What IS an Adult Pet Anyways...?

This week it seems like we've broken the Keeper of Pots streak, but fret not! For this post we have a very well known artist in the hypno art community. It's none other than Zko, the creator Skypenotized, and owner of the hypnosis bait OC Crystal. I actually ended up meeting Zko through Hypno Hub where he commented on one of the previous pictures featuring myself. He said something along the lines of "I envy whoever can spend so much money on commissioning pictures of their waifu." As he did not know I was a real person at the time. After correcting him and letting him know I was real, we started talking and became friends! And to this day, Zko is still a friend that I talk to regularly.

After talking to him and realizing he was an artist, I decided to ask him for a commission. Yes that's right, at the time when Zko had messaged me, I wasn't actually aware of Skypenotized or that he was an artist. Though to be fair, the series had only just recently started to pick up traction at this point. We discussed what I wanted for the commission, and this time I was in the mood for a hypnotic snake picture! A classic that even to this day I still pine for. (And at the time of writing this post, I'm currently in a hypnotic snake mood. I really should get a picture of one done with me.)

Though as per my usual lack of details, I didn't have a specific scenario in mind. So I kind of let Zko take the reigns on this one, as per usual. However, despite the fact that I didn't have too much creative input with this idea, Zko DID actually do a private stream for me as he worked on this commission. As far as my memory goes, this never happened again, but watching an artist work live while giving my input as it went along does help create a more solid mental picture. Plus it's always fun seeing people who are amazing at their craft, and clearly Zko is a man who knows his craft.

In the end, we have a scenario of a strange hypnotic snake breaking out from it's containment and hypnotizing me! but luckily there seems to be a button you can press in case of an emergency! Now if only I could just reach it... It's still pretty handy of the Adult Pet Shop to have such a button though. I suppose whenever the owner of the shop comes back, he'll be in for a treat. Seems like on top of being bound hypnotically, I'm also in a precarious situation in terms of clothing...

Overall, the commission process with Zko was smooth sailing. Again, watching the stream was a treat, and there were no bumps along the road for this piece. It was actually finished in about two days as well, so definitely nothing to complain about. Zko still makes hypnosis based drawings to this day, and it's easy to say how much he has improved since this drawing (Since this was done in June 2015 or so) but even still, I'd say this picture is still great! Unfortunately, I forgot to ask Zko for a comment about this picture, but next time I'll get some thoughts from him! After all, this definitely isn't the last Zko picture we'll be seeing on here!

Three Artists, One Picture.


I know what you're thinking, "Wait! Where's part three of the Keeper of Pots sketch commissions!?" Or something like that? Well, as I mentioned previously, these pictures on the blog will be uploaded in chronological order. Kind of. And funnily enough, there was actually a gap between the second and third pictures in the Keeper of Pots sketch commissions. But don't you fret! Because we still have some Keeper of Pots art this week. However, this time he is joined by not one, but two other artists. Allow me to elaborate.

To be completely honest, the picture featured in this blog is actually a remake. The third, and bottom most picture uploaded here is the original. It's a picture of me in a jungle girl outfit, being coiled and hypnotized by Kaa, perhaps with some futile resistance. The artist no longer draws, and has wished to remain anonymous. And if I recall, the original artist was not too happy about this picture, as well as some others they made for me. So out of respect, I was not going to upload them to this blog, despite them predating a lot of other images here.

But going back to what I said earlier, the ACTUAL picture featured here is a remake of said picture. Keeper of Pots was rather taken with this artist's work, and one day decided to just draw a remake of one of their pieces on a whim. Though much like the original artist, I believe he was not too satisfied with this picture. Unlike the original artist however, it wasn't due to being not happy with his work. Rather, Keeper of Pots felt like it was a pale imitation of the first. Also, while borrowing ideas and working them into something else is fine, Keeper of Pots wasn't too big a fan of releasing a picture that was straight up a remake of a previous picture.

Back when he shared this picture with me, he was already hesitant to do so. And even more hesitant to upload to the Hub. It took a lot of convincing to finally get him to cave in, and upload this picture! I was a bit forceful admittedly, but that's because not only is this remake fantastic on it's own right, but also as I was working towards the 100 picture goal, it feels like it'd be a waste to just let an Erika picture hang out in limbo like that. So in between the Keeper of Pots sketch work commissions, we ended up getting another piece by him! And since the focus of this post is the remake, it'll be the one taking the spotlight, despite me usually viewing the colored version as the definitive version.

And on the topic of the colored version... I don't actually know how it came to be. Now, this story with the original artist, and Keeper's remake took place a long time ago. We're talking around June of 2015, with the original drawing being done maybe a year or so prior to that. Then suddenly, about three months ago as of this post, on January 2022, an artist known as "hotpot" on the Hub submitted a colored version of Keeper of Pot's drawing. As far as I know, Keeper never contacted the artist, and neither have I. Going by their other works, it seems like they like to color pictures on the Hub. I've never spoken to hotpot even after this picture, but I can only assume they chose this picture because they liked it! And if that's the case, I can definitely approve of their tastes! If you ever see this post hotpot, thanks for coloring this old picture~

Ps. I got into a random discussion with Keeper of Pots about this picture. He said that most people would prefer the original over his version, but I disagree strongly. If you have a preference between the two, please let me know! I'm curious to know which one of us is right.

Keeper of Pots Sketch Commissions! Part 2/3

Continuing where we left off last week, we have part two of the Keeper of Pots sketch commissions! Please refer to the previous post for details on how these sketch commissions came to be, as this week, we shall be jumping straight into the juicy tidbits of information! That being said though, I will still post this quick refresher here: While I did pay for the commissions, and I was given a general idea as to what the pictures would be... I did follow the Erika commission philosophy of "As long as it has Erika hypnotized in it..." and so, Keeper of Pots did end up deciding on the topic for all three.

With the second picture, we have me being hypnotized by a strange floating orb. As it clearly has caught my attention, it moves and lures me away down into a shady part of town. I don't seem to mind though, as all I care about is following the pretty light! Where will it take me, and what awaits me at the end? No one knows! ... Actually that's not true, because I know! For you see, this picture was in fact, based off a story that I wrote. I had once shared my personal lewd hypno stories with Keeper of Pots, and out of all of them this idea was his favorite.
 
In the story, I'm drawn away by a hypnotic light as I mentioned earlier. After being taken to a dark alley, I meet up with the man who used this alluring magic. Well I say "man" loosely, because in actuality, it was an unspecified creature in the guise of a man. Something with tentacles, that lusts after young women! Even though I wrote the story, I didn't really have an idea of what the guy was. An alien? A demon? I don't know! It was more of a means to an end to have a man with tentacles and hypnosis orbs. I specifically mentioned "hypnosis orbs" because that was a very niche fetish I was into at the time. I actually distinctly remember what picture it was that inspired me to write this story too. It was this one here.

I won't be posting the story here, because as I mentioned in a previous post tackling the same issue... While I have no problem with sharing the stories themselves publicly, I just don't think they deserve a dedicated blog post! Especially since I made this blog to share images. However if there were enough interest, I'd totally do it! ... But no one has said anything, and thus I'll assume no one is interested. Which is totally fine of course. But keep in mind, I do read all the comments and reply when I can! So if you have questions or requests let me know!
 
Getting back on topic though, I did mention that this was Keeper's favorite story out of the ones I shared. So it's no surprise he felt motivated to do a call out for it in these sketch commissions! When I asked him for a comment about this picture, he had this to say: "Among all of the stories Erika wrote, the one this picture is based on remains my favorite. It checked a lot of fetish boxes for me personally, hence why I most likely chose to depict it. I was happy to be able to work in some cartoonier aspects into the background as well, as I've always had more of a preference to western cartooning rather than the anime style and its slightly more realistic tendencies."

With all all that being said, the picture itself turned out fantastic! And in my personal bias, I'd say out of the three, this one is my favorite! All of them are great of course, but this one encapsulated what I really love from Keeper of Pots. Gorgeous and detailed backgrounds, with fantastic hypnotic expressions! Both show the amount of love and care he has for every image, as well as the fetish itself. After all, expressions are one of the most important parts of hypnosis fetish images in my opinion!

Keeper of Pots Sketch Commissions! Part 1/3

Hello, hello! We're back again with another post, this time by the blog's (more or less) co-founder, Keeper of Pots! He surely doesn't need an introduction again, but to sum it up, he's been a great help with not only this blog, but with making hypno art fun all these years! On top of being a great friend, whom I still talk to even now. As you can see from the title, this picture is part of a multi picture series. 

By that, I don't mean this picture will have sequels, but rather they came from one singular commission. At the time, I REALLY wanted to commission Keeper of Pots for another drawing. He is an absolutely fantastic artist, and so naturally I'd want more content from him! However, at the time he was simply too busy to take on a fully colored commission from me. He had other commissions to work on, on top of his own personal projects. After enough haggling though, I managed to convince him to do some sketch drawings instead. Something that'd take a lot less time to do!

I'm a big advocate of having picture be fully colored to be completed, however I definitely took the deal. The reason being, the second part of the agreement. Sure it'd be a sketch commission, but by paying the price for one regular colored commission, I instead got three sketched pictures. At this point I had already started my journey of having 100 pictures on the Hub, so not only would I have gotten more Keeper of Pots drawings... but I'd also get three pictures to add to the tag, for the price of one! Sweet deal for sure.
 
With that though, the deal was struck and Keeper got to work. However, another caveat of this deal was I didn't really have full creative control as to what these pictures would be. Sure I had some guidelines, and we discussed the ideas together, but I didn't really pick and choose what he'd draw. He more or less went with the usual rule of "As long as it has Erika hypnotized in it, then it's all good!" And so, this is the first stop on the three part sketch commission.

After asking Keeper of Pots for a comment about this picture, he had to say this: "I think I was quite happy with how this came out back when I drew it, or at least I wasn't dissatisfied with it. But looking at it now, it's pretty janky. The anatomy is definitely pretty questionable so hopefully that just informs the fact that I've gotten better since then. I think it was partially inspired by a similar tentacle picture drawn by RoC."

I also had a feeling that it was inspired by the very first commission I'd had from RoC. Though eye hypno tentacles aren't exactly unique per se, the posing, the Kaa eyes, and just the general feel gave me that impression! You could even view it as a psuedo sequel to RoC commission. Though it seems Keeper isn't too happy with how it looks now compared to before... and I suppose I can agree! He's already improved as an artist, and so looking back on old pictures, it's natural to see improvements. That being said, I still think it looks great, and minus some gremlin-like proportions it's lovely! Though the chibi look is something Keeper of Pots has going for him, so that's not too much of a fault.

As a final little bonus bit of trivia for you, this is the first picture on the blog that actually features straight up vaginal penetration. There were some lewd pictures, and some nudity before... but this is the first one that actually shows any kind of actual sex going on. Just figured I'd let you all know that this picture technically took my virtual virginity I guess!

Forever A WIP.

Welcome! We're back this week with another picture by Psi, featuring myself ensnared by some sort of alien mass. This is actually the second week in a row that we have a picture from Psi. However, this picture is incomplete, and will probably never be completed unfortunately. But even if that may be the case, we can still appreciate what we have here!

I wouldn't quite call this a full on tentacle picture, but there are definitely tentacles in it. It seems like whatever alien abomination that has captured me, has long fleshy appendages that it uses to capture its prey. Though unlike regular tentacles which wrap and bind it's target, it seems these kind of absorb or grow over limbs in order to restrain them. Once it has held its target down, it uses a strange yet fascinating orb of light to restrain the target's mind as well. We can also see some tentacles coming into the side for some potential ear penetration perhaps?

To be honest, I'm not sure why Psi never finished this picture though, and I actually forgot to ask the reason before writing this post. However if I recall correctly, he just wasn't quite satisfied with how this was turning out. Unfortunate indeed...  I suppose I can't really complain though, since this was a completely free picture that Psi just sprung up on me one day. I'm not sure what spurred him to make this, but I personally thought it was solid despite the fact he wasn't too satisfied with it apparently. In fact, I STILL think it's solid, which is why despite it being unfinished, it'll still be going up on the blog! I've held onto it all this time after all.

There may be a chance that at some point in the future Psi MAY do a remake. Maybe. But even then I have my doubts, as later on down the road Psi ended up rehashing this idea for another picture. A picture that DIDN'T feature me. To be honest, that did make me a bit sad. Since I was interested in this picture, and the spiritual successor of it didn't even feature me! So if you're reading this Psi, know that I still haven't forgotten about this picture, and I'm still eagerly awaiting a future where it's finished and/or redone with ME ACTUALLY IN IT.

For those interested though, the successor of this forever WIP can be found here.

Cumming to a Store Near You...

 Hello again! We're back this week with another new post. Today we the debut of Psi, a very close friend of mine from the hypno art community! This is the first time he'll be showing up on the blog, though definitely not the last! It was also around this time that I had met, and started to talk to Psi. As I mentioned earlier, he and I are very good friends even to this day. Though that being said, this picture was entirely his idea, and it was definitely a pleasant surprise. 

I'd seen some of Psi's pictures around the Hub prior to this one, and I was already a fan. He contacted me privately at one point and asked if he could use me in a picture. As for the picture, I didn't know what, but I was down! There are very few ideas that I wouldn't want to associate myself with when it comes to hypnosis after all! After all was said and done, this is the picture we got~ It's fictional advertisement for Mesmermine Juice in all it's juicy glory! And also apparently a lot of sugar.
 
As far as I know, the hypno fruit Mesmerines were an original idea by plsgts. A hypnotic colored fruit, that is not only pleasing to the eye, but pleasing to the tongue as well. So good in fact, you might lose yourself eating them, and you just might find yourself over eating... But now we have it in a much more consumer friendly version. As a juice! I personally asked Psi for some comments about this piece, since as I mentioned earlier, this picture was done entirely without my knowledge, other than the fact that I'd be in it. So I wanted to know his thought process on how this came to be. This is the following quote:
 
"For that pic, in that period there were some hot pictures going around with hypnotic fruit, especially plsgts's Mezmerines. I thought about doing a hypno juice with them and got permission from the artist to use them for the picture. As for having you in it, I thought there should be some hot representative for the product, and since Hypno-tan was used for a lot of stuff around I thought to use another girl... also I always think having hypno pics with real girls in them makes them hotter <3"
 
 It seems like a lot of people have forgotten about poor Hypno-tan lately, but back in the day she was definitely a lot more popular, and apparently because of that Psi opted to choose me. I'm incredibly grateful for that, and the picture turned out fantastic! I love all cheesy one liner slogans used in this fake ad, it adds to the fun while still keeping that hypno twist to it. Also as a fan of fruit juice in general, I'd totally be down to advertise something like this. Hypnotic properties or not!

They Say I'm Sweet~

What's this!? Not only is this a non-hypnosis picture, but this isn't even a drawn picture! Is that what you're thinking? I also questioned if I wanted to put this picture up on the blog... but in the end I decided I would. This blog is not only meant to share all pieces of Erika art work in a place where I have no fear of things being removed, but also a place where I can neatly store all the Erika-related stuff that have been made along the way.

So with that in mind, we have this cookie shaped like me! A little known fact about me, is that I'm quite the chef. I don't have much of a self esteem, but when it comes to cooking, I can say I'm great at it. Which is saying something since, I think I suck at everything haha... But that's also why I can appreciate this piece here. I did not bake this, nor did it ever even occur to me to make something like this. All credit of this lovely cookie goes to amygdala on the Hub.

Since this is not a hypnosis drawing, this picture wasn't on the Hub traditionally, rather it was posted in the forums a long time ago. There wasn't only an Erika cookie, amygdala baked quite a few recognizable names at the time! Unfortunately, I only saved the Erika cookie picture, and if you were to track down this post on the forums, the original Dropbox link is dead. Meaning the other pictures of the cookies are now lost to the void of the internet... and even though I think this cookie is super cute, I'd hope that it served it's purpose and was eaten. If this cookie was still alive and uneaten after seven years, I don't think it'd be that healthy! 
 
As for how this came to be... I've never spoken with this person, and as far as I can tell amygdala is no longer active on the Hub. So I never asked for this, nor did anyone else who had their characters or likeness turned into a cookie. It was just something that amygdala did on their own one day! And for that, I'm incredibly thankful you made something so awesome and cute. I hope I was delicious! If you ever randomly happen across this blog post amygdala, know that I've always remembered this cookie! I could never forget and amazing project like this.

So for those of you here for the hypnosis art content, I apologize if this post wasn't quite what you were looking for! But I do my best to update the blog every Sunday, and so look forward to next week's post, as we will be back to our regularly scheduled Erika hypnosis artwork. For now though, I hope you enjoy this little tidbit of nostalgia. Again, this picture wasn't formally posted on the Hub, and the original link is dead, so a lot of you might've missed this.

Now Taken.

Hello all! We're back again with a new Erika picture of the week. In this image we have myself hypnotized by Violet, and OC by VioletRiot whom I briefly mentioned in last weeks post. All in all, this picture was an unexpected gift that I woke up to see one day on the Hub! And so, I have no idea what the details are behind the creation of this image. Nonetheless, I'm very happy to receive a gift! And so, we will go over this picture.

I've "known" VioletRiot for awhile. I say that in quotes because while I've known them by name, I've rarely interacted with them. I've seen some of their comments on previous Erika pictures on the Hub, and I'd quickly taken notice to someone who expressed being a fan. So to my surprise, I saw that they took it to the next step one day, and created a lovely image of me hypnotized! Even now, I can't say that I've ever really spoken to VioletRiot too much, but if you ever see this know that I greatly appreciate the gift!

It seems I've been hypnotized into a relationship! Most likely with Violet herself. Gotta change my relationship status to "taken" to cement the occasion! Ah, I remember the good old days when I used to use Facebook... Anyways I might have some difficulty doing that without a keyboard, but it seems like Violet was already aware of that error, as they mentioned it in the comments of this picture. 

What I WILL say though, is that this picture was way ahead of its time. Because only recently, like around 2020 or so, I gained a random but intense fetish for painted nails. Specifically toenails. It might sound weird to you, and talking about it like this, sounds weird to me! But hey, sometimes you can't help what you like! In fact, I incorporated painted nails into an original character of mine, who will be showing up on this blog at a far later date. I don't personally paint my nails all too often anymore, nor will any future Erika pictures have any plans of implementing this new aesthetic interest... But I definitely say that I don't mind seeing it here!

"I don't see why this needs an off switch."

So here on my blog, I tend to recount pictures featuring myself of course! Talk about how they came to be, the planning process, any relevant details and such. However, some of these pictures are very old. In fact, at the time of writing this blog post, I think this picture is almost seven years old! So... what I'm trying to say is unfortunately my memories about how this picture came to be are kind of hazy.

I CAN say that this lovely picture was made by the awesome artist, and good friend of mine Etlabsotwe, who was featured earlier on in this blog. If memory serves however, I believe that there wasn't really anything fanciful behind this picture in terms of back story. Etlabsotwe just wanted to make a hypnosis drawing, and I was chosen to be the subject for the piece!

In the event that I had no creative control over the picture, and I don't have much to say on how it came to be, I'll instead talk about the picture itself. So with that being said, I don't think you need me to tell you, but this picture is adorable! Etlabsotwe has always been a fantastic artist, and especially good at making hypnosis very cute. With of course, the slight hint of lewdness as Erika is stripping off her top. At the time, I remember Etlabsotwe was very against drawing any kind of nudity. Though it seems like these days, they are more up to it.

There's also a hypnosis spinning disc there, which is the main induction method. I am a fan of hypno screens and the like, but a hypnosis apparatus is a rare one for me. Not that I'd say I dislike them, more like I don't really have much of an opportunity to include them. Since if I'm choosing the induction method, there are very select ones that I love. Still though, you can imagine as if you're the dom in this picture, and you've just ensnared me with this device you made. As you tell me to strip, and all I really care about is watching the pretty device!

The title of this picture comes from a comment on Hypno Hub by VioletRiot. "I don't see why that needs an on / off switch. Something that great should be on 24/7!" which I thought was a funny and a cute comment. So I figured that it'd make a great title for this post, since I also agree with that statement!

A One Way Conversation.

Once again on the theme of hypnotic computers, here we have a piece by httpwwwcom, with Erika once again being hypnotized by a malicious computer! Now with a bonus animation~ Though I suppose saying being hypnotized by a malicious computer, but it seems more like it's actually a malicious person taking advantage of me through a Skype call!

So about this picture, I believe if I recall correctly, I requested it right around the same time as the previous entry on this list. I guess at the time I was in the mood for some hypnotic computers! To be honest, I don't actually remember requesting this. In fact, as I was planning out what to write for this post, I was totally ready to say it was an unexpected surprise. But after fact checking, it does seem like I requested it! So using my deductive reasoning skills, I can only assume that I really WAS in the mood for hypnotic computers at the time.

However, I do remember that httpwwwcom wanted to take his own spin on my idea. Instead of going with an evil monitor of some kind, the idea was changed to a first person shot of an unknown hypnotist using Skype as a medium to hypnotize me. This still technically falls in line with "hypnotic computer" and I really appreciate the originality of it. Both back then, and even now. I definitely remember saying how surprised and impressed I was that the artist took my initial plain idea, and made it into something more dynamic.

On the topic of httpwwwcom, they have been a hypnosis artist for quite some time. Showing up roughy around the time I did, and to this day, are still active in the hypnosis art scene. It's always a treat seeing more art from them, as they bring a very cute sense of style to these pictures. Unfortunately, I believe this is the only piece we will be seeing on this blog, but if you appreciate hypnosis art, then definitely check them out sometime!
 
The animation bonus was something completely unrelated to me. If I recall correctly, there were some comments from people saying things like "This would look so good animated!" or stuff like that. And it seems that httpwwwcom obliged, and animated the spiral as well as the eyes, which I'm of course totally down for! I don't actually think the animated version of this picture is on Hypno Hub, despite both versions still being available on Deviant Art. So those of you Hub only browsers might be in for a surprise treat!

Read Enough Stories to Know Where This is Going.

We are back again, with another piece from Black--Wave! This picture actually has two forms of inspiration. For those of you classic hentai enthusiasts out there, you may recognize the basic premise from "La Blue Girl" where a girl is hypnotized by a spiral on her computer screen. Then when she's been immobilized, tentacles come out of the compromised screen and then... well it's a hentai so you can guess the rest. I've always loved that concept and minus the tentacles themselves looking a bit wonky, the scene in the hentai was great! 
 
Though I said TWO forms of inspiration, because while you could say this is a direct reference to that scene, in reality I had requested this picture from Black--Wave to be a visual representation of a story I wrote a long time ago. Which kind of flows the same, but in the story it's more ambiguous if the tentacles were real, or if it was me just being hypnotized to see and experience it. You know, now that I think about it... the previous Black--Wave drawing was also based off a story I wrote! Perhaps he was a fan of them, which is why he agreed to do them.
 
Overall I'd say the picture turned out fine! Looking at myself from the back, I can see Black--Wave opted to give me longer hair. While normally my hair is on the shorter side, I HAVE had it around that length these past few years due to... worldly circumstances. If you know what I mean. So I wouldn't say it's at all inaccurate! And despite the simplistic nature of the picture, it does capture what I initially wanted from the whole request, so there's no way I can complain! Once again, the title was chosen by the artist. Most likely a mix between "I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going..." meme, as well as referencing that this is based off a story. 
 
As a little extra note, there will be a few times down the line where this story is referenced in an Erika picture. Of course, we will be seeing them on the blog at some point, but I wanted to make note of that because this is probably my favorite story that I've ever written. I've been wanting to get a comic done of the entire story for years now... but due to complications with various artists, that's still kind of stuck in the back burner. I can only dream that by the time this blog catches up with present pictures (January 30th 2022) that the comic I've been trying so hard to get, will have already been created!

Erikaa's Bliss.

Hello all! Here we are with another blog post for the week. This time, we have our second post from Kaafan33. If you recall, much earlier in the blog I mentioned how I had gotten into contact with him, and we did an RP as well as chatted for a bit. Since that time, I believe a year or so had passed. I wouldn't say we "grew apart" in that time, but we didn't nearly talk as much. So to my surprise, I woke up one day and checked Deviant Art and saw this picture.

While yes we were friends, this is probably one of the very few times, if not the first time, where someone instigated a drawing of me without me asking them, or at least talking to them recently. This picture is still currently available on Deviant Art, and based on the description: "Just a quick image for some practice.  Not the best, but its a good warm up.  Figured I'd share.  Going to try and get back into the habit of drawing again.  Started using Manga Studio a few days ago.  Probably going to be using that over Gimp now.  It is just better in so many ways x3." It's safe to say that it was a whim, drawn up while Kaafan33 wanted to practice.

Though even that being the case, I'm still incredibly happy that he chose me for his warm up picture! As for the content, it's a the standard coil cocoon with a hypnotized girl in it. This time, we have her breasts slightly out to accentuate the sexuality of it all! I mentioned it before, but I'm actually not the BIGGEST fan of the coil cocoons, but having the lewd bare shoulders and of course, bare breasts... does help me like it more! Even if I'm drawn with boobs like 10x my normal size. It helps emphasize them in this case, so it's all good. I could (almost) never hate something someone made for me as a gift, and this is something that I'm quite happy with~
 
And finally as per usual, the title is something that Kaafan33 came up with himself. Or at least, it's the title of the Deviant Art image. If I have a chance to lift the title from someone else, I absolutely will. Because I hate coming up with titles...

"All Clocks Are Evil."

This is a commission of mine from the artist "GREAT-DUDE" from Deviant Art! I don't have a quite a long story for this one unfortunately, as it was a typical cut and dry commissioning experience. I found the artist through one picture uploaded to Hypno Hub and decided to check out their Deviant Art page, as their art style interested me. Then I saw they were open for commissions and had a fairly reasonable price at that. So of course I figured I'd get on that, since I was still on the commission train!
 
Though the artist themselves aren't inherently a hypnosis artist, they still accepted the commission and delivered it in a timely and effective manner! I asked for myself being hypnotized by a pocket watch and slowly undressing. The artist went with a pretty unique expression for a hypnosis based picture though. Usually, you'd expect to see a blank face, or a pleasured face. However as you can see, the artist went for a more confused face. Showing that Erika doesn't even realize what's happening to her. Expressions are a very important part of hypnosis pictures in my opinion, and so this expression tells a whole different kind of story from the usual.

It's almost as if saying "Wait, what are you trying to do here? It's just a pendulum... I don't get it." without actually realizing that Erika is already being hypnotized! The one minor complaint I have though, is I'm not a fan of mixing Kaa eyes with pendulums. Unless the pendulum itself is some magic Kaa orb attached to a string, I don't think that set of eyes matches with the induction. I'd prefer empty eyes or something. Those feel more appropriate to the induction! Regardless though, I'd say the picture turned out great and there were no issues with the commission process or delivery. 

As a bonus note, the title of this blog entry comes from the description the artist wrote about it on their Deviant Art page. It said: "ErikaHypnitized, beware the clocks, all are evil !!" and I thought that was funny.

Harem Dancerika.

Welcome to the year of 2022! We're starting things off with the first ever animation I'd ever gotten. There was a previous post in this blog with an animation attached, but if you recall I mentioned that I had that animation manip done more recently. Chronologically, this was the first ever one done. In it, we have myself hypnotized by a magical necklace and dressed up as harem dancer!

The artist for this piece wished to remain anonymous, but we can talk about how this picture came to be! ... Is what I would say, but honestly this one falls under the category of "it's a bit hazy" for details. I do know that the person who made this picture was someone who had begun to recognize me as a character showing up in hypnosis based art works, and we started talking through Deviant Art private messages. The person who made this wasn't really much of a public artist, but after talking for awhile they offered to make a drawing of me.

Of course I jumped at the chance that someone would be interested enough to make something of me, and naturally accepted. I wasn't going to tell the person what to make of course, and thus I waited to see what they'd surprise me with! Not too long after, I received this picture as the finished product. I was incredibly surprised to see it was an animation on top of that, thus making it the first ever animation. I wanted to share the picture immediately on Hypno Hub, but the artist was a bit hesitant about it. Which is when I offered to release it anonymously, and they agreed. So even to this day I am upholding their anonymity despite the artist and I not really talking at all after this finished product.
 
I remember at the time however, I wasn't too keen on the subject of this picture. I wouldn't directly say that to the artist of course, but harem dancer outfits weren't really my thing at the time. However as time has gone on, I've really grown to appreciate this aesthetic. Quite a bit so, in fact. So I do have a minor regret that I wasn't able to properly express the amount of hype to the artist that this piece deserved. And also, despite me saying I've grown quite fond of these types of outfits, I don't think there are too many if ANY other pictures featuring me in outfits like these. Hopefully in the future that'll be fixed!

The First Ever Erikomic! -part two-

After the brief hiatus last week, we are back with the continuation and conclusion of my first ever comic and commission from Keeper of Pots! Here we have Erika being caught and hypnotized by Saalim, and finally stripped down and prepared to be eaten. To start things off, I'm actually not the biggest fan of vore. Soft vore is one of those neutral things for me where I'm fine with it but I don't love it per se. And hard vore is a big no. However, the creator of Saalim who goes by plsgts is a fan of it I figured we could have some implied vore at the end!

I hinted at this before in the previous post, but I do have some words of the creator on this comic. Now that we've reached the conclusion I'd like to share them here: "Well, in retrospect, I'm not a very big fan of how I drew you in that comic. It starts out decent enough, but it kinda deteriorates as it goes. I wasn't very good at drawing in the anime style back then. But from a comic story perspective, it's quite fun. I've always loved doing silent comics because the expressions and poses of the characters have to carry the story-telling all by themselves." And to be honest I actually do agree with that statement completely.

Even back when this page was first released in 2015 I always felt like I enjoyed the first page more and felt a bit of a dip in quality in this one. Though of course "dip in quality" for a Keeper of Pots image is still a top tier image regardless. But if I had to pick between the first and second pages, I much prefer the first. And it seems like the original creator has the same sentiments. Still though, it was a learning experience for him and I'm glad to hear he had a good time working on it!

I don't have an exact quote, but I also remember sharing this comic with plsgts when it first finished as well. He loved the comic too and of course was happy that his character was featured in it. However one comment from his did stand out to me which I do remember to this day. He said something along the lines of "If Saalim ordered her to strip, why was he acting surprised when she did?" I don't really have an answer to that question either. I suppose the panel could be interpreted as he liked what he saw... but I don't think that quite matches the character either.

Either way though, with this conclusion to the comic it cemented my future friendship with Keeper of Pots and everyone involved in the project was happy with the result! But looking back on it though, it really goes to show how even a great artist can improve over time! This comic was almost seven years old now at the time of writing this post and if you haven't checked out Keeper of Pot's more recent work yet I highly recommend you do!

The Ticking of a Metronome.

Welcome back! This week we have the debut of one of my favorite hypno exclusive artists! And that would be Vahn yourdoom. I'm sure a lot of people who browse hypnosis based hentai pictures have seen pieces from Vahn around. Currently at this moment in time he draws tons and tons of hentai and is actually incredibly well known. I've seen some articles on other sites featuring his artwork too! Though at the time of this commission he was still rather unknown hehe. This piece falls into one of the many pictures of this time period, and by that I mean I was just looking for a new artist of the week to commission a hypnosis based picture of me. 
 
Though as for how I met Vahn, as well as the contents of this commission I had a lot of help admittedly.
A few posts ago I believe I mentioned my friend Etlabsotwe? We had been in frequent contact since that point, and while we were talking one day I asked if they had a suggestion on someone to commission for my next hypnosis piece. They suggested Vahn who at the time was available on Deviant Art. I had never actually heard of, nor seen any art from Vahn at the time but I definitely liked what I saw! So I figured I'd shoot them a commission request. 
 
While I was at it though, I actually didn't really have an idea of what I wanted to commission... as per usual. So I once again asked Etlabsotwe if they could suggest any ideas for this commission! And luckily they had something in mind! Here we have a simple picture of Erika being hypnotized to strip with a a ticking metronome in the background. Metronome hypnosis is funny to me, because I actually see it used a lot in NON fetish hypnosis scenarios such as movies, but I almost never see it in fetishy type work. Maybe people aren't too turned on by them?

Etlabsotwe is definitely a fan of the classics though, and I am too at least to an extent. So I was ready to jump on the idea and pitch it to Vahn. He accepted and the commission went fairly smoothly! However, as you can see there are in fact two pictures on this blog post. The reason being that the original finished product was the one with the red eyes, and red aura. I had no issues with the red eyes and stuff even though it added a more magical element to the picture, but the original completed commission was missing my navel piercing. 
 
I did bring it up to him and asked if he could add it afterwards. However instead of just adding it, he also made the aura green as well as giving me my proper eye color. And all of that on a completely separate picture, rather than just editing the original. Why did he do that? Well I don't actually know to be honest. My memory is a bit hazy, but during the time he was working on this drawing, I had some casual conversations with him and the subject of reaching 100 pictures on Hypno Hub came up. Maybe he wanted to do an alt version to help in terms of quantity? 

Regardless, we ended up with two separate uploads for the Hub! So you can take your pick on whichever you prefer I suppose between the evil aura magically emanating from a cursed metronome, or the more traditional looking one. Usually when I do these blog posts I feature the original as the "big" picture with the alts as the smaller thumbnails, but for this I decided to use the alt as the main headline for this post. Mostly because I feel like it's the "definitive" version as it features my navel piercing, and captures a more traditional approach to metronome hypnosis instead of a magical one.

The First Ever Erikomic!

A few weeks back, I remember posting a sketch done by the wonderful Keeper of Pots. That sketch was done after I had met him of course, however the reason I had initially contacted him was for this very commission! As a quick rundown, I initially found Keeper of Pots on Hypno Hub and contacted him privately for a comic commission. His initial work was incredibly well done, especially the backgrounds. And of course I HAD to get a comic commission since it seemed that's what he specialized in.

As for the idea itself, well it's your basic "girl gets lost in the jungle and gets hypno snake'd" as per usual. The snake featured in this drawing is actually owned by a different artist known as plsgts. The reason why his snake was used instead of the standard Kaa was actually because during the time I really wanted to get a commission from plsgts, however he had already long closed his commission window. So I figured the next best thing, was to have his character show up in this comic and since he seemed to know Keeper of Pots and was a fan of him, I figured now would be the time to get a picture with me and Saalim.
 
As per the title of this post, this is actually the first ever comic I've commissioned of myself. Which even today, aren't as many as you may think. There are definitely more Erika comics to come in the future but this is the one that started it all! This is also actually a two page comic. I was debating whether or not adding BOTH pages to this post, but in the end I decided against it. Mostly because I'm doing my best to upload these pictures in chronological order and there was a few days gap in between both posts.. and in that time gap there was one other picture posted between the two pages, which we will see next week. This "rule" isn't absolute though and maybe at some point in the future will change. Just the whims of how I'm feeling now say "Let's do two separate posts!" and so it shall be.
 
Despite this definitely showing it's age compared to Keeper of Pot's more recent work, I'd say the charm was there. I commissioned him because of his great expressions as well as fantastic backgrounds, and he certainly did NOT disappoint. I do have a quote from him as well about his thoughts on the comic, but for now I'll save it for the second page's blog post. As a fun little bit of trivia For the longest time I used panel eight of this comic as my avatar on Hypno Hub. I definitely love that "in the process of being hypnotized" face. It was only replaced with a face from a different Keeper comic we will see in the future.

(Also in almost all of Keeper of Pot's drawings he has a hidden cameo of his yellow pudgy bird named Pooks. He's usually somewhat in plain sight but this is definitely one of the times where he's incredibly hidden. Can YOU find him in here? I know I couldn't without asking...)

"I suck at coming up with titles." - Erika 2021

Usually these days whenever I commission someone, I usually find an artist who's art style I already like as well as someone who draws content similar to what I'll be commissioning. For example, if I'm looking for a snake artist I'll commission someone I've seen draw snake art before. This is not an example of that. This piece is by Kobi-Tfs over at Deviant Art, who while is no stranger to hypnosis... is definitely a stranger to snake based commissions.

Of course, I don't mean that in any kind of negative way. I think this picture looks great! I just figured I'd say that because anyone who is familiar with his work are probably more used to seeing bimbofication, breast expansion, transformation, and other things of the like. Those aren't really my interests to be honest... but I AM actually a big fan of his art style. I don't remember when I first found him, but since he does do a fair bit hypnosis and mind bending content, I had already been well aware of him at this point. And since I had begun commissioning people en masse at this point, I figured I'd try my hand here as well.

Of course, he had no complaints about doing my commission and everything went smooth. I had an idea of what I wanted already, with a bust up shot of me being hypnotized by a snake with it's tail reaching down my shirt to add that bit of lewdness to it. Any thing else, he added himself such as the color of the snake as well as my expression in the picture. I didn't really take note of it back then, but I'm actually a fan of the cross eye plus Kaa eyes combo in certain scenarios. So that's definitely something I appreciate a lot more now in retrospect! Same actually goes for the ahegao expression, which at the time I thought nothing of but now I appreciate a lot more.

But yeah, outside of the tidbit of this picture most likely being Kobi-Tfs' ONLY snake drawing ever, I don't think there is much else to add here. (Don't quote me on that though. Kobi has done A LOT of art work of the years and is still constantly making great stuff. I also wouldn't be surprised if I missed a snake drawing here or there) The commissioning process was smooth and everything turned out well. I'd say it still holds up even now! 
 
One funny thing I'd like to randomly mention though... as I said that Kobi usually does transformation and bimbofication typed works right? When this was uploaded to Deviant Art, I remember someone in the comment section asked if the snake was "turning her blonde" in reference to the two tone hair color. I can't blame him for that, since that's the kind of content they'd usually see here... but yeah I could totally see that being a thing. Especially with the snake's scale color. So that was a kind of amusing interpretation of the picture!

Deep In The Jungle.

And now back to our regularly scheduled programming! This is once again another commission I made way back when. I had started the big commission train at this point, as I said before. This time we have a piece by Danimarion, who had actually showed up earlier in the blog. I had a request from him previously, however this time it's a full blown commission.
 
In the previous blog post I also noted that Danimarion had not really been into using Kaa eyes, or snake hypnosis in general. However, at this point he had already warmed up to them, and so I didn't feel bad at all about asking for a more traditional hypnosis based picture instead of a roundabout dazed look I asked for last time. Besides that, the commissioning process was fairly straightforward. I don't have any wacky tales of trying to get a slot, or having a weird time coming up with an idea.
 
In fact, I knew exactly what I wanted before I commissioned him which is rare for me. The pose here is loosely based on a different snake x girl picture by Jimryu. Say what you want about that artist, but the pose I originally based this picture one actually ended up awakening a specific snake fetish for me. It's what made me realize how much I LOVE snake crotch rubs. Where the snake's body or tail is just rubbing against someone's nether regions. Arguably better than full on snake penetration if you ask me! The picture I'm talking about that I used for reference can be found here.
 
I also asked Danimarion to add some underboob as well. I wanted to have the top fit the bottom of this picture where it's slightly lewd but not full on nude. Danimarion also asked me for my input on the background as well, which now that I think about it is kind of a rarity. A lot of artists when I commission them ask for a basic background idea to roll with or a simple one. Maybe not even one at all. So having full input on choosing what goes in the background is a refreshing thought. The whole waterfall in the background was also my idea too, as well as having it take place at night. However, the glowy eye effect on Erika's eyes was actually the artist's idea. He said he wanted to try it out since the picture took place at night and I was fine with it.

The final thing that made this commission unique however, was Danimarion actually streamed this live to me. I don't think there have been too many times in the hundreds of commissions I've had, where the artist worked on the commission live while I watched. That allowed me to discuss what changes I'd like in real time. That's actually very convenient to me personally, since for any artists who have worked with me before... well you probably know that I tend to ask for a lot of minor changes. I just figure if I'm paying for something I'd want it to look as good as possible! But that's actually given me some friction with artists before so I always second guess myself... Anyways I'm getting off track. The live stream was a great idea!

Overall, I love how this picture came out and I had a lot of creative control on this piece. Even the snake itself is a random snake I came up with. It's nothing too special looking right now though, as it's just a generic looking aqua snake. I do say "right now" though because in the future we see this random aqua colored hypno snake around. So if anything I'd say this species of snake is a pseudo OC of mine. You'll see a bit more of them in the future, maybe with even more details such as more unique scale patterns!

A Gentle Wrap.

Here he is! The man, the myth, the legend... It's the first picture of me drawn by the one and only, Keeper of Pots! For those of you who don't know (or didn't read the introductory post) Keeper of Pots is a fantastic artist and a very close friend of mine. Without him this blog wouldn't even exist! And we can credit the blog background, header image, and even the blog avatar to him as well. Not to mention helping me working out the kinks and getting everything on here going.

But before all that fun stuff, back in the year 2015 he was a stranger and we had only just recently met in January of that year. In particular, I saw a particularly striking image from him that was posted on the Hub. And as you might already know, I was looking for artists to commission more Erika related content. And so I just had a shot in the dark and sent him a message on the Hub to see if he was open for commissions... and luckily he was! He said he would be glad to work on my idea whenever he finished what he was currently working on.

In the mean time however, I was able to strike up a conversation with Keeper. We chatted in the DMs on the Hub for a bit before eventually transitioning onto Skype. All the cool kids used Skype back then you see. After getting to be more on friendly terms with Keeper, one day he just up and surprised me with this drawing out of nowhere. I had absolutely no expectation of this, since as far as I was concerned, I was just waiting for my turn on the commission list... and in the mean time I just happened to become friends with the artist who I was commissioning.

Now as you can already tell, I'm still very good friends with Keeper even to this day (in fact I'm literally chatting with him as I write this post) and so, I asked him for his input on this picture. Unfortunately it seems he doesn't quite remember why he made this picture for me in the first place. The best we got was this quote: "But if I know me right, I think I was curious as to what you'd look like in my style. But I can't say that for sure." But you know, that's good enough for me!

As far as the picture goes, well I'd say it's great! Keeper of Pots always has a great understanding of how important expressions are when it comes to hypnosis pictures. He really nailed the whole fascinated or enchanted look. The body language is spot on as well showing Erika rigid with attention. Though I do wonder about the text kind of clashing with how Erika is standing at attention... still though, a fantastic and cute piece and one of my favorites of the early batch of Erika pictures even if it was a sketch! 
 
Also as a quick note I wanted to thank Keeper for also providing the title for this picture, because everyone who reads this blog will know that I'm awful with titles.

You Can Never Go Wrong With Tentacles!

For those of you who have been following the hypnosis art community for a long time now, then you there's no doubt you've seen works from P.Chronos! A classic amongst classics, P.Chronos has been around for a very long time while probably inducing the hypnosis fetish into many people. In fact, I could name a few well known artists these days who have been inspired by him. And naturally, I am also a big fan of him too! So getting a picture from him was like a dream come true. Definitely one to mark off the bucket list that's for sure!

Though as for how we got here... actually funnily enough the story is more or less the same as a previous blog post. Specifically the one by mixx54. So, the reason both back stories are similar is because through making connections in the hypnosis art community I ended up being introduced to P.Chronos. I was just hanging out in one of Penken's streams one day and he happened to be a viewer. I'm not sure how Penken knew him but P.Chronos already seemed to be a regular.

After seeing him there I absolutely HAD to privately message him. At first I never really intended to ask for a picture or any kind of request, and I only messaged him just to talk to someone who has been apart of the community for so long. He also came off a very friendly person. Someone very easy to talk to, and during the entirety of the stream we hit it off and had a good chat. Naturally, the topic of me being in hypnosis pictures, as well as reaching 100 pictures. And with that, he volunteered all on his own to help out the goal!

There's no way I could ever say no to an offer like that! As for the what I wanted the picture to be though... well all I remember really saying was "YOU CAN NEVER GO WRONG WITH TENTACLES" (And that my friends, is about how much thought I put into these blog post titles) He actually ended up finishing this up rather quickly. In fact he did it during the Penken stream. And I gotta say, it turned out to be a banger of a picture! The boobs are on the bigger side, and the hair isn't perfect, but that's literally all I can fault with this picture. Sometimes keeping it simple is best, and he even remembered to add the navel piercing which most first time artists drawing me don't notice. Thanks again P.Chronos for this awesome piece!

A Mash of Ideas.

This picture is kind of a continuation of the previous entry on the blog. But by "continuation" I don't mean canonically. I mean in the same commission batch. This piece is once again by artist Medri, and was also ordered on the same set of commissions as the previous one, however this time it was commissioned by someone else. I suppose around this time, some people who were not people I'd actively talked to had begun to take notice of me. The person in particular is an amazing person and great friend named Roxa. You may recognize the name, as he's that guy who's commissioned tons and tons of great hypnosis art over the years.

Roxa had apparently come to notice me around this time, and he had also happened to be on Medri's list of commissions. Roxa then contacted me and asked if it'd be ok if he included me in a commission of his. Naturally I was ecstatic! Not only was he interested in including me, but also I was incredibly happy to know that people were starting to recognize me. Naturally though, since this would be Roxa's commission I didn't want to impart any suggestions or ideas. The fact that I'd be in it was good enough for me.

However, Roxa did ask me for some things that I like in a hypnosis picture. I do recall answering that question with "tentacles" because you can never go wrong with tentacles, hypnosis or otherwise! If I remember correctly as well, Roxa wanted to originally commission two of Medri's original characters before he decided to add me in as well. And so, taking his original idea of keeping Medri's two characters, then adding me on top of that, plus my off handed mention of liking tentacles... mix 'em all together and we get this piece!

On the blurb Medri himself left on the comment of this picture he mentioned that Cassidy (the orange alien) drinking an experimental tail growth formula, hence the empty bottle on the floor, and then encounter Kassidy (the blue alien) who was already in the process of hypnotizing Erika. I'm not sure if Medri himself came up with that scenario after hearing Roxa's idea, or if it was Roxa's idea after mixing and matching our ideas together. I was not there for the description of the piece after all. Still it definitely comes off as an interesting one and I'll always be thankful of Roxa taking interest enough in me to include me in a commission that he already had planned out.

The Commission Spree Begins...

 


Remember back a few posts ago when I said I had gained the idea of reaching 100 picture of myself on Hypnohub? Well now we are at that phase in the past where I started enacting that plan! This was the first commission I made when I had the urge to reach that 100 picture goal. And when it comes to the quality/quantity argument, I'd say this picture(s) has both! As you can see, it's a three-in-one deal featuring a clothed, underwear, and nude variant thanks to artist Medri!

Also referencing a previous post here, but after gaining some connections in the hypnosis artist scene I had ended up making some friends. One of those friends being an artist named Medri. At the time, I frequented his streams a lot. I remember just having them open while I wrote my essays for class. He would always play old cartoon movies while also drawing so it was a double feature! In particular I followed his streams extensively for about a month, until he finished his current commission batch.

When he opened up more commissions you know for sure that I'd be in on that! Though here's the funny thing... I did commission him for this picture. That much I remember for sure. However all else about this escapes me. Which is really weird since I usually do trust my memory and especially so if it was something I commissioned. Granted, I suppose this was coming up on seven years ago at the time of this post... If I were to take a pretty good estimated guess though, I'd say I went with the classic "Draw Erika hypnotized in some way." Without actually knowing exactly what I wanted. I say that because, while hypno visors can be nice, they aren't exactly my thing. Not the sort of thing I'd every commission of my own accord at least.

Regardless though, while visors aren't the hottest thing for me, I still do like them and if that's what Medri wanted to add to the picture then I was down for it! And so we have the picture of Erika kneeling while being hypnotized by a visor in three different flavors. I put the fully clothed variant at the top so we can look at the pictures in progression of slowly being undressed, but I think the nude variant was the original. Sorry for being a bit unclear for this post since for some reason I can't exactly remember why this picture is the way that it is... But nonetheless I'm pretty sure I got the gist of it! And it was the first of many to come for the commission train to 100 pictures.
