A housecat rolls around on its back in such extreme feline bliss the entire scene is drenched in LSD colours and psychedelic textures.
Mistigram: @zeusii.bsky.social II's #ANSIart portrait of Red Sonja is either highly expressionistic, or he'd just partaken in some of those excellent red-capped Swedish forest toadstools before hunkering down to do a highly realistic portrait of his pet...
