Nothing like a good doomscrolling session to remind you that the world is on fire, but hey, at least your thumbs are getting a workout
Create or Die: The Artistic Middle Finger to Mediocrity
Create or become another forgettable statistic. Create like your soul depends on it—because it absolutely fucking does.
Juliette Lives
I created this Silo fan art last night in my underground lab. A tribute to a character who refuses to be silenced.
My Holiday Emoji
My Holiday Emoji - Daily Drawing 583
I've never been a 'Christmas' person
Sure, when I was a kid, but life was different back then. As an adult, the holiday season lost its luster. The commercialism, the pressure to buy gifts, and the constant barrage of awful holiday music is maddening.
I do like the lights and some of the festivities, like the German Christmas Markets (Christkindlmarkt), and some of the holiday parties.
But this time of year I’m more focused on winding down and planning the coming year. Rather than getting caught up in the holiday frenzy, I prefer to use this time to reflect on the past year and set goals for the future.
The slower pace allows me to recharge and focus on what truly matters. While I may not embrace all aspects of the traditional Christmas spirit, I find fulfillment in my version of the season - one that prioritizes personal growth, quality time with loved ones, and quiet moments of introspection.
Let's Taco Bout It
When life throws you a curveball, catch it with a taco! Stressed about work? A taco's crunchy shell is like a delicious stress ball. Relationship woes? Share a taco, and watch the love rekindle—because who can argue over a perfect blend of meat, cheese, and salsa? Feeling under the weather? A spicy taco clears the sinuses and lifts the spirit. Need to make a tough decision? Tacos offer clarity with each bite. Whether it's a celebration or a crisis, a taco (or two) brings joy, comfort, and a tasty solution to life's dilemmas. Remember, with tacos, every problem is nacho problem! 🌮

To the Moon!
'To the Moon!' Daily Drawing 563
A quick illustration I knocked out on Sunday morning while watching soccer. I vowed to get back to drawing more, but I often have that creative block of what to draw. As I started doodling, a rocket ship appeared on the page, and I decided to expand on it.
I painted myself into a corner on this one: having been out of practice in Procreate, I did everything on one layer - even the color drops - which left me no wiggle room to move elements or get crazy with shading.
Where is the Sun?
The East Coast went from heatwaves to Fall in a blink of an eye. It’s been rainy, damp and cold and in Philly, we haven’t seen the sun since late last week. Reward for any sightings.
Biff!
BIFF!!!

We woke to find we were gifted a box of Krispy Kreme donuts for Valentine’s Day. I ate one, got a major sugar buzz, then blasted this piece out in under 20 minutes.

One of the lawyers in the impeachment trial said they should come to his office in ‘Phillydelphia’.
