Sometimes you just gotta add a

Glitch Direct is such an inspiration. It always gets me so inspired and excited for the future of all of these incredible creators and projects. I hope to participate in indie animation space again someday, but for now, a MASSIVE congratulations to all involved! 🧡

I wasn't quite able to swing getting enough sample pages done for DVpit in time :'( I really wanted to participate but I feel like I don't have the things I need to put my absolute best foot forward...

I HAVE to stop looking at houses

Eddie @edmeadart.bsky.social · 10d

every day I long for having a little art studio, in a home of my own, with a hot cup of tea and a birdfeeder by the windowsill. one day it will happen.

Eddie @edmeadart.bsky.social · 12d

what if we helped each other reconnect with our creativity and passion and helped each other with our graphic novels late into the night... and then kissed 😳
