summer nights callie is so good...

little by little (I may never tire of drawing squids, honestly)

slowly getting through the commission backlog slooooowly

MY BOOOOY

bit late for this now LOL but I was feeling nostalgic... team naughty 4ever

Groundbreaking Discovery: You'll like making art if you make art of what you like

Oh, also, I took up knitting. As a relaxing hobby. *Clear throat* I. Ridiculously Dyscalculic. Took up KNITTING. as a RELAXING. HOBBY

(Trying to work myself up to talking more, like an actual Person) So, I don't have anything to share as far as art goes, at the moment, but like... for what it's worth, my mental and physical health have been improving (or at least are on the cyclical upswing) lately. I mean,

Not to be that person but ADHD is genuinely the most god damn embarrassing condition. Like, being a whole adult and struggling with the very concept of *doing things* is mortifying, no matter how well I understand the reason and mechanisms behind it.

Listen to me. Listen. If you're making images that will only be displayed on screens, YOU HAVE TO LET GO. You can calibrate your screens perfectly, but then 25k people will see it on their shitty $50 monitors or cracked phone and its out of your hands. Don't think of it. Achieve enlightenment.

Driving myself insane with the fact that I'd use this site more if 1) I actually drew at all (lmao. working... on it..) 2) I could make my nsfw account private so I can finally post unhinged shit at like 3 specific freaks and Nobody Else

Inkfish must train like crazy to be doing All That..... inspiring

rip to the characters that have been designed for years but probably won't be seen by other people for more years

It's my nervous breakdown and I can cope how I want

Uoh I forgot this account... should probably update y'all on how things have been going, huh. Maybe it comes as no surprise, but: Bad So, for a brief explanation (this is going to be hard to shorten while also accurately conveying the severity lmao, bear with me please) --

Today I learned I can smell fear

Once again I am distracted not only by my busted-ass brain (off Adderall, long annoying story) but the fact that all my creative energy is being siphoned into another little woollen sweater project. Wish me luck this yarn is thin as thread and a nightmare to work with lmfao

"it's tough out here for a huge brained art genius," i say to myself as i draw a cartoon dog

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

I am ITCHING to start new projects but I don't have time aaaaa Somebody please hold a knife to my throat until I finish my commissions this month. THIS fucking month

Cruel how the holidays are always when I have the most creative energy, but are always when I have the absolute least amount of time!

not art but I don't have a 'main' garbage account -- anyway my family eviscerated me for my birthday

I wish more sites had the tumblr tagging system because no one is ever more honest than when writing the tags of their reblogs, people release their full "dog ravaging their favorite chew toy" energy in those things

Oh, I don't think I posted about it here, so here's a heads-up: I got a job recently! It's part-time, but it's retail, so it'd been getting really busy ahead of the holidays. I have commissions to finish and things I wanna draw, I'm just very thrown off in terms of scheduling +

*vague and mildly distressed gesturing* #art #splatoon

I want to post more here to keep up the activity and all (I'm genuinely finding myself on this site more often than on Twitter, anyway) but I just feel terrible still not having any ART to post rahh

Rediscovering the joy of making art!! #art

I think a ridiculous amount of my issues art-wise could be solved if I just did warm-ups... as is obvious, I just. never do it for some reason. what's something dumb and relatively simple I could do.. aaa.. redraws...?

On that note, do any of yall with OCs ever find yourself writing lore and story beats but your brain doesnt... fully recognize it as such? Like, cognitively, you know youre writing and making decisions, but it *feels* more like youre learning organically about something that exists outside of you?

....And like, additionally, maybe I can ramble about my thoughts on everything a little more freely because I'm an artist! A human being! With thoughts and opinions! Most of them bad and poorly thought-out and over-emotional, but whatever!

This is probably a really silly and airheaded thought, and I'm not going to word it well so take me in good faith here please - but with all the devaluing of artists lately, I kind of feel like... ironically a bit freer to express myself.

Ive been saying I want to share stuff about my OCs more openly for years, literally over a decade, and I still havent really done it. Theres just something really incredibly nauseating about it and I still don't feel any closer to getting over it...

Im not gonna lie, it is REALLY comfortable having such a small amount of followers on an ostensibly more chill site almost.. *too* comfortable... please dont let me embarrass myself LMAO

*Just now realizes I could've tagged things* Aaaa. Blame my years on Twitter for making me automatically think tagging would be pointless :( Ah well. If you want to see my work all neatly organized into tags and categories, there's always my Tumblr (same @)

okay posting all my old oc shit tired me out I'll get back to this later, lol.

Okay. Well. Here's my stupid idiot baby. [Thread]

WAIT THIS WAS SO CUTE WHEN DID I DO THIS I should redo this + add veronika are you kidding

Wait If I keep going at this rate, I'll only have my OC stuff left to post, and then that'll be at the top of my page for god knows how long (hurls from horror) Let me get that out of the way now so I can sandwich it between fanart and commissions l m f a o...... christ

oh this is Old old The concept's there but the composition aint... maybe one day I'll give it another go

I wonder how just many Splatoons I've drawn over the years....

I have more little doodles of myself than I realized, but none that remain as evergreen as this one

Oh this is well out of the norm for me, but a loooooong while back, I doodled up some family recipe cards for my pen pal in Japan as a part of a Christmas gift. Strongly encourage yall to give these a go, if you're able!

I still think we're in DESPERATE need of more Octopuses in Animal Crossing Nintendo you can have this for FREE

Fun facts 1) These are separate emotes and, to my knowledge anyway, weren't meant to be sequential. Funny when side-by-side though 2) I posted this to Twitter with the caption 'WAP' (sound effect) at the same time WAP (Cardi B) was trending. Blew up. Blindsided me

actually this is still pretty accurate for a self-portrait

an old gift doodle I still really like! ( I see you, Id tag you, but I'm unaware if you have a sfw account here LOL )

dat me

sdk;fjjkls I forgot about this hel p

old studies - you ever just try to shop online and get completely distracted by how cute a model is. is that just me (I really need to practice capturing people's likenesses more, it's a big blindspot of mine)
