Preview of buttons that will be available… idk if online at all. Maybe if anyone is interested I can send out extra stock. But will be sold at an art market this weekend.

All money from these button sales will be going to Warm Springs Water Coalition

[junipernoon]

I’m so excited!

Followers, mutuals, friends: who do you want to see melanin beamed? I’m thinking Afro-Indigenous Kade Bronson/West from the Wayward Children series bc I don’t understand how he’s not Black in the books.

bUT I kind of want to do a character with a visual already for fun / as a challenge. Making my own designs for book characters isn’t the same.

:3c

Do you WANT to? 👀

Because if so, for my birthday, I am hosting a day where we flood the dash with Black characters and Black edits of fan characters in art, writing, and any other creative way you can, called the

✊🏾Melanin Beam Challenge!✊🏾

On August 8th! If you don't know what I'm talking about, feel free to follow the link for more information! If you need inspiration or a better understanding of Black character design, I highly encourage you to follow some of the many talented Black creators on this app, and even my own blog!

Come join me and others as we celebrate Black character design, its versatility, and the possibilities!

Is there anything you my followers want to see that I could do to help raise funds?

beaded hat raffle? Stickers? Buttons? Really bad flute livestream? Sketch request live stream?

let me know what you think or if you want to help! I want to level up as an organizer but I do still fall into the American Individualism trap

Thank for reading, lots of love

[Image Description: a digital drawing of Cecil Palmer from Welcome to Nightvale. Cecil is a Native American man with tanned skin and long white hair parted on the right side. He is wearing heart-shaped sunglasses that are reflecting the desert sunset, and a brown jacket over a button-up shirt. His belt buckle, earrings, and bolo tie are also shaped like hearts. Cecil is depicted from the thighs up in a desert during sunset. The dunes and cacti behind him are entirely in shadow against the colorful, streaked sky. He looks to the right, his hair blown by the wind, as he pulls his jacket closer to his body. End Description.]

Long time followers know I’m a cranky brown woman and one of the things that makes me cranky is the use of American South West aesthetics without homage to the Indigenous and Black Americans and Mexicans that invented the aesthetic. My Cecil is Native (and your question should be “which tribe?!” But I haven’t decided yet. I’m pondering.) He started going gray when he was a teenager and had fully white hair by the time he was 25.

Also I love how this came out! The sky!! The plants!! The sunglasses B-)

Beautiful OC wedding... <3

First real illustration of 2024 omg.... it's okay I've just been really into beading.

Cyril is bi and Imelda is pan and trans. Happy End of Pride and beginning of Art Fight!

[junipernoon]

Here have a WIP Why don't I draw more? I should draw more!

I've been wanting to draw this forever. It's Cyril and Imelda's wedding picture. He's Japanese/Korean and wearing an obi/barong combo and she's Filipina and wearing a kimono and I just think it's sweet.

They have an autumn wedding.

Cyril's nephew is the ring bearer and their dogs are the flower girls.

This is the first time I'm drawing these two. So designs were pulled out of my butt.

[junipernoon]

Okay I love these earrings! I feel like I used every single skill I’ve learned beading so far to make them.

Death and Life (OC version of the Gustav Klimt painting)

This took forever to draw and its definitely the most amount of people I’ve ever drawn in one illustration.

[Image ID: digital illustration of Gustav Klimt’s Life and Death but with OPs original characters. The lone figure on the left (death) is Enkòzi Longarrow - a tan, dark haired, middle aged woman who is clutching a black iridescent feather in one hand and looking to the right with longing. She is covered by a dark blanket decorated with the night sky - there are stars and medicine wheels in white on dark blue and purple circles. She has one blue eye with two scars running over it and down to the corner of her mouth with a jagged hole were her cheek should be. Some of her teeth are visible through the hole. There is a golden floral halo circling her head.

To the right (life) is a mass of 14 people - all with their eyes closed and holding onto each other.

The background is a mottled gradient with brown on the left and green on the right. End ID.]

My roommate had a dream that Abijah Fowler was running for School Board office. I had to make it a reality.
