It doesn't matter if others are 'ahead' of me in art.
All that matters is my own place and my own journey.
Stop trying to compete when it's not a competition.
I can't always control my situation but I can work with what I have.

I miss making art so much. It's like a part of myself is missing. I need to get past whatever mental blocks are stopping me from doing it. It's been years of burnout with no end in sight so I think I just have to draw regardless of how it feels to do so

Many full time creatives have “invisible safety nets” like bread-winning partners, trust funds, external support, etc. No shame on anyone, but it creates a false vision of success. The cost of going to cons alone on top of hoping to eat as a freelancer are untenable, IMO.
When people hear that I'm returning to part time work they often ask "are things not going well with your art?"
The problem really is things are going well, but the world is so unstable that I long for some consistency and income that I don't have to pay quarterly taxes on

Very happy with how my witch hat came out! I started with just a plain hat and sewed on the ribbons. The pentagram started out as just a twig wreath from the craft store, and I added twine to it to create the star shape. ✨️🧙🏻♀️🧹🪻

That tiny waist kind of freaked me out. If a creature designer came up with this form, they'd be made fun of for its unrealistic nature!

Do you ever have those times where it seems like every attempt to connect with people, like friends or acquaintances, just falls flat? And you're left wondering if it's something you said, or if you're just annoying, or if it's simply not a good time for the other person...

I am quite frankly desperate to make ends meet this month. We are $900 short on rent alone despite everything, and could really use any help we can get. I'm taking autumn YCH commissions and accepting any other help I can get to make sure the check clear in just a few days here.

You've been at a job long enough to know a decent colleague to chat with.
The more you get to know them, the more they share. What's fact or fiction? You don't know, but you listen.
Then there's one story that's so over the top—a bona fide lie. But then, a photo appears.

Pai-Lung was the only white Dragon King, believed to be connected to supernatural forces that gave him control over storms and drought.

I've been having fun recently getting into rock painting, now that I have some cheap acrylic paint pens at my disposal (party leftovers!). There's a local rock hunt group where people hide and search for painted rocks. Haven't hid this particular guy yet... a bit too attached still!

Happy Autumn Equinox! For myself, I've started what I'm calling 'Unplugged Autumn'. I uninstalled FB and Reddit from my phone, and set app timers on other time-sucking apps. I intend to stick to my goal of <2hrs of phone time per day. I let that lapse in recent weeks, but it's time to Touch Grass.
