💜 A few facts on me 💜

Hi :) My name is Ruthi Batash. (Fibey is one of my OCs name.. lol)

I'm a comic and illustration artist, books writer, and video editor.

I love to draw since I was little, art expresses my feelings in the best way.

I'm doing mostly family friendly art, with NO romance or mature contents.

[I am very sensitive, so I will ask you to be kind :) Please don't speak with blunt words and don't show racism against any people, don't talk about anti-Semitism here and not to mention any romantic, sexual or similar content.]

I don't do commissions. For the reason that art is therapy for me and it calms me down to paint when I'm stressed or in any possible situation. It's calm my soul and makes me feel better :)

My art expressing my feelings.

I have my own inner world that I created, and there in my world I have characters that some of them I created myself together with my little brother, and some of them I "adopted" from nostalgic films and series that are no longer broadcast anywhere, and this is to perpetuate their memory in the best possible way.

I like to create many plots about Disney fairies mainly and also about my characters, and they all live in harmony together in my world.

I have an account that there I'm posting my writing and my fictional stories. see them here.

I like to create comics and illustrations for fun :)

I'm a big fan of Disney fairies.

I don't support AI generate.

One of my comic books has already been published in 2024, currently it is only available in the Hebrew language. But as soon as an English translation version comes out, I will announce it.

My dream is to continue publishing more of my books and open my own studio :)

I believe that everyone can achieve the dreams they want. So NEVER give up on your dreams!✨️

Please, don't remove my credits from my posts, there are very important to me 💜.

Now it’s my turn for asking 😁

What I like most about Zarina is her willpower, her boldness, and her courage to continue learning and trying new things that none of the fairies had tried before for fear of danger.

I like how she revealed to the world that she was a pioneer, and the song “Who I Am” accompanied me throughout high school (as an introvert shy girl) and helped me believe in myself on the way to come my dream to life.

What is your favorite quality about Zarina?

First things first, thank you for the question! I do also like the song “Who I Am”…but for me, I think the main things I love about Zarina are

1. Her appearance, especially in her pirate dress! I love her auburn hair, but she also looks pretty in her dust-keeper outfit.

2. Her intelligence, her alchemy, and just her geeking out over Pixie Dust 😍 I can see why some people refer to her as neurodivergent…and honestly I would LOVE to listen to her ramble about dust.

3. This may seem kinda odd…but I love her hand gestures in some parts of the movie. More specifically when she says “Well, yes, I know, but WHY is the question!” And “Alchemy. Pixie dust alchemy.”

[fibey234]

Really agree with that!!!

The character design of Zarina is amazing and calculated to the details :) And I would love to listen her talk about pixie dust and alchemy too.

I think she has great potential to be the scientist of Pixie Hollow!!

Working on some new merch about the seasonal ministers 🥲🫠

I’ll try to make them as handmade epoxy keychains with some flower beads..

I was harassed today in the private chat, I still don't know if it was a scammer, a bot or a real person.

Whoever it was, they really likes to investigate and touch on sensitive points and delve into personal issues and wanted to squeeze sensitive information out of me.

Their attitude was very flattering and toxic, and even though I made it clear to him nicely that I didn't want to continue talking to them, they didn't give up and continued to ask me questions about sensitive topics.

In the end, I blocked and reported them. And this move caused my entire chat with him to be permanently deleted.

Unfortunately, I don't have any screenshots except for their username, I would like you to see what the topic of the conversation was about, but apparently that's how Hashem wanted to happen.

So that there won't be a trace left.

It was really aggressive, and in my opinion even very serious sexual harassment.

I just wanted to let you know and warn - if someone approaches you in the private chat and you don't know them but they get into sensitive or dangerous topics with you, just don't talk with them. Report them immediately.

Happy birthday to my book 🥹🫶🏼

Today, two years ago, on Shavuot eve (during the holiday’s preparations before the chag began), my production manager informed me of the birth of my book into the world.🥹

I was overwhelmed. I cried a lot from excitement.

I was fighting for my dream to publish my comic book during 11 years!!! From 2013 until 2024, and then it finally happened.

After Shavuot holiday, I did two parties in honor of my comic book launch, one of them was a surprise party from my publishing team, and was soooooo excited..

My marketing manager called me to the conference room, without me knowing why. Then everyone applauded me when I walked in. Everything was so beautifully arranged, a bottle of champagne on the table, and everyone raised a glass to me. It was an unforgettable event.🥹

The second one, was about six months later, in the winter of 2025.

My best friend and I organized a big launch ceremony and invited guests, and even though I am a very introverted and shy person, I did not give up on telling my story in front of a large audience watching me. Maybe one day I will share my personal story… but for now I will continue to remain anonymous and share my art.🫶🏼

(Anyone who knows me on Instagram already knows my story, I'm more active there)

By the way… all of this happened during the war.

It was my light, my hope in the darkness.🤍

Wounded // Ruthi .B.

I’m so wounded.. I don’t even know what to feel..

I’m so wounded That I always think something is going to happen in every moment. I can’t feel safe or comfortable..

But I’m trying.

I am really trying to heal myself. I draw a lot of my feelings to get them out, just not to keep them in my heart.

Trying to do everything else…

Going to a workday, but still the traumas floating around me..

The sounds.. the visuals I saw during those horrific days..

My imaginary friends always hug me. They’re always telling me that it’s okay to cry, it’s ok to break, it’s ok to feel sad, it’s ok to think.

I'm fighting for the truth, I’m fighting for feeling safe and happy as before everything happened.

Before October 7th 2023..

I know Hashem is by my side. Always 🤍 I believe I can win those thoughts B”H.

I know I’m stronger than I think…

And I know that every little thing I do, like go outside to the nature, smell flowers, listen to the birds, smile to someone in the street, hug a friend, laugh with my brother, listen to music, talk my feelings with a good trusted friend, draw my emotions as my characters, are good and help me to heal myself and my wounded mind.

I know I have so many dreams to fulfill and fight for them, and that gives me more strength.

So.. I might be wounded, but I love myself because I’m a fighter that doesn’t give up on her dreams.

I’m a survivor.

The magic in the little things

I felt an emotional flood today.. It was supposed to be a little comic to vent my emotions, but it finally came to life in my After Effects software.....

Too much toxic content on social media… fear, anxieties, traumas that are still trying to heal… all together made me feel overwhelmed, that I had to convey art.

As I said, Minister of Spring expresses the anticipation of better days, like the warm spring after cold winter.

[fibey234]

Tinkerbell & Terence the best friends 🦋

I need to draw them MORE 😭 they were my crush when I was 14 years old 🥹💛

I have a lot of drawings of them, on regular paper sheets.. from 2012 to 2017.. And a loooottt of fanfics about them… lol.

They are just so cute and funny 🤗.

You don't deserve any of the shit people put you through. You're such lovely people and I wish everyone could see that.

The background is a REAL PHOTOGRAPH I took in my iPad, when I was in the train.

I LOVE the train sm.

In their death they commanded us life.💔🥀

May their memory be a blessing ❤️‍🩹🤍

Still processing…❤️‍🩹

והפעם מזווית ראייתו של שר האביב: יקינטון הקטן שלי (בגרסא שלי) חווה את המלחמה בצורה ממש מאתגר. הוא רגיש מאוד, כמוני. וכמו כל תושבי העולם הפנימי שלי, הוא סופג את האנרגיות החיצוניות דרכי.. ולאחרונה אני באמת מרגישה צורך לבטא רגשות דרך הציורים שלי בצורה כזו למרות שקשה לי לפרסם כאלה.

(הבוסית שלי כבר יודעת שאני חווה הצפות רגשיות ובמקרים הללו אני חייבת להפסיק הכל, לצאת החוצה ולבטא את הרגשות שלי)

זה אחד מיני רבים מתוך ציורי הביטוי שלי שאני מציירת לצורך פריקת רגשות עמוקים.

יש לי עוד המון קומיקסים וציורים שמעולם עדיין לא פרסמתי, שנועדו עבור התרפיה האישית שלי.

אני קוראת לזה - יומן רגשות וויזואלי..

And this time from the Spring Minister’s POV: Little Hyacinth experienced those 3 years of war in a really challenging way. (He is very sensitive, like me..) And like all the inhabitants of my inner world, he absorbs the external energies through me.. And recently I really feel the need to express my feelings through drawing in this way even though it is difficult for me to post them.

This is just ONE of many of my expressive artworks that I draw to release deep pain and feelings. I have many more comics and arts that I have never posted yet, intended for my personal therapy.

(And Hyacinth is my favorite fairy character, so…🧚🏻)

I’m post-traumatic. And even in casefires between the rounds I still feel very stressed and I feel something like hard sadness.. I allow myself to cry when I feel emotional flooding. Even in my work in the office. My boss already knows that I still need to process what I’ve go through during this endless war..

I call it “Visual Emotion Diary”. This is my way to cope with my traumas. It’s my therapy..
