Polished the lights and added ambient darkness. This creates an evening effect outdoors, which goes well with @queergermangirl.bsky.social's 'Night Breeze' track! Ignore the bright interior windows for now...

It may look like I’m not active here anymore — no new artworks. The truth is, my time is split in two: 60% goes into my daily job, and the 40% I’m pouring into building my own type foundry and development of my font shop from scratch. I’d love to be more active here again once things settle a bit.

idle animation for @finessefantasy.bsky.social's Kolossekin character Jyambazi!

tried to capture the contrast between her good-natured demeanor and the immense power conferred by her Behemoth ancestry

a lot of fun getting to work on this character again!

A sky-blue drake walks through the forest and encounters a fawn. It’s the first time the drake has ever seen one. Curious, it reaches out to touch the fawn, but the fawn becomes frightened.

A sky‑blue dragon is lying in a cave with a cat, and together they watch two youngsters playing in the sky, their flames lighting up the whole scene.

I was getting pretty tired of how every website builder comes with limitations, missing features, or basic things locked behind higher pricing plans.

So I set out to develop my website completely from scratch — and I love the endless freedom.

Just like this light–dark switch feature 😍

You did good decision and I’m glad I’m not only one who sees IG this way <3

I just find Instagram to be more like a curated magazine and a Meta AI farm, controlled by ever-shifting algorithms, and I will not be part of it. So Bluesky is my go-to platform now ✨🦋

I'm leaving Instagram for good to pursue art and typography, embracing my true self as an artist, not a trend-chasing content creator bound by algorithms. I feel truly liberated now.

🥹🙏🏻

- Publish comic strip a week
- Go 100% full-time as a pixel artist & type designer

Thank you to everyone who supported me — by following, commenting, liking, or buying my fonts 🐉
And thank you to my family and friends. Without you, this journey wouldn’t be possible ❤️

Wishing you an amazing 2026 ✨

It wasn’t an easy year — especially financially.
There were moments of doubt and fear.

But despite everything, I grew. A lot.
As an artist. And as a human.

My goals for 2026:
- At least 30 high-quality pixel fonts
- Create as much art as possible
- More focused art studies
(3/4)

In 2025, I:
- Created a small pixel comic series
- Learned a ton about pixel art, animation, anatomy, composition & design
- Became a web designer / developer
- Met many amazing artists and gained new followers
- Lived 4 months as a full-time artist — one of the best periods of my life

Collage of my 2025 artworks and projects, arranged from left to right and top to bottom. It includes pixel art dragons (Breeze of Skies, The Spark Caster, Dragonfly, Woodland Mage), three strips from the 8BitDrake pixel comic series (No. 1, No. 2, No. 3), character and environment studies (character study, sunset study, rosehip study), Pixel Dailies entries (#MiniatureGarden and #Acorn), and two pixel fonts: EXSpace and minibyte.

2025 changed my life more than I ever expected.

I chose #pixelart as my career path.
I found my own style.
I started drawing dragons — a dream I had for years.
I discovered my passion for type design…
…and I made my first sale ever.

This collage is basically my whole year in one image 👇

I feel sorry for you, I know this struggle very well 😖

A sky‑blue dragonet hatched from his egg and set out to explore the world. The first thing to catch his curiosity is a reddish rose.
