Hi everyone, just an update, we still owe about $2200 on our payment plans. One of those plans (with ~$500 left) has a much worse interest rate, so I'm hoping to get that paid off ASAP. If anyone is able to share this again, it would be really appreciated. Thanks again for all your help so far <3

I had a dream this thing hated me so bad it kept shooting missiles at my location anytime it saw me. #art #mspaint
An MS Paint drawing. The viewer is standing in a forest, stretching into the distance. The trees are curved inward pointing towards a giant figure in the sickly green fog. Its eyes glow bright yellow.

I haven't been doing a lot of stuff that I want to post, largely just doodles and also I started Draw-A-Box, but I also recently made some edits on my pngtuber avatar I want to share. #art
An MS Paint drawing of a creature, who serves as my png-tuber avatar. It has a face with 6 eyes and a long curved mouth, a set of antlers, a snail body and shell, and two arms. It also has shoulder length mostly straight brown hair and a tee-shirt that is light blue with pink flowers.The same creature, edited. The shell is now more angular than rounded, the arms have little thumbs, the eyes are closer together, there is now a visible neck, and the hair is bigger and curlier. There are also more shadows.

I've got another full page of these I'm working on but I love this little squart spinda so much I wanted to share it now. #art #pokemon
A paper and sharpie marker drawing of the pokemon Spinda, a slightly anthropomorphized rabbit. It has swirly eyes and its arms are out to the sided, making it looks dizzy. It also has red markings that look like high-waisted shorts, long sleeves, and large dots on the eyes and ears. My drawing specifically is a little squished vertically so it's shorter and fatter.

digital illustration, title at bottom: Terrorgrove Beast. A creature in a dark forest. It has a huge horse skull for a head, jaw wide open and lunging forward. its body is a long mass of fur/hair with a tail, and many numerous arms and hands reaching out or supporting it like legs.Digital black and white ink illustration, title at bottom: Metempsychosis. A horse skull viewed from below and to the side, as if it is looking up to the right while you are standing below it. The skull is taking up most of the square canvas. Its jaw is carved in curled filigree. Roots come from the bottom of the canvas to grasp and wrap around and through the skull. Blooming out of the skull's eye is a Rafflesia flower, and a mass of 10 hands come out of the center of it, reaching up and out beyond the top left of the canvas. Out of the back of the skull's head is a flowing mass of hair. The background shows a large bare tree with numerous bare branches, viewed as if looking straight up at it. The piece is shaded in selective hatching.Digital black and white ink illustration, title at bottom: The Host of Anguish. The subject is a humanoid creature shown from the waist up, with at least 6 arms and a horse skull head on a long neck of stylized plant roots. More hands and arms are emerging from its expansive, twisting and tearing flesh to cover most of the lower half of the canvas. All of the hands are grabbing and reaching out as if in crisis. A large, deep hole is in its upper chest, torn flesh as its border. The piece is shaded using extensive, precise crosshatching.Digital illustration using extensive fine contour hatching. Entire canvas is bright fully saturated red, except for the hands which are still white. A huge swirling tangled mass of gnarled roots fill the entire canvas, spiraling down into a black pit. A pair of hands are grasping onto one large root-tendril while the entire rest of the person is engulfed in more twisting roots and being pulled down into the pit.

Title at bottom reads: Unfettered. The entire canvas is filled with massively long, undulating strands of hair, generally flowing from top left to lower right. An equine creature jumps up and away from the mass, some hair strands twisting and flowing around and from it. Its long neck is made up of smaller twisting hair strands, and more hair flows from its head, withers, and fetlocks. Its face is a smooth full-face mask shaped to fit a human's face. The center of the mask is mostly covered by a large, sideways simplistic eye with a pinpoint pupil looking forward.

A pencil and paper sketch of a man's face, looking mostly to the viewer's right. He has a full beard and long features.The same sketch, but the sketchbook is tilted somewhat away from the camera on one side, making all of his features appear more correctly placed and balanced.
