Sketch I maaaaaay finish later. Sadly cut short by severe cramps ruining any motivation to continue hunching over my desk 😅 She's a work in progress, just like me 🥲😭😭😂

A smidgen more visible than usual today - as per tradition! 🏳️‍⚧️ Happy Trans Day Of Visibility to my siblings and allies 🏳️‍⚧️ I'm Amy — transfemme artist / occasional animator, bouncing between ideas like a rubber ball in a pinball machine. As loud and proud as one too! #TDOV #Transdayofvisability

Me: "I need a drink" My brain: ✨️ side quest unlocked ✨️ Updated version of Ye Olde sketch from a while back. #ADHD #Comic #Artistsonbsky

Been feeling pretty low lately, work’s been draining the life out of me... ...So I decided to give a new character life instead 😅 This one’s basically stress on paper — but weirdly, it helped. Does she look like she was born from the fires of burnout or is it just me?

Work has been...*rough* lately. Decided to bleed out the stress onto some paper, this was the result 🫠 #sketch #traditionalart #characterart

It's been a hot minute since I did any pencil work, so thought I'd do a quick warmup doodle 🙂 Kiiinda vibing with this style again… bad idea or 👀? #art #sketch #characterdesign #fantasyart

I mean, I'm TOTALLY *not a furry*...but if I was... ...😅 Nah FR old character I designed for my D&D campaign. Sketched her again earlier (linked in comments) Trans rights or she bites :3

Drew her a month ago (feels A LOT LONGER lol) Figured it was time to give her some colour...something something 50 shades of grey joke But nah FR I might stick to colouring digitally for a while 😂

*clears throat* Traditional is HAAAAAARRRRRDDDDDD Ok now that's out of the way, finally figured I'd try alcohol markers (enjoyed) and reattempt coloured pencils (hated) to colour in this old piece I sketched. First time with markers, learned a lot from the *many many many mistakes* 😂😅 (I hope)

Felt the urge to draw something traditionally and try that comic format I’ve been experimenting with... *Immediately ran out of room and wrecked the proportions* Ah. Right. This is why I usually do comics digitally ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The dangerous moment when you finish one responsible task and briefly believe you’ve fixed your entire life. (Repost because the original was *awful* for mobile, and I'm an idiot who messed up the darkness :D also, alt text *doh*)

Soooo I may or may not be planning to make a comic series involving this character (similar to the one I posted few days ago) It's still a work in progress, people here *tend to like traditional* stuff more and this will be digital? mostly? So idk I just wanna make people happy with my doodles :(

Artists are weirdly protective of our sketchbooks, even if we *do* post a lot out of them 😜 Inspired by earlier post (and people spying as I was doodling)might turn her into a reccurring character/comic strip. Testing the waters after a VERY long day 😅

Stuck at work. Felt the urge. Did a doodle. Might design this/redraw her later when I don't have colleagues buzzing around quoting lines that became in-house from my old animations - (this was the character I used in them, so fair cop lol) Although if I hear "Aaaamy heeere" one more time today...

Not had chance to draw all week, figured I'd do a quick warmup... ...which quickly turned into a mild case of crashing out 😅 Yeahhhhh I'm still figuring this all out 🥲😭😭😭 I'll be back when I have something actually worth posting...eventually. maybe. ...hopefully...

At work mass producing cookies and debating *what to draw tomorrow* and I realised... I have no idea what my long term goal is. I've done animations, comics, furry stuff, dabbling with monster girls and fantasy stuff now...what *is* my lane 😅 Any thoughts, very much welcome. I offer cookies 😁

😂😂😂 halfway through a voice coaching session, she asks me "do you happen to have a pen/pencil and paper nearby? No worries if not" Me, an 'artist' - oh my sweet summer child you know not what you have awoken 😂

✨️ New toy arrived today ✨️ Got a lightboard, so tried inking a few sketches, as you do. Kinda disappointed, it feels like the *soul* of the original was lost? Maybe they need shading, maybe they need rendering... 🫠 this was not the easy dopamine I anticipated 😂

Last day of my leftover annual leave, had to *try* to draw something ✨️ special ✨️ ...ok so I failed, but I tried 😂 A brief moment in time, captured for our enjoyment... ...or something like that idk #art #traditionalart #sketch

Art train 🚂 Choo Choo 4 works, 4 tags. (Dw @wigmeister69.bsky.social I am also new to this 😂) @dashedtaters.bsky.social @oat-horse.bsky.social @chaoticcoffeelover.bsky.social @kianfox.bsky.social

Wizard pondering her orb. She’s doomscrolling. Doompondering™ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

burrito.

😂 I can explain. Top right started as a full body study. Then I got annoyed.Erased half of it.... ...then I maaay have spiraled just a smidge in the empty space 🥲 I think my subconscious is trying to tell me something 😅

Putting this one out there so I stop *touching it* Classic example of a sketch I was unhappy with, then kept *tweaking* and it got worse, and worse. Overcooked >.> Really having a bad time of it this weekend 🙃 maybe I need to go back to basics...and possibly A4 for scale pieces 😅

Y'all ever have those days where you just *forget how to draw*? This downgraded from full body, to thigh up, to waist up, to...this 🥲 Idk, changing styles and mediums daily probably ain't helping but I have no idea what I'm doing 😂 maybe I need a recharge... Or ya know, some actual *focus* 😅

Follow up to previous post - kind of feels like I "cheated" doing a piece fully digitally, but eh....I wanted to experiment with softer-shading in a more...controlled enviroment :P ...plus c'mon, she deserved finishing off, even if I do suck at rendering :P #digitalart #fantasyart #characterart

I’m really riding that “armored girl” wave lately huh xD Tried this one digitally before I forget how 2 digital. Very loosely inspired by the Dancer of the Boreal Valley (DS3)… *emphasis* on loosely :P Might colour her next. Might ^^ #fantasyart #characterdesign #digitalart

Started as a doodle whilst car was in the garage, things...escalated quickly 😂 For a change, I'm actually *almost proud* of this one (I regret pencil shading 🥲) Might digitise this and fully render her yet 👀 #traditionalart #sketch #art

Stress levels; insanely high Solution; lil' ol' quick doodle Outcome; Ehhhhhh...🫠 The sketch might be messy, but it's probably the most organised thing that's happened to me today 😂

Last few days I’ve abandoned 6 WIP sketches... Forced myself to finish this one instead of tearing it out. The self criticism demon has turned itself up to 11 lately >.> Might take a small break+reset. Anyway. Enjoy the doodle 🫠

19 (and a half!) outa 25 >.> This was humbling. Bleh. #artist #bingo #artmoots

First 'Tradigital' piece complete! Based off earlier an posts traditional sketch, then inked/coloured digitally. Took way longer than I expected and was honestly exhausting — but this one feels like a milestone. #digitalart #illustration #fantastyart #tradigitalart #OC

Took a break from what I’d been working on and drew a harpy instead 😅 Honestly? Had way more fun than expected and I’m weirdly proud of it 😂 I’m feeling a bit lost with my style/direction lately, so if you’ve got thoughts or vibes you think suit me, I’m all ears 🪽🥰 #traditionalart #sketch #art

Felt like a palette cleanser, something a bit different (and an excuse to practice pencil shading) This was the most successful of 3 attempts...I'll spare y'all from having the rejects posted 😂

Warmup got slightly out of hand 😅 Started as a quick gesture, ended up hyper-fixating on fabric 😆 ✨ Time well spent ✨ #sketch #art #traditionalart

Another day, another ✨️ work doodle ✨️

Saw this post, compelled to try - despite being at work with no supplies and no real setup. Proof of concept work doodles are doable :3 Might revisit it one day ✨️ #sketch

Back pain aside, squeezed out one more sketch (which is, for some reason, a furry?) — still learning, still drawing, still finding my feet (pun intended) One day I will draw a character with feet 😂 Keep on chugging along ✨️ #traditionalart #sketch #furryart

Today was going to be a focused day of sketches. Instead: one sketch and a valuable lesson. ✨ Don’t draw with an injured back, kids ✨

A small sketch at the end of a *very* long week. Feels good to let it all flow out onto the paper, traditional is really starting to grow on me 🙂 #traditionalart #sketch #art

Tried something different instead of my usual soft stuff...Metal rather than fabric. Might explore this more. Last chance to draw for a bit 😭— wanted to make a mark 🙂 #traditionalart #sketch #characterdesign #scifiart

Some recent sketches that didn’t make the final cut. Experiments, a few dead ends...lessons learned ✨️ #traditionalart #sketches #art

First attempt at colouring traditionally since my (failed 😂) art exam 2 decades ago. Sandpaper? Stumps? Toothiness of paper? I have a new respect for y'all traditionalists I thought Clip studio was complicated 😂 #traditionalart #art #mermaid #sketchbook

Another day, another sketch. Forgot I used to love drawing mermaids 😭 Tried being more adventurous here and tried pencil gradients for the first time in...20 years? They're a menace 😂 #traditionalart #sketch #art #mermaid

Felt like my feed needed some colour 🌈 soooo I digitally inked/coloured the traditional sketch from last time...the best of both worlds ✨️

Continuing learning how pencils ✨️ actually work ✨️ Now with added cat ears... ...for complicated reasons I can't explain. #traditionalart #sketchbook #art #sketch

Continuing the traditional Sketchbook, new nemesis unlocked: Smudges 🫠 (Also shading, but we dont talk about shading) I will never take Clip Studio Paint for granted ever again 😂 #traditionalart #sketchbook

'Digital art refugee' tries a Sketchbook experiment with attitude & angles I don’t usually draw 😅 #traditionalart #sketchbook #art #sketch

Still trying the switch to traditional - getting to grips without having the undo button finally 🤭 #traditionalart #art #sketch #sketchbook

Weird one - here's some lineart. The thing is, I actually *have* coloured, shaded, lighted, bla bla bla, all the things... Except it turned out *Horribly* so uhm...yeah. Here's some line art 😅 Might redo it one day, but right now I am *far too irritated* 😅 #art #foxgirl #furryart #sketch #lineart
