When I’m doing anything else I just wanna paint. When I sit to paint I wanna do anything else. This is very cool and normal I think and not at all a byproduct of ennui and burnout

Digital art of a closeup on the face of the new Pokemon Pombon. The entire screen is orange and his face sits in the center.
I started a silly animation in the wake of all the #pokemon30 #pokemonwindandwaves hype. Then I realized the first frame would make a perfect phone background.
Please enjoy Pombon face. Lemme know if you download and love it! 💖

Bartolomeo is my favorite One Piece cameo character so far and it’s not even close.
Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.
So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:
A picture of Jamie wearing a sweater with a line down the middle separating it into distinct black and white halves. Her sleeve is rolled up and she wears black rimmed glasses, gold earrings and a gold dagger necklace. Her hair is up in a ponytail.

Oooh I was very generously sent home from PAX with the minis from this set! I’ll be painting them soon!
we're all thinking it
Now THIS is the kind of tip I was hoping for. My experience with writing platforms is admittedly little, so I’ll have to check those out!!!
Ohh yeah. I’m a fan of the 1-3-5 rules
1 shower/rinse off per day
3 meals
5 hours of sleep minimum
I’ve been toying around with the idea of starting a Substack to document best practices that I’ve developed over the past 5 years as a freelance artist, streamer, and game dev.
This would include con tips, networking secrets, etc.
Anyone have any thoughts/tips?

Omg thank you so much. Especially for the alt text comment 😅 I’m always anxious about whether I’ve done it well or not!
I also do a lot of reading while I paint (idk what I’d do without the Libby app and local libraries tbh) here’s what I’ve been listening to while I’ve been painting!

A hand painted miniature of a skeleton with hands raised in a cheer. A pumpkin replaces the skull which now rests on the ground between the skeleton’s legs. A gravestone with lit red candles stands behind the skeleton. Light from the candles illuminates the skeleton.
A hand painted resin miniature of an octopus with a breathing mask on, flanked by airbrushes that the octopus’ tentacles hold at the ready. The octopus is wearing a witches hat and is accompanied by small bats hovering above. A plaque on the base of the piece reads “spraygunner”
A handpainted miniature of a stylized jack o lantern. The miniature doubles as an airbrush holder, and is demonstrating this with a silver airbrush stationed on top of the miniature. The bat’s wings are visible above either side of the pumpkin. A small plaque below the pumpkin reads “Happy Halloween”
Two hand painted miniatures of armored knights. One wears a full coat of chain mail and a Greathelm, wielding a flail and a large kite shield styled with an acorn on a field of gold. The other knight wears a red surcoat over a chain shirt with a leather cap and wields both a spear and sword.
Here’s a little roundup of some painting I did in October! (Check alt text for details)

Today on stream I painted my first Iron Sultanate model! Ninj0n gave me a few of his color cards at NOVA and instead of a 4 color Friday, we took a stab at 5!
I’m VERY lost in the @trenchcrusade.bsky.social sauce rn and couldn’t be happier.
#trenchcrusade #minipainting #nerdlings #artstream
Honestly I’m inclined to agree
Love this!! I’ll admit, Sultanate wasn’t my first choice but the more I see the more I like!
It’s good to have ambition, but it’s better to have follow-through.
Very excited rn because the manuscript for Lyctor is being submitted this week right before I spend all weekend demoing it at NOVA Open!

Wednesday is statistically the most boring workday. Lucky for you, I’m streaming! Do something more exciting like watching paint dry with me!
Painting a bust for NOVA Open! Come join the fun 🥰

If the pen is mightier than the sword, surely the paintbrush is even stronger
Beautiful work. They’re terrific!!!
Omg these are amazing! I am obsessed with the spiderweb one!! Do you just make these for personal use??
