Still haven't played in this one shot, but I was inspired to make this painting of her. Originally I wanted to have it done for Halloween but here we are ~

Drawings of places! I am NOT a background girlie but art school be art schooling… I have since added more prints to my “pin board” (really just a slab of plastic, it’s the only place we’re allowed to put tape/tack. But it does have a silly reflection to draw!) #art #sketch #traditionalart

I’m alive I swear-
more observational drawing! Kitty I found whilst escaping a strange man (medium length story)
The back of the paper is the Actual Art, but figured I’d post the front with the sketch as well just in case people couldn’t find the cat in there

Between uni projects rn and I have gone through the stages of:
1. Omg this feels weird what do I do now that I'm not honor-bound to work on anything specific?
2. Catch up on shows
3. Crash and sleep for 12+ hours
4. Omg I have one day left to draw whatever I want before the next project starts

The one thing about making pancakes is that I have to sit here and make all of the batter, I can’t just save half to cook later, it’s not the same… they don’t turn out as fluffy… but also I had to take a break in the middle of cooking because my spine is failing me 👍

Update. I got three done. Which is still a lot for a week, considering… considering everything about my artistic process lol, I didn’t even get three drawings done a week during artfight (although I was yaoi game jamming during art fight)
Finished The Summer Hikaru Died!
I am so ill. I am so ill. I am so ill. I am so ill. I am so ill. I am so ill. I am so ill. I am so ill. I am so ill. I am so ill.
Anyways, due to love, obsession, understanding, and girl math, I have convinced myself I can get 5 TSHD drawings done in a week <3

Honestly, the best way to make an artist’s day is by being very specific about what you like about a piece. Geek out a lil. Gush over how they use line, color, texture. Every mark is layed down by the artist, so if you can connect with those little moments, it helps the artist feel seen.
