Hiiieee!
I'm Phoebe! She/they, 27
Michigan + Pacific Northwest
Collector, costume enthusiast, oc-hoarder
Graduated as an official botanist in 2023, but I've been doing barista stuff, commissionwork, and a bunch of volunteering with naturalist stuff and education since then
Here's some pieces of me in some nutshells:
-I LOVE costuming, especially to Ren Faires
-collecting found objects, from cool driftwood to lost trinkets and colorful trash to natural curiosities like pinecones and feathers, I have so many eclectic collections my room looks like a victorian naturalist's curio cabinet mixed with what your dog dragged under the couch
-I'm well on my way to being a kind witch of the woods, even if I live in urban cement hell lol. Currently planting native plants in the yard and stalking the native bugs who show up
-is anyone even still reading these
-I love smoked meats and campfire smell
-based on my values, I SHOULD be a vegan. ...Yet here we are. v _v
-I dream that one day I shall go on a fruit-tour of the world! Traveling to where all the fruits are at their ripest and sampling nature's bounty one curiosity at a time
-I also wanna go around in a hot air balloon

From the sun-dappled forests of Northern California to the winding banks of Lake Michigan, Caffinated-Pinecone’s creativity grows wild and free — rooted in nature, nurtured by story, and deeply entwined with community.
Her gallery feels like stumbling upon a secret glade: filled with earthy watercolors, imaginative creatures, original comics, and a world that’s both ancient and deeply personal. Whether conjuring whimsical griffins from scraps or painting quiet scenes that hum with life, her art invites you to linger and feel something real.
However, their presence stretches far beyond the canvas. Over more than a decade on DeviantArt, Caffinated-Pinecone has become a beloved figure, storyteller, and friend. They’re proof of how an online space can shape a person — and how, in turn, one person can help shape a community. In every comment thread, collaborative project, and fond memory shared by longtime friends, their authenticity shines through.
With deep appreciation for their artistry and spirit, and the quiet magic they bring to our community, we’re thrilled to present Caffinated-Pinecone with the Deviousness Award for June 2025!
I've never cashed points in for real money, so every point you donate will be traded to other artists for commissions and stuff.
Which is what I'd be spending real money on anyway
*Cutely puts this here*

Maple Hollow [SUSPENDED UNTIL AUTUMN]
I only write it from sept. 1st to Dec. 1st. A delightful autumn town with autumny characters like a girl with a pumpkin for a head, scarecrows, ghosts, and witches.
Winter Solstice Awards
Every winter I (try to) bust out the winter solstice awards, where I put all of my characters into an event hall and let them interact with OCs from other stories. It's absolute chaos.

SEVERAL more from earlier than 2016 that need not be taken seriously. Feel free to inquire. There was a Pokemon phase, a homestuck phase, my very first character set ever which was just the psychotic ravings of a 7-year old, it's all a lot of fun.
