Some People In Her Order Get Bears Or Wolves As Their Spirit Bonds. She Got A Moth.... Because She Didn't

A woman in green cargo pants with a blue belt and a black tank top stands with her back to the camera. Over her shoulder, she holds a katana with feathers, bones, and herbs dangling from the end of the hilt. Slash, burn, and bite scars litter her arms and face. Her head is shaved around the sides but just long enough for a 2 inch blond pony tail. At the base of her neck, a blue tattoo of a death's head hawk moth fluoresces. From the tip of her blade, a larger replica rises and hovers above her head. She stares back at the camera with eyes the color of the moth. The background is a lurid warm to cool purple brushstroke gradient.

Some people in her order get bears or wolves as their spirit bonds. She got a moth.... because she didn't need any extra strength.

About 70 Days Ago I Commented On @astro-axolotl 's Watercolour Snail Saying I Wish I Could Get The Watercolours

About 70 days ago I commented on @astro-axolotl 's watercolour snail saying I wish I could get the watercolours out and paint a snail myself. I haven't painted in months. I haven't posted art here in maybe a year. I haven't painted a snail ever.

Here's my snail

A tea shop in the early morning light with pinkish tile floors and aquamarine walls. Along the left wall, there's a small wood table with two brass samovars and a few paper sample cups. Next to it, a bookshelf filled with brass tea containers. A set of three wooden counters arranged in a square with an open side on the left. Behind it, A purple curtain shuts off the back from the front of the shop. The furthest counter from the viewer has three old-fashioned style candy jars brimming with scones and a pastry case filled with tarts, cookies, cinnamon rolls and lemon bars. The two shelves inside the counter are filled with white cups and tea pots and black trays. Behind the cash register, a blond man in his early twenties stands wearing a white collared long-sleeve shirt, a green apron, and black pants. He pours a cup of tea into a pot. He looks over his shoulder smiling as the steam coalesces into a translucent humpback whale.

No whales were hurt in in the making of this tea.

A Little Raeda To Tide You Through The Hiatus. 

A little raeda to tide you through the hiatus. 

Image Id: Eda in harpy form bridal carries Raine Whispers in the sky. Eda’s wings are spread out behind her. Raine and Eda are kissing. Raine holds Eda’s face with one hand and the other rests in their lap. Behind them is a sunset that goes from purple to pink to orange to gold. The purple is studded with lavender stars. Yellow, purple, and peach clouds fill the sky behind them.

A korean leaps into the air with a silver baseball bat held  in both hands over their shoulder. They're wearing a dark blue leather jacket with asymmetrical tails, a white shirt, and gray shorts. They have purple and white striped socks and black and white converse. A black backwards baseball keeps their spiky black hair in check. Their expression is angry and intense. A green bandana covers their mouth. They're lit from below by orange city lights, and from the left by a row of blue street lights, receding with the brick buildings into the distance. A city skyline stretches behind them beneath a sky that goes from orange at the bottom to dark blue at the top.

They're here; they're queer; and they're ready to fuck shit up.

Another oc, different story than dogslobber and different than Kira. The working title is Symbol. They're name is Ryder, alias Rookie. What are they fighting? Wait and see.

A 7 page zine about Michigan turtles.  The first page has an outline of Michigan with turtle shell pattern on it and small turtles in the Great Lakes. The next page has green painted turtle on rock with its back to the camera. The text reads: MI's state reptile. The next page has a green spotted turtle with the words fits in your hand. The last page has a green Eastern box turtle both in and out of its shell. An arrow points to the hinge on the closed turtle. The text reads can close up like a box.
The next has a green Blanding's turtle. The top text box says yellow throat. The other says always smiling. The next is a green snapping turtle with its mouth open showing its tongue. The text says MI's biggest turtle. The next has a green wood turtle and the text says "stomps to make tasty worms come out of the ground."

An 8 page zine I made back in October about some of Michigan's Terrific Turtles! Click for better quality, tumblr is messing with it.

“The Moon Will Sing A Song For Me

“The moon will sing a song for me

I loved you like the sun

Bore the Shadows that you made 

With no light of my own” 

Listening to The Crane Wives “Moon Will Sing” and this image dropped directly into my brain. Another wolf shapeshifter? In this house? More likely than you think. 

Image Id: A young man with short brown hair falls through the sky. His right arm dangles limply and his left reaches for a yellow waxing gibbous moon. He wears a long sleeved cream shirt with an x pattern stitched around the wrists and black claw-shaped buttons. His brown belt has the same x pattern. He wears black pants and brown boots with black leather laces and soles. A wolf pelt hangs around his shoulders bound by a white tooth beneath his chin. The wolf’s head is a hood over his troubled face. His eyes are open; the skin’s are closed. He’s lit above by the moon and below by three blue clouds.
