Drawtober post 1, Candlelit Messenger 🕯️ #artistsofbluesky #drawtober #candlelight #spookyseason #drawtober2025

I bitch a lot about dark romance and Reylo and shit but I actually do LOVE enemies-to-lovers, when it’s done right. It’s not about randomly falling for an asshole. It’s about forging an unexpected bond with someone who seems totally unlike you, but you actually have more than you think in common…

The worst thing TLJ did was sugarcoat Kylo Ren’s character. In TFA he was a brutal warrior who killed and tortured without remorse. He was radicalized into violent extremism, a choice he solidified by killing his father. That was all hand-waved away for some stupid romance that made no sense.

A witch for spooky season 🧹I've been mentally in the crisp fall realness of October since September started, even if it's been 85 degrees out #artistsofbluesky #witch #spookyseason #october #illustration

Another sky-inspired piece, this time I was drawing on the colors of the sunrise and sunset ☀️ #artistsofbluesky #illustration #sunrise #sunset #art

Latest DTIYS challenge #artistsofbluesky #drawingchallenge #illustration

HUMAN ARTISTS use only one piece to convince others to follow you! Mine’s probably not as impressive as others lol but I really like how this turned out :D also check out this whole thread there’s some rad stuff in here

I've made some posts lately about the relationship between romantasy and misogyny. Needless to say, the genre has its rough patches—most notably "dark romantasy," where problematic elements like abuse, predatory behavior, and borderline pedophilia run rampant and are frequently romanticized. (1/8)

Today's post is brought to you by my friend @a_humble_humanoid! They dissect romantasy, a popular and often controversial genre. It's a long read, but 100% worth it! marionnorindale.com/2025/07/27/d... #writing #blog #story #romantasy #romance #fantasy #trope #booktok

Another drawing challenge! I tried to blend the pencil sketch with digital painting and I think it turned out pretty cool! #dtiys #artistsofbluesky #jellyfish #drawingchallenge #illustration

There’s nothing like having a dream with epic storyline potential, only to wake up and realize it only makes sense if you’re high or unconscious #writer #writing #author #selfpublish #idea #brainstorming

Another DTIYS challenge! I have a bunch of challenges lined up, I've been meaning to sketch them out so I have a backlog of drawings to render. It's been busy lately but I'm hoping to have time soon lol #artistsofbluesky #DTIYS #drawingchallenge #illustration #art

I got some new art markers and I'm lovin' em. I've started coloring some of my sketches--here's Halle Bailey's Ariel I did last November, I really like how this one came out. #artistsofbluesky #illustration #thelittlemermaid #mermay #noaiart

self affirmation; my work on comics may be a small drop in the world's ocean, but i am making art, and that art brings a precious handful of people joy, and that's already done far more good in the world than any wall street silicon valley private equity stockbroker finance bro ever did.

I think there's a kind of desperate hope built into poetry that one really wants, hopelessly, to save the world. One is trying to say everything that can be said for the things that one loves while there's still time.—W. S. Merwin

A good friend of mine is releasing her first book later this year! I’ve read it and it’s awesome, truly an engaging and refreshing story with lovable characters and great plot twists. Check out her page if you’re interested!

Starscream sketchesssss I’m trying to be less perfect and have more fun with sketching and coloring. Perfectionism has been a very long struggle for me lol #sketch #starscream #transformers #skyfire #skystar #transformersg1

Knowing yourself really helps if you want to write a book. Also undoing society’s conditioning and not forcing it if you’re not feeling it. Seriously don’t torture yourself if you’re not into what you’re writing, there’s probably a reason it’s not clicking!! #writing #writersofbluesky #booksky

The willpower I need to get stuff done at work is spent entirely on plotting out the entire history of mundane facets in my imaginary world #writer #writing #selfpublish #meme #memes #humor #funny #millennial #worldbuilding
