Sorry if I'm not posting much but I'm not creating much lately. I have a nasty tendonitis and I still have at least 10 days of recovery ahead :(

have u even been to a bookstore lately u can absolutely judge a book by its cover

That sneaky detail with the crossed fingers really changes the whole vibe. Tiny socks and secret keeping - a clever, slightly devious touch.

Love this piece by Giulia Ferla

A rabbit in overalls and a goat in pants are sitting on the ground drawing pictures. The rabbit is saying “ART POSES A THREAT TO CORPORATOLRATIC SYSTEMS BECAUSE A PURPOSE OF ART IS TO REMIND THE INDIVIDUAL OF THEIR INHERENT AUTONOMY.”, the goat adds “THEIR HUMANITY.”

Two crows are flying through a snowstorm. "I can hardly see a thing!" yells one, "We can't keep going like this!" The other one replies "Let's take a break!" They land in a snow-covered field, the snow is falling gently. "Oh!" exclaims one while looking around at the peaceful scene, "It's so beautiful when you aren't fighting against it."

A small armoured person holding a paddle like staff and wearing a helmet roughly twice as tall as themselves, their armour is greenish.

They do NOT look like a pickle. Don't tell them that! It was an accident!!!

A cartoon of a news report. The picture shows a government official doing a press conference flanked by goons. The headline reads “A man attacked federal bullets with his body” Underneath the picture is a quote saying “those bullets had families”

The upgrade I needed! Now I can see what I'm doing

artwork of the creature from frankenstein (2025). the creature is the central figure, his body abstracted into the swathes of blues and greens, with a tinge of red, with details of furs of his coat and candles lit with red flames. his torso is carved out, exposing red flesh and a heart connected with veins that have some sprouting flowers, and the final scene of the creature embracing the morning sun. framing the creature are various body parts as well as the halves of victor and elizabeth's faces.

i love frankenstein (2025) so much

I didn't know that! But these trees were usually planted alongside fields so I don't think livestock could reach them (but it's possible)

I think they used mulberry mostly for feeding the silk moths and harvesting the fruits but it's possible!

Drawing of a mulberry tree on toned paper (light brown)

Mulberry tree - back in the olden days, they were everywhere in the Italian countryside. Now only a few remain, but I've always been fascinated by these chonky bois with lots of thin branches

Made with ink, gouache and gel pens on toned paper

"You shouldn't make art for the money" buddy I'll take it one step further and say we shouldn't have to labor for capital at all but in the meantime pay an artist
