Im a very stoic enjoyer of things but I was GASPING at every case. The A.O. Spare originals blew my fucking mind. I had to take a break bc I was so overwhelmed lol

Photo of a spread from a book depicting the Eteilla tarot, a bit different from the deck we consider standard these days. I don't speak French but I believe these cards are "The Sun" and "The Planets."

Photo of a display of Austin Osman Spare's custom tarot deck, full of eccentric but very nice artwork and scribblings. Also includes some race betting cards.

Photo of a rough painting by Pamela Colman Smith, who signed it in black. A silhouetted figure opens their arms to the sun, or perhaps moon, whose great face only partly is visible in the scene.

A photo of several Lady Frieda Harris paintings on a gallery wall. The paintings are cards of the Thoth tarot and are very energetic, highly stylized images.

Went on a little nyc adventure today. Visconti-Sforza deck, Lady Harris and P.C.Smith originals, the fucking mountain dream deck??? A Tarot exhibition perfectly engineered in a lab for me

Photo of a set of antique Tarot cards (Rider-Waite-Smith, circa 1920 printing). They're yellowed and beautiful.

Photo of "The Chariot", a painting by Lady Frieda Harris for the Thoth tarot deck. An armored figure sits cross-legged on a chariot drawn by winged creatures with various heads (bull, eagle, man, lion).

Photo of a card from the Visconti-Sforza, the Star. Hammered gold painted over with a detailed blue-clad figure. (This is actually a replacement card made around ten years after the original deck.)

Framed painted-over photos from the Mountain Dream tarot, a rare photographic deck.

Photograph of a fire pit with fire and skewers of sausage and veg cooking on a grate on top. A lovely forested lake in the evening light surrounds the scene.

Hasty plein air with the shitty kid-space crayons at work lol

Photo of a sketchbook page featuring a very messy, hasty crayon drawing of the side of a long structure attached to a barn. It's very colorful because it was drawn with children's crayons.

my dnd half elf from the in person (!!) game i was really hopeful about last year 🖤 we only got one session in before the dm flipped his lid but i still miss my quirked up guyyyyyy

Digital sketches of a half-elf adventurer, dressed in grimy clothes and actively dirty. His hair is scruffy and tangled in the present, but a little sketch in the top-right shows him cleaned up just a few years before now.... a sketch at the bottom has him confronted by one of his creditors. He says nervously, "Oh! Davie! How goes it, how's your mom? Yeah so I JUST got paid, saved it for you of course--" (this is a lie.)

turned 30 today 🍀 never a better time to share my work if you'd like! #oc

Digital painting of an angelic figure cradling a winged lantern, from which inky clouds of night are winding upwards. Where the clouds obscure the angel's eye, said eye becomes a brilliant starburst.

Digital painting of a lone figure sleeping on the beach, waves washing around their head and shoulders. From a glowing shape above their head, tearful fish spring in all directions, dreams escaping the boundaries of waking life.

A digital painting of an anthro character leaning proudly against the wing of his shiny propeller-plane.

Digital painting of a man looking at the viewer from inside his tiny mismatched lab. Repurposed containers around him are full of vivid red life-forms, made from twisting organs and not much else. Yes he does love them.

me as depicted by and next to old friends 💚

Scanned pencil drawing of two figures together, both very late 2000's/early 2010's middle and high school vibes, including the art style. they are best friends!!!!!

Scanned pencil drawing of two very anime weeb figures drawn together with nicknames, one standing with a (very disinterested) vulture and the other sitting with a rabbit. A general vibe of middle school friendship pervades the image.

A charmingly childish pencil drawing of two figures dancing the caramelldansen dance. The text goes along with the song-- "o-o-o-oaooa! o-o-o-owaohah!"

A scanned pencil drawing of two anime weeb figures drawn together, catboys packaged up to be mailed away. The text reads, "we comez in a pakage." more very best friend middle school business. Painfully dated but cuter for it.

Drawings of her today during downtime. My memory-drawing is more of an iconic Pig huh....

Photo of ink drawings of a pig lying in her pen. The top one was drawn after looking at the scene and then walking away, and has more stylized shapes. The bottom one was drawn while directly observing and so is more realistic, but not perfect.

for my best friend's birthday back in may 🎂💞

Digital art of an anthro furry character, a cute sphinx with lots of pink and cream in her fur. She's sitting cutely atop a neatly frosted birthday cake, ringed with candied strawberries and puffs of cream, a reddish bow tied around the whole thing. Text reads: "Dolce, for Clockrobber. Happy Birthday!"

arpg entries are always a good artistic playground (april) #pouflons

Digital art. A gryphon-like character, fat with a dark body and long white neck, is viewed from behind. He's painting an abstract rendition of the dark and rainy city outside his giant window.

Digital art. A goat-like creature with dark scales and tentacle hair frolics in a patchwork-green field among the flowers. A dragonlike pet accompanies him cutely.

Digital art. A goat-like creature with dark scales and tentacle hair (A) complains to his mentor, another goat-like creature striped with what seems like seaglass (B). They're working together in a farm field, planting.

Text:
A: "Why do I have to help with this stupid stuff anyway? Can't their plants spore by themselves?" (Note: In the ocean, kelp reproduces with spores, not seeds.)
B: "Things are different on land. Planting seeds is an essential step."
A: "Well then maybe they should just give up on land!"
B: (threatening tone) "If you don't help our gracious hosts I will tell your father."
A: ".... It's just a few rows I guess."

Another long night in this dark city.... 🚬🐱 a design for Scatterstar Isles, now sold!

Digital art of an anthropomorphic sphinx-type guy with warm grey fur flecked with a lighter grey. He's dressed fairly modern-ly, with a leather gun holster-harness and a long dark coat hanging off his shoulder. He lights a cigarette as he looks at you with cybernetically modified eyes; between the smoke and his cyborg throat element, he probably sounds like shit. Text reads, "Investigative Insights: Curio Auction."

finished raffle prizes from a while back 🖤

Digital drawing of a human-looking guy with pointy elf ears and an edgy fantasy outfit. A white streak cuts through his long black hair and he looks off to the side with a grim expression. Text reads, "Kade: raffle prize for Havoklysm @ Toyhouse."

Digital drawing of an anthro dog-like guy with angel wings and various scars. He's got a scalpel in one hand and his own flesh in the other, having opened himself up to find black metal bones, false lungs, and a beating blue heart. This seems like a depressing revelation. Text reads, "Moral: raffle prize for mvtualfuture @ Bluesky."

angelic opposites 🌓 a little batch of one-off #adoptables (mirror's light and earth power are sold but the others could be yours....!)

A set of six digitally drawn characters with cutesy proportions and wings. In order:

Fireheart - red-skinned angel-devil sort of being with a cool leather outfit, a sweet smile with spooky red eyes, and a heart-shaped flame.

Spiked Spade - blackened extremities and spikes across their body, even poking holes in their checkered oversized hoodie. Leathery wings and a spaded tail.

Dark Visions - Black and purple outfit with yellow accents and chunky gold jewelry. Dark eyes with yellow/green/purple irises match the eye-markings on their wings.

Mirror's Light - short-ish locs up in a ponytail type situation, framing mirrored-orb eyes. wearing a labcoat-like outfit with mirrored leggings, or perhaps a mechanical body, underneath. Wings seem to be mechanical and futuristic.

Earth Power - green and brown patchwork skirt with some sort of animal pelt draped over it and a fox-like fluffy tail hanging off the back. Looking somberly at a white bird resting on their hand. Arguably the most normal-looking of the bunch.

Skylight - somewhat abstracted weirdo with a white body, floating sky-patterned arms and hands, and blue-grey hair whose color seems to extend onto the face and down the nose. One eye is bright, the other covered by a square of sky, and more shapes float off their body. Big wings in the back are also sky-cloudy.

Digital drawing of a pink sphinx character, with a purple mane, stripes, and a hand at the end of their tail holding a ring of keys. Peachy pink wings hover detached over their back. They're updated from a much older, lower-quality design/drawing from 2017. Text reads, "Sphinx in Pink."
