Second day of ZA and find my 3rd shiny pokemon EVER 😍. This gold Magikarp swam out from under a bridge and stared blankly at me while I threw a pokeball. And then we ran around town and smashed enough gems for her to become this beauty! #pokemon

New avatar! (Drawfee channel redid theirs and made me want to). A lil rough around the edges and not the cheeriest thing. But that’s also representative of me right now 😅. I think she came out cute and I enjoyed making it.

Been watching Pipistrello and the Cursed Yo Yo streams and really liking this little bat. For some reason I decided to put him in a gurren lagann-esque title card. Row! Row! Pipistre-llo!

I did some warmup sketches of Porcino from @drawfeeshow.com's #Drawtectives Season 3. I never clear out my sub view window (so many tabs) and for the past few weeks whenever I open clipstudio he's there watching over me. No matter how bad or silly my drawings are, Porcino's in my corner 💜

The new pokemon anime got me remembering that I really enjoy Larry. So this is the excited post-battle fangirl selfie and he's just muttering "why are you like this?" Fun indulgent drawing and I loved it.

5 year memory showed me this (Right), and I decided to do an updated version (Left). The show has finished since then, so I can include things like Globgor's hands supporting her, the wings and antennae of her butterfly form, and a clover shooting star for Meteora. Eclipsa is still my queen. #SVTFOE

ImpSona with a late night burger. I got lost in this one and had so much fun. (Also made a very simplified version of Drawtectives Midnight Alley for the background)

One of the things I’m trying to learn is digital painting (delving into hobbies to keep my head above water- usually I’m all about line work so this is a challenge). I think I’m happy with this as an early attempt 💜

Me: Shows up to therapy super anxious bc my inner world visualization is a mood board of Steven Universe Characters and it’s gonna be silly and embarrassing.

I genuinely enjoy this form of neurodivergence where “communicates with a friend by sharing dress up dolls of our inner state” is a regular thing

Inside you are 3 cups. A wooden faire cup of mulled cider, an oversized coffee mug of homemade soup, and a sparkly sippie cup of sangria. You are coping through holidays as best you can 🙃😅💜

Fanart while I relisten to the Cradle series (currently in “Uncrowned”). The moodiest Zeal I could manage. And, fun story, my mental image of Lindon is Mob from MP100- until the book reminds me that no he’s actually the entire body improvement club rolled into one 😅.

I got myself prettied up for Tv/zoom night with polycule, and it is barely visible on camera so I need someone to see this bc I’m still learning how to style my hair and this cutesy mess is a triumph for me.

Got a super precious video from a friend- tl;dr “I’m so sorry the scarf hat I made it you is too small I [genuinely forgot you weren’t cis] and used smaller measurements I hope you’re not offended.” Girl, my abysmal mental health needed that gender euphoria ty 🥰. And like, I think it’s cute right?

The more I think about the more I realize this late night comic I made really encapsulated the pillars of my internal monologue. “Inwardly crushed by the weight of feels,” “what the fuck do i do w this data,” and “hi love me please oh please love me.”

This is the first holiday I’ve celebrated since I became Jewish (had my ceremony at end of Oct) and it’s been really sweet and happy and I love that I get to participate in this now. (Just feels warm and fuzzy, and also I’m a slut for candles so win-win)
