Doing master studies the only way I know how: Stealing them and making them my guys.
(Barberini Faun)
(The Fallen Angel - Alexandre Cabanel)
(Covent Garden - William Bruce Ellis Rankin)
#obviously. not actually theft...#i was gonna say these are public domain but covent garden actually isnt yet#it will be. in two years.#thats the most different one though like i added a whole new guy..#maybe not the most different. barberini faun is pretty different i just took the post#pose#its barely even a study. thats not true#but. what was i saying.#oh its not theft it's study... the purpose is to learn!!! but also. if im gonna spend like 2 days on something...#its GONNA be my guys#otherwise. idk. i only want to spend 30 or so minutes per study#just to get the notes down and the practice for the skill im working on#i dont get all that much more out of completely rendering a master study. PERSONALLY.#at least definitely not enough to be worth taking 100x longer#but making them my characters makes it worth going all the way!!!#plus it's good practice w like. not just going 1:1 but actually genuinely interpreting whats there so i can manipulate it...#again. personally. this is just how i worm#WORK#youd better worm bitch#uhm... anyways yeah. ive done lots of study but why TF share it LMAO i dont even save it#its just to learn. ive got 1 million other drawings to save and look at later.#once the learning is done it's done its job and i have no need anymore#this is why the only studies i have are from school. i had to save and upload them#well. ok also i dont study as much now BUT in my defense im a full time artist#an hour or so a week is different ok im learning while working too.. i learned how to learn and i do it all the time now#master studies#digital art#my art#illustration#my ocs

This is my final for one of my graphic design interactive media class...LMAO I would have liked to do more but I was going over the time limit. One of these days maybe I'll be able to expand upon this + improve the black sabbath scene + etc.
#me art#devilman#ryo asuka#akira fudo#ryokira#we were given less than two weeks to work on this... on top of a bunch of other projects expected to be completed#a lot of my peers I saw were doing simply just lyric videos and having fun with like transformations in adobe after effects#which in retrospect is probably a better idea than what I did which is. as you can see. hand drawing every panel for like 2 minutes worth#of content. I hope I will be able to have energy to pull through and finish this term.... after everything I've been having to deal with#I really hope this will not be my last graphic design class :')

Quick question about a quick quilt...
I can finish a lap size rag quilt in less than a week, twin size in about a week, queen size in two weeks. It's three layers of fabric, quilt-as-you-go, minimal piecing, and they are heavy. Excellent for cold weather and folks who like the weight of blankets but not weighted blankets.* These quilts aren't as hot as layers of fabric plus beads/pellets, and they breathe much more effectively. For a heavier rag quilt, it's a layer of denim and two layers of quilting cotton or flannel. I have a rag quilt for myself that's three layers of quilting cotton. My house is drafty and winters are full of rain, which means the cold sinks into your bones with the humidity. My husband keeps stealing my quilt because his man-cave is the coldest room in the house. He doesn't care that it's very feminine colors "because it's warm."
As for why it's called a rag quilt, here's a sample:
The top is the fluffy side with the exposed seams. Instead of a quarter inch seam allowance the seams under the fabric, it's a one inch seam allowance and the seams are exposed. Said seams are then cut at one inch intervals. With every washing, the seams get fuzzier and softer. They're fun to touch and feel really nice. It's also why these must be dried ALONE or all the strings will end up on whatever else is in the dryer. Three layers of fabric also means two rounds in the dryer on high heat (which is why I like using flannel rather than quilting cotton) or one round of high heat and hanging to dry for a couple hours.
The back looks like a more traditional quilt top and is often the side with denim on it if denim is used. The one is three layers of flannel and was a giveaway prize earlier this year, to celebrate meeting a ko-fi goal.
These are a delight to make and excellent for cold winters and drafty homes. Did I mention they're pretty heavy? The one I have, once all folded up, weighs about six pounds, and knocks my husband out within about ten minutes of him laying over himself. It's why I plan on making a rag quilt for him. He keeps stealing mine.
For context regarding prices, these take significantly less time to make. This one, a lap size, took just 14.5 hours, and that included the quilting. A traditional style baby quilt starts at $2125 because I have a lot more cutting and sewing, and I do the quilting by hand (though it will soon change due to soon having a machine I can use on my Cutie frame and do all my quilting on it), and can take 70-80 hours start to finish. I charge $27/hour + cost of materials to come to the final price.
*A PT I know hates weighted blankets because they cause a lot of injuries. People rolling in bed with a weighted blanket on them have ended up in physical therapy because of soft tissue tears. Most especially dangerous for people with EDS and other connective tissue conditions. Other injuries they've seen are from the pockets with the beads/pellets in them tearing open. Pets and small children have been known to choke on those, and folks who are heavy sleepers can also be injured if the pockets near their face tear in their sleep. When the beads/pellets get all over the floor, people fall and end up with serious injuries from that. Not to mention overheating under all of them because the material doesn't breathe well.
#quilt#sewing#handmade#artists on tumblr#commissions open#I need to pay off Cacoa's vet bills (totaling $1400) ASAP so I can hire a plumber before the wet season arrives. Then I can focus on paying#off one of our other debts that will start collecting interest in May 2025. Once those are paid off I can justify purchasing an#XBox Series X for myself and one for my husband. Dragon Age The Veilguard releases on Halloween. I have been looking forward to this#game for ten years. Dragon Age saved my life. When I was at my lowest I would remind myself I cannot play the next game if I'm dead.#I know it's unlikely I'll achieve the goal before Halloween and will just end up watching people play the game on Twitch. A girl can dream#though and this will be mine: pay off enough debt to afford the luxury of having a new console and new game.#Honestly? I have more than earned a long break after all the nearly non-stop quilt making I've done this year. A break is something I very#much need and want but cannot take until I receive at least $3k to cover the cost of Cacoa's bills the plumber and the debt.#I have over $8k worth of merchandise in my shop. Original paintings (two would cover Cacoa's bills the plumber and some of the other#debt) as well as quilts starting at coaster size and going up from there. New work will be added pretty much every week until my#new machine arrives and I begin practicing free motion quilting on it. The practice quilts will be sold at a steep discount and then I'll#really get into finishing quilts on the Cutie frame. The prices for all the quilts I would other finish by hand will drop because I can#get them done much more quickly. the larger quilts will be on the commission menu next year. after lots of practice first.

Number of stories I would like to write: Many.
Number of stories I find myself able to write: Zero.
#adventures in writing#i've got less than a week to write a four loves story#(i want to have one done by valentine's day)#i have multiple stories that have been battering my imagination#i've been home sick and so have time to write#and i get in front of the computer and the energy is gone#everything i write takes so *long*#i got a semi-decent opening to the cinderella story but there's no way i could write anything worth showing in time#i tried a beauty and the beast short piece but the tone isn't coming together#i would like to try the goose girl but there's a key plot point that's shaky#i should just finish up the 12DP#whether or not part two works for people#our good friend sunk cost fallacy is telling me i should just go through with it as the story with minimal work requirement#but i'd also like to write something *else* you know?#too many grandiose ideas not enough words#same song different day

Sometimes you just sit in a room while Kate reads to you
#listen my entire paycheck from my two-week working stint went towards this trip#yes I had a job I quit after two weeks I am a hot mess#I doubt she'll come back next year so it was a rare opportunity and I jumped on it#I'm financially irresponsible but it was worth it#was teetering on overstimulated too#I have videos from this but#there were a couple points where she got emotional and it was very moving#still just want to gush about it but now I'm all alone again#seems like she's looking directly into my soul in that first pic#I'll always have the memory of her touching me 3 separate times I cryyy

Every time Prapai gives Sky medicine, he's narcoleptic inside 5 minutes.
#fun story: in 2018 we went to interview ex-president jimmy carter#and I had a bit of an odd feeling in my throat#august 24 2018 i remember that date well#because that was the first signs of an illness that annihilated me#i blacked out for most of the month of september- i only have very sparse memories#i had a strange kind of pneumonia the doctor hadn't seen before#and over those 6-7 months they threw every single anti-anything they could at me#IDK if I slept so well because of the knockout effects of all the antibiotics and antivirals#or because I had a recurring fever and a chronic brutal cough for 6-7 months and was terribly weak by the end#but i was sleeping so deeply the more pills they added#and now i know i can function with a 102 fever on and off for months on end#everyone- family and coworkers- also made fun of me for insisting on wearing a mask but guess what bitches#when the pandemic rolled around i still had 2 unopened boxes from being sick a year before and those were worth more than toilet paper#lita#love in the air#prapai#sky#prapaisky#true facts: I don't remember writing one of my own fics#it was during the blackout month and i refuse to read it because i think it's funnier that i don't know what it's about#i also had to work- it was one of our biggest events that we do every 4 years#two weeks straight of 14 hour days with no weekends#and i was there every single day#i have no memory whatsoever and when we did the event again in 2022 the organizers kept saying 'oh wow you're alive!'#i like to say i had the BEST time because it's a tedious af event and everyone is surly by the end#but from MY pov i was trapped in dense fog and couldn't breathe; trapped in that twilight feeling when you're neither awake nor unconscious#and then when it passed I had a nice paycheck in my account without any of the mental strain of working for it

Here’s a frog cup I recently finished as a commission for a pal of mine! I love everything about this one soooo much!
#ceramic art#my art#ceramics#frogs#Augh— SO much work went into putting on all those little warts! But it was definitely worth it- I LOVE the texture of this peice.#Tip for sculptors in a hurry= A heat gun and a pottery wheel can save your butt when you’ve gotta dry stuff evenly but don’t have two weeks#The person I’m making this for has been so cool and sweet to me through the whole process#They squealed when they saw it in person! We both gushed over it forever#It’s got a little mushroom lid too! It’s not pictured here though#It was my first ever too— And I’m real proud of it!

P. Mondrian High School is under construction!
Yeah so I caught a second wind and decided to take advantage of it. I'm sorry for jumping the gun on the poll results, but after some thinking I'm most attracted to the 50s modernism style. It's going to be plenty modern though, so not to worry there for those who preferred the other shell! This def will set me back a bit, but that's okay. A family gameplay centered save wouldn't feel right without a high school to me.
#the way i gave myself two more weeks of work lol#it will be worth it i love building schools#build wip#build progress#sims 4#ts4#ts4 simblr#sims community#simblr#ts4 build#sims build#sims save file#sims hsy#high school years

i keep anxiously swallowing air and hurting my stomach
#im almost finished the dissertation#just two weeks#two weeks of hard work left#and then i can progress to the next phase#work experience#driving license#and an extra class in data analysis#having long term goals is really grounding and it feels great to fulfill them#my plan is attainable but it requires hard work#and after the hard work i will have earned a comfortable and stable life#which is something rare and thought by many to be extinct#im very lucky to have this path#and im privileged to be able enough to do it#it all feels within reach#but that doesnt mean that it isnt extremely hard#and makes me feel ill#but at the end i will have a qualification which will make me in demand for a well paying career#whos pay scales are good enough that the starting salary will be enough to make it possible for me to own a place to live#a small one but still#and i have to keep thinking about that while its hard#while i have no time and no money#while im tired all the time#while i feel sick and swallow big gulps of air#because in five years from now i will be fully qualified and starting the career#and in eight years from now i will be able to work wherever i want in the country#and if i have to sacrifice all the other parts of my life to get there then itll be worth it#even if everything else suffers a little bit
