Just doodlin'. [ #art #illustration ]

pick up an analog hobby, I'm so serious. something that holds your attention and is fun for you, literally anything. Collect and identify bread tags or something, just don't fall into the trap of doomscroll paralysis again

Experimenting with blending 2D and 3D, not sure if it works here but I had fun regardless. [ #animation #b3d #2d #art ]

Go make the art you’ve always wanted to make. Write the stories you’ve been dreaming of. Sing your heart out. Pick up an instrument & play. Do the things you’ve been holding back on because you’re worried about what others might think. Just do it. Do it now. Life is short. Life is precious. Please.

No matter how dark our world may become, keep creating things that challenge the norm & never stop being weird.

an old doodle that I kinda liked so decided to render it out a bit more [ #art #illustration ]

I think it's important to write about how and why we make art because like... humans need to make art, and they need to experience it. It's a way of the human brain processing reality; without enough of it, you go fuckin nuts. So if we can help people make good art, we can offer some nourishment.

2024 was definitely a difficult year for me, but through that difficulty I'm carving my own path forward. Independence and self-trust is scary for me, so I know that that's an area worth focusing on in 2025. ⭐ Drawing has been such an important part of keeping me relatively sane.

Woof. I lost patience to complete this, but I did manage to create something. [ #animation #art #gif ]

WIP (gonna try and do a basic animation with this)

What you avoid holds the key to your creative growth. Don't let fear stop you, embrace it. The more terrifying the endeavor, the bigger your growth.

I like eels, they're pretty neat [ #art #animation #maori ]

So I'm going through a velvet worm phase, so my pen name for now is Ngaokeoke (māori for the velvet worm, a special native 'worm' here in nz that are nocturnal). idk how long it'll last probably like 2 months

wipp #art

wanted to tweak it a little more soz. anyway here's madotsuki from yume nikki #art

Don’t let the desire to make “good” art stand in the way of making art. Make bad art earnestly and joyfully. Pour your heart into poorly executed, derivative creations. And maybe it will end up “good” eventually or maybe it won’t, but either way you got to experience the magic of creating.

sometimes I prefer the flat animation to the coloured version #art #animation

critter doodles #art

I use this character to explain my heart, I think I really capture what I was feeling with these to. I can hear my voice in them.

Decided to animate a sketch of Piper ⟡ #art #animation

sharing some of my animations from earlier this year commissions are open for this kind of work - DM me for details!

I am newt having a good time #art #painting

Ooh we can post #gif art now. Enjoy.

I still haven't given her a name 😶 #art #oc

Let’s normalize here that it is okay to take days, weeks or a month to finish an illustration and take your time to make it the best you can! If you wanna post anything but nothing new then recycle your old art you’re still proud of; don’t let it be lost to the void! 🙏

i'm desperate for something, but there's no human word for it

bros i drew a CAT #art

Avoid scrolling during droughts of inspiration or moments of low motivation. Social media will drain your dopamine—and we need dopamine to feel motivated! Instead, try: - walking in nature - exercise or yoga - automatic drawing/writing - sitting in the sun

I’m in the art community every time

I am still saddened that after 4 years on being on twitter, growing my fanbase there, it all went down hill on the platform, I hope to reunite with everyone from that platform here, and I plan to stay, I hope that my work will continue to make you happy, I thank everyone that has came back for me.
