Today is polyamory day! I came out as polyamorous years ago and has done allowed me to feel and be my fuller, more complete self. I don't talk about it too much - but on this of all days I figure I should say something. Thanks for listening : ) #PolyamoryDay

#throwback #repost "St. Cerise's Offering" - an expression of tragic, uncorrectable wrongs, and a tribute to a particular storyline in Fallen London #darkart #horrorart #macabreart #emotionalart #digitalpainting #fallenlondon #mreaten #areckoningshallnotbepostponed

A figure with a contorted, sorrowful face and black streaked tears in their eyes nuzzles and cradles another figure, who is missing their head. In place of the head is a lit, half melted red candle, which dribbles wax that mixes with the blood from the wound, onto both figures. The lighting is stark, shadowy, and yellow. A meat cleaver, with arms reached, lays abandoned on the floor, stained with red, and a long arcing streak of thick red liquid spatters the ground. The lit candles creates a glowing halo of yellow light that frames the headless figures' lack of head, and shoulders.

- The Futility of Sorrow - Compassion wanes as time and people go on. Details in reply ⤵️ Prints Licensing #art #DarkArt #HorrorArt

Digital greyscale illustration, title at bottom: The Futility of Sorrow. A humanoid form sits slumped, their head a bare skull looking up with jaw open unnaturally wide. Their teeth are long, twisted tree roots flowing up in a mass beyond the top of the canvas. Their hands are resting in their lap, palms up and relaxed. The parts so far described are shaded with fine contour hatching. Their body is solid black. The background shows a large circle with viscous strands of thick black fluid (or sludge) stretching across it. The rest of the background is grey static.

- Fatal Exception Error - #art #DarkArt

digital greyscale ink illustration which also utilizes glitch and photocopy paper textures. A running horse, its head completely distorted and liquified. Glitch patterns and lines float over top of its head and the air around it. Its body is overlaid with grungy photocopied paper texture, parts streaked and darker.

Evidently burned myself out to the point of getting sick. Being sick is a great way to get my body and brain to just stop for a second. Something I've evidently sorely needed. On the other hand, there's a lot of I want to do. Its a complicated mix of grateful for the time and being irritated at it.

Happy belated bird-day. Couldn't post as I was busy cooking, and then eating and then passing out with some new friends. Holiday baggage aside, its a day for being grateful. Thanks to everyone in my life who make it what it is, and to all of you for viewing and supporting my work. #thanksgiving

A person sitting on a rocky hillside, curled up over his knees, the forest behind him. Luminous ghostly outlines of things like the direction of the wind, a sword, a feather, and another person are present

I'll start ~ Hello~ I'm Michi! I'm an illustrator, graphic designer, and a stroke survivor / disabled artist. I like to make creepy/cute - soft macabre - body horror art~ 🖤🖤🖤

A blonde woman her hair in a loose braid. One eye hidden with a white-lined sphinx moth. Her mouth is full of cocoons that are hatching and honeysuckle leaves.
There is a severed hand behind her that's gripping her neck.
The top of her body is melting away and she is surrounded by honeysuckles.

Three cryptids. One is humanoid resembling a lady and the horns at the top almost resembles a crown. They remaining creatures are much smaller with less limbs.
The creatures don't have a face, just a hole where the face should be.

A young woman having a tea party in a carriage. She's with 3 cryptids: resembles a cat, a fox, and a tiger. The carriage is in a garden and is covered with vines.

A somber woman with brunette hair. Severed hands are clawing into her chest. There are red threads and peonies all around her.
