Hi #portfolioday Do you enjoy undead horse skulled ladies in cloaks? Well, then you have come to the right account! My art is inspired by the Welsh folklore tradition of the Mari Lwyd as well as the style of Clarke and Beardsley.

Revealed in Wholesome Snack last December, TOEM 2 is out today! Toem 2 is a charming sequel that gives us more of what we loved from Toem: it reminds players beauty is in the world around us, if we take the time to stop, pay attention, and choose to actively care.

I tend to share info about what escape to help others see that it is possible. However, a lot of factors impact the success of escaping a DV situation: A support network Access to a refuge (emergency housing) Going non contact (exceptionally difficult for those with children)

Fascism and monopolies go hand in hand, and smashing monopolies is key to the program of fighting fascism. After defeating fascism in the mid-20th century, the Allies oversaw a program of "denazification," starting with the Nuremberg trials: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nurembe... 11/

In 1969, Walter Chell of the Calgary Inn wanted to create a signature drink for the Inn's new Italian restaurant. The drink he created became Canada's national cocktail. Today, 350 million Caesars are consumed each year in Canada. This is the story. 🧵 1/11
A close-up of a Caesar cocktail in a glass with a salted or spiced rim. The drink is reddish-orange and filled with ice. A lime wedge is hooked onto the rim, and a celery stalk stands upright inside the glass. A black straw is also visible. The background is softly blurred, keeping focus on the drink.

Jean Paré took her love of cooking and turned it into an empire. She oversaw the publication of 17,000 kitchen-tested recipes in over 200 cookbooks. Her Company's Coming cookbooks have sold 30 million copies. This is her story. 🧵 1/10
An elderly woman with short, light-colored hair and glasses, wearing a royal blue dress with large buttons, sits at a dining table eating a slice of cake with a fork. She holds a delicate blue and white teacup in her other hand. The table is set with an assortment of colorful desserts, including a fresh fruit tart topped with berries and kiwi, chocolate-frosted pastries, and more cake. Small vases of pink and yellow flowers decorate the table. In the background is a cozy living room with a white sofa, framed by family photos on a light blue wall and a glowing table lamp.

The individuals, dressed in early 20th-century attire including hats and coats, are holding large paper megaphones and appear to be celebrating or protesting, with some waving and others holding flags. The scene takes place on a city street with buildings and signs in the background, including one for "Chiclets."

Another shroom doodle, this one inspired by fool's mushroom.
A black ink figure facing to the left, wearing an oversized bonnet shaped like a flat mushroom cap along with an ankle length dress. A gathered collar begins the light top layer with off-shoulder short sleeves. It has a hem dotted with a laser cut style design. The skirt is fitted at the hip then expands, finally pulled back into a ballooned shape with hefty gathers at the ankle. The hem frills out from below the gathers. Vertical piping is along the seams of the skirt. Matching choker necklace, ring, and strappy stiletto shoes are worn.A photo of a fool's mushroom also known as amanita verna. Peering up at the gills under the wide flat white mushroom cap, the long white stem has a short draping frill one third of the way down from the cap. Set against a dark brown bed of leaves and bark.

Did a doodle yesterday inspired by a stinkhorn mushroom image on Wikipedia.
A black ink sketch on white paper of a dress. The white sleeveless top of the dress has rows of organically shaped vertical black ovals. The ovals are small at the collarbone, large on the chest, and decreasing in size as the rows move towards the waist. The black miniskirt is surrounded by a globe-shaped open geometry skirt in white. The figure wears pointed toe black heels and large bead jewelry, hair pulled up in a bun.Photo of a stinkhorn mushroom from Wikipedia: the conical top of the mushroom is brown and porous like a morel. It has a white stem surrounded by a white fungi net-looking membrane. It sits amongst a bed of brown and green leaves.
