WOO!!! I'm excited to see what you have to say!

I do mean it!!! I mean it so much!!!

I think like, a couple months back, you must have had my art on a queue because every day I'd get a reblog with a note from you. It stood out to me. It's such a treat! Thank you so much!!!

Seeing you in the notes on my main pointing out what you like about another artists' work as well- you point out things I maybe hadn't noticed which makes me appreciate the work and thought people put into their art that much more. It's meaningful and really cool to see.

I appreciate you and the kind words and want you to know <3 <3 <3

Thank you for all the kind and insightful notes that you leave on my work and others! It always brightens my day! 💚❤💙💜

<3 <3 <3 Thank you!!!!! I create so little myself but I love seeing what others create. Your art always makes me smile! I find joy in trying to put into words what I like about a piece because I know most creators appreciate it, and goodness knows I sure do. There's a special kind of happiness in knowing you've made someone's day brighter.

I think about your art "Ribbonwood" a lot, by the way. It's one of my favorite pieces ever. The colors, the meaning, the pose… I love Hyrule so much and every time you draw him I love him a little more.

I sure hope you meant it when you said you like seeing my notes because before you sent this I discovered more of your art I hadn't reblogged, so you'll be seeing more of me soon haha 😅

Current WIP! Started 3 weekends ago, now powering into colour 4 of 10. Using a set of gradients shading from yellow through to purple.

We’re finished with the oranges now, and starting into the pinky hues of the clouds under a sunset sky via coral.

Pattern: Ribbonwood Blanket.

Strawberries are visiting Ribbonwood Cottage- I will admit time trying to make little strawberries- but after dropping a couple and watching them roll under the table I was done 😂🤣😇😍🍓🍓🍓🍓 it’s not like dropping a stapler or pencil at work 😂😳 it’s a tiny thing that rolls around and lands who knows where 🍓I did make miniature strawberry jam though. Just sayin’ #miniatureproblems #ribbonwoodcottage #strawberries #miniaturekitchen #dollhouse #dollhousefurniture #handmade #lovelylittleminiatures https://www.instagram.com/p/B9wX27NHK4v/?igshid=aux8kyczc2c5

Love your Wind as a humming bird comic. Any ideas for what the others would change into?? (I think Time as a kitten or something adorable would be funny)

Thank you! Wind as a hummingbird is such a wonderful idea and I have to thank and give credit to @/winkwonkblog for the prompt! I didn't really do Wind as a hummingbird justice when it came to like, drawing him well, but I had fun playing with the idea of it.

As for dark world forms! The fandom's done a great job exploring this and I really like a lot of (at least what I think are?) the more common takes! My preferences have been influenced by all the pieces of fanart, fic, and discussion I've seen - so many pieces that are tried, true, and tested! - so I don't have much to add! I like what the fandom's come up with and enjoy seeing new interpretations. It's a great big collaboration with a bunch of coexisting ideas and I love that.

These are going to be familiar lol (and I'll include some recs too, as one does!)

Time - I agree that Time being a cat or something cute and fuzzy would be funny because it would clash so much with how he's presented in the comic! Let him be something soft and unassuming so he can use it to his advantage for shenanigans! Like Legend though, I think he'd dislike being so fragile. He needs claws or something. To be honest, the hero of time being a golden wolf has never really felt right to me. I see general oot/mm Link as more of an an owl or fox. However, his characterization in LU makes it fit and I appreciate that. It's gotten me to come around to it some.

Twi - Wolfie, yeah

Wild - coyote or deer

Sky - Remlit, goose, or dove (Failure and Fortitude by sister_dear and this art by luwyv, and Untitled Goose Fic by theScrap_Witch)

Warriors - Wars as a weasel or ferret! Something with very nice and pretty fur and very sharp teeth. The thought of Legend holding him up and slinkying him around is amusing. (it's much-too-late'o'clock for me so I get to make up words)

Legend - Rabbit (read this if you haven't !!!-> Not half Pawd by SongMina, as well as Tiny Adventures by Lightning of Farosh)

Four - Hummingbird, mouse, or cat (All of @/chrispy-chimkin's LU Wing AU! Just look at Four!!! Look at him!!! &lt;3 &lt;;3 <3 See also Feline Fatale by Seeking7 and Usagisama68)

Wind - Seagull! (Again, Chris' wing au, but also @/layraket's creatures gang, and A Pear and a Portal by glowingjellyfishtreelights)

Hyrule - I'm not really sure! My joke answer is an okapi. Maybe a badger! idk! he's a dragonfly-winged fairy idk about an animal form for him. A coyote or gray fox, a brown-colored medium sized bird, something like that. Sorry I don't have the most inspired answers haha. I imagine Hyrule's Hyrule (in Zelda 1) as california chaparral so I think he'd be some kind of creature that lives there. I can tell you what kind of tree he'd be!!! Hyrule would be a ribbonwood tree (aka redshanks)! Ribbonwood bounces back quickly after wildfires, with the leaves sprouting again even after being all burned off. The bark that falls away from the tree comes off in strips or "ribbons" that are soft but scratchy and brittle when dried out. that give the tree a kind of whipsy appearance. It's wild and wiggly (I'm all out of adjectives at the moment) and very much a part of the landscape, a piece that ties it all together. The smooth bark underneath is a deep red and cool to the touch. The earthy red and vivid yellowing-green color is suiting. If you cup the leaves in your hands and breathe on them they release a soft rain-like smell. I'm just really passionate about Hyrule and this tree and ecosystem ahsfdhas do you see the low shrubs and parched dirt and the scrambling rocks and the mountains!!! the dry and hot and high altitude and dense shrubbery impassable to find hidden paths through! so much green no stranger to fire!!!!

the san jacinto chaparral in september... the ribbonwoods are blooming and it gives the palette of fall. still have that high desert evergreen as ever, though.

Plant of the Day

Wednesday 8 July 2020

The magical white flowers of Hoheria glabrata (ribbon tree, ribbonwood) are covering the branches with a summer display. This deciduous woody perennial from New Zealand needs a sunny, sheltered location, this one was in a border by a wall. The plant normally forms a large, multi-stemmed specimen and is one of the few deciduous trees native to New Zealand.
