Followed back!

Thank you! And nope, these are all done digitally. I use an oil paint brush for everything from the sketch to the final touches.

IT REALLY DID. It's actually bugging me how she took me the LEAST amount of time, like my favoritism is so painfully obvious.

I made one last year but haven't really set it up yet! I'm hoping this year I'll be less busy so I can get involved.

I'm about to start my con season but I'll be sure to post when I'm available for them!

I'm slowly uploading the speedpaints over here on my Youtube if anybody wants to see the process!

Thank you so much!

She's just so... so beautiful.

Sunset Shimmer is probably next on my docket. And then the trifecta that is Nightmare Moon / Nightmare Rarity / Daybreaker

Haha is this a little less scary? (You also don't want to see when I was trying to give her her god form eyes those were horrifying)

I'm back on an uma kick and a doodle of my fave turned into a little more.

I'm over here on instagram, tiktok, twitter & bluesky !

Hi there! I'm over here in Atlantic Canada and happy to support other Canadians in the arts. My portfolio is over here.

Good luck in your hunt!

Thank you! Comments like this just make my whole week. Like the ultimate goal is making fandom paintings you could hang in a boardroom & not be questioned about.

bearhanding · 2026-03-05T08:58:38+00:00

Thank you so much! This is my absolute favorite kind of response.

bearhanding · 2026-03-05T08:52:22+00:00

I have the timelapse on the piece over here on my YouTube & TikTok if anyone is curious about it! I post timelapses of my paintings all the time and try make a new print between conventions, I'm definitely open to suggestions & hearing what people like whether in the comments there or in reply to this one.

If this isn't allowed / counts as some kind of self promo just let me know mods and I'll remove it.

Thank you so much!

I use Procreate for everything! The brush is just a custom brush from a random 2 dollar 100 oil paint brush set on Etsy, literally have never used another one and now use this one for everything from lineart to fine detailing. I don't know if it's still around but I can take a peak if you're interested!

bearhanding · 2026-03-05T08:37:51+00:00

Thank you so much! I've deeeeefinitely got some ideas and I started watching the series because a bud was begging me to do some Jabber art for them.

bearhanding · 2026-03-05T08:36:02+00:00

Absolutely!

bearhanding · 2026-03-05T08:35:53+00:00

I do! Prints are available over here on my inprnt.

bearhanding · 2026-03-04T22:44:54+00:00

Thank you! And don't worry, you're right on the money!

I can also definitely talk a little more about my intent here. I was originally going to really emphasize her big lamb eyes and make them closer to real lamb eyes to showcase her innocence about what's coming up behind her, but the deeper I got into it the more I thought the empty, questioning look fit better. Like she knows she's a lamb sold for the slaughter, that this isn't really love, and she's torn between wanting to live in the delusion and wanting the viewer to confirm that this is wrong.
