Submit it NOW! I relate so hard to this but regardless of how it ends up, you will feel so good knowing you actually put your work out there and gave it a try.

Capture this moment and treasure it! It won't happen again for a long time sobs

I think I did pretty well (though the Arcane art style is no joke - even attempting to recreate was such a struggle) and also had fun exploring overlay effects and background composition.

I have been drawing for years but mainly do cartoony flat art as rendering feels like a whole different beast to me. Thought I would finally force myself to put in the time to creating a high render piece.

I knew it!

An artist (Liberal Jane) drawing of a group of people. The person in the middle holds a sign saying “I don’t know how to convince you to care about other people.”

I can’t even look at the news today but this is about where I’m at.

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

Thank you! I'll definitely try and stay concise and not ramble too much

Has the librarian checked out mentally from the complaining to the point they won't tell them to keep quiet?

I have my first interview in 5 years (3rd in my entire life) and I am so terrified. I really don't have enough practice to know what to expect...

Aww yay ty!

Feeling like I need to make an OC so I can try out new art styles without having to also come up with a new character everytime...

I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you 😭

Are the ones you have posted to social media a large majority of the ones you lost? At least if that's the case you can save them back for documenting (though all the layers are gone 😔)

Such cute artwork! Love finding new pixel art pages to follow

Your use of colour is just delightful. Can't wait to see more

Oh My God I am obsessed with your style!
