Eternally my mind will produce ways to put my talents to use & when I'm done no matter where I've been I'll yearn to do it all again-2pac. IG @ruffhousearts

To be honest my heart really doesn’t feel right writing some sort of controversial caption just to try & ignite engagement on my art.

Just want people to enjoy what I enjoy making 🫡

Went to a show this weekend & got this Gengar card signed by the voice actor 😎

My subconscious probably chose these colors due to the recent cold weather 🥶

Making art is not about making it more efficient & faster to create. Art is about the emergence of your thoughts brought to life through experience, trial & practice. Art is a life long journey & this is what causal users that use ai to make art fails to recognize.

Long post incoming warning, if you take the time to read all of this, thank you! If not i hope you have a good day & a happy new years.

As another year comes to a close & a new one is on the horizon, i always like to share where im at as a whole with my Friends piece. As you can see it appears to be almost done but i am comfortable sharing the whole thing now because it’s far from done! There is a big surprise I’ve been holding onto for years now & when i tell you that what you see here is probably only about 60 percent done, trust me i am not kidding. I will probably be working on this for at least another year. This piece of art is truly a showcase of my soul, my perseverance, my creativity and my love for the “sport” To be honest, if finances allowed it, I would literally love to work on this for my entire life, & its ironic i say that like someone is out there waiting to just add this to their collection once i do finish it. I’ve given up on that fairy tale & to be honest it’s been freeing in a way to know that i am truly creating this just for the love of it. This piece could financially chance my life if i ever finish it, AND if there are still players here who are willing to collect art once this is finished, but i am no longer counting on that, we simply must keep creating because this is what my inner child desires. We are closing this year with 5105 hours baby, yes, read that again, on a single piece in the year 2025 where posting art online is a rat race for constant attention & where things are forgotten ten minutes after they’re posted.

Anyways, im thankful for another year of good health, thankful my body has allowed me to improve in my running hobby & I am super thankful for those who still believe in me & above all am thankful to God for giving me another year of health despite being hit some health bullshit almost 3 years ago now. Not to veer of topic but when i got those news, i did everything in my power to give my body the best fighting chance at not getting worse, and thankfully it has worked up to this point & all i can do is continue to stay sober , keep getting good sleep, exercise & eat as healthy as possible, the rest is up to God.

I will update the Friends site ( will link it below ) with more progress shots so those who are genuinely interested in the process of this piece can explore it from beginning up until now.

Again if you read this, thank you i wish you nothing but the best in 2026.

Hi, I’m Zaid and make art inspired by my inner child.

Alright no more deleting posts even if only 20 people actually see my posts.

Here’s some cats I’m having a lot of fun with right now within Friends.

I really enjoy pairing characters who display affection & joy to be next to each. I know subconsciously the love of my mom plays a big part in this, I like to illustrate characters showing happiness & love towards each other.
