One character, Hashi, has eyes stitched shut in an H-formation; the other character, Rix, has eyes stitched in an X-formation. Hashi wears a gothic long coat. Rix wears a ruffle blouse and swallowtail vest. Bright yellow background with faded smiley face that also has stitched eyes.
My Pinterest board is full of ouji fashion after drawing these slug people. Now I want ouji clothes. Life imitates art.

Thankfully, I donโt feel this way about stylized art anymore. I wasn't able to articulate it before, but there is a lot of skill that goes into stylized art: posing, perspective, exaggeration, composition, lighting, colour, silhouette, etc. I want to get better at drawing dynamic shapes!

If I told my younger self I was going to try using screentones, my reaction wouldโve been, โWTF, NO.โ My initial aversion to stylized art came from the stigma against cartoons; I felt like I had to draw realistically to be taken seriously.

Sketch of a grinning man with snake eyes pulling a piece of intestine through his mouth. Four snakes come out of his back, and one is perched on his shoulder.
I like how the shapes were chunkier in the #sketch vs the final version. ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฅ๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ต๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐น๐ต ๐ต๐ช๐ฎ๐ฆ

Things I should be doing to make myself a more employable concept artist:
Environment and prop concepts
Turnarounds
Learn 3D
What I actually have energy to draw after a day at work:
Monsters ๐
