A crop of a larger digital painting with soft glowing edges. A Calico kitten with an orange collar lifts its head for pets, nestled against a white woman's arm. A held book is behind them. The background has a field of daffodils.

It was an honour to submit joyful Welsh art to @taplingzines.bsky.social's queer history zine. The Kickstarter launches on Tuesday, and early bird discounts are limited—you can be notified when the Kickstarter goes live to get one!

A full body charcoal sketch of a slim woman at a low angle. She has fabric wrapped over her shoulders, lifting it with one hand as her other rests by her forehead. One leg is bent with the other extended to the camera. Her face and some other areas are purposely left unrefined.

*taxpayer money

I am so tired of this TERF island.

Don't we love taxpayer being used for a pointless review on something that has already been proven to have positive outcomes, then pretend there is no evidence by purposefully narrowing it down into something insufficient?

New NHS England Review Excluded 97% Of All Trans Studies To Say Care Doesn't Work The new review has led to a ban for HRT through the NHS England system under the age of 18.

So the new NHS England's review to say evidence that HRT helps trans youth is low excluded *97%* of the 547 screened studies to come to that conclusion. As in, they purposely guaranteed this outcome exactly as they've done many times before.

A five-image grid with two squares on top and three on the bottom, all featuring cropped art of dogs from the We've Always Been Here zine. All are rendered in very different styles, two are traditional art while three are digital, and they are in a wide variety of poses.

Throughout our zine's Kickstarter, we'll be sharing collections of queer and cultural identities (and some other themes) featured in the book!

But, to start, let's show off some of the dogs of the zine! Aren't they all so cute? 🐶

A crop from a larger watercolor illustration depicting two black cowboys on horses. They are leaning towards in an intimate way, and there is a faint rainbow in the sky above them.

I love the movement in this!

Seelys as a godly figure stands atop a pile or rocks just clothed in a thin transparent veil, holding a spear. Behind her a stormy sky looks like wings of fire

fanart illustration of the Duchess from the video game Sorry We're Closed the illustration is light, airy, colour scheme is pearlescent. the duchess is standing tall in the middle, between two pillars, light clear sky and lavender sheer curtains behind them, pink roses covering the pearlescent floor. their skin is dark, hair long pale blond, flowy and dragging on the floor, blonde unibrow extending into winged shapes, 4 wings on their back, their outfit is matching the pearlescent tones. a golden crown on their head and a pink gemstone heart on their chest. their expression is elegant and poised and they look down at the viewer

it's an empty existence without it.

Big colours are down on my TDOV piece 🙏🏻 It's rough at this stage but I'm glad it's now ready to render another time. Especially excited to try out painting wings in soft pastel.

Fantastic, thank you so much! I totally forgot the names of these, I'll look into them. Would have loved to have just used my Carrd but I know a clean site would be preferred by some haha, I appreciate the reminder there too though so I have an option until I can put a site together!

I do have a Carrd already that just needs updating to use in the meantime! Just thought something more sophisticated would be ideal in the future. 💙

With how social media is, and also my increased capacity allowing me to start applying to galleries, I could really do with finally making a website. Just a bit bewildered on how to actually get that started! Artist friends, help? 😅

We’ve already raised over 1000€ more since this post—that’s incredible! Let’s get this funded to preserve our joyous queer histories!! 🎉

Thank you all so much for supporting the nearly 60 artists who came together for this project!

Oh wow that's wild! I once had an appendectomy 24 hours later but that's only because it was through urgent care (hadn't burst but was On The Way), I suppose if it's minor they could have had a cancellation? Good luck! 💙

Not content to just steal from the real deal, this game is also ripping off fan designs 😬

Something nice today among the horrors: I was able to make a small start to Age of Imprisonment, as I knew the beginning would be cutscenes and easy fights. Absolutely such a delight to already have glimpses of lore. The music and going back to this world in its canon prequel is 🥺

seals!!!
This was a fun one to draw

I know! This is a kind of companionship that is not needed 😂

Unfortunately pain meds specifically only work on gut pain for me, I'll just have to ride it out. Ones like this usually are only intense for a couple days, it's just horrible when it's there! I hope your pain is more bearable now too. 💙

I should have known what was coming when my joints and surgery nerve damage were above baseline yesterday... Alas 😔

I'm getting restless for finishing up a couple of WIPs and painting my TDOV piece, but my recovery from going out briefly last week led into a pollen/weather severe flare and I'm in such intense pain everywhere. Ughh let me do art please!

Still, should finish at least one in a few days hopefully?

drew a very refined lady for a commission ! 🐶✨

US folks: this is the only tariff-free time to get the zine and merch (and with affordable shipping!)

Group packs (like 5x the book) are also available at discount too, to spread this queer joy with friends!

drawing of modern au hubert, with a funny view from above - as if he's some little bug under a lifted rock - looking up on the viewer, with his scary little stare. he's in his raincoat, has a pierced eyebrow, cross necklace and he holds a cup of coffee in blue color, from left and right side of the picture, there's a distorted copies of the same hubert. on the background there is pedestrian crosswalk marks

why did bertie cross the road?

Pen drawing of multiple beings made of black void of space with symbols and patterns in white adorning their bodies like jewelry or tattoos while the one more prominently front and center looks to contain stars or is a portal to deep space. They stand in front of a series of pillars with different alien faces embedded in them along with various stone and bone arches and shapes that flow upwards towards ruins that are vaguely Roman aqueduct in nature that flow up into walls that look like a ruined stone castle or cathedral set beneath a purplish blue sky with shadowy artificial structures barely visible and stars shining in the sky.
