Video description: A speed paint of the above image with E.T. by Katy Perry playing in the background.
(I tried my hand at making a 2012-2014 speed paint and I LOVE IT!!!! Also, ignore the heart at the end, I ran out of undo's and I panicked😭)
This is the start of a series (that I'll attempt to keep up with): Ms Paint Rarepairs! For every day of June, I'll make a silly drawing on Ms Paint of a rarepair and post it here! I can't guarantee that every single one of them will have a speed paint though, it takes wayyyyyy too long to process and takes up a considerable amount of space on my computer. I'll probs open requests after I run out of Ideas, so keep an eye out for that!
We can't rewind, we've gone too far
Pictures came and broke your heart
Put the blame on VCR
Holy fuck my eyes need a break after this one. I had fun though !!!!
Marcille let me know that my usual style wasn't going to cut it, and instead I resorted to colour pencils.
A rough sketch, but I enjoyed it. I don't think of myself as good with colour, but it's definitely fun to use. I have a bad habit of making colours look muddy and gross... I have banned myself from using my usual black pen on this, because I know I'll go overboard. I'm very bad at making things look soft with black ink.
Personal life below the cut.
I have a job interview on Tuesday for a receptionist role. Turns out some place kept my resume from 3 months ago, so I guess it's good to know that the hundreds of job applications I sent out aren't just going in the bin. I haven't had a single call or email back for a job since Feb, so it's exciting, but nerve-wracking. After I quit after 3 days at my freight forwarding job, I feel a bit useless. I had a commission from a friend, but obviously that doesn't mean a shiny new career as an artist has begun lol.
I'm not sure that a receptionist job will be the right fit, but I really should give it a shot. People always tell me I'm great at customer service and that I'm charismatic, but it really drains me. Hopefully, a receptionist job will be more emails and waiting around rather than constant face to face customer service. I'm really good at interviewing, but I just can't stop myself from promising too much of myself. I have a bad habit of giving 100% of my energy to a job, which is a great way of being sucked dry and burning out.
I also can't say I'd be good at just sitting around either because I always feel the need to do something if I'm working. I remember working in the bakery and my boss literally volunteering to have me for as many hours as I want and to pretend to look busy because she had an excess of hours to give to employees and refusing because I couldn't handle busywork. I'm sure I can find a balance somehow...
