#I was practicing how to draw them for a project

[serenaoffaerun]

I'm making this its own post because I don't want the callouts for using reference material in artwork nonsense on my posts. And I certainly don't want friends dragged into things any more than they already have been.

So I'll just say this on its own in response to a hater post from calla-lilly-flower, whom you should block because they're just a shit-talker:

You know what I find the most funny? You, calla-lilly-flower, seem like EXACTLY the kind of person to make a callout blog. Your arguments are so far out of touch with reality that I truly don't think you realize how childish you sound.

We're going after reference images now?! Then every artist out there is FUCKED. You know who doesn't use references? BAD ARTISTS and 0001% of a talented group. Show me someone today drawing hands or feet and I'll show you someone with a folder on their phone or pc with pictures of hands and feet.

Give me a break.

I have sat and watched Calolily work on many pieces, some practically from start to finish, and they have more talent in one finger than a lot of people will have in their lifetime.

Clearly being an artist (or being a member of what is supposed to be a loving and supportive fan group) is not your calling if you can't grasp some of the basic concepts and shame others for using STANDARD INDUSTRY TOOLS at their disposal. As someone with a background in psychology, I suggest you stop projecting and put your energy into somewhere you can thrive. All this does is ostracize you further, and I'm sure you have skills that could be used as a force for good if you tried.

Let me tell you who IS worth following and supporting:

@calolily

@floweryanarchy

@redmedic

@ayvaines

@lunarwench

There are others, but I just want it made known where I stand and I will support these people with my full chest. They've been nothing but kind and supportive to me and don't have anything to prove to ANYONE. Just fellow goobers out there creating the art and stories they want to see in the world. You'd be blessed to know them and their content.

I came here for the silly haha doodles, but I've stayed for the absolutely blazing commentary in the tags. Your analysis of this story is so so so good! Thanks for all the work and thought you put into this!

I am just a silly little comics blog. I am not hiding anything in the tags, no way. Never.

Yo my beautiful mutual do you want to do an art trade? I would love to, but if you’re not comfortable with it’s fine!

Hello also beautiful mutual!!

I definitely want to but I will have to halt on that request for the time being, I find myself a bit deep in artwork to finish😭

Entirely my own poor planning but regardless, but I will get back to you when I have a chance!! Thank you for offering🤍

Hello!

How are you doing? How is life going? How's the writing going?

🌸🌸🌸🌸

Hi! 💜

I'm currently sick x'D So things could be better? But it's just a regular cold, I think, so it'll hopefully pass relatively soon.

But, before getting sick, I was restoring and painting more windows at our old family house. We've almost done half of them now! JFC it takes a lot of time and effort. Like, there are four of those panes to each window and there are nine windows in total that we need to get done — and that's without counting the HUGE one in the stairwell that's four meters up in the air because, well, stairwell. I have no idea how we're supposed to do that window. And I also have to paint the actual window frames.

I mean, it's worth it in the end because I love this house and it's a part of my family history etc. etc. but goddamn if it isn't incredibly tedious work x'D

As for writing, I, uh, haven't done much. I got A LOT of writing done last month but, as is my habit, I write very intently for a short period, then take a break. So the only writing I've done is the words I've added while editing. Which, then again, came up to a total of 4k this month, I think? But editing has been going pretty slow, too, especially right now since this is what happens whenever I try and my dad's dogs are in the same room:

At least it's the smallest of the three. She's still not quite aware of how big she is and thinks it's fully reasonable for her to climb into my lap like she used to when she was a puppy (it's not).

But at least she's smaller than the other two, fully grown monsters. I mean, try writing with this in your lap:

He's my cuddly little baby and I love him to bits but he's also VERY big.

... and yes, you can bet I shove my entire face into his neck fluff as often as I possibly can.

(And no, they're not wolves — they just look like they could be x'D)

But yeah. Very little actual writing is happening. If I'm less feverish I might give it a try this weekend, though? We'll see! I haven't decided on what story, though. I have so many I want to work on and so little time!

Anyhow. Thank you so much for asking, nonnie! I hope you're doing well! Or at least aren't as sick as I am xD

Take care! 💜

Gonna have to take the time today to do some digital art maintenance. Stuff like downloading old art on deviantart that I lost the original files for, making a Ko-fi again, compiling old pixel art assets I made for DA but are free to use anywhere, stuff like that.

I really think I need to improve my relationship with art and posting it online, and I have a couple of steps in mind.

I tried to build Justin's house/farm in the Sims last night and I regret to announce its mental image in my head breaks the laws of physics and therefore it cannot be visualized
