I played around with some watercolor and gouche today. I went in without drawing anything with a pencil, so everything is off when it comes to proportions and perspective, but it was fun.

YEEEEES! EDGY lol

I'm trying to revise the designs of my two favorite OCs... it's not going well lol send help

What are some EXCLUSIVELY ART STREAMERS you recommend following on Twitch and/or YouTube?

Simply gorgeous!

Twitch Twitch is the world

I made a new twitch account for my art streams! Twitch.tv/drowningarrows

I am obliged to say that my bias from StrayKids is Bang Chan.

My niece chose the song for this one, lol. #art #drawing #speedpaint #procreate #procreateart #digitalart #stickers #straykids

I've been working on a few chibi stickers designs. #art #drawing #chibi #stickers #procreate #procreateartist #ipad #digitalart #fyp

I needed this motivation to keep going through this scary time.

I gotta find shipping supplies now and see about finally getting an Etsy... that's what I'm gonna go with for now. Eventually, I want to open my own site.

My prints arrived. They're beautiful 🥹

I did notice a few things in regards to the actual condition of some of the prints, BUT even those prints are sellable (perhaps for a discounted price)

Omg. Having them and seeing my work on them makes me see that my work IS WORTH IT. I'm so proud.

Thank you so much 🥹

My birthday was perfect. Family and my best friend. I'm so grateful.

Talking to friends and family about my dream to have a successful art shop has given me a bit of a boost of confidence.

Omgggggg. Yay! The prints are on their way!

I won't have a ton of variety, but that's okay. I gotta see what works first before going all in. I'm excited because I'm making prints of two never before seen watercolor pieces I did. I'm just really crossing my fingers that the colors translate well on print. Wish me luck!

I ordered my prints! I'm so nervous, I hope I did it right. I hope the colors come out well. I went with a company that seems to be worth the time... for a beginner, at least. Next, im gonna work on stickers. I'm still trying to find a company to print them at that won't break my already broken bank

I think I'm gonna open my online store ASAP and work through the learning process as I create more art and merch for the shop. At the rate im going, I may never open up, and that's just not very demure or mindful of me.

happy new year! I hope you spend it with the people that matter most to you. And if you're alone, I hope everything you set your mind to comes true! Take care. - 💖Fran

If you're like me, you don't have the money to spend almost $300 for what is basically a gaming controller for your shortcuts when drawing digitally. INSTEAD, I recommend you actually get a mini gaming controller for around $20! It works great with CSP on the iPad and Samsung Tabs!

I'm super stuck on the portrait I'm working on. this sucks

Lol, I made a Pintrest.

This just coincides with my feed being filled with hate for realism. It pisses me off, lol.

Having said that, I want to explore a more whimsical style with my paintings. Realism but more surreal. I don't think I can ever step away completely from a more realistic style, but I can add elements of other styles. Idk. I've just been thinking about changing things up with my art.

The hate against realism is not it. Realism has its place in the art world, and not everyone can achieve it. Like other art styles, it deserves respect.

It's not really the style that makes a good art piece it's the message. Realism is just as capable of delivering a message as any other style

Hello, Aki! <3

Filtering my ideas. Like, I feel I've got so many great ideas and so little time that when it comes down to it i rather not draw than have to pick what to draw. It makes no sense.

A thing I'm going to do in 2025 is keep a digital sketchbook. I tend not to really "sketchbook" anything anymore. My ideas are born in my head and only leave it once I decide to start on the final piece. I gotta exercise my drawing muscles, and keeping a digital sketchbook might just help me out 🤓

So, I ordered an IPad Air 2024 and an Apple Pencil Pro... I am not responsible with my money
