Hello guys, I hope you're doing fine!

Here's is an old-ish drawing that I thought would be great to welcome Spring!

Now I will be honest, I made the drawing but had no idea where to put those two... I thought about them jumping on each other in the entryway...

Then I got the idea of a picnic, them looking wild and free in the open... but then I thought it would be odd for them to act like this in public, like in a public park 😂

So I came up with a more secluded environement. Looks a lot like we have in my region, I swim more often in the river as I do in a pool. I wanted to make more food on the blanket but I lacked time and I thought it would look too buzy anyway.I think it looks a little messy and too colorful... we'll see how I feel about it in a few months.

Next week we'll have a Persephone x Hades themed pic to celebrate Spring and for the next NSFW piece, I'll ask your opinion in a poll.

Also, for those of you who follow me on social medias, I'll be taking a hiatus from twitter for... however long I need.

The story is, I've been struggling with a lot of tech issues, many online services and softwares, over the last 6 months. Twitter, Discord, email box, Patreon, Ko-fi, paypal, Whatsapp, my phone refusing to update and breaking every app on it, and the list goes one. And let's just say that the consequences are accumulating: between loosing friends, being unable to make new ones, loosing business opportunities as well as not being able to participate in online events that would have made my heart lighter... it's affecting my mental health. That added to the fact that I usually have to fight tooth and nails for every. Single. Thing in life these days (mainly due to my disability and people not doing their job) I just... cannot take it anymore. So I'm taking a break from Twitter because that makes one less buggy mess to concern myself with. I'll still be available on bluesky, since it's not giving me any grief right now.

I've always been kinda tech savvy and I have a software developer as a partner to help and explain stuff, but even after 20 years on the internet and using computers and phones, we are both clueless. My bet is that it's AI-related - being used for software developement - because 1) everyone I know have abnormal issues with websites and apps, just not as wide spread as me 2) some of those issues couldn't even be made possible by a junior dev, not even a human point blank and 3) the issues oddly mimicks AI hallucinations. So... that could be another way for AI to make artists's lives more difficult sigh.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy today's drawing. Have a nice weekend! I'm going camping with friends!

Kisses and hugs,

Vinnie

Ooh! I'm guessing that's their special spot that no one else knows about? 😉

I love the colors and composition of the picture! I still find it a bit funny that they are just fckng in the open like that 😂 but hey, it's spring and they are technically animals LMAO

Also please please take the time off that you need to figure stuff out, I am sure most won't mind. And I hope you are able to recover your contacts. As a piece of advice is always a good idea to have important stuff written down somewhere not digitally, as I had the same happen to me in the past when I lost a phone before cloud was a thing. Anyway, I hope things work out for you.

Were you walking around in my brain? I'm currently writing a scene in my fic that has them in her backyard doing exactly this! XD. This piece of art is incredible. So hot yet intimate, these two just couldn't help themselves, huh? 🤩🥵

A quickie before lunch 🤭 these two just can't get enough of each other! Such a gorgeous piece. All the colours look absolutely beautiful and the attention to detail with the scenery/food blows me away! I always appreciate how often you change up Amy's outfit in your art. She looks so good in this purple piece! The pose you've picked is so perfect for the setting 🤭 though they aren't exactly in public, it's definitely giving off the vibe that they're being modest about exposure just in case 🤣 Aww Vinnie :( I'm sorry to hear about your struggles with social media ATM ♥️ I completely feel you. Twitter isn't the same as what it used to be. Far too many issues with it nowadays (I also heavily blame grok/Elon Musk). Sometimes stepping away to take a break is the best thing you can do for yourself motivationally. Always here to support you no matter what ♥️ wishing you all the best!

I’m too logical. Shadow’s beautiful but cheeks have got to be doing a major workout holding them but sort of upright and likely doing his part in thrusting himself into her as deeply as possible. He looks so passionate. Beautiful work Wow, that is a lot of things to go wrong bc of such social media glitches. Not that it matters, but your fellow FLOOFADOW and shady cakes friend is here to stay. I can’t say yes to blue sky bc it’s just another social app to keep up with. I wish there was someway I could make one post and all my social apps get the post on their platforms. Oh well. Screen time cuts are a good thing when it comes to phones and computers. Tho when it’s a part of your income it really is a catch 22. Hug!

Taking advantage of their privacy but still risking the possibility of being seen, oh you know that gets them going 🤭

Vinny

Oh what I would give to Take a delicious cupcake from that plate 😭🩷

Geniunely, I wanted to eat them as I made them. I ended up making a chocolate cake at home 😂

I mean, these two are intense, you cannot tell me they wouldn't like a liiittle bit of danger sometimes haha

You know, I really thought about adding an arm supporting him because I was like "this is not realistic! How does he move?" But I just... didn't want to for some reason LOL and I was too far gone to change the whole pose. I'm too logical too. But this is one of those drawing when I struggled on the details so much that I fell into the trape of "I commited to a drawing I should have modified in the sketch phase and now it looks wonky but I don't want to abandon it". I am very, VERY grateful for the beautiful people I've met on social medias. TBH since my hiatus I feel an emptiness because I have to refrain from contacting people there. If only discord worked... You can make a post and it gets posted everywhere, but it's via paid additional apps. I don't mind that it's a paying service - I know it's not easy to develop and they have to update their code regularily - but it's often too expensive unless you need it for your job. For sure, getting out of social medias can be a real issue. I already see a dip in I started my career when social medias were not used that way and when we artists were forced to post non stop on social medias, I had a hard time adjusting. I still don't like to post non stop on social medias and I frankly refuse to. It's like I'm forced to destroy my mental health to keep a job. But with my disality, the only realistic job is freelance and work from homne. There is really not a perfect solution. Getting older made me immune to a lot of bs online so it became easier.

Thank you for your advices! Yes I also keep everything written, I know anything can go to crap in an instant! I've lost friends like this - impossible to retrieve contact infos. I also try to avoid the cloud so I am really here leaving like a grandma in the dark age 😂 but it keeps me tech savvy and independant, which is always a good thing.
