I'm especially happy with this month's patreon sticker!! The colors came out so vibrant. I probably love it just because it's so blue. My brain loves blue

Sketchbook nonsense! Playing lots with using just shading to define a form

A few color tests for Megrez! I’m having so much fun playing with lighting. I wish every scene had a little glowing creature in it

Cursed because it tasted horrible and also because I was worried they’d arrest me for stealing their hi-c

I’ve been quiet here bc I’ve been traveling - but I needed to pop in to say that I filled up my water bottle at a gas station soda fountain today and somehow ended up with a cursed hi-c / water combo

“Maria just use a kneaded eraser” I can’t. I will play with it. I will play with it all day long and get no work done at all

Maria Capelle Frantz @mariacfrantz.bsky.social · 08/06/2026

I love making art traditionally. I love ink I love paper I love my little collection of pens and brushes. I do not like erasers and the crumbs they bring

I just swept a disturbing amount of eraser shavings out from between my bedsheets and I’m reevaluating everything

Megrez inks! I love drawing old crooked buildings.

Colored this old drawing of Galoro as a cooldown after work. I love this guy, I want to find the time to draw him more!

That one strike I got took all my life force from me

I bowled so good I'm sleepy and my whole right arm hurts (worth it tho)

She was groaning in discomfort the whole time she was like this, but also absolutely refused to move

I was packing up some art to send to @athenaeumcomicart.bsky.social and I realized I never shared this illo! This one wasn’t for a project, it was just for fun. Usually when I draw for fun I end up drawing a lot of stars and clouds lol

Exactly! They evolved to walk on their fingernails!! How is that allowed

I maybe need to get myself one of these!! I used a toy one at the suggestion of a friend a few days ago and it really helped to have one to look at that was 3D

I hadn't thought of this!! Another crime to add to the list

Like a mug cake but it tastes like the real thing!! Here's the recipe I've been using - it's technically for two cookies but I either half it again or throw the rest in the freezer for next week if I don't feel like doing math lol pinchofyum.com/two-huge-cho...

Two Huge Chocolate Chip Cookies

Just two chocolate chip cookies - lightly crisp around the edge, and dense and buttery through the middle. They are thick enough to sink your teeth into and just really, really good.

Maria Capelle Frantz @mariacfrantz.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

Have a little drawer in your desk filled with treats, and eat one warm chocolate chip cookie a week. This is the key to happiness

Maria Capelle Frantz @mariacfrantz.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

I found a recipe for a single chocolate chip cookie and now i have a Friday night ritual of eating one cookie hot out the oven. It’s sounds insane but I stg it’s the best thing I’ve ever done

Their elbows are like shoved up into their torso. It's insanity

I've been trying to teach myself how to draw horses better. Luckily it's not hard at all because their legs are so normal and very easy to understand

Haha 250m would be some graphic novel! Every panel is a painting and the cover is gold leaf

Maria Capelle Frantz @mariacfrantz.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

Sometimes I think about how many graphic novels could be funded with the budget of one movie and then I have to stop thinking about that because ow

I just finished watching it and I had to come back to say that you really were not kidding about it being serious lol

010

Maria Capelle Frantz @mariacfrantz.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

I will! Yea a lot of my pals are having very mixed feelings about it, and I think many folks have had mixed feelings about season 2 as well. It's such a silly and often not particularly well-written show. Sometimes I think I watch it because I can see what it could be!

Maria Capelle Frantz @mariacfrantz.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

I hope I'm wrong. But if I'm not just going to do my usual trick of rewatching the show up until the point where I wish it ended, and then pretending the rest isn't canon

Maria Capelle Frantz @mariacfrantz.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

I haven't watched good omens 3 yet, but I have a feeling I'm about to find out what it feels like to be a sports fan watching the team you love just absolutely eat it during their biggest game of the season

Maria Capelle Frantz @mariacfrantz.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

I'm so scared to watch it. I have to know how it ends but I know it's going to hurt me lol

I've had the pleasure of watching Casket @casketjones.bsky.social develop their new comic "Chicken Legs." What an impressive debut! Great drawing, fun premise, and a real eye for all the finer points of comic book storytelling that can make a page sing. Go look! chickenlegs.the-comic.org/comics/1/

It’s been two years since we met our dog. She walked into that tiny room, so scared and still healing - and immediately curled up in my partners lap. I still have no idea how a dog that’d been let down so many times could be so trusting. Happy birthday, Tibby. Please stop getting older okay
