hibernating soon + character lore drop
Posted a month agoi made THIRTY-FOUR pieces of traditional art this month *collapses*.
with two cons and artfight, this summer has been super busy! I learned a lot and experimented with two new mediums (markers and pastels) which I hope to get comfortable with eventually, Lol.
thank you all for your favorites, feedback, and support!
i still have a couple commissions, gifts, and small projects in my queue that i'll be posting over the next couple months. after that, i'll be hunkering down to work on chapter 2 of my comic, which means i'll basically disappear until next summer. i'll still be around checking messages, but don't expect me to post much of anything new.
on an unrelated note, i finally filled out the toyhouse pages for all of my characters, so if you're interested in knowing about Renna's terrible mother or Karo's career change, it's all there!
i'm always down to chat about my OCs. someday five+ years from now when I finish Too Late For Gods, maybe they'll all get a comic of their own.
but that's a story for another day!
peace and long life xx

Limited Time - Half Off Toned Sketches
Posted 4 months agoI'd like a few new samples of toned sketches for a con coming up in May.
Like these:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/57461050/
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/57460997/
You would receive a digital copy only.
Portrait: $20 CAD
Half: $40 CAD
Full: $50 CAD
Ideally want one of each. Not first come first serve, comment a ref and I'll DM you if I think your character/idea is a good fit. I want to showcase some variety, species and mood wise.
SFW only. Willing to do two characters for double price. Would consider a trade.
Offer closes May 8 or when I have picked three projects, whichever happens first.

bsky (and other places to find me)
Posted 11 months agoI still prefer gallery sites like FA and (to a lesser extent these days) dA. However, I post art in the following locations:
- Blsky (NEW)
- deviantArt
- tumblr
I will also be posting my upcoming comic on ComicFury in 2025, and I use Toyhou.se for displaying art of my characters by myself and others.
Though I don't post art there, you can send me tips on Kofi.
Unless I am truly dying and desperate for commissions I aim NOT to return to Elongated Muskrat's former bird site. I'm not big on social media in general and am a little peeved that the replacement for twitter (bsky) seems to be just Twitter 2 from a UI perspective, but I also know gallery sites have fallen out of fashion and I'd like my art to be accessible. So here we are lol.

that time of year again
Posted a year agoIt's almost July!
I will once again be attending Fur Eh, you'll find me camped out in the artist's alley doing sketches as has become my tradition :>
I will likely NOT be doing art fight this year unfortunately, I don't want to lose momentum on my comic and doing both the con AND artfight AND continuing to work on pages is just too much I'm afraid. Hopefully I'll be at a better pausing point next year.

commission updates + fur eh
Posted 2 years agosalutations fellow furries
I have a few art related updates:
after years of messaging back and forth hashing out commission details, I've created a Google form to streamline the process: https://forms.gle/C5rpUEyJwdCxbUhQ7
instead of updating my commission status in multiple places, the plan is to just toggle the form open and closed depending on whether I am accepting new commissions. hoping this will save both myself and my commissioners time.
if we already chat regularly on telegram, or if you don't have a Google account, you are still welcome to contact me directly for a quote (but the form is strongly preferred otherwise).
i have also updated my price guide. all prices have increased slightly to reflect more confidence in my work and general economic inflation. my reference sheets are the only item that has increased significantly in price; after my most recent ref sheet I realized that i spend WAY more time on ref sheets than I do any other type of commission and I felt my prices should reflect that.
additionally, i do plan on attending fur-eh (edmonton con) this year for the first time since 2019, so hopefully i'll be seeing some of you there :3
peace and love on planet earth.

2023 life update
Posted 2 years agoHey FA!
As I'm sure you've noticed, I've started posting art again this past month. I've also reached out to friends/repeat commissioners, and taken on a couple new projects. To avoid burnout I'll be changing my commission model--focusing on YCHs rather than custom work, and generally only taking on one project at a time.
If you're interested in commissioning something custom from me, you are welcome to request a quote via email (yesterlove.art@gmail.com); I am going to start up a wait list, and will reach out to you when I have time to complete your project.
For my mental health I will be avoiding Twitter for now. I will continue posting here and on dA. (Despite dA's deteriorating interface and dubious AI policies, I've been using the site for nearly 16 years of my life, and I still get a lot of interaction from users there...not quite ready to let it go.)
Peace and love on planet earth.
Peter

commissions closed + new job + life updates
Posted 3 years agoHey everyone. I have some announcements.
So long as I've been making and posting art online (since...oh jeez...2007?), I have never, to my memory, closed my commissions. Early on, this was simply because I was a beginner (read: terrible) artist, and no one wanted to commission me, lol. But I've improved a lot, especially these past couple years, and I've gotten a steady stream of commissioners, which I'm grateful for. Unfortunately, it's not nearly enough to sustain myself; since I graduated with my M.Sc. in 2019, I've scraped by mostly as a math/science tutor. I could've gotten a better, full time job elsewhere, but I love my city and the people here, and I wanted to stay.
It' s been a rough few years. Several people close to me have died, the pandemic has been and continues to be isolating, and through it all I was making enough money to eat and pay rent but not much else. Income from art helped keep me afloat, but lately my mental health has taken a turn for the worse and it's been difficult to do any hobbies at all, including art. I'm just completely burnt out, and nothing makes me happy. I need a break. But until today I couldn't financially afford to take one.
I was just offered a new, full time job in my field and in my city--the kind of job I've been sitting around waiting to pop up. I'm incredibly relieved to finally have some breathing room financially. I start next month.
This month I'm going to focus on finishing my current queue, and then I am taking a break from commissions, and a break from art in general for a while. I know I'll come back to it--I always have--but when I do I'll probably want to focus on personal art, since for the first time as an adult I will actually have the luxury to do so.
I do plan on taking commissions again--and maybe someday I'll even be good enough to make art my full time job. But I'm not there yet.
Thanks again to everyone for your support. Take care.

Portrait + Icon Commissions
Posted 4 years agoI've got a couple big commissions to do this month, so I'd love to take on some smaller comms to break up the work.
I'm mostly interested in doing quick icons (shaded or flat) and flat color portraits, but I can add larger pieces to my queue, as long as you're okay with a longer turnaround time.
Prices: https://yesterlove.carrd.co/#yesterlove-coms
My gallery is divided into folders that track with commission type (flat, shaded, and painted) if you'd like to see more examples.
Contact me via email (yesterlove.art@gmail.com) or telegram https://t.me/yesterlove to claim a slot.

Posted 4 years agotrans people are real human beings
Posted 4 years agoi'm so, so tired of seeing fetish art of trans people created by and for cis people.
i don't feel comfortable creating nsfw (or even non-sexualized, nude) representations of my own body, because i just feel ogled by a cis audience. i don't know if that's ever going to get better.
trans people are real human beings and not your"cuntboy" or "dickgirl" fantasy. if you disagree i once again direct you to this journal, which explains the issue more eloquently than I can: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6683614/
i am not going to argue in the comments so if you try to start shit i'm just going to block you.

Posted 8 years agoi have successfully completed my move to canada, including transferring over my bank info and opening a new paypal account! all my contact info is the same, but i no longer have a cash.me since they aren't available in canada yet boo
if you want to buy me a coffee you can now do so here: https://ko-fi.com/yesterlove
and (as usual) commissions are open! been itching to do some headshots--starting as low as 6usd. check out prices/TOS on my profile!

new art email + updated TOS + graduating
Posted 8 years agoYou can now direct all of your commission inquiries to yesterlove.art@gmail.com.
I have decided to only use invoices via paypal now (i.e. you provide me your paypal email and I send you a bill) because of trouble other artists have had with paypal in the past.
I also made a squarecash so you can pay via debit card (or just give me tips!) at cash.me/$fruitbap ! (I am poor and paying for a 7200$ surgery out of pocket this summer so please consider throwing a spare dollar my way lol)
I'll be moving to Canada in September so I'm going to have to delete both my paypal and squarecash accounts and remake them then, but I will keep all my info the same if possible.
I'm hoping I'll have a productive enough commission season this summer to make all this updating of my information worth it. At the very least my personal info/name is separate from my furry business now, which was my main concern, lol. This isn't my day job, y'all!
Anyway. Commissions are open. I hope to be making some new art soon since I've got a nice gap between graduation and grad school. Ya boy's about to be a piece of shit with a bachelor's degree!

New Tablet - FWA - Thank you!
Posted 9 years agoWell, my tablet kicked the bucket last week but thanks to my commissioners at FWA I was able to purchase a new one today! I got a small Intuos Pro, which is a big step up from my old Graphire 4. I've had that tablet since I was in the 6th grade and I'm a junior in college now, so it certainly had a long and productive life! I'm excited to try the Intuos, though--hopefully it will help me improve my digital work in the coming year.
Thanks again! I had a wonderful time at FWA, as always, and I'm already looking forward to next year <3

Posted 9 years agoWhere are you staying?
The Marriott
What day are you getting there?
I will likely take Marta over on Friday afternoon. I tragically have class on Friday morning so Thursday night is a no-go!
Who are you rooming with?


<3
Who will you hang out with during the convention?
Those who I am rooming with as well as any others who hunt me down!
Are there any panels you might be attending?
Probably not, but if I do it will be Friday afternoon. Maayybe Furries Got Talent on Sunday if I have time but I probably won't. (Yay college!)
Will you be suiting?
Tragically no
What is your gender?
Male (I know I don't look male, so please refrain from pointing that out lmao.)
How can I find you?
I will be wearing my Peter and Cerenade badges--I can imagine I'm one of the few fruit bats there, so they shouldn't be too hard to recognize!
I have short brownish black hair and I'll be wearing an orange scarf most of the time, if that helps.
Where will you be most of the time during the con?
Artist's alley!
If I see you, how should I get your attention?
Yell "Peter" and wave? :> Or tap me on the shoulder or something.
Can I talk to you?
Of course.
Can I touch you?
Please ask first.
Can I hug or snuggle with you?
Hugs are good but unless we have met in person before please no "snuggles!"
Can I visit your room?
Not unless you're invited or you're there to pick up a commission, please!
Can I buy you drinks?
I don't drink, so no thank you! Coffee is always appreciated though. I like it dark and black :>
Can I give you stuff?
Please do. Please note that I am a vegan before bringing me food because I will feel bad turning you down! ;w;
How long are you going to be at the con?
Friday afternoon--Sunday Afternoon
Do you have an artist table?
Well, they're first-come first-serve, so...yes?
Will you be going to parties?
Maybe..probably not...but maybe...
Will you be performing?
Nah
What/where will you be eating?
I will go to Mellow Mushroom at least once but I will be brining my own food and snacks for the most part.
Can I come with you for food/fun/etc?
Sure!
Can I take your picture?
Please ask first. Depends on what you want to do with the picture, lol.
Really looking forward to the con this year!!! ^_^
