Everyone tries to tell you apathy is cool, but the sooner you learn earnestness is strength not cringe and that all your quirks are what people will fall in love with, the sooner learn how to define your own happiness and find true friends who love youf for you
you have to be sincere and you have to get weird with it

Everything in animation, from the roughest sketch, to the beautiful backgrounds, is done with intention. People pour the tears from their minds eye into each frame, and I can't express how much every part of it is human experience. It is layers upon layers upon layers of choices and interpretations.
Found this on TikTok and it made me emotional ❤️
Artists create universes from nothing.
Being an animator is an intimate understanding of life, environments, physics, what it MEANS to be alive, and the ability to convey the beauty within our world in seconds.

Revisiting old sketches while I have some downtime, and managed to fix this old doodle of @ashworks.bsky.social 's dude Dzan.
I feel like he's maybe become a bit too used to running for his life...

I’ve been on medical leave (I wasn’t okay, I will be) and have been working through a quasi-gothic, 19th century, and high school/university literature reading journey. Teen me and early adult me would never. I’ve always loved gothic themes, but assigned reading was never my strong suit (ADHD).

I've had an uptick in folks asking if there will be a HELLAWEEN 3, and that's dependent on you!
I REALLY WANT TO and have a story ready to go+ my colorist is in... but if publishers aren't going to market, and I can only do so much myself— word of mouth is gold to me! ESPECIALLY while its October!

I cannot emphasize this enough:
The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent.
They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so.
Doomers are not realists.
