My name is Tobi, my pronouns are they/them, I was born in summer 1999 and I do arts and crafts ⋆.°🎨୭ ˚. ᵎᵎ ✄⚉
I like drawing characters, making clothes look cool with art and creating cute lil creatures and other stuff with air dry clay. Outside of being creative I'm a nerd who used to be a space scientist and satellite technology test engineer but I stopped working in that field because most space companies are also doing military stuff and that isn't cool. I've dabbled in freelance art on and off through my physics and space engineering degree and since getting out of science have decided to roll with my creative side.
I started working on the launch of this business at the end of 2025 when I found out I was pregnant and needed a way to stay at home and make some money while I look after my baby. Existing as a gender queer person in this world has given me a mix of trans rage and a persistent craving for whimsy, so I began my fashion journey with a lino print clothing line called “anarchy animals” where anti-establishment forest friends do shenanigans to enact the downfall of the authoritarian regimes that keep us oppressed tehe ฅ^>⩊<^ฅ. I am generally and digitial artist but I have also used more traditional media; I love drawing magical little forest scenes with liners and copics and have been making hand-made cards for my loved ones for years now. I have a long way to go with becoming a better artist, and regularly sketch to improve my skills, but I am experienced with doing commissions so will do everything to make an art piece perfect for you!
