Celebrations

Happy New Year to each an everyone of you!

Whether your 2025 was great or absolutely horrid, I hope you have a better 2026…

May all deserving bottoms get a sound spanking this year, and may you get all the hugs that you need.

Love you all,

Kalidwen

A (corner)time to reflect

Since we are still in the birth throes of the New Year (may it be a good one), I have been reflecting on myself (scary!), on my art (fun!), and what I want to do with both this year.

While I have a lot of fun with drawing in general, I do tend to gravitate towards the same kind of bodies and poses time after time, so I would like to try and get some more variety in 2025. That means variety in size, skin-tones (when in colour, obviously), facial features, expressions, et cetera. There is a lot of comfort for me in simple otk scenes, but dynamism is also quite fun to think about, and while I tend to use quite exaggerated pin-up-like proportions, I also love drawing, celebrating (and spanking) all sorts of women, from curvy to toned, large to skinny, and anything in between. So let’s see more of that! I also hope that that way more people will see themselves in the drawings, and maybe enjoy them even more.

In passing, I also want to get my colouring and shading to the next level but 1) it’s hard, and 2) I’m lazy. However, I do like my style (hey, I’ve chosen it), and I think there is something fun in the minimalism of a restricted colour palette and what one can do with it. It is a nice way to have some bits stand out (you know the ones!), and it allows me to fit art in a generally busy life and schedule without having to spend weeks finishing a piece. So win-win, I guess? All that to say that I want to get my colouring better, but that I still intend to carry on with my usual style.

Finally, and this is reflected in this piece as well, the third chapter of my little game has been a shadow looming over me for the entirety of 2024, and it has caused me more anxiety than I’d like to admit, so getting some fantasy-style pieces done again is something I’m looking forward to, and finally finishing that cursed chapter!

Good things are coming! I know it.

Happy New Year

Well, another turn around the sun, hey?

Life has that wonderful way of going up and down, left and right, tipsy-turvying its merry way as we all pretty much make stuff up along the way.

Can’t say that my 2024 was a great one, but a new year is always a good point to reflect, renew, and start fresh! Lots of projects on the cards and exciting things to keep me going in 2025 (in my actual life as well as my online one!); I’m looking forward to it!

One of the most important realisations this year has been that if I don’t make time for myself, and for what I want to do, there is never going to be a time to do it. Waiting for the right moment is all well and good, but there are so many countless other things that can and do fill our time that that moment might never come if we don’t make it happen. And I’ve been probably guilty of deferring to that hypothetical “later” too often, to my own detriment, really. You live and you learn, even at my advanced, decrepit age (36 is a doozie, not sure I’d recommend it!).

But enough about little old me; however your 2024 did go, I hope your 2025 will be even better, and that all your hopes, projects, and dreams will bear fruit. You’ve got this! And if you need an ear, be it to celebrate or commiserate, I’m always happy to listen!

One of them says "So, what are your resolutions for the New Year?", the second says "Not get in trouble so often, maybe?", the third says "You both said that last year... and the year before... and the year before that... and..."

Bluer horizons

Well, I’m slowly dragging myself out of the pits of despondency I’ve been trudging through for the past few months/year, so here’s a little something to get things going. To new beginnings?

The reason for this doodle, besides getting my atrophied drawing muscles back to the proverbial art gym (if you’ll excuse the tortured metaphor), was that you can now find me on Bluesky for (hopefully) more lil’ updates, in between publishing new lil’ stories here and getting back on Discord and whatnot. Given the cesspool that Twitter has become (and I’m not an American, but the politics of its owner are not necessarily helping either), it was the right time to move on. That change, even if it’s a small one, really was the nudge that I needed to get things rolling again.

For the past few months, I’ve been paralysed by the number of things that I want to do. Any time spent on one thing means that another isn’t happening, and faced with too many things, I ended up doing nothing. There is an irony in that, and I’m sure that the Germans have a word for it. Some might also call it laziness, and I’m not sure I could confidently say they are wrong. I know I retire into myself when things become too much, and it can be addictive to do nothing, because if I do nothing, then nothing can go wrong. Or can it? There is a lot that’s been on hold for far too long, and the more I wait for the right time to start again, the less likely it is that there will be a right time.

So, no time like the present! It’s unfortunately true that if something is worth doing, it’s worth doing poorly (i.e. rather than not doing the thing at all). Now is not yet the time for New Resolutions™, but in the spirit of Christmas (if you celebrate) and the holidays (if you have any), let’s have a bit of cheer and lift our spirits up with some art, some naughtiness, and some saucy writing.

Of course, spanked bottoms are always the best way to do it, so let’s drink to that! (alcohol-free beverages are available)

Should I promise more regular updates? Haha, no.

Will there be some, though? Yes.

Promise? I said no.

Why not? …

Ah, darn it, you’re right. I promise some updates this month.

And next year? Let’s not get carried away, shall we?

Happy International Women’s Day!

To all the women in my life, and every other besides, I hope you had a beautiful day, and that tomorrow will be just as good. Unfortunately, I know that for a lot of people, equality is a distant dream, and that low-level (or not so low, really) day-to-day misogyny is very real. From cat-calling to “jokes” and snide comments, to hearing colleagues talking about not going for a run in the dark, for every man that talks over you or dismisses your questions and concerns just because you have a hysterical set of genitals, there is still a lot to be done.

The irony of talking about it on a blog that is 99% about hitting women is not lost on me, but I hope I make it clear that, to me, spanking, as a fetish, has nothing to do with belittling women. In fact, I hope there is empowerment in choosing when and by whom to be dominated, when to let go and trust another person. I hope also that the knowledge that the game ends when (if) the spankee says so shows who’s really in control 😉

On this day like on any other, I wish that all women around the world got what they deserved one day. And yes, some of you deserve a good spanking. You know who you are!

With love, always,

-Kal

And a few pictures

Woops

Apologies, it seems the most recent pictures were not configured properly and wouldn’t blow up to full size when clicked upon! It should all be fixed now but don’t hesitate to tell me if you can’t read the text or see some pics!

As always, I hope you and your loved ones are safe ❤

Vote!

I tend not to get political on here, and I won’t tell my American friends and visitors who to vote for. It’s your country, not mine. 

What I will say, though, is that with civil rights come duties, the primary of which is simply to vote. A democracy can only be a healthy one if people actually vote. So vote, people. Or else! 

Please do not make political comments about the election or either candidate below, I have no interest in housing a debate here, I think there are places far better suited to it all around the internet. And mostly, at this point, I think people have made their mind, one way or another. One thing about this election is that the choices are so diametrically opposed that I can’t imagine people being on the fence.

In any case, if you haven’t yet, please vote! Have your voice heard!

As always, I love you all!

And here’s a version without the text ^^
