tough love for the constant criers (me @ myself)

Illustration of a girl wiping her tears in one hand and holding a grenade in the other. The text “Get a Grip, Girl!” is drawn into the illustration with varying typography. “Get a” is written as if made of water. The grenade has a heart pin and reads “Grip”. “Girl is written in pink with slender, long strokes.

Last Wednesday Morning...🤧

1 page comic titled "Nosebleed".
Panel 1: The main character (OP) is just waking up from bed. They are yawning and thinking, "Wonder why I'm up so early...Maybe I can take this extra time to draw before I have to get ready for work..."
Panel 2: A close up on OP. They look incredulous, sniffing once. "Wait..." they think.
Panel 3: They sit up in bed. A stream of red blood dripping from their nose, with a "plop" sound.
Panel 4: Setting change to the bathroom. OP sits on the edge of the bathtub right across from the toilet and sink. A tissue is stuck in their nose and theyre holding a bloody tissue in their hand. The narration reads: "For the next half hour, I was in the bathroom replacing toilet paper from my nose."

A local comic shop was willing to keep some of my metamorphosis comic in their inventory, you have no idea how motivating it was to have the owner look at my work and buy one for himself right there on the spot…🥺💜

Enmy paint markers...yes...

1 hour portrait study of a black woman with a round face and large black afro. She is adorned with earrings, black lipstick and eyeshadow, and a large pendant necklace. She is staring directly at the viewer.
