I'm going to move to this account: @CactusChowder and I'm going to keep posting here for a bit so people know where to find me. My real name (My "I'm nonbinary and I'm going to be called this now, hell yeah" name) is Jackie, so I'm going to start signing art with my initials now, JB. Tav is still one of my names, but I want to generally switch to Jackie. 'Tavoriel' comes from Tolkein elvish. It means woodpecker lady. My sibling and I were really into Lord of the Rings as preteens, so I wanted an elf name...which would, of course, represent an invincible fantasy persona. Things at home were toxic and unpredictable - not the worst anyone's ever had it, but confusing and difficult for a kid. The websites that told you your real name translated into elvish didn't give me a name I really liked, so I went with an elvish word that sounded nice, 'tavor' (for woodpecker) and made a name out of it. An elf name would also declare a preference for androgeny, which I didn't have other words for at

What dog breeds do you guys want to see designs for? Is there a breed I've already used that you'd want to see other designs for? IF you'd be interested in buying a design if you liked it, what's your price range? Should I put a design on hold and give you first dibs? Any takers for a custom? (If you just wanna see xyz breed in a cool outfit, that's just as helpful!)

EDIT: These are closed for now because I ran out of energy! I'll put up a new commission post when I'm in a good spot to take commissions again! You know what's really NEEDED during a global virus pandemic? Cool pictures of dogs. Come and get some why don't you. I base my prices on a 20/hrguideline,andIcanworkwithabudgetifyoudon′tmindadropin"quality"(butit′sallquality!).Pastcommissionexamples−2hrs∣∣20/hr guideline, and I can work with a budget if you don't mind a drop in "quality" (but it's all quality!). Past commission examples - 2 hrs || 20/hrguideline,andIcanworkwithabudgetifyoudontmindadropin"quality"(butitsallquality!).Pastcommissionexamples2hrs∣∣40 45 mins || 15Iexpectflatcoloroutfitdesigns/adoptablesthataren′tsketchestobe15 I expect flat color outfit designs/adoptables that aren't sketches to be 15Iexpectflatcoloroutfitdesigns/adoptablesthatarentsketchestobe30-$40, not because the drawing itself is complicated in a technical sense, because designing the thing takes extra time, like drawing an existing character doesn't. I may need a few weeks for each commission because irl can be busy, but I will stay in contact with you about the progress of your piece!

Happy Easter and God bless.

Hello, are requests or art-trades or collabs open maybe?

I remember a few years ago I saw your story Trouble Merchants and really liked it. Are you planning to publish the rest of it?

Oh I'm so glad!! I worked on it for NaNoWriMo & got fairly close to the goal, if I'm remembering correctly. I do have more, and I think I even finished the first draft, it's just... very old (well, it feels very old) and very not-edited. In all honesty it could be years before it sees the light of day, but I'm not ready to give up on it yet. Thanks for the reminder, I'll keep it in mind! I'd rather try out self-publishing than putting up the whole thing informally, but nothing's set in stone.

Thank you very much for the watch! I immensely appreciate your support! :hug:

YOUR DESIGNS ARE SUPERB, IMPOSSIBLY GOOD, THEY GIVE ME LIFE.

If I had a way of giving money online right now I'd probably spend all my money here-

Have a nice day! Happy valentines day as well!

Hey! Just wanted to say thanks for reblogging my disney princes piece, it means a lot! I came across your art a while back and enjoyed your ideas for the princes too! I especially like that modern au one and also thought about drawing a modern setting for them some day.

Your designs and little stories for those animal adoptables are so creative and fun to read too (those dragon banks aww <3). I had a pleasant time looking through your gallery :D
