One thing I learnt Christmas 2024 is that I'm so unused to colder temps that my body will shut down if it's colder than 16°. Yesterday I spent the whole day asleep under three different sheets. Like help lmfao

This is also very ambitious on my part bc I fully intend to take a break from digital art after this project is done lol... but the intention is there! I'll prob do sketchbook sketches and digitize them when I'm ready.

Drawing her by herself is not a copout in my book bc I always portray her as desirable/desired. But I don't think she deserves to be portrayed as a perpetual victim to be loved, the way everyone has been doing these days. She deserves happiness and peace too

Idk lots of thoughts but mmm. I'm just one person who rarely creates enough to make a difference, but I wish Allura was actually sat with and viewed through the lens of what we've learnt from her own culture and not through the superficial contexts of the show.

I like the way how the show did it, with integrating pinks into her wardrobe as a way to say she's always honouring her losses, but her main colour isn't soft pink when she's not primarily focused on everyone else's lives. I want her to be free from having to carry that pain all the time

Like idk sometimes I work with Allura in multiple creations and I hate feeling as if I'm the only creator who really sits with the contexts of her culture and colour significance. It's the main reason I never draw her in primary soft pink in my work bc I don't think she should grieve her whole life

I recognize it's picky lol, but I just remembered that VDay is considered by the fandom as her birthday *because* of the colour pink, and I feel like. I can't have been the only one who's thought about Allura seeing VDay as a day of grief bc she's seeing pink everywhere/trying to recontextualize it

My deadline is Feb 10th, latest the 12th bc I don't wanna be painting on Friday the 13th or on Valentine's Day itself. But I'm still making great progress, just need to give myself grace 😊🫶🏾
