'Checking Out the Pollinator Garden'


A brown lop bunny is checking out the town pollinator garden. To the left a white bunny is just vibin'.

There are stepping stones the community made placed in the dirt, and some bees flying around, and part of the fence for the town's outdoor art space is in the background.

This was painted in watercolors, acrylics, and watercolor crayons in a sketchbook and photographed through a Lumix GF2 with a Vivitar Series 1 19-35mm f3.5-4.5 FD-mount zoom lens mounted to it.

'Playing in the Outdoor Art Space'


A group of bunnies are playing in the town art space. One of them is fingerpainting, another is throwing a pot on a portable pottery wheel, a third is making a construction paper collage, and a fourth is drawing on an easel.

The fence is painted with various artwork that the town made over time and is meant as a continuous project that the community can add to at any time, and to the right is a purple art supply shed which had its foundation pad purposefully made bigger than the building itself for the community to sign with pawprints surrounding it.

This was drawn in crayon in a sketchbook and photographed through a Lumix GF2 with a Vivitar Series 1 19-35mm f3.5-4.5 FD-mount zoom lens mounted to it.

'Chilling by the Swings'


A white bunny is chilling by the swings at the parkette. Featured in this drawing are its art corner with artwork that kids drew on the strip of pavement in front of it that's meant as a drawing surface, and three blackboards that had been drawn on as well as some chalk scattered around it, as well as another hopscotch board, the flower bed with more flowers planted in it, and the swingset with a pair of bunnies playing on it.

This was drawn in chalk on the chipboard backing of a newly-depleted sketchbook and photographed through a Lumix GF2 with a Vivitar Series 1 19-35mm f3.5-4.5 FD-mount zoom lens mounted to it.

'Fun at the Parkette'


A pair of bunnies are playing at a parkette in the town center. The amenities shown range from a hopscotch grid made from stepping stones that kids in the community made over time, a dirt pit which had previously been played in, a flower bed, and a slide. Off screen are a swingset, an arts and crafts corner, a water play area, and a spigot and hose that kids can use to either water their flowers or turn the dirt pit into a mud pit at their leisure.

There's also grass growing in around the stepping stones for the hopscotch grid.

So here's my newest art that I've made since Friendica was down.


Since Friendica was down for several days, I lapsed a bit on posting here since then, so I'm doing a multi-pic post to update.

The title of the pieces and full description are going to be in the alt text to not make the main post too long in terms of text.

'One-on-one Art Time in the OT Room'


The Flemish Giant occupational therapist and neurodivergent brown lop bunny are doing a one-on-one art project while another neurodiovergent bunny is chilling on the platform swing in the background.

As both the OT character and brown lop are fingerpainting as part of their art project, they both have different paint colors smudged on them.

I also added a ballpit and a cars rug in the background as well.

'Walking Down the School Hallway'


A Flemish Giant occupational therapist is going down a sweet walk down the school hallway during class time with a neurodivergent brown lop bunny.

This is based on what I remember from my OT days in grade school where I would frequently do this very thing, sometimes even with myself piloting a Roller Racer.

I went with a Flemish Giant for the occupational therapist character because that species is perfect to base a caretaker character around due to its 'gentle giant' nature.

not exactly comics but I do spend a LOT of time making hilarious (says me) photoshop art mostly political = antitrump but I have found a 3am brain blip posts generally get 10x the positive reception as an artwork I spent many hours on so my time is definitely not well spent. However my main goal is mental health not popularity so both are effective at that.
in reply to Manoela Costa

I don't really draw comics, perse, but I draw a lot of cute art. My fave characters to draw are bunnies or rodents because they're really fun characters to draw, and my fave drawing media currently are crayons, chalk, and oil pastels, with crayon and oil pastel art being featured in this post.

My art is more in line with kids' picture books than with comics or manga, basically.

'It's Slime Night under a Clear Sky'


A group of bunnies picked a random grassy area in their playspace to set up a tarp and make slime during a clear night. Two of them made a big bowl of orange slime to share between one another and are stretching it out, while the rest made green, purple, and blue slime for themselves respectively.

The different paint bottles and slime activator are off-screen because I ran out of room on the tarp to put them, but three glue jugs are strewn about with some of them having spilled out a bit onto the tarp as well.

The fireflies also came out for added cuteness.

A pair of white bunnies are playing in an outdoor space that their school made all for them and their friends. They're hopping on stepping stones put in a dirt path for them, and they also got a little playhouse with the entry way signed with pawprints by their friends, as well as a potted flower and a heart stepping stone in front of it, and they also got a toy wheelbarrow with some dirt in it they had been playing with earlier.

A question for my autistic friends. Many autistic people struggle with social interactions and forming relationships, which is why they often feel lonely and isolated. I’d be interested to know how you usually go about making new connections, whether they’re friendships or romantic relationships.

I’d appreciate it if you could boost this so we can get more responses. πŸ™πŸ»

I feel like mine all happened by accident. I started a band when I was in high school so people suddenly didn't seem to think I was weird just "creative" and then later in life my hyperfocus on cooking and preserving suddenly became a hipster hobby topic. It's meant i've met a lot of people without trying much, but friendships and relationships have still always been hard. I have a tiny handful of friends and a large swath of acquaintances. I feel like I constantly disappoint people because who I am doesn't match up with the idea they have about me.

These days between covid, coming out as trans and suddenly not being able to mask in the ways I used to also means my friendships have shifted a lot too. The handful I had has become much smaller, but I also feel happier to finally be myself.

Smartphones made everyone dumber.

- I'm still going to argue the dumbing down of society as far as tech literacy is concerned traces its roots back to Win95 because think about it, prior to Win95, DOS was still very much the dominant OS even with the existence of Win3.x, meaning you had to learn command-line to get around, where when Win95 dropped, it was pretty much just down to 'Pick up the mouse and there 'ya go.'
