A bit of artistic warm up before tonight’s Picarto stream which starts tonight April 8th at 5:30pm Pacific. It’s my take on Applebloom’s dress that she wore to the Grand Galloping Gala in Season 5. I’ll probably do Sweetie Belle’s and Scootaloo at some point in the future.
Because I will be at Babscon next weekend I am streaming today on Picarto at my usual starting time of 5:30pm Pacific. So join me for an evening of art, stories and some great folks! Hope to see you there!

Leading Story muttered under her breath in my Equestria Dreamscape as she made various editors marks on a proof for the morning edition of the Manehattan Herald. It was after 9pm and if this edition was going to make it to press in time it would have to be ready soon.
Finally she signed off on the edition and sent it down to the typesetters in the basement of the bu...
No, this is not a delayed April's Fool joke! I'll be streaming once again on Picarto this Saturday starting at 5:30pm Pacific. So tune in for an evening of art, fun and some really great folks! Hope to see you there!

The late afternoon sun poured through the gaps in the curtains and cast long shadows across the polished wood floor in my Equestria dreamscape. From somewhere within the depths of the house a clock chimed 4.
There was a soft click and the front door swung open from the magical will of its wielder. A unicorn mare stepped over the threshold and into the foyer. Closin...

This is a finished piece of Silver Glow that I was commissioned to create. She doesn't appear to be happy with a bird sitting on her head. I chose a Chickadee since they are those little songbirds that will eat out of your hand.
I have not read all of Silver Glow's Journal since it is a large body of work but I am enjoying it so far. 2017-03-31 17:02:58 +0000 UTC View Post
Applebloom floated in front of the Shambler in my Equestria dreamscape. The cornered nightmare held its hands up as if to protect itself as it made plaintive sounds. The little filly stared at for a second and then she spoke softly.
"Okay. I'm going ta let ya go. But I've told ya what will happen if ya go terrorizing ponies and giving them nightmares again. ...

As Applebloom celebration her first shoeing in my Equestria dreamscape, others were having their own celebrations and reunions.
It was nighttime, and a slow, steady rain was falling. Above the lights and bustling streets of Manehattan flew a griffin. With strong, regular wing beats this aerial hunter traversed the city. Raindrops splattered on her goggles and the cool even...
Applebloom stood in Glowing Coals shop in my Equestria dreamscape awaiting her to get her hoofs shod for the first time. She was both excited and nervous about prospect of finally getting a proper pair of shoes. Getting shod meant she was actually growing up and becoming a true member of the Ponyville community, and yet at the same time it was an acknowledgment that her days of foalhood were...

I got my 500th follower on Twitter today, and Petina felt that because Fluttershy has been in several of my most recent Tweets she should join in the celebration!
If you're not following me Twitter here's the Link I will often make announcements on it first since it is very mobile friendly.
More images from Friendship is Yoga series of drawings. Fluttershy and Discord work pretty good together as a team.

Service to the Crown Day had come and past in my Equestria dreamscape, and life around Ponyville was settling down into its springtime routine.
This was especially true at Sweet Apple Acres where life rotates around the seasons; under the watchful eyes of the Apple family another crop of apples was beginning to grow. However there were other things besides apples th...

Celestia reviewed the paperwork in front of her as she sipped her hibiscus tea in my Equestria dreamscape. She had three different reports spread out in a fan pattern on her desk. With slow, deliberate motions she'd levitate a sheet of paper and examined it for a moment then with equal care she'd return it to its original place.
This ritual played out for several minutes until ...

Next in my anthro MLP "Friendship is Yoga" series it is Octavia and Vinyl Scratch or also know as DJPon3. I find these drawing fascinating because they are requiring me to really improve my figure drawing skills. Especially how two figure physically interact with each other.
