The box I made this weekend as an example during a class! I'll see if I can get some pictures of the students' boxes to share too, they all came out really nice!

Mine is walnut and canary wood

Aw, these are super cute! Very friend shaped 💜

I think I just accidentally agreed to teach a woodworking class this weekend 😶

Three small ceramic figures: a blue fish with darker blue fins, a white goose, and a bluebird - Wryaves ceramics

The same three ceramics figures at a different angle

The same three ceramics figures, though this time the fish is held up so it can be seen better - Wryaves ceramics

My first lil guys came out of the kiln today!
I'm pretty happy with them -- there's a goose, fish, and bird 🪿🐟🐦

Next time, I'll definitely make sure I have a smaller brush before glazing

Two trees and five bushes. The shading for the first tree was done in red marker, with green over it for the leaves. The shading for the second tree was done in reddish violet, with yellow-green over it for the leaves. For comparison, two of the bushes were done how I usually color trees / bushes, with three different value markers of similar hue. The colors didn't mix the way they do with paint, so the red and reddish violet didn't blend nicely like I wanted. - Wryaves art, alcohol markers

Saw some videos where they put down the complimentary color first for the shading, then go over it with the main color, so I decided to experiment!

...it looks like it doesn't work quite as well with alcohol markers 😅 The videos used watercolors lol

It was a fun experiment tho!

I want to make stuff but I get on a plane in a few hours 🛫
Hopefully the desire to make stuff outlasts the flight

Front view of a pancake bunny plushie. The top is a warm brown, the underside is a light tan. It has light tan eyes and nose, and a pale yellow square butter on its head. - Wryaves plushies

Top view of the pancake bunny plush so you can better see the butter and tail - Wryaves plushies

A pancake bunny plushie I made as a white elephant gift the other day!

It was very last minute so I needed to be super quick with making the pattern, cutting, and sewing everything 😅 I think hand sewing the butter closed took longest...

A felt ornament of a Bronze Whaler, propped up against a piece of driftwood. There are oysters around it, and a blue background. The ornament has a fish charm and uses different fishing knots on the string. The other side has the Dredge aberration version of this shark, the Bloodskin Shark.

A felt ornament of a Bloodskin Shark from the game Dredge. This is the other side of the Bronze Whaler. It's propped up on some red lava rocks.

My piece for @dredgefanzine.bsky.social!
The entire pattern is part of the zine, so if anyone wants to make one, check it out! (+ tag me if you do 👀)
It's two sided. -- the Bronze Whaler is one side and the Bloodskin Shark is the other

#dredge #felt #sharks

Super excited to be part of this!
I can't wait for the zine release, I worked really hard on my piece, I hope everyone likes it :D

I really have to start writing down species again, because I feel really silly when months go by and I can no longer remember it 😭

So at what point can I start sharing #Silksong art without worrying about spoilers for people 🤔
Based on steam achievements, most people are more sane than me and therefore have not gotten 3 endings + 99% yet 😔

Cropped picture of me focused on the large sticker on my shirt. The sticker is of a white sign and Hornet wall-clinging to the side of the sign. Written on the sign is "4 days!!! September 4th!" This is the 3rd shirt and 3rd day I've worn this exact sticker (Matsuricon) - Wryaves stickers

Well, I can officially vouch for the durability of my stickers! This one has lasted 3 full con days + being stuck to 3 different shirts ✨
(4 more days!!!! #silksong)

Shxbshx thank youuuu <3
I worked really hard on them

Multiple stacks of stickers. One is of Hornet clinging to the side of a blank sign, the other is of a Moss Creep with a little heart - Wryaves art, stickers

--So I decided to make stickers to bring to Matsuricon 👀✨

I may have made too many 😶

He's wrapped around a pile of gold coins with little hearts and sparkles around his head, and someone in the distance is shouting "HEY! How'd you get in here?!", suggesting he isn't supposed to be there. (Too late, those are his coins now<3) - Wryaves art, art fight attack, Team Fossils, marker art
