I have been in Singapore for 1 hour and I’m already amused beyond belief 🤣🤣 Yes I do have the humour of a child and yes I do read too much BL why you ask? 🤣

Wake up a year later with hundreds of arts is so real 🤣 I personally have haikyuu and sk8 to thank for my art progress the last twoish years 🫠

come all ye artists who crave the secret to artistic success
behold my tidings of advice you didn't ask for:

be indulgent as hell go absolutely apeshit on that canvas use 400 refs and go sicko mode on some blorbos you love until you wake up a year later w/ 100's of arts

thats it thats the advice

a little artist looking doubtful at the sky, as an angelic voice speaks to them. "Use a lot of refs and draw what you enjoy," it says, sparkling with radiance.

Oh no 🥹 I wish you luck for your dream. Annoyingly Caleb came to me during the 10 free tickets (he’s not someone I am collecting) and now my guaranteed sylus dreams are no more so I’m expecting to have to use all 141 of my current tickets to get this card 🥹🥹

Last weekend; how it started, the chaotic inbetween and how it ended 🤣🤣 as much as I love my shelves and this insanely big table…I need something easier to put together I think. This took 6 hours and most of it was assembling cardboard shelving 🥹

Thankyou! I have proceeded to die for the last 4 days 🤣🤣🤣

FINALLY back in Tokyo after a very gruelling con week! Thankyou to everyone who stopped by, visited the booth, bought something, gifted me something or just chatted! I appreciate every one of you 🥰🥰

You totally get it! This is my exact feeling

LRNPage @ MCM London N1832 @lrnpage.bsky.social · Mar 27

It’s a big problem 😅 but honestly I like Tokyo so much I’m reluctant to leave haha

Sadly I don’t get over to western Japan very often 😭😭 I’m good for tips on Tokyo and Yokohama and that’s about it 🥲 the joys of living there means less exploring I guess haha

Ahhhh exciting! Things have changed a lot even in the 3 years I’ve been there! (I can finally go entire days cashless Yey!)

Oh this is so so real 🥹 for me it’s bread. If my bread runs low I have nothing to eat (despite the 5kg of rice I’m currently neglecting)

Go to that dilapidated hole in the wall where the chef is old enough to be your parent or grandparent. I guarantee a better bowl than those labelled as Michelin worthy. 🩵

Tips for those coming to Japan; stay FAR away from popular ramen joints (as in those you see in guide books or on instagram) they’re absolutely shit 🫠 dunno who gave out a reward to this one but it’s possibly the worst ramen I’ve had since coming to Japan. 🫤 I’ve been here 3 years. +

Kinda funny that I work almost exclusively digitally these days. I do miss graphite drawing but the hassle of owning sketchbooks when you live in a 10m2 apartment is sadly not it

LRNPage @ MCM London N1832 @lrnpage.bsky.social · Mar 25

👍 Fave; graphite, charcoal and ink. Ok I actually kinda just hate colouring non digitally 🤣 give me that sleek black and white

👎 Least fave; watercolour (idk how some of you get these beautiful illustrations. I have no time for it) oils (the smell gives headaches).

Appel 🐸✨ @appeltjesgroen.bsky.social · Mar 24

👍Fav: Graphite, watercolour, alcohol markers & gouache. Tho gouache is still finicky but I love the challenge

👎Least fav: Charcoal & acrylic paint. But I haven't touched them since art academy so I'm going by old experiences. Charcoal is so messy and acrylic paint always turned out muddy for me :(

Iris Compiet @iriscompiet.art · Mar 24

👍Fav: graphite pencil & watercolour. But pretty much every single traditional medium. I like to get my hands dirty!

👎Least fav: digital… I use it for certain client jobs but I don’t get the dopamine from it… there’s a disconnect and I don’t like it

Ahhhhh Thankyou Liv! 🥰🥰🥰

Right? 🥹 it also genuinely pains me to hold a book these days (wrist issues) so saving myself from that issue is also wonderful
