✨ Got to make this cute lil guy for Mae! Thank you always ✨ We did a similar creature like a WHOLE year ago (wth) and I drew Mae two vague concepts which she chose from, but she said she wanted to get the other one done at somepoint, so here we are! Would absolutely love to do more guys like this! Sooooo much fun 👉👈 I love body horror and creatures so much teehee 🌝

I had a day off yesterday and I did some things. Nothing super exciting but here are the things!!
Do you care?
I have no idea but I`m posting it anyway 🙃
-Made a chickpea stew. I am fully obsessed with making stew in the slow cooker. What an absolute game changer. (Some of you will know this already with how much I go on about it)
-Did a pole class at @thepolecoven.portsmouth I started going late Nov and I am enjoying it so so much 😭 I need exercise to be fun or I simply will not do it lol. Please ignore the sorry state of my socks though, what the heck 🫠
-Adam made us a lil picnic and we went to the beach because the weather was so good yesterday! So many cute doggos 😭
-Went home and did some design stuff while petting the children. 🐱🐱
-Did some reading while listening to some jungle mix thing on YouTube. Most of my YouTube suggestions are weird music mixes lol. I`m currently reading Hunting Adeline and while I don`t love it I am getting through it quite quickly so whateveeeeer
If you enjoyed this let me know, if you didn`t please don`t ✨
(and that I`ve taken videos of????) thank u always 🙏🙏🙏 ya`ll are the best and I am so, so grateful
