Introduction post!!

Hello, stranger :)

I'm anihorse, but you can also call me Taeri, either one works lol

If you're here from my YouTube channel, welcome!! I make shitposts. I reblog cool art or memes. Sometimes I share snippets of my everyday life.

But I mostly do art! I post some unfinished pieces, sketches, concepts, and, (when I have the motivation) finalized pieces!

I make both fanart and original content! For fanart, I mostly do Hoyoverse games, like Genshin, HSR, or ZZZ.

For original content, I have several major stories that I'm working on, which are: A Study in Stars, AWAKE, and The Universal Player. I have a few more in development that I may sporadically post concepts/art of, but those are little easter eggs for you.

I plan to make much more content for them, both on here and on YouTube, so if you want to learn more, you can follow here or sub on YT.

That's about it from me, so enjoy your stay here on my page! :)

I have organized my original content posts into which stories they're about. You can search their tags on my page by typing asis, tup, or awake!

You know, what I think bothers me the most about media depictions of Christianity is how everyone thinks good actions are what get you into Heaven. From modern Simpsons episodes to Hazbin Hotel, there's this weird de-Jesusifying of Christianity where you just have to be a good person who didn't do anything bad.

In reality, you don't "earn" your way to Heaven by doing good things. Ephesians 2:8-9 is pretty clear about it; "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast."

There's a lot of minutae about how having faith and genuinely following Christ will change your behavior and faith without works is dead, yadda yadda, but you literally cannot go to Heaven EXCEPT through belief in Jesus. It's just weird when things talking about Christianity specifically get that very basic thing wrong.

Also, I just want to add onto this: some people think they aren't "worthy" enough to come to church.

Someone in my life once jokingly said that they'd never go to church because they'd burst into flames the moment they walked through the door.

Church is full of sinners. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God". Romans 3:23. Church is not supposed to the gathering of those "worthy" enough to worship God. Christianity is for everyone, no matter who you are or what sins you've done because all of us are the same before God until we accept Jesus' sacrifice and ask repentance.

But this is also a good reminder for us Christians to reflect Jesus to the people in our lives so they understand that He is there for everyone not just people who do enough good deeds.

"There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Galatians 3:28

We are all one before Christ and the whole point is that none of us are worthy to enter His presence without Jesus.

Another comic for The Universal Player! I am once again back to tackle halftones and I think I got more comfortable with them, next thing is I have to do shading LOL

[anihorse]

[anihorse]

Ok this is the Varka comic I made😂

[anihorse]

[anihorse]

my drawing for valentine's! it's an oc double date lol

this also serves as an explanation to aarsi's and phoebe's hair colors. for a study in stars most of my other characters have naturally colored hair except for phoebe; and as for the universal player, since aarsi's from the real world, she can't have naturally pink hair. um as for ainsley... he's the crown prince in a fantasy game, so let's just say the blue gradient is his natural hair😂

Art for The Universal Player! This is a new character I had to invent for the plot LMAO💀

I wasn't able to make a full on drawing, gift wrapping duties got me😂 So I whipped up a doodle real quick on my notes app. I hope you guys have a wonderful Christmas!!

It's been a while since I drew something for The Universal Player!

This is a poster for the game Aarsi isekais into, called The Lone Knight's Journey (or TLKJ for short). You'll note that Aarsi is not in this poster, because... well... she doesn't exist in game when it's made.

Starting from the front we have the valiant mc of the game, Aariz. Behind him to our right is Asami, the duke's daughter that goes missing (the main plot of the game is Aariz searching for Asami). Behind her is the crown prince Ainsley, and behind him is his father, the emperor (who is currently unnamed, if you guys have suggestions that would help me a lot😭 any name is fine but ideally something old-timey that starts with the letter a)

Hello! It's been a fat minute since I posted on this blog.

I was struggling with some personal things, and also schoolwork and finals. I had a massive art block where anything I came up with seemed wrong and ugly to me, so I've been drawing, but I haven't been posting. Animating, surprisingly, was the only thing that I could do. Which is crazy because I've been drawing for a lot longer than I've been animating😐

Anyways, I'll keep this short, so in a nutshell, I'm back!

I can't guarantee my old posting schedule (which was about once every 3-4 days), it might be more like once a week or every other week, I'm gonna see how it goes. Thank you all for coming to my quick TED talk💜

My final Cutegirltober drawing! This has the prompts for days 15 and 31 combined, Sun and Moon. These two are my ocs Jiayi and Shilin (remember that cheese I mentioned a few drawings ago lol IM NOT CHEATING I SWEAR).

When I designed them a few years ago I had the sun vs moon theme in mind, but originally Jiayi was going to be the sun and Shilin was going to be the moon. I figured, however, that's a common take on the trope, and I wanted to switch them. Of course, Jiayi is still the rambunctious girl while Shilin is the quiet guy, but having their imagery swapped makes for an interesting contrast. At least, I find it fun to subvert the trope lol :)

Happy Halloween, everyone! Get lots of candy🍫
