Eli or Isopod || He/It || 19
Queer little freak. I post and draw whatever I feel like, and if you like it then feel free to stay. Things will get weird. (There will be horror, probably. Maybe gore. Maybe penis.)

Calling this done because if I don't I'll keep fussing with the details forever and it's driving me crazy. 😅

The Odious Snarf - A relatively harmless creature, but smell SO bad that the stink will stay in your nostrils for months afterwards and any clothing it touches is rendered unwearable.

I think its fine to have art content you dont enjoy, approve of or want to see, and establishing a personal boundary is healthy
But as anti-porn and anti-art fascism continues to ramp up i think you need to weigh how publicly calling people freaks, degens, weirdos etc is feeding these attitudes

it feels frivolous and pointless to keep posting about niche art and crafting in the middle of the *gestures wildly* but you know what? I’m doing my thing irl and not online to try and help, and if I don’t keep creating things I will absolutely go insane, so why not share the crafting?

Find joy where you can, show support for people on the margins where you can, and let’s help each other through, that is what I am saying.

I am not a brand. I am not a “content creator.” I am an artist, and I will make and post whatever art I feel like. I refuse to censor myself for the sake of “marketability” or “mass appeal.” I’m a weird little freak, and if other weird little freaks see my stuff I’m happy :]

As an artist, I've learned that the better you are at drawing something, the simpler your line work becomes. You would think that better=more complicated, but from my experience, the opposite is true. Simple descriptive lines are insanely difficult because they have to describe the shape within.

Maybe we aren’t here to maximize our productivity and hack our schedules. Maybe we’re here to make soup, take naps, and hang with friends. Ideally in a hollow tree in a forest meadow.

I wish it was easier for me to take riding lessons 😭
Cost and distance is killing me, I haven’t ridden since like early December and I miss it so bad
