Well your studies are sick as hell so I hope wherever you go you keep doing them or something adjacent 🙌🙌

That's such a cool way to explain learning from masters and why it's invaluable!! I always notice a huge jump in available design language after doing a bunch of studying. How long have you been at it for? Also I love the bigger stuff you're doing 🙌🙌🙌 and thanks for the specific recommendations! 😎👹

Fuck yeah I love figure drawing with pen, was this from ref or live? :O

Yoo these are all so fucking cool, where do you get your ref from :O I want to start getting a feel for irezumi. Also feeling the art thing, but take solace in that art is needed in hard times for uplifting spirits 🙌 love seeing your stuff pop up 🧿🧿🧿

This is a mystery bearded iris that I bought at the village fete. No idea on variety, didn't even know what colour it was until it flowered. Cheap way to fill the garden, if you hate the colour you can just give them away.

Like me, bearded irises love getting baked so a sunny spot is a must. 🌱

OK, first one is a cheat because I didn't grow it, but it's also one of my favourites. From my mum's garden in the UK, this is Rosa "Lady of Shalott" bred by David Austin Roses. Going to get a couple of these to go around my front door. I fricking love roses 🌱
