Feeling a bit foolish starting this project, like I've bitten off more than I can chew. This may be interesting to see how it'll turn out this week.

The worst part about being excited about doing art, is going on a trip and not being able to paint for a few days. Looking forward to starting something new once back home! I'll be streaming traditional painting again this week

Was hoping to call this done tonight, but taking some time to see if I should put in a little more detailing to fix a few things. Really loving working in Acrylic, though!

Another WIP from today - have a bit to fix on their face/upper body, but hoping I can finish this tomorrow. Really having fun getting lost in painting foliage xD

Current WIP - stream starting up now! Making a few adjustments when working today, before starting the next pass picarto.tv/Zephra www.twitch.tv/artbyzephra

Heyyy y'all so I just had to pay nearly $3k in car repairs prepping it for my move halfway across the country next week OTL if y'all could please boost this to help sales before I need to close up shop, I'd really appreciate it ;; 🤍

Progress from today, things are starting to come along nicely! Waiting on orange paint to arrive so I can fix some of Risc's colors. Working on this again tomorrow and Thursday on stream!

Time to start learning traditional work - first pass was done yesterday, more progress made today. Working awhile longer on-stream! picarto.tv/Zephra www.twitch.tv/artbyzephra #furryart #traditional

Headshot sketches done for @soumrak.bsky.social, @mercuryf0x.bsky.social, and @vaporstrikex2.bsky.social, had a lot of fun testing some things out. #furryart #traditional #sketch

Swordtember day 1 - messing around with some designs

This has been sitting in the wip folder for a while. Somethings turned out and some didn’t. Hopefully I can take what I learned and apply to the next piece. Thought I’d post it anyway. #art #dragon

Sketch commission finished for @the-narutoshi.bsky.social! Had so much fun figuring out how to draw Toxtricity #furryart #traditional #sketch

It's honestly fun doing traditional sketches just to see them in person. Going on a trip for a few days, but wanting to do more of these once I'm back home #furryart #traditional #sketches

Arukai design done for @ruadhain.bsky.social! She can summon a black hole for her Signet, pulling from it to shape gravity magic #furryart #traditional #sketch

Had to spend a lot of time cleaning up our apartment since we found black mold in the AC system, but luckily the cleaning went well and back home. May do more sketching later

I need to do more pinup sketches again #furryart #traditional #sketch

Sketches this at the workshop earlier this year, not sure if I shared - they still need a name Having way too much fun making hybrid Arukai designs, going to have to figure out some more uncommon choices #furryart #traditional

Figured out Rjunn's design finally - he's a mixture of Hummingbird and Arukai! May tweak some things here and there #furryart #traditional #sketch

Broad question - are there any tips for art or fundamentals that you struggle with?

Sometimes doing fanart can help a lot when in a bit of an art funk

Wanting to practice more human faces, too

Been having a lot go on with life™ lately, so looking to do some more personal sketching tonight to get back into art. For now, have a quick sketch I did while at the workshop

got inspired to make me a new piece with my marten oc with a bit of a twist in style and figured i'd share x3 really love the way it turned out with the paint and the inking #furry #furryart

Also, for anyone who was hoping to find the recording of the Anatomy of Art panel at Stratosfur, I'm hoping to look it over this week/do some minor editing, then have it posted up soon.

Waiting til tomorrow to share my final workshop piece so I can have the video fully edited. It's gone through a lot of changes, but it's always fun to see where it first started.
