I retreated from the world for a bit to focus on therapy against OCD

Reemerging now that I’ve made a fair amount of progress. That, and because sharing my thoughts and self online is itself a form of exposure for me

anyway, here’s a drawing I did of a cute little Roadrunner :)

fun study of an iconic band of brothers scene

i really need to practice effects lol

another round of blender learning progress :)

what a glow up

operation smoothie is officially launched. first steps in learning blender by making the world's blockiest little dude

a few clothed figure sketches from this week. sometimes I set out with a direct intention, things to focus on. other times I discover the intention as I go… here I sorta stumbled into a play between curves and straights

all from @trueref.bsky.social reference packs. best Patreon sub I have :)

Finished Echopraxia by Peter Watts. The first book in the series, Blindsight, is my favorite science fiction novel (and the inspiration for this account’s name). I didn’t find this follow-up as engrossing as the first and its exploration of consciousness’ utility. Echopraxia did end strong, though.

torso and leg studies. Prepping for a new course starting tomorrow, Dynamic Figure Advanced with Peter Han. I took Dynamic Figure with him a few years ago; really excited to push myself further in this next course :)
