pov:u go into blue pe/riod goin haha i too went to art school n then u come out of the otherside holding ur head at "why did u choose art sen/sei" "i just chose a hell i could live with" and "do you even like art?" and "everybody is telling you about closure and how to move on from grief, but there's nothing wrong with holding that grief forever for the rest of your life" and "if u give it ur all and still fail, you should off urself?" and "does it even matter if your work is popular - isn't it enough for it to resonate with just the one person bc it moved them so deeply-"

#what if i htrew myself off a cliff #these days i try to tell myself art is easy (in the same way that one utuber boe/ing pilot says flying is easy) bc all it boils down to #is communication and language and it is the equivalent of writing and everything falls into place w proper research n pre-planning #all it is a practice of this to create a vehicle of visual storytelling or narration #the technicalities - color; shadows; notan; perspective - it's all grammar and rules and language and then - and then #u have to become a jazz musician u have to sing u have to belt it out with taste and style and punch walls in ways that are meaningful to u #but first u gotta know how to do ur abc's and sentence structures and then you have to have faith in ur own abilities after the fact-#ALSO GOD THE WAY A NAME MAKES EVERYTHING SO INTIMIDATING - I BEEN CONFUSED AF ABT SEEING #'MUNSELL' METHOD CROPPIN UP EVERYWHERE AND ALL IT IS IS JUST THE BREAK DOWN OF COLOR VIA #HUE - CHROMA - VALUE AND IM GOING TO BITE EVERYBODY FOR MAKING IT INTO SOME BIG MONSTER #BC IT AINT SHIT - THIS IS SIMPLY JUST THREE QUALITIES TO A COLOR THAT U USE TO TRIANGULATE THE THING U NEED #i will probably become the dunning-kruger effect w trying to convince myself that i can Do Things but w/e bro be cringe be free #Reclaim The Menu (2023)#i met a self taught artist today who also works at state parks he's living my dream #he was so cool #:skull: bro immediately pinned me down as a painter bc i was squatting down to obsessively stare at his brush strokes n color choices #vs me who will deny that i am a painter/fine artist in any capacity for 5000 yrs #but also artists who squat down to obsessively stare at brush strokes n colors: ur cringe n beware the museums bc the security guards are #going to tell u r going in way too close n u have to leave- (real life anecdote)#i have an unwarranted intensity for being so bad at art lmfao but it makes me happy when ppl look at my things n say #hey this makes me wanna draw too!#u can always rely on me to be ur hype man to go to doodle town

A lil guy !

#honkai star rail #dan heng #genuinely have a million things i wanna draw and then zero energy #so dan heng in a hoodie #now i gotta go get dinner sooooo maybe that will give energy and then i can draw more of what i actually wanna draw #but i kinda spent like ... hours ? talking to my mom earlier today #since shes been in the hospital for many many days #so i was catching her up on whats been goin on and showed her silly lil videos #and telling her how hyped i was for summer hrid and she (very patient with my fe talk)#was like you always tell me about banners being bad so it must have made you REALLY happy to say the whole banner is good #and im like yeah and i had multiple people on multiple sites like hey salmon/moeblob did ya see the banner #and she was like thats so cool that people acknowledge who you like and im like yeah it is p cool #and then i told her how mad i was at the absolutely criminal act of limiting how you can watch clue (1985 hit movie)#like i told her yeah sure i own it twice on dvd and once on itunes and that the only way to watch those #are either desktop or ps2 and how i dont have access to my itunes email #and i dont have it on my laptop so i sadly would have to rebuy the movie on itunes under a new acct #then i said how i loved that it was free to watch with ads on yt and id watched it twice that way #but then recently wanted to watch it on there but laptop and hoo boy you have to buy or rent it now #so i v angrily was like fine whatever ill do the thing and leave my room and go watch it on my moms tv #while she isnt around and use her amazon prime where it should be included except ! IT WASNT!#YOU HAVE TO HAVE PRIME TO BUY OR RENT IT NOW TOO!#HOW ARE THEY DOING THIS AND WHY ! who in the world is watching this movie so much that isnt me that they have to charge for it now #on all platforms unless you straight up pirate it #and hey why would i of all people be needing to pirate a movie i own physically two times and digitally once #this is literally a personalized attack to me #and my mom was like i understand how you feel cause yeah thats really weird to do to a 1985 movie #and im like yes exactly i have morals and principles that make me opposed to this and its v maddening #and she said she understood and its ok next time we are having power issues and i have to shut down #that if i really wanna watch it i can rent it on her amazon account and i looked at her and shes like oh you feel v strongly about this #and i do! I HAVE HAD IT GIFTED TO ME TWICE ! I BOUGHT IT ONCE! WHY DO I HAVE TO RENT IT FOR MORE MONEY!

bill cipher deconstructed, a cosplay

#gravity falls #bill cipher #so i changed my mind and im now entering alexs costume contest #aka im making my SISTER enter the contest for me #i already bought the final pieces for my greed cosplay so i dont wanna change my plans now #but i asked my sister and she agreed to wear whatever i make. she will regret those words.#this is a combination of two of my favorite runway looks and is exceedingly derivative jfkldsa #but hey i aint a fashion designer! it doesnt matter if i steal runway designs bc this aint for a runway!! its for nycc babeyyyy!!!#i cannot take too long on this tho bc i NEEEEEED to get a semi functional version of my ford marionette done #and thats gonna be taking most of my time #so this will be a 2 day project at MOST #ive got it all worked out. worlds most slapdash stolen runway look. i can do this.#i just need to buy the craft supplies and then get to work #maybe i can contract my dad to lacquer and spraypaint the eyeball for me....#my sister is so going to regret agreeing to this lol #unless we win in which case neither of us can regret anything #also i did not draw the pose base. i googled 'fashion design base' and chose one from a tutorial. for claritys sake.#fluffle... something #fluffle art #i guess

hey psst c'mere... no a little closer... a little closer- there we go

Loop lips are part of a racist caricature of Black people. Stop drawing Black characters with loop lips. I don't care how they look in canon, it's racist.

okay that's all you can go

#one piece #usopp #goes for other black characters too but this is the one that comes to mind rn.#not gonna get into other shit like 'lightening their skin to make them look prettier teehee'#or 'but they look better with wavy/straight hair!¡!!' or any of the number of other stuff ive seen #bc like. im not even sure folks can handle this one simple thing lmao #many people are great about this but theres still quite a few who are ass #'um! well the creator did it this way and i like him! and he did it on his white characters too!' dont give a shit.#stop drawing racist caricatures. i like op too but im not riding that guy's dick and twisting myaelf in knots trying to justify all his BS #we can agree he's bad at drawing women and he fumbles how he handles queer characters (sometimes. this is mostly referring to momoiro)#but you can't listen to folks who are constantly saying 'hey this is a racist depiction of black people. please dont draw like that'#like???#im gonna keep it 100 with you guys. i love one piece. its got me through some dark times. ive loved it for a long long time #i dont expect the creator to ever give me the time of day #but english fandom? english fandom i can change. and english fandom i can hold to a BARE MINIMUM standard of 'dont be racist'#and yet i still get disappointed. far more often than i should.#ignorance is one thing but the people who DOUBLE DOWN are the worst #thanks for telling me you prioritize your comfort over not being wildly offensive to me and people like me #idfk where i was going with this im just so goddamn tired #if u wanna know more about what im talking about in the post just look up the wiki for minstrel shows & jim crow

If ur romantic f/o has any siblings, they're ur in law(s) now!!! How do you feel about them? How do they feel about you? What does your f/o think about you guys? Do you hate eachother, or are you friends?

#selfship #selfship community #self shipping #fictional other #selfship imagines #sort of #idk what tags to use aaaa #hope people see this post tho #i really wanna get more integrated into the selfship community cause i just like. reblog stuff #i wanna b friends with people!! if anyone is looking for selfship mutuals hmu #its probably cause i dont make much actual content. i should draw more stuff #but anyway about the actual topic of the post dgfjgkd #this came up for me cause i was thinking about leo and was like hey if hes markus's brother doesnt that make him my brother in law #and i was like :0 #fuck yeah we'd vibe so well together fr!!#im convinced we'd be besties even if i wasnt in love with his brother #we both got that tboy swag ykwim #platonic t4t? is that a thing? idk #but yeah we'd get along great. markus would be happy about it too until we started doing some stupid shit then he'll regret everything #i also have brother in laws on connors end w nines and sixty #honestly. i think realistically id be scared of sixty #he'd torment me i know he would #if i yawned around him he'd stick his finger down my throat #fucking spawn of satan #nines would be very different #i think it might be a bit awkward at first bc. youre sticking two bitches with social anxiety in a room together #one of which barely speaks #but i think eventually we'd get along just fine :D #id prolly enjoy going shopping with them. nines just feels like a good person to shop with #maybe ill make a post for parental in laws too cause i havent thought about hank and carl as much

BOY OH BOY ITS AMAZING PLEASE READ IT! This fic may have come from the same idea as my little prince skk childhood au BUT it's a gem on its own and has its own beautifully crafted world and written characters PLEASE PLEASE READ IT ITS SO SO GOOD!

Everyone say thank you to @uneducated-author for this beautiful work! <3 ToT I love it so so much

#fic rec #bsd #skk #bsd fic #fanfic #also please dont get confused this is a whole new entire work belonging to the writer not me! its beautiful #im just gonna use the same tag as my comics too keep all them in one place hehe #little prince skk au #i cant the fic is so so good i need to draw raaaaaaaaa #on one hand i wanna say the fic is angstier than my comics but #i think i uh. i wanna take that as a challenge #guys i promise the next part is coming soon im just so. busy i hate it here.#cheers to angst wahoo #also set the characters and their roles differently compared to the fic but hey thats the cool thing about two people making different work

🧛‍♂️ What We Do in the Shadows x Adventure Time crossover AU! ⚔

Finn Mertens in place of Guillermo de la Cruz

Marceline Abadeer in place of Nadja of Antipaxos

Bonnibel Bubblegum in place of Laszlo Cravensworth

Jake the dog in place of Colin Robinson

Vampire King in place of Nandor The Relentless

Betty Grof in place of The Guide

The Lich in place of Baron Afanas

Peppermint Butler in place of Wallace the Necromacer

Simon Petrikov in place of Derek

BMO in place of Nadja Doll (her old consciousness uploaded or something was an idea I had)

Marshall Lee & Gary Gumball/Prince in place of Sean & Charmaine

#I want to clarify that I don't have any plans to write this out as some sort of fanfic.#I also don't have any plans to draw actual redesigns for any of these characters.#this is all an indefinite WIP; anyone who wants to make content about the idea please tag me please I'd to see it!#also want to mention that this was somewhat inspired by recent fionna and cake content!#I suppose this AU could take place in the land of Ooo or it could take place on staten island but I was thinking land of Ooo #up to yall though if you wanna sketch any ideas from this lol #I was just trying to find images that somewhat fit the character they're in place of if you're curious as to why I chose the images I did!#also this isn't going with the nandermo stuff to clarify before people are like hey this is gross; no read the tags first; read my rambles!#these aren't 1-to-1 character crossovers; obviously I'd want to take some liberties with each of them if I were to put more effort into it!#vampire bonnie bubblegum would be cool to see! it doesn't need to make sense; we're having fun with it here! Vampire Betty Grof too!#Finn could also be an adult here if y'all want; I wasn't thinking too hard about this; just popped into my head & wanted to jot stuff down!#I'd also be curious to hear what adventure time characters you'd put in the roles of the wwdits ones; replacing mine or ones #that i didn't end up listing! I'd love to see a vampire Simon Petrikov & Finn Mertens though if anyone wants to draw that. anyway thats it!#mine #op #wwdits #what we do in the shadows #adventure time #adventure time fionna and cake #fionna and cake #adventure time spoilers

Every boy king painting is just like: hey guys fo you wanna see the same idea rehashed over and over again?

#and i eat it up every time 🥰#idk ill be like ah i wanna make a new and interesting portrait #and then its just yknow. a portrait.#anyways want to see if i can draw seb w the imperial austrian regalia #i would do the holy roman emperor stuff but hm it is a nightmare #even this im like: catie. why do you want to draw a fuckinf crown. do you know how complicated it is!?!??!?!#its fine ill try and then cry myself to sleep when i realize its too difficulg #also my main takeway from research is that most monarchies have a royal sceptre #so please expect chibi art of seb bonking nando w his sceptre #seb: ah im bored. hey nando wanna play catch w the imperial orb? *doesnt wait for an answer*#my fav characterization of seb in this au is that he is fully aware of fernandos opinion on him #like he knows nando is constantly vigilantly judging him just to prove his own assumptions correct #and seb is like. okay its kinda a forgone conclusion how he feels abt me #so he just constantly acts childish and disrespectful bcs he KNOWS it gets on fernando's nerves so badly #catie.rambling.txt

chat is it weird if i can say that timotainment basically directly led me to drawing and making ocs. does anyone else occasionally obsess over the connections they've made that led them to where they are in life or is that just me

#okay so like. brief rundown because i find it fun yeah #start watching timotainment back when hes making surreal memes -> his content changes over time. starts doing gameplay -> gets gifted a cop #of rhythm heaven fever by a friend -> plays it on stream -> i become obsessed -> end up joining a discord server for it -> most people ther #are artists -> hey i wanna do that too -> start drawing more -> fandom also gets me to finally listen to new music -> i make ocs based off #of the songs i here -> draw them a lot -> now im here baby #and then i can trace back even further like if it werent for a friend of mine at the time introducing me to some other folks then i wouldnt #have started watching tim in the first place etc etc #idunno i find that shit neat #i may not talk to a lot of these people any more but they were all definitely important to me at some point #jem.txt

good lord theres like three different fandoms trying to take up real estate in my mind right now

it's like im in a room full of cats and three of them are just weaving between your legs and meowing for attention, and youre holding a steamy cup of burnout in one hand that your DESPERATELY trying not to spill on them so you only really have one hand available to actually give them attention--

i. i think my chronic online-ness is reaching new heights without the deadlines.
