never going to get over how much i love this tattoo! thank you one million times @dayla.bsky.social for making my horse girl dreams come true, i had so much fun designing this one 🦄 and the placement!!!!!

a tattoo of a pegacorn surrounded by stars. its wearing blue eyeshadow but the tattoo is otherwise black and grey. it’s on the front of the leg, starting at the shin and wrapping around the calf

an angel showing more of the middle/rear of the horse, where it wraps from the side to the back of the calf

a photo taken from further back so you can see that this tattoo is huge! and sits so well on the leg 💕

did you know i make a magic sticker that changes colors (pink above 59°, turns purple when it gets cold!) because now is the time of year when it starts to do that outside and it’s fun

i’ve been working hard on a bunch of new flash for spooky season, there are so many pieces that i’m rolling them out a few at a time starting with these! so excited to finally show them off 🤩

a flash sheet with four tattoo designs on it. one is a crow in flight with one red star between its wings and another beneath its feet, connected by a red line that weaves in and out of the design. next to that is a happy cat standing on its hind legs, inspired by the artist louis wain so it has a very cute vintage feel. then there is a jackalope laying with its head at a twist, its skull, ribs, and femur are exposed and it has mushrooms growing out of it. last there is a vintage looking woman wearing a headband with a bat on it

tried to get a cute picture of monty playing with his favorite toy but they all turned out like this

monty the fluffy orange cat looking crazy while biting his pickle toy really hard. his eyes are big and wide with a devilish gleam to them and his little fangs are visible while he grips the pickle between his paws

monty’s mouth open wide, his tongue hanging out as he licks his pickle toy and also kicks it with his back legs

monty looking insane in the eyes again while he holds the pickle far away from him with his front legs outstretched

some fun tattoos from recently, seems like maybe i should put some more silly kitties in my flash?

A black and gray tattoo of a little cat face wearing a jester cap. It has big wide eyes with large black pupils. It also has a little bit of blush surrounding. It are some swirls and a little star shape.

A black and grey tattoo of a cute little cat, wearing a clown bib and a cone hat. It’s looking off to the side. Its face has specific markings mapped out with shading to match the client’s kitty cat, which is very cute.

A black and gray tattoo of an alocasia plant in a fancy vase. It’s done in a semi linocut cut style. So high contrast and some of the shading is hatched out in contours. It looks really cool.

A black and grey tattoo of a dragon, the dragon is rendered with soft Gray shading and it’s spitting out some cool looking black flames. It has a sort of medieval style, but the thing ever everyone comments on the most is it has these very distinct feet, they sort of fork out at the end

john reminded me that i haven’t uploaded a photo of my girl yet. here i am now vs. where i was a few levels ago

a photo of a person who is in a massive set of stony-looking armor looking at a photo on a wall of a beautiful woman

a person in a beautiful big suit of armor standing in front of a gorgeous sunset view in anor londo. her arms are spread wide like she’s saying “welcome to MTV cribs” and she’s holding a gigantic halberd

my dark souls character in an older mismatched suit of armor that doesn’t look quite as tough as the other set. but i have a cool helmet with horns on it i got from a gargoyle

taco casserole is a banger, very repeatable and good. this one pan recipe is super easy and lasts us 3 days usually. i’m a big fan of one pot/sheet pan recipes so we usually just flip between those

made a new sticker! i had a lot of fun playing around with color palettes for this one, i’m also messing around with more textures to get things a little less clean looking. check em out here: ladycelery.etsy.com/listing/4555...

a sticker of a butterfly on a dark blue background. the moth has an orange body, a yellow head with red eyes and yellow outlines on the wings. it has giant stars on the wings that stretch beyond the butterfly’s body. the wings are green and blue with purple accents and light blue stripes. there’s also a blue glowing effect in the background

the same sticker but it’s placed in front of a japanese maple so there are some cool leaves behind it

close up of the sticker so you can see the screen print looking texture on the wings

i bought this chair at goodwill six years ago for $20. i LOVE this chair. it is now in extreme need of reupholstering and also some fine tuning in its actual construction that is going to cost upwards of $600. but that seems fair for something i would like to keep for all time

a cute wooden chair with pink cushions, very vintage inspired but i don’t know how old it actually is, maybe 90’s? hard to say. but has an antique look

i got like 60% of the way through making this and then realized it isn’t actually funny but i finished anyway

a screenshot of a google image search for “most powerful hero of all time” but i replaced all of them with pictures of me, except for dr. manhattan in the top right because i figured we’re basically identical anyway

went back and updated some of my very first flash pieces since they’re over two years old now and i’ve learned a lot since then ✨ really excited about these guys

a flash sheet of black and grey tattoo designs. there’s a burning match, a shooting star, a dandelion with sparkles around it, a weird leaf that sort of looks like cat’s eyes, a wasp moth, an eyeball, a screeching bat, a potion bottle with a cloud of smoke shaped like a skull coming out, a spiky looking poppy, and then a single leaf

i hate when people use the thumbs up react to something i say because my brain only ever receives it like this

a meme of a group of stick figures talking but one of them is big and leaning away from all of them giving a thumbs up to someone not in the group to acknowledge that they have spoken without responding. usually because the person not in the group has a really annoying opinion that has been shared a thousand times

shoutout to @pikaole.bsky.social, my phone is so cute now!! still working through some of the others but i got too excited to show it off also i’ve kept my app layout the same for the past 5 years or so so i no longer need any labels, we’re doing just pictures now

i tattooed an arm band today and that means my attention span is -30 for the rest of the day. but the tattoo turned out so cute!!

a tattoo of some dancing spirits with radiant, star-like heads. they’re the blue spirits from howl’s moving castle so it looks like they’re dancing in a circle around the arm. there are some little sparkles here and there too

the other side of the tattoo, it looks like they’re having a party

i reworked the entire thing because the first version was not doing it for me at all

a similar painting to the finished piece but the jaw isn’t quite as symmetrical, the eyes are not the same size lol, the hair has light blue streaks in it that look kind of crazy, and instead of a dark green and magenta background this one is pastel pink and blue

the new background painted over the old—it’s now dark green in the center (basically black) and as it radiates outward it’s got magenta and blue. the face has been painted over so the eyes are more even, all of the hair is gone. also she has no eyebrows lol

progress! the hair is now mapped out but not detailed

this piece was sitting on my floor for months but i finally finished it, please clap

a painting on an oval canvas depicting a woman with green eyes and green hair made of venus fly traps that are going in all sorts of directions to fill out the canvas. she also has a very big fly sitting on top of her head. she’s kind of looking up and over to the side

the same image but close up on the head so you can see the fly and her face and hair more closely

the same painting but tilted at an angle to get it in some different lighting

an even more extreme tilt, because i need four pictures

this week was kind of funny because i got to tattoo two things that are absolute staples (a bee and three hummingbirds) that i never get to do. it was bound to be my turn eventually! i had a good time

a folk art style black and grey hummingbird with a big eye and then some more eyes hidden in the wings. it has some ornamental decorations in the body and some thick black lines to emphasize the wings

a soft black and grey tattoo of a hummingbird. illustrative but more realistic than the other one, with gentle shading here and there but mostly crisp, small lines

a black and grey tattoo of a bee, illustrative but with some realistic touches in the shading

a fine line tattoo of a sun with an open circle in the middle and alternating tapered and dotted lines radiating out
