I wish this was true for me LOL. Caffeine doesn’t play nice with my ADHD meds so I can’t even have a coke unless it’s decaf 😭😭

On that note, never send money via family & friends – PayPal (and other processors) offer buyer protection and you ARE a buyer, so don’t let anyone guilt trip you into forfeiting that right.

Charging upfront is the artist’s most common security measure against scams, and buyer protection is yours.

He’s a very neurotic, high-strung fella, but he’d be flattered to be considered cute! :>

Ohhh I see, I didn’t know that’s a v2 feature!

I feel that though, I was using photoshop CS5 all the way up until like 2020 lol, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it! Especially when upgrading would mean moving to subscription-based. I’m glad your v1 still works! :)

Oh, in case you ever wanna check how long a piece took you in hours, I think CSP has an option to see the work time for the canvas somewhere! :)

That makes sense, thank you!! :>

I’d love to see more timelapses! I’m trying to move from line drawing to learning more painting, so they’re super helpful!!

How long do these usually take you? :o

The limping and missing toes that many pigeons have are almost always because of stringfoot – they get tangled up in string or human hair on the ground and it tightens.

If you spot loose string lying around, picking that up can help keep their feet safe! 🩶🐦

I had pigeons nest on my balcony a couple months ago, and watching them grow up is the cutest thing 😭😭

one of those babies now lives with a friend of mine as a rescue, because his leggie wasn't growing right, so he had to be taken to the vet for surgery. all worked out and he's thriving now!! 🥹💕

dude teenage pigeons are so cute!! did you know they also go through a voice crack? baby pigeons don't coo like adult ones, they have a high-pitched squeak, so at some point after they fledge their voice will start cracking and they sound incredibly stupid (affectionate)

REAL!!

I ended up having to make it myself (went deep into the settings for one of the default brushes lol) but it’s literally made my entire process SO much more enjoyable

Having a holy grail brush >>>

OH, I just looked it up to make sure, and it turns out I used the word incorrectly LOL. Also not a native speaker here, oops.

What I meant is that bringing this up can come across like I’m just saying this to be condescending to them, but it really is a well-established statistic.

I’m sorry I promise she’ll get it back

Not me realising I forgot her whole-ass tail?? 😭😭

And if you rely on being better than someone else for some characteristic they can’t change (therefore a superiority that no one can take away from you, because you’re born with it), equality suddenly becomes very threatening to your sense of self-worth.
