She/they ✨ versatile artist ✨ all hand drawn, no A/I here!
Finished this watercolor last night, it’s definitely an exploratory piece that got me back into doing larger watercolors. Pleased with how she turned out, though a concept to revisit!

God it’s been so long since I’ve been excited and giddy to get home and draw. I missed this feeling but it’s also great to know it does come back

Artists feel pressured to make new art too quickly at the moment. Normalise artists fucking disappearing for months. Just walk off into the woods for a year and come back with a single sketch. It’s good for you

I was told by a student today that I have a good ASMR voice, but I need to be more chill.

I didn’t even have a response to that.

I think the best part of being an artist is knowing that we have all collectively said "idk what I'm doing tbh" a few times at some point in our journey lol.

Art is so weird. You take these mess of lines and scribbles and they end up looking like something. It’s weird.

Some Chappell Roan studies to bring me back to speed on making sketchbook spreads. It’s been a bit and I love stretching my realism muscles.

Wei Wuxian in his Yiling Laozu era is so disastrously beautiful. I’m weak for tragically gorgeous. #mdzs #weiwuxian #modaozushi

I love cartoons. I love animation. I love artists and art no matter the medium or skill level.

I love human expression and being able to put ones soul into a piece all their own.

Keeps me going.

i like being an artist because i have a lot of stupid ideas. then i can turn them into reality and inflict them on everyone else

The hardest part of being a creative person is trying to decide how to spend my evening. Do I draw 🌈stuff or do I crochet 🌈stuff? Either way it’ll be 🌈.
