Good Dog #FurryArt (?)

Digital art of a tan and black mixed breed dog character named Good Dog. She is clearly a bully breed mix, with a broad head, cropped ears, and a big chest. She has small white markings on her paws, muzzle, chest, and tail tip. Her eyes are a light golden brown, her nose and belly are pink, and she has scars across her face and body that are noted to be from zombies. She has a rope around her neck like a collar, with a frayed end dangling from the knot. A note mentions that it has been chewed through but she won't talk about it, as well as that it's tied a little too tightly.

memories of being small #DigitalArt #FurryArt

Digital doodle comic featuring an anthropomorphic brown and white stoat with long straight hair. Panel one shows him from the waist up, with one paw raised. He says: "Not too long ago, I was talking about childhood memories, and I drew a little diagram of how I experience my own, and then one that was how I imagined MOST people experience childhood memory." There is also an aside that reads: "I don't even remember the context... I kind of just take any excuse to draw a diagram..." His speech bubbles continue below, wrapping around various objects. "My diagram showed memory events that were fully disconnected from chronology. Imagine a shelf full of disorganized knick-knacks." Near this bubble is a collection of items, including a snow globe, miniature stone obelisk, copper spiral necklace, and a bloodstone fox carving. He says in smaller text: "less optimistically: a shattered mirror." Shards of glass are visible near this bubble. In normal text again: "My second diagram showed memories with a relatively consistent pattern. Imagine a filing cabinet--a few of the older files are missing, but it's well organized. To the left is an open manila folder with papers and photos inside, and to the right is a stack of more folders. There is a tiny toony version of him as a feral stoat (with no human-like hair), saying "Not like MY filing cabinet, which is a complete mess." (alt text continued in next image)

the sin of envy #DigitalArt #FurryArt #Fursona

Digital doodle comic. Panel one features an anthropomorphic stoat with long straight hair sitting in the drivers seat of a car with the key in one hand. Out the window the moon is visible. Panel two has him inserting the key and starting the car, which makes a KSSHK noise and then vrooming. Panel three shows the view out the front windshield, where a sedan is driving past. Oh, there goes my coworker, the stoat says, and then continues: I think this is the first time I've seen any of our newbies' cars. I didn't notice last time we closed together... Panel four shows the coworker in the sedan. He is an anthropomorphic skunk with short scruffy hair and is holding a vape in one hand while his other rests on the steering wheel. Panel five shows a close-up of the vape surrounded by a cloud and sparkles. Panel six shows the stoat character again, staring forward with a neutral smile and both hands on the wheel. Panel six shows his hands get more detailed as he clenches them around the wheel, cracking it. His smile is also larger but more strained. Below is text that reads "jealous fucking clench" with an arrow pointing to his hands.

doodle comic about navigating relationships with autism/as me #DigitalArt #FurryArt

Tailless speech bubbles follow, which read: Similarly, I've been punished for expressing feelings my whole life, even if unintentionally, so being told it's also hurtful to keep them quiet is a little confusing. Below is a panel featuring a very small and younger version of the character, standing in the middle of silhouetted stylized sharp teeth. A giant crying eye is visible beyond him, and the tears splash against the ground he stands on, which is already soaked. Thought bubbles extend from him reading: I have to be calm since no one else is. If I'm like THAT it will hurt people. Tailless speech bubbles continue below. Especially when it's like this: and then a cyclical diagram with arrows pointing from "You're too closed-off. I feel like you don't care." to "Letting me know you're upset hurts my feelings." and back again. The final panel shows the character present-day again, with a strained expression. He finishes by saying: It feels like connection is a game that's been rigged against me, so it's impossible for me to ever win. Beside the word win is an asterisk, and at the very bottom edge of the panel is a semi transparent line with an asterisk and the words: It's easier to connect with other people who are like me. I can "win" with them.

This happened to me today #FurryArt

a microsoft paint black and white doodle comic. panel one shows a four way stop intersection where a car is waiting to turn left and a truck is waiting to turn right (perpendicular to the car). Panel two shows the driver of the car, an anthropomorphic stoat furry with long hair and a tired expression. The driver side window is rolled down about 3 or 4 inches. He says "I am so tired, but at least the rain earlier made it a little cooler, so I can roll down my window and listen to music on my way home. Yay!" Panel three shows the truck turning right, beginning to pass the car. Panel four is a POV you are the car driver and shows water splashing out of the bed of the truck with a "swoosh!" noise. Panel five shows the water splashing into the open window. Panel six shows the stoat with his jaw dropped and his eyes huge, looking at the window while water drips down his face and all over his car. Veins are visible in his eyes.

cold water comet #DigitalArt

digital art featuring a faceless human bust painted in chunky golden shapes, surrounded by pixellated pngs of comet goldfish and screenshots from the wikihow for how to fillet a fish. Along the left side runs a curving strand of LED lights. In the bottom right is the head of a fossa in the same colors as the human. Notably, it has eyes and a mouth, where the human does not. The background has cartoony, messy drawings of clouds and stars

The same artwork but overlaid with a poem in plain white text, scattered across the piece. It reads: silver and gold glitter, catch LED lights like galaxies, drift and spin and dance until the end, supernova or just float, belly-up and picked clean, taken to pieces and sold for parts, fuel for stars or mere protein, midnight snack, under a sky that is far too close to be real.

I never posted the other art I did #WarriorCats #DigitalArt

Digital comic of Warrior Cat OCs. Cloudstrike (a seal lynx point) walks away from a group of joking friends, a smile on their face. They turn away, rolling their eyes, and then are shocked and horrified at something offscreen. The next panel shows them standing alone in the clearing, obviously agonized. They shakily ask "Mousepaw?" The next panel shows a blurry image of a chocolate lynx point who is surrounded by stars and appears younger than them. That panel then gives way to a very similar (but older-looking and clearly different) cat who asks "Who?" Cloudstrike says "Ah, sorry! Thought you were my brother... But you don't look like him at all." Their final comment "Must have been a trick of the light..." overlaps with the next panel, which shows a chocolate lynx point that greatly resembles both cats, speaking to a dark gray tabby. The point says "How's the prey running in RiverClan?" to which the tabby replies "Usually swims. How about WindClan?"

Digital art of a pedigree chart featuring cat busts/headshots. It shows a gray RiverClan cat named Lilyface having kits with a gray tabby RiverClan cat named Waveclaw. Their offspring are Frogsong and Flickerclaw, a non-agouti gray cat and a gray tabby. On the other side it shows seal point WindClan cat Gullfang having kits with a blue lynx point named Whitewhisker. Their offspring are a chocolate lynx point named Featherswoop, a seal lynx point named Cloudstrike, and a (deceased) chocolate lynx point named Mousepaw or Mouseblaze. Featherswoop is then linked to Flickerclaw on the RiverClan side. They had four kits, a lilac lynx point named Eelfoot, a chocolate lynx point named Birdsplash, a lilac tabby named Puddlepounce, and a black self named Iceshade. Their coat color genetics are noted above each bust.

He's so special to me

digital art of an anthropomorphic fossa character wearing four different outfits. From left to right, he wears a black tank top with avocado print boxers, grey socks, and black slippers. He is yawning and holding a blue coffee cup out to the side, which is sloshing over. The next outfit is a black dress with think straps, platform heeled boots, a black collar, and a red crystal necklace. He has matching red stud earrings and he's winking. Next is a dandelion yellow turtleneck with a red-orange cardigan and blue jeans. He smiles and waves at the viewer. His stud earrings are blue. The final outfit has him wearing a black t-shirt with a green button-up and a duller green coat. He has ripped blue jeans, black and grey fingerless gloves, a black mask, and yellow-tan boots. He looks lost in thought and holds a cigarette in between fingers. He has a gold/brass necklace and his stud earrings are a matching gold color.

Digital sketches of the same character as different species. The most complete is a spotted hyena--in this sketch he is wearing a denim jacket over a t-shirt, which is tucked into his jeans. He also wears chaps and boots with a slight heel. The other sketches are both incomplete headshots--one is him as an otter, smiling widely, and another is a stoat, which looks at the viewer with a smile.

Diagnoses #FurryArt #DigitalArt #FursonaArt

A digital vertically formatted comic in a toony style. It features an anthropomorphic fossa (colored only solid green to differentiate him from the background). He muses to himself "Maybe I do have OCD. But then again, there's a ton of overlap with like... BPD... Autism... OSDD..." He trails off. Under this panel is the text "This would make for a really easy wiki game..." next to a web that shows connections/symptom overlap between OCD, OSDD, ASD, BPD, GAD, and ADHD. The next panel has him appearing somewhat dismayed and fatigued. "Oh, right, that's why I gave this up last time." He looks off into the distance and starts rambling a bit. "These are all just names for groups of symptoms. Kind of like constellations or asterisms. They're stars we tend to see close together, so we can group them, even though sometimes they're thousands of light years apart." In the background are three stars which are linked by written distances instead of lines (55 light years and 1215 light years, respectively). The fossa looks more calm and neutral. "There's no precision in diagnoses, or at least not enough for YOU to be satisfied." This seems to be addressed to himself in the following panel, who replies "It would be really useful though." He smiles a bit resignedly and scratches his head.
