🩷 You are brave, but take care of yourselves out there! #booksky #frogandtoad

Frog and Toad from the children’s book “Frog & Toad are Friends” are looking at their reflection in the mirror. Text on the page reads:

“We look brave,” said Frog.

“Yes, but are we?” Asked Toad.

In 2026, do what’s best for you! Grab the brass ring, or just sit back and enjoy the ride. 🎠 Goals are wonderful to have, but don’t forget to enjoy the process and admire the mess. ✨ More whimsy, more magic, more mess in 2026. #illustration #yearofthehorse #artsky #newyear

Illustration: Orange carousel horse on a blue background with large numbers forming 2026. Hand lettered text reads “grab the brass ring or just sit back and enjoy the ride.”

I’ve been seeing a lot of wonderful, “Support Human Artists,” and other anti ai related illustrations lately so I felt inspired to create my own. We do not support genAI in this household. #supporthumanartists #illustration #madewithhumanintelligence

I just think they’re neat. 😌✨🐛🐞 shop.breelundberg.com

Photo of stickers illustrated in a cute style with clear vinyl backing to look like a kritter keeper with a green lid, inside in red letters it says "Bugs are Neat" surrounded by simple butterfly and sparkle shapes.

I can't stop laughing at this description on a vintage tin listing on eBay.

100% genuine old.
You will definitely love it.

Choose 20 pots or ceramic pieces you have made. One pot per day for 20 days, in no particular order. Day 15 the first moth bowl. I hated the bowl, I put moths on it, I loved the bowl. Drawing opaque lines with a brush in underglaze is hard. #brittwilson #pottery #ceramics

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

A poster for the economic blackout on February 28. It is a big red Jack rabbit on an aqua blue back ground. It says economic blackout in hand done black type. There are two black speech bubbles. One says “don’t buy stuff Friday February 28th. The other says we have power. Below it says No Amazon, Walmart, target, gas food, gas. Below that it says OK small business, use cash. Designed by Martha Rich.

with any creative project there comes a point where you need to stop talking about it, stop thinking about it, stop worrying about it, stop asking others about it, stop researching it... and just start making it. and i always, always, always wish i hit that point sooner than i did. #art #design
