Part 2 of drawing my Animal Crossing Villagers as humans. Second in line was my boy, Biskit.

#my art #ninelivesart #art #digital art #procreate #animal crossing #art 2026 #he was easy for me because this guy talks to the bugs in his floor #wears shirts like that #has those eyes #you know this man gardens recreationally #anyway Biskit was one of my first autofill villagers so we’re long time buddies

Here’s my calendar art for April. She’s supposed to represent April’s birthstone, diamond. And the switch into Taurus season (I made an alternate emerald version for May Tauruses).

I decided to go with a satyr because I just straight up didn’t want to draw a Minotaur.

#my art #ninelivesart #art #art 2026 #digital art #procreate #Taurus #I’m not a fan of the background #and I’m pretty sure working on this triggered my recent art block #but I was determined to get it finished so I could move onto May and Gemini

I’ve been drawing my Animal Crossing villagers as humans in my sketchbook. I decided to throw Ankha into Procreate to clean her up and fix some mistakes. I might do it with the others too.

#my art #ninelivesart #art #digital art #procreate #art 2026 #animal crossing #Ankha acnh #my iPad is starting to die so idk if I’ll do more #I can’t really afford to replace it rn so we’ll see #I’ve been having a lot of fun doing these silly little sketches tho

Happy new year! One of my biggest goals for this year is to finish an entire sketchbook by the end of the year. I’ve always had a hard time keeping a sketchbook, so I really want to push myself into using one regularly. I don’t know if I’ll share every spread (because I want to give myself the freedom not to), but here’s my new year’s spread. I’ve been making wassail every year for the past few years, so here are a few of the ingredients I use. I did this with acrylic paint makers and microns. I originally colored in the background and then immediately hated it and tried to paint over it. But that didn’t work out so it got a little grungy.

I wanted to do a 2025 art wrapped and then realized… I didn’t make a lot of art this year. I can’t say I’m not a little disappointed in myself, but this year has been a bit of a whirlwind. Either way, I have plans for 2026 that I’m pretty excited about. I might make a video about it later. So here is a recap of the art I did in 2025 (minus the animal crossing one because that was just the most recent picture of “myself” that I had saved 😅).

#my art #ninelivesart #art #digital art #art 2025 #2025 wrapped #I want to try and reboot my YouTube channel #so I’ll probably make an art goals video #I just have to actually do that #either way I’ll probably go more into depth on my patreon (which is free btw)

A phoenix for Aries. I live with an Aries so I thought a phoenix was a good representation of them. The first is aquamarine for March. The second is diamond for April.

Part 2 of my calendar. This is my representation of February. I went with Pisces since Pisces season starts in February. She’s purple to represent amethyst (I made an aquamarine version for March Pisces’). She has ash leaves in her hair and some irises nearby. She also has fish on her shoulder armor. She is available on my redbubble shop.

#my art #ninelivesart #art #procreate #digital art #mermaid #February #March #I kind of regret not sticking with my original sketch #where I had an ash tree violets and two fish connected by a rope #I kind of panicked when it started looking too busy since the first one had such a simple background #anyway you can see the original sketch in the process video I posted on TikTok #I also think I kind of like the aquamarine version better even though she wasn’t the original #I’m not a Pisces so I have no dogs in this fight tho #sorry for always making yall a mermaid #but at least you get a cool mythological creature #I’m just scales

Finally started my calendar project I planned (years ago). This is my representation of January. I went with Aquarius since aquarius season starts in January. She’s not an angel, but I wanted her to both show Aquarius being an air sign and a callback to the myth of Ganymede (who was kidnapped by Zeus in the form of an eagle). She wears red to represent garnet (I made an amethyst version for February Aquarians), and she has rowan leaves in her hair. She is available on my redbubble shop.

#my art #ninelivesart #art #procreate #digital art #Aquarius #January birthday #February birthday #I know Aquarius isn’t the start of the zodiac but since it’s a calendar I’ll be going by month #not all of them will be immediately obvious I think #January was pretty easy for me because the myth is so straightforward #some I’m gonna struggle with because I very much don’t want to draw a Minotaur #anyway I tried to give her elf ears so she wasn’t immediately passed off as an angel but I’m aware she will be anyway #I’m not part of the sky daddy fandom so don’t expect any of that from me okie dokie?#also sorry to my January capricorns and February aquarians #I will get to you #if it’s any consolation I’m an October Libra so mine won’t be exactly right either #I will get to you capricorns but you’ll be last I’m sorry #and I tried to account for February Aquarians with the alternate version

Took my son to see Bad Religion and Dropkick Murphys last night! We had so much fun!

#bad religion #dropkick murphys #he said the music isn’t really his vibe but I’m glad I got to do this with him anyway #we’re in agony today tho #every bone and muscle in my body is screaming at me #worth it tho

Anyway I cried on the way home from this appointment today because I’ve never felt so validated in my life.

#just a little life update #I’ve spent so long beating myself up for not being a good artist #or being good at the business end of things #or update schedules #I had people in my life say I was just making excuses to be lazy and I believed it for so long #I mean boo for being chronically ill #but yay for being validated and having an answer

I just wanted to draw my pink demon girl again.

#my art #ninelivesart #art #procreate #digital art #art 2025 #I didn’t even bother with a background #because I actually made this while bedridden for 2 days #my brain could only go so far #anyway I like this character #idk what her name is yet and she has no story other than being cute and knowing it #she’s also real judgy tho #ps shout out to TikTok for flagging this as sexual content and suppressing it #really love not being able to share my art because ‘woman have body’

Come hang out with me if you’re in the area!

I engraved some of my lineart onto craft board just to kind of play around with it. The lines weren’t dark enough after painting so this is me going over them with acrylic ink.

It still needs to be varnished but it was just a fun little experiment.

#my art #ninelivesart #art #art 2025 #I work with a glowforge at work and I have a bunch of these craft board circles #so I wanted to experiment with them #this is actually my second one #I did another one of my crow witch but I used watercolor because I wanted it to retain the natural wood grains #and then I stupidly varnished it with a paintbrush and it smeared EVERYWHERE #it still turned out kinda cool but I learned from my mistake and got a spray varnish 😅#this was also my first real experiment with my new acrylic markers #I’m really liking them #but idk if I’ll keep experimenting with engravings because they’re never dark enough #and I feel like having to darken the lines just sort of ruins the point of it being engraved #anyway not filmed is me bolting from the seat immediately after finishing because I was in agony

#my art #ninelivesart #art #procreate #digital art #sticker #witch #just showing the things I have up in my shop #I’m working on getting the other things put up as well #but honestly idk how much to charge for the prints #every single one of them came in flawed so I don’t want to charge full price #also idk how much shipping will be #and Etsy defaulted the shipping of my other items too high #idk how to change it #stickers are free to ship though

Hey just an fyi

If you are a real human person interested in a commission, please don’t ask me to DM you in a generic reply (especially within minutes of me posting art). I will always assume you’re a bot and not respond.

If you are a real human person interested in a commission, you are more than welcome to DM me and I will gladly answer.

#also commissions stress me out so I do them on a case by case basis #like seriously unless it’s from a piece of media I already like #or a dnd commission (yall are always top notch)#the answer is most likely going to be no

Here’s a quick process video of me making more monster/demon girl stickers. I’m hoping to have them up in my shop this weekend.
