A commission for @wireframehydra.bsky.social, featuring their character peering out from a wormhole! This was a fun one to make, and I learnt a lot from it! #art #illustration
An icon of Wireframe Hydra, a fox-bat-snake-thing smiling to the camera. They have bright yellow eyes, a cat friend hanging on their arm and skull emblems on their ruff. They are pushing open a portal with their hands, and in the background the aurora borealis is seen in a sky of stars.

This is a custom #crossstitch design I made featuring three birds; an Australian robin, a magpie, and a hummingbird on a tree. Commissioned by Nia. I had such fun creating this design and I loved how it turned out!
A mockup of a cross stitch design is shown in a wooden horizontal frame. Within it shows aida material with a mockup of a tree and a sprawling branch which is holding three birds: an Australian robin, a magpie, and a hummingbird. There are small autumn coloured leaves dotted around on the branches at at the top part of the trunk. This is framed by a single outline of a border to frame the piece. At the bottom the words "Custom design by Katuend" is written in a pixel art font.

#Minecraft Plates of food! I 3D modelled these plates and models with over 30 designs for every terracotta colour and hand-placing the food models to look natural on a set of plates. Interactivity in game was made by Jim, and this features on the RTGame Minecraft server! What food should be next?

I did keep my sketchbook out and have some more fun with the acrylic markers and white gel pen from before. I'm used to using soft pastel colours, but these are so bold and bright, it was a really fun change of pace! #art #acrylicmarkers
Two pages of a sketchbook showing various drawings make with bold acrylic marker pens, with details of a white gel pen. The first page features a pink lilly, a strawberry, a piece of cake, a sloshing glass of water with highlights and sparkles on the glass, a slice of orange and cherries. These are surrounded by varying sizes of dots for effects around them. The second page features pop-art like words and symbols with double layer effects to create a sense of depth, with a sparkle "WOW", tick, exclamation mark and a small flower

I spent some time melting in the sun and appreciated the flowers with a pack of acrylic markers and a white gel pen I hadn't tried before. Absolutely love the effect of the white gel pen for the outlines on the colours, I think more experimentation might be in order #art
A photo of a sketch book, on the pager are various flowers depicted. Some are sketched in pencil and others are coloured with acrylic markers, with white outlines. On the left are two orange flowers, a few smaller blue and green flowers, and on the right a large purple flower and some smaller pink ones above that. The sketchbook is surrounded by a few of the used pens.

I created these backgrounds for Kalpa, an openSUSE Linux OS! I had some great fun creating these, in both dark and light versions in 5K, ultra-wide and vertical versions. So happy to see it in use and I hope this happy turtle brings joy to those who use it! #linux #kalpa #illustration
An underwater landscape featuring multiple rolling hills into the distance with a happy green turtle highlighted by a beam of light. On their shell is the logo for Kalpa, with two halves of the image being shown in dark and light mode colours. Beneath this are alternatives versions of the illustration - both light and dark versions of the portrait style, as well as a close up of the turtle and bubble details.

All of my patterns (45+!) have been updated, so all stitches and symbols should be Pattern Keeper compatible! I've given everything a little refresh and love in the process, because #crossstitch is fun, and I want others to enjoy it with my patterns as well! Link in my bio!

A four by four grid, featuring a different cross stitch design in each section. From multiple landscapes of trees, forests, sunrises, to Christmas decorations, Muppets Christmas Carol, cute frogs with knives, Halloween ghosts and pumpkins, Neopets baby Paint Brush and much more. The text overlaid on top says "Every pattern updated! katuend.etsy.com" with the logo of Pattern Keeper shown in the middle

My first try with acrylics! Jumped into the deep end to just experiment. A test of texture and colour mixing. Trying to understand how to create texture was also great fun, I like how the corner bush feels Part of my "don't be scared to try new things" challenge I've set myself! #painting #acrylic
A square canvas with an acrylics painting. It is of a forest scene with a brown path leading forward and to the right between a tree and bush in the foreground. Further back there are other large bushes and trees with a distant lake. The sun is shining through from the back of the forest. Some of the paint is thick, causing it to catch the sun and cast shadows as it lifts from the canvas.

I absolutely loved my play through of Jusant, such an expressive game with great and unique story telling, and also a great little friend #jusant @dontnod.bsky.social #fanart
The main character from Jusant is seen staring in awe in a dark cave with luminescent glowers and creatures within, on their shoulder is their companion. Below this is a different illustration showing the same two characters, except this time the companion is trying to climb the other characters face. A thought bubble is displayed showing their carrying backpack.

The last of the resin flowers, a lovely Sweet Pea, but I waited to share until I had them set up together in their ornamental ivy pot! I love how all of these turn out each time and now they all sit beside me catching the sun in the mornings 💙 #craft #resinart
A flower closeup made out of liquid resin is shown on the left, depicting a Sweet Pea flower in pink and deep purple, with leaves and spirals coming out. On the right is a fake ivy plant with five resin flowers and a bead and resin dragonfly fitted into it.

An emote commission for GreenCorgiQueen, featuring their lil corgi and 🥺! What a fun little friend to draw! #art

A pixel art based upon "The Coronation of Charlemagne" by Friedrich Kaulbach (1861), but interpreted into pixels and with the #Minecraft colour pallet. Commissioned by Speki to add themselves in. This was a great and fun challenge to keep true to the original! #pixelart
A 96x64 pixel art is seen upscaled. It is based upon the original art of The Coronation of Charlemagne but made with the Minecraft colour pallet, showing Minecraft player heads in place of the person being crowned and doing the crowning. There are multiple figures seen around as depicted in the original art in a variety of poses and actions.

Another resin flower of Snowdrops! Love how these turned out as well, the double colours and the shape are so effective #resinart #flowers #craft
Two flowers made out of wire and resin dips are shown on the same stem. They are snowdrops, with three white outer petals, and 4 inner white petals with a small edge of mint-green at the ends, surrounding some small stamens. The resin is reflecting the light as they bend over.

A resin flower, featuring a lovely Daffodil! Just love how these all turn out, a workshop of a small group to create such unique things! #resinart #handmade
A resin flower made to look like a Daffodil. Wire is curved to look like the petals of the flower and dipped in resin to make a "bubble" of resin that sets in the shape - 4 inner semi-transparent orange petals and 6 bright yellow flowers surround some stamens, on the wire stem are two thin green leaves curving out.

As I have begun on my next #crossstitch project, and the sheer scale has made me realise it may take a few months, I will instead look to my last finish - a small neat thrush bird! A small finish is nice between the larger ones. Pattern by Jane Greenoff "Wild Birds" #crossstitch #needlework #bird
A completed cross stitch piece on aida is shown in the photo, a brown Thrush bird sits atop of a stump with its mouth open calling out. The stump has small bits of ivy and leaves hanging over it.

A whole selection of random assorted pixels I hadn't got to sharing! A large and wide variety, from memes to tropical themes, a trophy and a mini chalkboard. Each one has a story, but maybe it's best left as a mystery for you to guess #pixel #pixelart
A square canvas with a light blue background, there are various different artworks put together as a collage. In the top left is Poe from the Star Wars meme saying "They fly now" with some flying Minecraft Squids flying over the frame. Top right show cases a dynamic and bordered check mark in white and red. Below this are various tropical themes, with two palm trees on a beach and three tropical drinks. At the bottom is a golden trophy, shaded in way to show a very shiny surface. To the right is a classic chalkboard, showing some math equations written on it.

I don't go here, but when a friend shows you a character design that you love and can immediately imagine them watching snow fall, sometimes they just have to be drawn. #monsterhunter #palico
A drawing of a Palico from the game Monster Hunter. They are wearing a green hood with a cream diamond pattern, their cat eyes are large in awe, watching some snowflakes fall. The background is a soft blue gradient with drawn snow and snowflakes dotted over it

This lovely lavender, horses and fields cross stitch design was commissioned by Sophie. I loved working on this so much, from the vibrant sunset and clouds, the details in the grass and getting all that lavender just right. This design is on my Etsy for others to enjoy too! #pixelart #crossstitch

I made this needle felted landscape about 3 months ago - It's something I'd always wanted to try but never got to. In this year of "I will complete craft projects" I ticked another off the list! This came together really quickly, and I think I'll try more in the future! #needlefelt #needlefelting
A wooden hoop is shown with a needle felted scene, with a three hills seen in the foreground in different greens, with small red, purple, pink and blue flowers seen along them. The furthest hill has little peaks of trees, with a rising yellow sun behind the hills. The sky is a gradient of blues and some wispy clouds have been felted on.

I went into this hoop with no plan & no pattern. I wanted to try ribbon embroidery for a long time and from there it turned into a hoop of experimentation. Some worked well, others not so much, but in the end I still had great fun, learnt a lot - and broke two needles in the process! #embroidery
A large wooden hoop is shown with an earthy linen fabric. Embroidered into it is multiple ribbon styled flowers in a variety of colours - blues, purple, pink, red, yellow and mint, with embroidered stems and leaves between them, consisting of a large variety of stitches including woven wheel, long stitch, closed fly stitch, feather stitches, raised leaf stitch, chains and many more, with seed stitches, lazy daisies and french knots filling the space between the features.

A pumpkin is shown, albeit it is very dark with a carving cut into it, lit up by some internal candles. A carving of a cat sitting on a metal fence is seen, their tail hands down and loops around itself to form a spiral, the fence has spikes on the three bars going up and a moon is cut out in the top corner.

I completed these two embroideries! Some hanging plants and some flowers, gosh those thousand French knots were a whole challenge, but I love the look and texture of them so much. Enjoyed learning a few new stitches and my time on these! #embroidery #craft
Two embroidery hoops are sat on a wooden table, they both hand black fabric. The left one features three styles of hanging plants, made of white and cream baskets, one made of hanging green plants made of many French knots, one with tall leaf stitch, and the third with hanging triangular leaves. The hoop is finished in a frameless style with a green ribbon above. On the right features some flowers with leaves protruding out from the flowers, one is white with French knot centres and three are dual blue colours with a pink butterfly above, it is finished in a blue flower patterned tape around a hoop with a blue ribbon above.
