something a bit different for me as man-made structures are not my forte - water towers of Glasgow and East Kilbride 💧🩶🗼

- Greenhills water tower
- Drumchapel water tower
- Garthamlock and Craigend water towers
- Cranhill water tower

t-shirts featuring my illustration to raise funds for The Sameer Project 🕊️🫒 they're a donations based, Palestinian-led initiative providing an emergency response and funding to the displaced families in Gaza 🇵🇸

Of course there are generally too many dogs needing homes, the pet trade ties into this as folk keep creating more dogs for profit when so many need adopting, but the fact that rehoming can be difficult doesn’t equal a reason to keep endlessly producing hounds and upholding fox hunting

rather than being euthanised when no longer ‘useful’, or caught in a breeding cycle to keep producing more to be exploited and eventually discarded. Hunt people’s lives are so steeped in exploitation & brutality that they genuinely seem incapable of imagining existence without it

Existing hounds ought to be rehomed (either as individuals if possible or in groups for those who can’t be without a pack), and allowed to live out the rest of their natural lives where they are cared for unconditionally, rather than only because they serve a means to an end

last week the hunt claimed sabs are going to be responsible for the death of hounds if hunting comes to a true end up here, but them saying
“We admit we’ll kill all our dogs as soon as we can no longer use them for what we want” isn’t the mic-drop moment they seem to think it is

excellent food at Suissi Vegan Kitchen (Glasgow) as always 💛🍜

🏔️🕵️♠️🪵🃏🥧🎠

the fastest two hours has ever gone by. so excited to see these after the kiln

hilarious scenes on Saturday where the huntsman was so riled up by sabs being present in the field that he came up to me and started telling me that my drawings are shit and then proceeded to throw a handful of biscuits at us

follow Glasgow Hunt Sabs for more

found a newt on the pavement nowhere near water, they were dried up and we thought they were dead but they wriggled slightly after having water poured on them, then after a bit of sun they were moving! we found a body of water and left them near the edge, I hope they make it :’)

Still thinking about this

good luck to all the folk heading out into the field tomorrow 🖤🦊
support the Hunt Saboteurs Association

more work in progress 🐦‍⬛✍🏻 grateful for this commission ✨ drawn with faber castell polychromos pencils

today I went and saw the crane that showed up in Motherwell a couple of days ago! what an incredible bird to see. apparently this individual is the first confirmed crane record for the Clyde area since 1998??

various forms of vegan pancakes last night 🥞🫐 I am such a sucker for sickly sweetness on Pancake Day and kept going back for homemade chocolate almond spread, PB and golden syrup combo 🥜🍫
