Art Fight Coming To An End
Posted 3 years agoHey everyone!! Finally Art Fight will be ending soon in a few days! I am pretty much going to be done for now as I've drawn a heep load for this month.
For it being my first time, I will say it was a lot of fun and I'll for sure participate next year! I have a art dump ready and I'll be posting that within the next couple days.
I think it was good for me to do Art Fight. It was great practice with the new style and just relaxing to draw other characters for fun, I even received a few pieces in return! (That much I was shocked about).
My next steps are to do a few more personal art pieces so that I have examples and be able to open up commissions again. I aim for early August, so long as I'm not busy with anything else!

Art Fight Has Started!
Posted 3 years agoArt Fight started yesterday and with the recent uploads of refs, i will be participating this year!
That being said, all of the art fight stuff i do i will be uploading it all to one large art dump file after the event is over (mainly to avoid keeping up with what I'm posting and where)
I will do my best to post regular art here, but keep in mind with Art Fight going on, activity will continue to be a little slow.
To those participating, have fun!!

✨ Feeling Nostalgic ✨ - Favorite Disney Movies
Posted 3 years agoDuring my downtimes with trying to balance art, my job, and yard work at the same time, I want to try communicating more with my watchers.
I'll try to make some general journals here and there, and this journal, I'm feeling nostalgic for classic or somewhat new Disney movies!
Tell me, what is one of your favorite Disney movies and what scene of that movie do you like the most?
I love Lion King always, but to change things up, one of my favorite movies is Tarzan. I love the scene of Tarzan taking Jane and the others to see the gorillas. The first have of the scene is just so adorable and wholesome 🥰

I RETURN!
Posted 3 years agoHello everyone!
I've been rather AFK from this site for a while now ;w; i was mostly posting on Twitter for the time being as multitasking was very difficult to handle, motivation was low, and there was a lot of personal IRL stuff going on with work and medical.
As some of you might have noticed, i mass posted a lot of the art and commissions i did since i was gone, to get my account up to date. With that, I'll be making some other changes to my account here and there to give it a more fresher and nicer touch up!
I'm...probably going to be posting more often here, as i gradually migrate from Twitter back to FA (due to the bullshit going on with Twitter) so you'll be seeing me post a little more occasionally!
What else is new?
I am going to be releasing another set of discount commissions this weekend for Memorial Day (and to build up client traction again). Keep an eye out for that! I won't be taking a huge batch again or having others wait on a queue list again, that just unfortunately drained me out and made it harder to produce commissions quickly. It will be a first come first serve basis, if i feel like it after i finish the first batch, i may open them up again later on.
In addition, after these discount commissions are done, the prices of my commissions will be increasing...
This is something I'm rather nervous about, as I have self confidence issues with how I view my art and how i think others view my art too. In the last few weeks, I've had several friends and even clients come to me and tell me straight out that for what i produce, I'm underselling myself. It's hard for me to admit something like that, but the recent work I'm doing has progressed dramatically.
Compared to what my art was a year ago vs what it is now? There's a big difference and glow up, and i need to learn and accept that it's okay and fair for me to see value in my art. I love what I do and i love the clients I interact with. Everyone has been incredibly generous and it makes doing what i do all the more worth it!
Lastly, I want to talk about my art and the new style change you all might have recently seen.
In case anyone hasn't noticed, the style of my art changed. It's not a style I'm unfamiliar with, it's actually a style I used to do WAAAAY back in my youth (back when I was maybe 12 or 14 so...almost 13 years ago?). It was a style I was fond of and enjoyed doing a lot. So why didn't I continue?
To make it short and simple, bullying. I faced a lot of bullying from particular communities who would baby rage at me for "copying" a style, trying to get attention, it was childish, or even not following the style correctly. Being as young as I was, I took it to heart and tried to find a different style just to avoid the bullying.
I thought about that style a lot recently and the artists i followed, admired, and looked up to heavily, and just in general, really missed drawing those kind of things. So...I pushed myself to go back. I started doing studies since it had been a good several years since I drew in this style. and i hadn't felt joy like this in a long...LONG time.
It still makes me nervous, I can't even bring myself to say the name of the particular style, in fear of getting potential backlash (I mean if you know, you know) but I've been enjoying working on art again, and i want to keep growing with this style.
Sorry for the long winded journal, I wanted to try to catch up with everything, but hope this clears things up!
Be on the look out for more art and more commission announcements! As always, thank you for the continued support! ❤️
