Assless chaps! Yaaaas! (I am totally not buying this.... 🙃)

Fans say 'separate the art from the artist,' but that only works when the artist is dead and can't benefit from the publicity and monetary gain. JK Rowling is very much alive, and will benefit from you buying her art in every shape, form, and fashion, and use that benefit to hurt people. Nuff said.

Going through more older work, and surprised I hadn't posted this yet, considering how proud I was and still am of it! A #artcommission piece done for a budding streamer, he still uses this #artwork as his computer background to this day, despite no longer streaming. #FFXIV

I am actually regretting picking art back up right now in hopes of going professional. Going to play some Warframe and cool my brain.

Feeling a little down that I am pretty much starting off less than minimum wage with my pricing VS hours spent, but gotta start somewhere....

I can't stop looking at this! I have invisible disabilities and got told "You're just getting older." I shouldn't have needed a cane to walk in my early 30s! Doctors need to believe women more....

I know it is eventually going to run itself, but doing all of the admin work that goes on behind the scenes to offer commissions and products is pretty complicated. Maybe by the middle of the year everything will be going smoothly. Any advice or tips?

For a while, I've been using my personal Google Tasks to keep track of work flow since I am not provided a personal digital tool for that bu my day job. But I hate that every time I restart my phone I get spammed with work task reminders, even when I'm off. 1/3

Finished a #commission I've been working a long time on. This client was so patient as I used their commission to find my flow again and even try my hand at #comicpage design! Been too long, and excited to get started on the next two commissions! "I Wanna Gamba" #CSP #digital #2D #FFXIV

Q-Tip the Kitten came about from my automatic #drawing I did some time ago. If you look on the bottom of it, you can see him there! I would die for Q-Tip. #ink #marker #traditionalart #sketchbook

GREAT NEWS!!!!! 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

I don't do political art for commissions, but that doesn't mean I won't draw political art on my own. People are welcome to print this post irl. Not for sale, commercial, NFT, digital training use. Don't let them take your kindness.

I think I just finished one of the most outspoken pieces I have ever done.... I will share it tomorrow after letting it sit a minute to see if i want to change anything about it.

I am in love with the textures a #ballpointpen can make! Look at these juicy feathers! Mwah! So in love! I'll share the finished piece soon.

You know it's time to take a break when you not once, not twice, but three times find yourself working on the wrong layer. This piece is just so close to done I can taste it...! But my brain says nah, girl, take yo break. Blegh!

Why is this cat so freakin' cute?! Happy Cat Day, Uni and friends!

I began drawing some rocks in some surf from a YouTube video. The rocks looked good. Surprisingly good! But the surf around them? Brother, ew! I will be looking up tutorials on how to draw water with inks and pencil. The composition is solid, I just couldn't execute it this time.

Very good advice for when you really wanna do a thing, but are afraid. <3

It really needs to be stressed that getting healthy is not a one size fits all. I began trying to eat at a calorie deficit in December, and suffered more extreme bone pain and my nails breaking to the quick from the slightest bump. 1/3

A shot from my #sketchbook, done entirely in #ballpointpen,no pencil/sketch guides. I loved rendering her hair!

Good morning! This is a #questionforartists; is #Instagram worth it to get eyes on your art? Naturally, I would opt up out of the AI training. Or is it like throwing foam Nurf balls at a wall and praying they stick? I tried asking this question on Cara, but got absolutely no feedback.

Tried my hand at automatic #drawing. Pretty much, the idea is that you just draw whatever you're feeling in the moment, and go with the flow. Sadly, mine looks pretty freaking chaotic. But I had a lot of fun!

I finished the base shadows on a commission and am trying to make myself take an art break. I don't want to burn out after surpassing a 10-day creative streak. I know my brain is too tired to refine those shadows right. The patience is done for the day. Maybe playing Warframe will help.

Reposting to make this a little less offensive. I tried Upscrolled, and after viewing only four posts in discover I deleted. I don't want to see images of people being bruyalized or close-ups of highly sexual anatomy. Please avoid!

I did it! I saved my file in the wrong format! I haven't done that in years! I'm still upset I lost an hour of work 🙃

For now, I am done studying ear anatomy. It's definitely changed how I draw them! You really do have to learn the rules before you can start breaking them. I even have a few fantasy theories that came up, such as the Darwin's tuber being a leftover from pointed ears, showing non-human ancestry!

That super cute little snowflake on its little head! Oh my gosh! Not only adorable, but such a lucky shot!

From beginning to end, the #graphite #sketch of Uni the #cat! I forgot I had progress photos.

As artists, we are always told to study #anatomy. But they didn't tell us, is that well structures may be the same, the names may be different! Looks like I have a little bit more than art research to do. #ear #ink #sketchbook

It's #caturday! Have a picture of my little 12 yo queen on her throne where she supervises digital art and gaming.

I have a feeling that some of this anatomy may be mislabeled. I used internet references, and tried to go to medical websites, but some of them listed parts with very different names. I believe I still have my #anatomy book at home. Let's see what happens when I draw from that! #study #drawing #ink

such a lovely thing to think about

There's a snowstorm coming this weekend. Can we go back to these summer BBQ vibes?

My health journey is about getting strong. Strong enough to bike ride, dance, and walk long distances without a cane. Seeing all these "Get this snatched waist for summer!" when I only want moves to repair my pelvic tilt and posture is reigniting my dysmorphia! Maybe that's the point. /gags!

Having some trouble getting my old screen capture software to work. Was going to try to make another speedpaint. I know i could use the in-app software, but I like showing all my zoom ins, zoom outs, flips, rotations, and deletions. I'll try again tomorrow.

Thought I found a nice channel to do some light study into witchcraft history. It's all AI voice narrated.... You can tell because there is no mouth sound, odd infliction on certain words, and no breathing. Witchcraft is about the real and supernatural, not the robotic!

Was working on a commission and... The teenage son is telling me to take a break. He has the whole desk, yet sat right in front of my art screen. So we vibe until he's bored.

Happy new year, all! I am still finalizing my resolutions, but two I want to complete are my "Tired of Heavy" and "Improving Over A Year" projects. 1/4

I don't have a problem, but if anyone wants to buy me merch as a belated Christmas present.... 👼

30 minutes VS 2 hours. I'm a bit out of practice at realism with this much detail, so this drawing from a photo of me holding my dog has been great practice! Done in #ClipStudioPaint with the color pencil brush in black and white, and blend tool. I can't wait to see how far I can take this!

Imagine still using Twitter.

Well, another studio for the ignore pile. These big studios state they have AI do the jobs no one wants to do, like capture clean up or audio editing, but I would KILL to do those things! The truth is these studios don't -want- to pay enough to let us get our feet in the door.

Apparently Paypal is now asking those who commissioned artists through invoices for feedback on the experience, Please never type anything, Its a trap. Just putting both yours and their accounts at risk of bans.

I was planning to check @trueref.bsky.social for a pose reference when this little cutey sabatoged my art time again. I swear, I'm not obsessed! And yes, I like drawing both traditionally and digitally.

Making it public. With a sedentary job (receptionist with occasional art commissions) and sedentary hobbies (art, reading, gaming, music), I realized I need to really bust butt and carve out a time to take care of my body. Why wait for New Years when I have a lifetime? So here we go!

The spark has been a little dim, so I spent time cleaning and organizing my desk so I can include sewing supplies as I learn to use a sewing machine. I can feel it coming back, but sometimes, the emotions overpower that creative zen. Self care and not forcing it is good for art health!

I hate the degradation of spell check. Tried earlier to post about doing a full lunge for the first time in years as I've worked to regain my mobility and it got auto corrected on my phone to lunch! And my dyslexic arse didn't notice. UGH!
