An 18in x 24in gray toned sheet of paper with a sketch of a beaker, on a table in front of a brick wall. Inside the beaker is a paintbrush and pencil, crossed over each other. More of the white table has been colored in. The pencil and paintbrush have started to be colored in. More of the background has been sketched in.

Putting work in on my transparent object still life. I was right, the table is so far the hardest part. My shoulders are tired! 😅

Found this on TikTok and it made me emotional ❤️

Artists create universes from nothing.

Being an animator is an intimate understanding of life, environments, physics, what it MEANS to be alive, and the ability to convey the beauty within our world in seconds.

I stick to a software once I get a good workflow going. It takes me a while to learn new software

Big beasty Ghost had to get her shots and blood drawn yesterday. She took it like a champ!

Anyway I hadn't heard anyone talking about this, so I guess I'm gonna talk about it. Spread the word if you're thinking about doing an nsfw KS project, Stripe apparently might pull your funding at literally any step of the process, with zero warning!

An 18in x 24in gray toned sheet of paper with a sketch of a beaker. There's now a pencil and paintbrush crossed inside of the beaker. A brick wall background has been sketched in. All held in place on a drawing board. The artist has also left their supplies on the easel: A pencil sharpener, a ruler, two types of eraser, and both a white and a black charcoal pencil.

More progress on my transparent object! Going from a dark paper to a light foreground is gonna be some work 😬😤

More sketch and wash with a lil fish! It's kind of trippy to go from drawing to painting on the same piece, but I think it turned out nice.

"What do you think is my biggest strength as a creator?" meme

Yoinked from a moot, but genuinely curious. What do you all think?

A meme image with the prompt "what do you think is my biggest strength as a creator?"

You know what? I'm curious.

Been seeing this going around a bit, might as well.

Since others have said character designs, I'd say your use of lines. You seem to rely on hatching lines, but you vary the weight in a way that still make them appealing to follow around the artwork.

Pay people you like on the internet folks, it’s going to be rough out there

KEEP DRAWING!
