Will make an actual pinned someday but for now hiiii. I’m Elliott, I’m a 25 yo artist. They/ze. I primarily do digital art but am also a sewist, potter and writer. Norse heathen by religion and disabled (hEDS, Narcolepsy).

I like dnd + drow, folk punk, reptiles and religion very much. I love my stupid ocs and hope to post more about them. My drow + forgotten realms alt is @drowdreaming

I like messy character dynamics/situations and exploration of how they affect characters, and am against harrassment. That being said- I don’t wish to see pedophilia and incest in a positive or sexualized light. Do not come to me with that stuff.

A better world is possible

this is a great time of year to buy from native stores or donate to native organizations. you can figure out who's land you're on here, and below i've listed some (of many) businesses you can support ♡

My favorite shoes in the winter are my Manitobah mukluks, which are Metis-owned and participate heavily in community initiatives with other indigenous nations to train and support artists. They also partner regularly with artists from other nations on their shoes to create custom editions. Currently they are collaborating with Rosa Scribe (Cree), Janae Grass (Sac & Fox), Atheana Picha (Salish), and Melissa Peter-Paul (Mi'kmaw). They also host an indigenous market that showcases and promotes indigenous artists.

Plus they're warm as hell and the sheepskin lining means I don't have to wear socks, which is extremely nice sensory comfort. So that's nice as well.
