• "happy birthday to my favourite cancerian, @miltontorreslara 🦀🤍

i spent so long on this and wasn't sure i'd be able to finish it because of the debilitating heatwaves, but i made it 🙌🏻

i hope you like it milton, you inspire me so much both as an actor/artist and a kind human, manifesting all the cool opportunities your way so you can truly show off your talent and i get to see you on my screen more and support you in all your endeavours 🫶🏻

i wanted to highlight your heritage as well as work with cancerian symbolism, so i depicted the el salvador native jade vine (which also looks like pincers) as well as brugmansia, the angel trumpets, often associated with cancer's ruler, the moon. i had a lot of fun incorporating art nouveau into my work as well 🤍"

i didn't manage a lot of finished pieces this year, but there's so much more in my wip folder and sketchbook, 2025 year of being scattered and losing momentum i guess.

but this year i also allowed myself to draw more for fun, to draw fanart and doodles that i wouldn't put in my portfolio which is also important for my well being. it was a year of rest, thinking, putting things in motion even if it doesn't yield results yet. hoping that some of these take a more active form in 2026, especially as i'll be entering my 10th house profection year 🤞🏻

posting my illustration(s) of daniel as the still images so you can appreciate it a little better and look at the details 🫶🏻

he is truly my laura palmer 🙂‍↕️

re: what started as a simple study became an exploration of daniel's death, of stacey's kindness a foreboding of evil and cruelty, of the woods claiming a boy whose only fault was being too much, too loud, too defiant in the face of abuse.

Soon, it'll be like it never happened.

(wrong, i will never forget you daniel)

literally crying while making this but here is my illustration of daniel from wayward, what started as a simple study became an animated exploration of daniel's death, of stacey's kindness a foreboding of evil and cruelty, of the woods claiming a boy whose only fault was being too much, too loud, too defiant in the face of abuse.

had so much fun with the old vhs glitches 🫶🏻

“Because the world is so full of death and horror, I try again and again to console my heart and pick the flowers that grow in the midst of hell.”

my piece for the blooming + journey prompts of the #augustadventures challenge, though i feel it could fit the ancient prompt as well.

initially i wanted to illustrate the journey of persephone, but i think this can speak to what she represents as well, the cycles of life and death, of rebirth.

from blooming spring and fruit, to rot, to bones and the dead, persephone is associated with bats, urns, pomegranates and asphodels.

✷ 𝕭𝖊𝖑𝖙𝖆𝖓𝖊 ✷

on the night between april thirtieth and the first of may, you may encounter the spirit of beltane wandering the flower fields and misty forests, smoke rising from its eyes, burning bright. upon its head sits a clover crown and the fae folk are never far. it is said if you drink the first morning dew on may the first, sitting atop bluebell and foxglove petals, you will be blessed with abundance and prosperity.
