Many of you have reached out to express your concerns about how much power it takes to run SmarTree.AI.
We hear you.
We have taken active measures to ensure that our electricity is as green as possible. Each piece of coal is mined in an environmentally sustainable way, with pit props that are sourced only from Forestry Monitoring Corporation approved forests. Each piece is carefully washed in biodegradable soap to make it the cleanest coal there is.
Lastly, the coal is burnt in our sustainable power station boilers, made only from recycled steel and iron, with a specialist dye made from sustainably farmed plants to ensure that any smoke is as green as possible before it leaves our reclaimed brick chimneys. All our water is sustainably sourced bottled water, meaning there is no need to use any local water.
SmarTree.AI cares about the environment in which its paying customers have to live and we believe that it is possible to be green and profitable sustainably.

The emperor was sitting in his bed when the assassin came in through the window.
"Welcome, old friend."
"Wait," the assassin wheezed.
The emperor waited for him to catch his breath.
"I'm too old for this," the assassin said at last.
The emperor smiled. "It's been over sixty years since the first time you came to kill me."
"Mm. And a dozen times more. Yet you are still alive. You always were persuasive."
"I hope I still am. I would ask you to do it now."
"What?"

)A pair of twin deer down a snowy hill, enjoying winter days together: cold air, snow flying around them, no worrying about anything else.
Thereβs something especially nostalgic about drawing scenes like this, a kind of fake nostalgia since I never got to do anything like this when I was younger, since I didn't get to see snow until I was adult, but there is something about the feeling of being in a snowy place or just to seeing snow that brings me some kind of joy, it is like everything goes to a different tone. It's hard to explain.
But well, this was done during the Artists Alley at MFF.
Traditional. Color markers and pencils over toned tan paper.
Pulling a shot from deep in the archives for #FursuitFriday!

Archer, the red panda, holding a snowball almost as big as himself. Is he about to throw it at someone? Or is he carefully preparing the base for a snowwah?

A happy fox staring back at you from a tequila bottle, judging your life choices in a very friendly way.
This request was especially fun and interesting to make. Painting a fox directly onto a glass tequila bottle. Working with acrylics on curved glass felt very different from my usual surfaces, and there was no way back since the canvas was completely transparent
Made as a one-of-a-kind piece for Gigi from Trax
there should be a sudoku command, that's just like sudo, but you have to solve a sudoku puzzle to authenticate

Phew, finished making and writing cards. I've even delivered some to our neighbours. Just the rest to do tomorrow, when I drive to the old house to collect some stuff, and also put cards through old neighbours' doors too.
(The baubles I put on the front of the card were from https://christmasstockimages.com/)

"I am dying, with only a few months left. And the pain grows every day." The emperor made a grimace. "You'll finally get paid."
"I won't kill you for money," the assassin said. "Not anymore."
"Would you kill me for the sake of friendship?"
Nobody saw the assassin leave, after.
