Dreaming While Awake

Photography, drawings, and random projects from a restless mind. Here I share my love of many things. My pets, gardening, art, crafts, nature, homesteading, and all things sci-fi and fantasy related. It's a varied landscape, just like I am.

It’s been a pretty warm Autumn. Cool nights but warm days, and no frost in my area. Roses were still blooming up until Halloween...

Just in time for #Halloween. “Stay out of the Woods”.... or you might meet up with this guy....

The moon rising this evening was next level...

“Orko.” is the first thing I’ve drawn since my dog died. I’m trying really hard to start drawing again but it’s been really difficult.

My best friend died today. She turned 16 on April 15th. I waited my whole life to have a dog, in 2006 we found each other, and she gave us so many memories over the fifteen years she was with us. She was challenging, stubborn, quirky but a lot of fun and silly too. I wish they could stay with us forever... Good bye my girlie... I miss you so much.

Spring...

“The Wizard’s House”. Digital. I have no idea... this isn’t my usual thing. It went in a weird direction and is a lot brighter and cheerful than what I usually do.

“Ava Nala.” Pet portrait for a very long time friend’s mother, of one of her many dogs.

[jaxxbfox]

Commissioned by a good friend of her two polydactyl (they have extra toes!) cats. “Sisters”.

Some recent, random speed paintings. Sometimes I just let my brain turn off and do what it wants and stuff like this happens.

“Bound” ©TL 2021. Something different. I miss doing simple line art...

[jaxxbfox]

Art from November through December 2020, and first art of 2021. Drew some pet portraits for a co-worker. And of course, fan art of Miles “Tails” Prower from Sonic the Hedgehog. :) I keep forgetting about this account. Apologies for the prolonged silence.

Oh dang. I haven’t really updated this account in a while. Sorry about that. Summer was a bit of a shit-show. Didn’t draw anything after May. Until recently. I really like Halloween/October. So here are some doodles I’ve done this month. Enjoy! If you want to, I am far more active on twitter: https://twitter.com/bigTpitty

“Spring Silk.” 20hrs Clip studio paint. 

My Grandmother had the most exquisite peony plants... I never appreciated them growing up but near the end, I took many photos. There was one plant with double blooms like pink silk, that smelt strongly of Roses. It was always my favorite, and I wish I knew it's name. .
