After the con was over (Monday) the sprout had turned into a seedling :3 Rü has gone through hundreds of kind messages now, their grumbles of delight can be heard~ I wonder if they might bring us more growth?

A handmade tree stump prop, pictured in grass, with a few kind messages strewn about. The sprout in the middle of the stump has progressed into a seedling!

Day 3 (Sunday) brought us a little sprout in the middle of the stump! I guess the kind messages are doing something <3 I'm glad people kept up the kind messages!

A handmade tree stump prop, in front of a crate that has a sign that reads "leave kind message, good thing happen? -Rü", all placed upon astroturf; there is a large blue water jug to the left.

Day three: the stump in front of the crate now a sprout in the middle!

Something interesting started to happen on day 2 (Saturday), after people started leaving kind messages! I wonder what Rü is planning?

I forgot to post the last prop I made for #Aurawra2026 <3 it was an evolving prop dedicated to our mascot of chaos, Rü~ This was Day 0-1 (Thursday night/Friday), where it was just a regular old stump ;3c

Two wind turbine props for the stage of #Aurawra2026 <3 a whale shark design and a "standard" blimp design~ The whale shark prop was sold for charity!

First prop that I'd completed for #Aurawra2026 was the Jaune Deer tractor <3 which sold at auction for charity (with some art pieces to go along with it)! It's big, silly, and packs down FLAT!

Plywood tractor painted to look like a John Deere tractor, it's been renamed to the Jaune Deer.

Let's get into the physical items I made for #Aurawra2026 now <3 starting with the handmade gifts for the Guests of Honour! I threw small pots in terracotta, draw each GoH's sona and wrote their names in underglaze pencil, and used a glaze combination the replicated polycrystalline solar panels!

A fun fashion guide for the attendees of #Aurawra2026 that asked for clothing inspiration <3 our stunning main mascots, Billiam, Aster, and Quortney, in a bit of a fashion spread~

Three mascots in thematic outfits on an art nouveau spread. Text is as follows: Aurawra Solar Succession Fashion Guide; So you want to dress to impress for this year's convention? Let our three mascots show you how it's done!

Welcome to the world of Solarpunk fashion <3 outfits and accessories are rooted in the concept of slow fashion; a sustainable approach to style that values quality, ethics, utility, and longevity. Always remember that clothes have no gender... But they do need to cover ya!

Annotations ove the characters read "sunhats, flower crowns, handmade beanies, and other fun headwear are a great addition", "handmade gifts, like friendship bracelets and bandanas, are wonderful accessories.", "appliqué, patches, and embroidery used to add personality and repair existing clothes to extend clothing lifespan.", and "clothes are often light, airy, and/or practical; allowing for comfort, movement, and work."

My batch of staff icons for #Aurawra2026 <3 I love drawing my fellow staff members (aka: my friends) and giving back to them even just a little bit of the love they give me!

With an internal team of cool peeps (the same peeps I work with on theming and yearly logos), I made the con badges <3 I won't add images of the badges themselves (for security?), but they were designed to look like seed packets! Each tier has their own colour and flower associated with it!

11 illustrations of flowers on differently coloured backgrounds.

Now with #Aurawra2026 over, I can share all the fun stuff I got to work on! In terms of the "admin art" I completed, as with every year, I created the Logo subheading (and theming our main logo too!)

182

Hoooooh lordy :'3 I have been away having a time, not a terrible time, I've just really busy at work and in personal life and it has been a little too much to handle at times! I know I took a social media break... But maybe I need a little work break?

Sketch of a snow leopard fursona; they are light blue, with a white chin and royal blue accents, they also have messy purple hair. The expression and overall feeling of the sketch is haggard.

Final ceramics pick up of the term~ but I forgot the instructor wasn't back yet :'3 so, front desk let me in and I unloaded the kilns for her as a surprise! This was an important project, getting new bowls made for the kitties~ V1 (top) was made over 2 years ago when I first started ceramics!

Handmade ceramic cat bowls shown in pairs; top and bottom left bowls are glazed with a blue rim and the name Varian, the next two are glazed with a light green rim and the name Deku, the third set is glazed with a red rim and the name Kara, and the top and bottom right bowls are glazed with a pink rim and the name Rina.

Two handmade ceramic cat bowls, the one pictured on the left is shorter and shallower, while the one on the right is newer and much more tidy looking.

Both have a blue rim and the name Varian written on them.

Please meet Sirius the Crustacean <3 a gift from my ceramics teacher! She had asked what to name a "really anxious crab" and I jokingly just pointed to myself and said, "name it after me, we even stand the same". She left them on my desk when I went into class today 🥹 I love them a lot!

I picked this pretty up from class <3 the "Hope, an anomaly" quests from The War Within caught my heart; it was so beautiful that I had to make my own version (with a few quality of life additions)! I don't know why I'm still surprised that WoW writers really know how to hit artists in their feels!

First ceramics pick up of the year happened over the weekend <3 I FINALLY made myself a tea pet! I thought a chonky Judd (Splatoon) would be clever~ Also in the batch was a FFXIV fat cat plate, a panda for a coworker, and a Lily of the Valley plate for a friend's partner~

Work has been absolutely eating my life and soul, and I haven't had any me time... But then I get to do pretty things like supplying a sales-rep/co-worker and friend with a pretty swatch page of our iroshizuku inks for him to take around to store with him~

I finally finished up the ref sheet for my little guy~ meet Lullaby, he's just a little Kenku, cooking and learning new things after losing his memories! He's been known for mischief and solving riddles before villains have finished reciting them (much to their dismay)! [ #dndart • #dnd • #ttrpg ]

Today is my most favourite~ Irish brekky is actually the tea I have most of in the house because it's malty, so it tastes slightly biscuity! I also forgot to post yesterday's tea =3= Packs a Peach is like a better version of the Lipton Peach iced tea!

My secret box was from my instructor herself 🥺 I've always wanted one of her pieces and these are just SO stunning. The mug is also made from clay she harvested and processed herself from her yard!

Handmade ceramic pieces, on the left is a pond plate glazed in blues and gentle creams, and on the right is a natural deep red clay also glazed in blues.

Extra little detail in the kitty jar is that I hid little pawprints! And also some chocolate before I taped it shut for safety!

My ceramics buds and I decided to do a secret gift exchange this year 💙 this is what I'm putting in the provided box~

Today's tea was interesting, it was fruitier than expected, but the rose flavour really comes through ;0; I'm not the biggest rose flavouring fan, sadly! Unless we're talking about lokum/Turkish delight!

Yesterday was the anniversary of dad's passing, so I just kinda curled up and did calm peaceful things. Yesterday was lemongrass & ginger, which Sol wasn't a fan of and I thought it tasted kinda like lemsip; but today was one of my most fave flavours and Sol really enjoyed it too!
