And if you have a poodle mix of some kind and you love them, that’s cool. This isn’t a tirade against individual dogs. Dogs are, for the most part, lovable and funny and sweet in all their incarnations. We just need to stop fad-breeding designer dogs.
Wish I could reblog this forever

My mock set up for nightmare nights ;.; so sad that con is gone now...
This hits all the right emotions.

Reblog if you’re 30 or older
This is an experiment to see if there really are as few of us as people think.You can also use this to freak out your followers who think you’re 25 or something. Yay!
Oh goodness yes.
Indeedily Doo.
Welp…
IM SO GODDAMN OLD

- Finished Pieces TM are NOT the only works that matter. That half-lined sketch is good. That page of nothing but shapes and doodles is progress. If you’re doing whatever it is that you CAN do that day, you’re doing well
- take. BREAKS. as often as you need to. stop when you gotta. if you try to dig into tomorrow’s spoons to finish something, trust me, you’re going to hate yourself and whatever you’re working on later
- if you really want to, you CAN draw (or paint, or sculpt, or craft etc.) every day
- everything counts. everything. can’t draw for more than 20 minutes today? you drew. less than 5? you drew. take a pencil and draw three different circles on a sticky note. you drew. lay out your arm and trace whatever comes to mind with you finger. everything counts.
- if you drew SOMETHING today, you gained more experience than someone who did not
- draw whatever you want
- reward yourself for it
- don’t get so wrapped up in something that you forget to eat, drink water or sleep please. if you can’t make yourself care about what it does to your body, remember it WILL affect your productivity, which will lead to Bad Times, again, trust me
- you are SOMEONE’S art goals
- your art is good
- “this person doesn’t know me or my art, how do they know it’s good-” shh. doesn’t matter. its good

D8 I needed this.
Man I'm scared, can you say something reassuring? I think Tumblr's overexaggerations are making me freak out a bit.
Neither Trump nor Hillary can do most of the things people seem to believe they can. While I do feel bad things may happen, they certainly won’t be as bad as tumblr’s predicting.
We won’t be put in concentration camps, or send to mandatory conversion therapy, or have our rights stripped away overnight. We will have every opportunity to speak out and fight anything we believe to be unfair. America’s not going to become North Korea in the span of twenty four hours.
It’s a scary time, but it’s not the end of the world.

SO. MANY. LUNAS!!! XD
Some pony designs are easy. Others involve cutting out intricate little hoof guards for each foot, which takes me most of the day. ;;;
Haven’t added the ink details to these yet but I felt they were pretty enough to show. Cards available on my Etsy! https://www.etsy.com/shop/FlyingCatArtandCards
Welp, I gotta start this blog one way or another. :D This is one of my newer pony card designs, now available on my Etsy! https://www.etsy.com/shop/FlyingCatArtandCards
More to come. Yes. :3
I made a new blog just for my arts and all :D
when artists go to hell they’re forced to draw all the art they promised but never made
D: I just got chills
Officially open for Espurr Inktober hat suggestions! :D
Espurr - The organ that emits its intense psychic power is sheltered by its ears to keep power from leaking out. It has enough psychic energy to blast everything within 300 feet of itself, but it has no control over its power.
Responsible Espurr enthusiasts remember to hat their Espurrs. Send me a hat or hat suggestion all through October, and I will draw an espurr in that hat. SPREAD ESPURR HAT AWARENESS!
Demon the espurr would like to remind you all that an espurr without a hat is a risk to everyone. Winter is coming… put on a hat!
temporary hat while i try and fail at performing espurrception…
You can't fail at espurr-hattery unless you fail to put a hat on an espurr at all!!! D8 They have no control over the power under their ears; all responsible espurr enthusiasts hat their espurrs, and Andy Pandy looks wonderfully dressed for the season! :D

Couldn’t help myself, I had to do a Halloween picture. Meet Nebula and her siblings, who didn’t get to spend much time together in life. But, thanks to a certain spooky holiday, they still get to meet up every year to spend quality candy-and-brains-gathering time together!
If you like this picture (or want to surprise your friend), you can buy it as a print!
Special thanks to @d0gsd0gsd0gs for skelekitty anatomy help.
You shouldn't raise the price of your commissions at all. You make fantastic artwork for 20 dollars. It is a perfect price.
Wow I’m sorry but that made me feel really degraded. I wasn’t going to raise it to $100 or something. It’s a perfect price to a buyer, but my art isn’t worth 20 dollars but that’s not my point.
Yes I know it’s a good deal, but I’m not a robot. Even if I’m someone that “sucked” at drawing, the matter is all about the time spent on my drawings. On average it takes me 6 hours to create 20 dollars worth of a drawing. That’s like 3.3ish dollars an hour. Working all day. Possibly no sleeping until the next day. No breaks except to use the bathroom or to eat 1 cup of ramen or not eat at all. Because of the time limits I’m receiving.
Please keep in mind the only reason people ever charge 20 dollars for a commission is due of the crippling trend of amateur artists selling themselves short at those prices- a trend that artists like Rinji has to compete with. Any self respecting artist knows that is hardly an acceptable price for their works. Rinji knows that. And that is why I applaud them for raising their prices because it is our responsibility as artists to educate people like you that a 20 dollar commission is not a perfect price at all.
I hope you have learned something from this, anon, and please, never, ever assume nor determine the price of an artist’s time if you are the client and they are their own employer. The price is set by them and it is your choice to either comply or move on.
can we talk about how living wage is $15/hr? Can we talk about how artists should have THAT as a baseline, and because they are SKILLED WORKERS IN THEIR PROFESSION, should actually be charging even more? I charge at around $15-$20/hr. My dad’s a freelance graphic designer and has been in the industry for over 20 years; he charges $80/hr. Rinji works at a little over $3/hr can we talk about how the expectation for low commission prices is a issue, or…? because $100 is NOT a ridiculous price. At ALL. That’s ~$16.60/hour for a 6 hour commission, which is cheap as hell. I mean I get why people price the way they do; competition. HOWEVER: Each commissioner is commissioning YOU because they like YOUR style. Usually? People are more than willing to pay more. Fuck, dude. I worked at a place that sold knife sets for like $2000/set, and people ate that shit up. People spend money on whatever they want as long as they know it’ll be quality work that they’ll enjoy.
^This.
We should really be encouraging our fellow artists to charge themselves as they would as a professional. You’re offering your services because you know your art is worth doing business with. If we’re not going to stand up for our own industry, no one will.
