Kittens

When it comes to art, I’m still super broken and I basically never get further than drawing a head in a sketchbook before my body collapses. And a key reason for the extra ugly downfall is… KIT...

I made a keychain

Health update first, as has become my habit: IT BAD.

I am still baffled over how many times I *almost* got over the hump, only for some RIDICULOUS bad luck event to destroy me.

We know...

Months and months…

It’s a little sketch. A sketch that would be 20 minutes of work to the old Chrispy, while at a convention, drawn as I talked to a client about their idea, so they could approve the thumbnail and ...

Would if I Could

I finally got a clear week - first one since early November - and indeed I suddenly looked down to find myself doing chores and idly sketching, cuz it was the immense pain blocking me.

I deci...

The Blueybacle

It’s me, so everything is at mimimim a *little* cursed at all times.

On to the next cycle…

TL;DR - I got my Botox injections, so treatment has resumed. And I use some energy on a Fancy Feast drawing in order to have something to share here and justify writing this update:

So we kno...

None of this has been fair

Tried shaking off some rust with Rhenna and Aaron sketches. Don’t have to be good. Just gotta be SOMETHING. And it’s just about the ONLY thing done in months. Took fasting, resting/resetting in...

Better photos?

What has happened to me is both typical and absolutely beyond what should be possible. Doctors made mistakes and refused to acknowledge them. Then they ignored a dozen calls/letters pointing out I ...

It’s so bad, so look at kittens

I am currently suffering from some truly evil actions from my doctor, and I can’t even focus enough to doodle right now. I do not have the energy left to fight properly, and that is being exploit...

Donation Drive Art is gaining COLOR

Ok, so, I thought a newer post was here. But, uh, I left a post for this place in my drafts by mistake. And now I’ve gotta write a new one, as I’ve taken multiple steps since then, WHICH I SHOU...

Another slow step

First, the medical update: After my tragedy combo, my body had to hold out until my next Botox injections. Instead, it crashed a few weeks early with me (apparently?) TMJ-ing to the point every mea...

Another foster kitten

The health update is I’m near the end of the 3-month Botox limbo, where it simply didn’t/couldn’t do anything to improve me because so much bad stuff happened to my body that the damage was t...

Adoption Bribes

If you follow my Twitter - @chrispco - you know me fostering kittens always ends in my body giving out, because if I’m gonna take the hit, I’m not doing a task half-assed!

This time I was...

It’s a continue?

Because I’m a huge fragile baby, all it took was some unproductive physical therapy visits to grind me to a halt. But I did get some more done before that… I just forgot to post them here!

It’s a start…

I had held out hope for a miracle recovery, but it does seem I need to earn my way back from all the horrors I experienced this years.

Well, I don’t really have proper PROOF I’m now star...

Weed Kitty

I did not plan for this dumb joke to be the lone “finished” piece of artwork done during this cursed and tragic period of Worst Botox Cycle Yet, but it happened, and I might as well post it. 2022-07-10 15:59:26 +0000 UTC View Post

One more week…

Another filler post just to say I’m here, I’m still waiting for my function window, and I’m sorry.

This nightmare stretch of errors and delays finally had a chance to end, when I get my...

A bajillion directions

Here’s your reminder I was chipping away at a bunch of ideas, cuz my meds had finally been fixed after 6 months of me pointing out what needed to be done, and then I got screwed by insurance big ...

Power Children

I am currently fostering a litter of five kittens. They are taking up a lot of time that could go to sketching, but I’m fairly certain no one will complain over cat pics while I let my brain perc...

A Cursed Life

Stop me if you’ve heard this before: A doc - who is most know for making lots of mistakes, while having a big ego that refuses to admit wrongdoing - is told a med plan is turning out to be a mist...

The Big Dipper

I couldn’t choose just 4 to put in a Twitter post, so I went over here, where 10 are allowed.

I was trying to get Pearl to play for photos, but they got sabotaged by her moving too fast, t...

Aaron Overflow

Ok, did I really post my quick ref sketchbook pages before I finished Aaron’s? If so, here he is. I suppose I was waiting to finish Phoebe’s - since I technically have a Meret ref already - for...

The Surname Debacle

DISCLAIMER/ASIDE:

(It took waaaay too long to get the post done, after I wrote most on my phone in a quick burst. But it's superbruise procedure recovery week, so maaaaaaybe plan...
