I love Lucy Liu. After I discovered Charlie's Angels and Kill Bill, being an Asian girl in the US felt like a superpower if it made me even a little bit more like her

In all honesty I got DECKED by this reference 😭😭😭 it's right up my alley for the type of portrait I've mindlessly done since I was 15, but I'm so out of practice with regular ol pencil that I was huuumbled. It's not even done, I just exhausted myself and had to take a break

Ok I've been on the fence about this De Atramentis Document White ink, but it started really suiting my needs after getting a little gloopy in a cheap Jinhao fountain pen.

Putting away the highlighter orange ink to try other colors--though that wasn't supposed to be purple ink in the last pic, I just didn't clean my fountain pen well enough before switching to pink 😭

More fountain pen fude nib sketching--lately I've been drawing with ink from scratch instead of constructing with pencil, and it's done wonders for my line confidence. I've been doing as Sketching Scottie says and orienting myself with little dots at the start

First fountain pen sketch in a while--made some mistakes, but I think that's why sketching in ink is good for me. No Ctrl+Z

Here are photos of Majohn A1 pens and Jinhao X450 pens! I buy them on Aliexpress, the A1s are like $30 and the x450s are like $10 (roughly).

One of my best purchases of 2024? These shark shower sandals. Apart from letting my feet dry while I walk around after bathing, they're also adorable and spark joy.
