It’s my birthday! I’ve been a bit busy recently, but I wanted to make something simple to celebrate. I keep forgetting I’m not 25 lol. We’ll get there, I just need to slow down a bit. XP Anyway, thanks for all of the support. 🤍🤍 #art #oc #jirunaga #furry #furryartwork

I want to up the quality of some of my videos, so I’m making Rikhu sprites to help! They won’t be in every video, but they’ll be useful, especially if I decide to make YouTube videos! I’m just learning the ropes for now, but we’ll get there. 🤍🤍 #art #furry #oc #character #sketch

Today, my goal was to make something simple, and I figured I’d follow suit with a simpler video too. While it’s frustrating I couldn’t fully edit this how I wanted to, it’s a solid learning experience. So, what do you think? Isn’t he so cool? 🤍🤍 #art #oc #illustration #process #timelapse

Here’s the finished piece! Vaelon is a strong, stoic guardian of the Jirunaga, with a heavy focus on maintaining peace across his subjects. What do you think of his design so far? I’m still experimenting, but I’d love to hear your opinions! 🤍🤍 #oc #vaelon #jiruverse #jirunaga #illustration

Working on my next piece for my universe. I can’t wait to show it off! What do you think of Vaelon? As Prime Guardian of the Jirunaga, he’s got a huge role to fill. Do you think he can do it? 🤍🤍 #oc #jiruverse #jirunaga #vaelon

Here’s the finished piece! I had so much fun drawing this character and playing with all of their shapes and colors. I don’t have the owner’s tag, but if you see this: thank you for letting me draw this adorable critter! Did I do them justice? 🤍🤍 #art #illustration #furry #furryart

✨Welcome back to my universe!✨ Today’s topic is the life force coursing through every Jiru: their Senn. I’m so excited to continue developing this concept with everyone. I want to know: what would your Senn ability be? 🤍🤍 #oc #jirunaga #jiruverse #illustration

Discover I wanted to create a piece that demonstrated the connection between Spyro and Sparx. It’s a simple enough concept, but I hope you like it as much as I do. What do you think? Anything you’d have done differently? 🤍🤍 #art #fanart #spyro #spyrothedragon #illustration

I loved the finale to the Amazing Digital Circus so much. It answered so many questions, and I’m not sure I could have come up with a better ending if I had to. Huge props to Gooseworx and Glitch. I can’t wait to see what comes next. :3 🤍🤍 #fanart #tadc #tadcpomni #illustration #procreate

Rikhu @pondering-critter.bsky.social · 20/06/2026

Hope. I wanted to make a piece that reflected the feeling of the last episode. Facing a difficult truth is uncomfortable, but I think the final episode really wrapped things up beautifully. How did you feel? 🤍🤍 #art #fanart #tadc #tadcpomni #illustration

This week, I focused on learning to film and edit my process as an artist. Videography, while still basic for now, felt like a natural next step. It’s so satisfying to see a project come to fruition. I can’t wait to keep creating for you all. 🤍🤍 #illustration #artist #furry #process

The finale to this series was well worth the watch! It’s sad that it’s over, but I’m so glad I got to experience the digital circus over the last few years. What do you think? I’m curious how you all feel about the end of this masterpiece. XP 🤍🤍 #fanart #tadccaine #tadcthelastact

Hompf! Working with an all-black character, I needed to experiment to keep the contrast strong enough to read the painting without sacrificing the black design. Plus, it was the perfect opportunity to make something a little silly. 🤍🤍 What do you think? Isn’t he adorable? #art #furry

Rikhu @pondering-critter.bsky.social · 03/06/2026

Do any of you have suggestions, apps, or tips for editing videos? I want to start making more educational and entertaining content around my art, but I’m not really sure where to begin lol. This feels a little amateur for now, but I want to improve! Any advice would be appreciated. 🤍🤍
