i know it's a dark piece for a celebration BUT that's because it's a recreation of the first tadc art i made!! figured that would be appropriate but manageable since this is last minute...
i wanted to reflect on things, so there's sappy stuff below the cut (WARNING cause it's LONG!!), but for those who just want the art, enjoy <3
where to start?
when i made my first art for the amazing digital circus, i hadn't been posting publicly on social media for a few years.
i'd gotten burnt out after covid and i would regularly go weeks without drawing. i was starting to think that was it for me and art... gone from one of my main passions to a hobby i indulged in on occasion. it shook me up because i had always been proud to be an artist, but i had started to accept it.
however, pomni's design really charmed me after i watched the pilot... i had been reblogging a bunch of fun tadc art, and it inspired me to post my first attempt at drawing pomni to tumblr a week after the pilot dropped!
admittedly, it wasn't very good... i'm not proud of it, it barely got any attention, and at the time i thought it was gonna be a one-off, but what it ended up becoming was a first step back into the light.
taking that first step has always been particularly agonizing for me, so i wouldn't have done it without a good push. i think without the amazing digital circus, it is possible i never would've made my art public again.
i posted a few more doodles and from there it was honestly kinda crazy... the initial rush of attention i got from the pilot-era became a bit much, and i had to take a hiatus, but now that i'm back with a little more clarity (and little more frontal lobe development) i'm feeling great!!
honestly, i haven't felt this carefree about art since i was in middle school making warrior cats ocs, so i'm pretty optimistic that i'll stick around til the show's end, and i'm super excited for all that is to come with it!!
thank you to goose, glitch, and everyone else who worked on the show for putting out an amazing, inspiring work that has touched my heart, kept me motivated, and enabled me to find friends and community i hold dear... and man, the show just keeps getting better, i'm so proud i get to see it evolve and grow!!
i'm not sure where i'll go after the show ends... i honestly might head back into internet "retirement" if nothing catches my fancy, but i'm more than satisfied with the time i've spent here, and if anything was to be my last hurrah, i'm glad it was this :)
i appreciate anyone who read this, and even if you didn't, thanks for stopping by and looking at the art! hope to bring you more soon!!

This one's somewhat inspired by a post from @tartpomegranate about finding out about Pomni's anger issues and imagining a scenario of Ragatha and Pomni having to work around them since it might remind Ragatha of her mother. While the angst potential of Ragatha's trauma being triggered by an angy Pomni is good...I kinda like more the view of Ragatha seeing Angy Pom as more safe than her mom and even admiring or being kinda jealous of how freely Pom is able to express her negative emotions. True, Pomni can be spicy at times. But I think she's alot more patient and kind than Ragatha's mom and not NEARLY as controlling or overbearing. And Ragatha NEEDS to see that anger can be a good safe thing.
I kinda feel she'd be less scared of Pomni's anger and more kinda...conflicted by it, I guess? I feel like she'd LOVE it but also feel kinda bad for liking it. Like enjoying it makes her a bad person.
It's a nice way to explore how Ragatha's issues would intersect with Pomni's without it nessecarily making Ragatha feel unsafe with her and I think help with Ragatha's repression too. Ragatha already feels unsafe with Jax and Caine and the memory and fear of her mother and honestly...she needs to learn it's OK to be angry. That being angry isn't being a jerk.
gnawing on something the size of your mouth using your entire set of teeth is a very slobbery process according to the hundreds of dogs I have observed, and pompom is no different
