At last, beautiful people, I AM ALIVE!!

Life has been tough for these last couple of weeks, but I finally got the time to finish this piece for @chewytran's DTIYS!

Hopefully I won't crawl back under the rock and die (again, lolol), but my schedule is killing me right now, so we'll see. In the meantime - hope you enjoy this little peace offering, hehe :33

hey... hey.. im dropping a new au... haha...

so eyeah! based off the soldier/poet/king song, particularity the trend on tiktok based off of the test!! i got poet when i took it, then had many thoughts... as u can see LMAO

version of nightmare with a crown and without bcs i couldnt decide which one i liked more

close-ups (and lore??) under the cut!!

lore time :3

nightmare's a very... controlling ruler of his kingdom. as he feeds off of negativity, the people of his kingdom must be miserable. his soldiers enforce this rule of negativity however they can.... the people in the village know they cannot publicly show positive emotions

enter the poet.. they're actually a travelling bard! they happen upon this particular kingdom, and thus they don't know the rules of the kingdom... so they start a performance and gain quite the crowd. people are happy and it causes a great big deal. the kingdom's soldiers are sent out to fix this mistake.

cross ends up arresting the poet, and brings them before the king to decide what to do with them. nightmare's like "um... obviously lock them up??? girl fym you dont know what to do with them.."

the poet, obviously not wanting to go to jail for simply being a silly happy lil guy, decides to attempt to strike a deal with the king!

"excuse me, your highness, but i cannot help but notice that you are a very miserable man running a very miserable kingdom. allow me to spark joy and spread whimsey :)"

and despite the king having a miserable kingdom for a reason, he is slightly enthralled by the idea... so, he accepts the poet's suggestion, though, that makes them basically his property

they don't really care because they're free!! (sort of.) and also he's paying them :) and if a king is paying them, then they must be getting a good deal of money right??? right! so they're happy as a clam!

meanwhile cross is standing there like 🧍 because this... this gay ass CREATURE is just... allowed to be happy in the land of misery? just bcs the king finds entertainment from them???? he's kinda salty...

anyway poet decides to flirt w him when theyre not being forced to entertain the king because he's the one who "got them the job" technically??? so they write sonnets and little songs for him to show their appreciation but theyre all lowk flirty cuz they think he's cute and they all fluster him

drawing my fursona with my body type is very therapeutic ngl

[taruruchi]

Idol!Azul except I just redraw different pictures of Stray Kids because I remembered I had the ability to draw whatever I want (Part 1 bc Hyunjin, Seungmin, and I.N couldn't fit here)

Also ngl this is just a product of my two obsessions

close-ups utc!

this is in the order of which i drew first

tbh this was lowkey therapeutic for me so i'll probably do more in the future dslkjflksd

Evan getting ready with his stick bugs, cause they are cool.🐛

Drawing his tattoos was very therapeutic ngl, doodling bugs and patterns is fun

[naumaxia-art]

Progress has been slower this last week ngl. Uni is unfortunately a right bitch sometimes. But I'm still chipping away at this project (Drawing the floaty lil tHatW dress is so therapeutic!)

[wings-of-scarlet-light]

Some self indulgent art to push through the art block + some experimental rendering that I wanted to try out :D Wanted to share the version I liked most, the colors without desaturation, and using the soft light blending effect.

Ngl, the process of shading the drawing was pretty therapeutic in a way. It was that kind of feeling of calm concentration that I’d get when in my painting class back in college. Feeling pretty good with how it turned out ^ ^

voicebanks: nurse robot type t_sugar+number bronze ganga original

yeah that was pretty therapeutic ngl. having fun drawing in ms paint

[attyrocious]

uncle brought over my stack of art school era (2013~) artwork plates thats been gathering dust in my old dorm and i kinda wanna share a few. bear with me almost all of these are abstract shit bc you know...fine arts academia. idk

one of the first plates and single-handedly is to blame for my disdain of drawing straight lines: color mixing chart we have to mix poster color paint for each square and i was poor so i only had the primaries

i had a pretty high grade here iirc but anyway this is so fucking pointless what the fuck am i gonna do with this and now i just hate rulers and ruling pens

---

color theory/scheme plate and im here to announce that yes, turning brain off and adding as much detail as possible has been a decade old technique apparently

principles of design plate?

ngl i still like this one bc look at it

the concept of horror vacui has stayed in my brain and tbf my prof liked it bc it looks like i put effort. i did, technically, but like how i draw now, its just therapeutic to not think and just move hands instead

----

printmaking plates! lino-cut prints, to be exact. many stabbings happened in the making of these. i think the way i do inktobers have been mostly derived from these. and lino-cuts print is something ive been wanting to pursue but its such an expensive and space consuming medium and that makes me sad. anyway,

prompt here is reframing fairy tales into Philippine culture/setting. so hansel and gretel in a sari-sari store

i used OCs for the characters here, and the owner of the' taller boy 'hansel' hasn't been my friend for years now but damnit i still love this concept and she's not ruining this for me

prompt for this one is 'morning'. so here's me in my depression college dorm, booting up for the day. rip to my childhood Buttercup doll, i don't know where you are now

----

last im willing to show is this pest-eaten watercolor landscape painting of UP Lagoon.

look, we had to go out into a mosquito-infested area at 3pm (the start of our watercolor techniques class) and paint this before 5:30 (end of class) but in practice its less than an hour time bc the sun was setting and we can't see shit anymore let alone what color that one flower is.

turned out p good still i think
