toads. The "collar" of the costume is actually a wattle that Usagi's species uses in mating displays. It's inflatable!

Kinda like this:

As for the bunny nose and upper lip... Well... her name is Usagi.

The kanji at the top of the image is bi (pretty) uchuu (extraterrestrial) jin (person) and the katakana at the bottom is the phonetic spelling of Sailor Moon.

I'm sure that Kyozuka sensei would be pleased to see that I'm keeping up my calligraphy skills, all these years after her classes.

If anyone with a better grasp of japanese than me has any corrections, I'm happy to hear them.

Nerd rant over.

Aaah! My first risograph printed collection of portraits!

Slap Your Cheeks for Color -- $12.50

A collection of 16 portraits. Due to the nature of risograph printing, each print is slightly different, making each zine a unique art piece.

This is the first in a trilogy that I hope to print and take to the Seattle Short Run. Orders of this collection help fund printing for the others!

Printing services by the wonderful Colour Code Printing, who did a bang up job and were incredibly helpful with talking me through formatting.

I’m one million years behind the times and only just started playing Dragon Age: Origins.

Here is my Dalish Grey Warden, Nissim.

I haven’t *seriously* used color pencils since about middle school, so this is an interesting learning curve.
