Hello hope you are having a good day or night,I just randomly thought about this but are you self taught or did you have an art teacher?

Why thank you, I hope your day or night has been good as well!

I’m a little bit of both, as my mom learned about portraiture from my grandfather, and passed onto me her love of studying life and watching nature and art documentaries when I showed an interest in drawing. It’s because of her encouragement that I strived to learn and grow in my drawing skills and eventually made the decision to go to art school for my degree.

Of course, I can also attribute the fact that I started drawing at all to those amazing Warriors Cats animations on early Youtube. I learned how to do digital art through watching speed paints :)

#answered asks #my mom loved art books #I used to just sit in her office and read her books about a bunch of different artists and animal anatomies #I also used to draw comics about the stories I made up for my toys

Oh, Hazel, look! The field! It’s covered with blood!’

Fiver is my favorite character in Watership Down, he's just like me fr. I was afraid this wouldn't read especifically as Fiver, but alas... i liked my initial sketch a lot so i kept it as it was.

#my art #digital art #artists on tumblr #watership down #so just to make this absolutely clear.. this is fiver XD not an attempt of a book cover #even tho it looks so much like many watership down covers tbh #i didnt even realize until i was actually googling images for reference that i found a lot of wd covers have a rabbits profile and the fiel #what a bummer #but i still like this a lot #everyone and their moms thought about the same thing i guess #me included #anyway FIVER MY BOY #I LOVE HIM HES JUST LIKE ME #IDK WHY EXACTLY BUT I RELATE TO HIM SO MUCH #its like 'yeah i also have visions of chaos and death and despair its called having anxiety and depression'#ok no forget that

#superwonderbat #dc #dc trinity #not art #my family knows of my love for them obviously #because these three were a Christmas gift from my brother #and for Christmas I got a lunch box ornament with them on it #(the ornament was apparently originally for my brother but I wrap all the gifts - minus my own)#(so when I was wrapping my brothers gifts and saw it I texted my mom like 'hello??? I'm the swb gal?????)#I need to reorganize my book shelf #I have so many books piled on the floor in my room because I don't have enough shelf space #but I also refuse to get rid of the doll house #yes it's an impractical way to store books no I don't care because my dad made it #(hi dad since I know you read the tags lol)

this is a sketch i did for children's day! (5th may in korea so this is from quite a while ago haha) i never had any plans to post this (which is why it's kinda jank lol) but i'm working on something Big™ rn so i thought i'd post this in the meantime!

translation here bc i'm too lazy to edit the image:

jiwon kim (age 1)

cas: you were so chubby lol

gabe: so cute!

mc's mom: isn't my jiwon just the cutest?

jiwon (my mc): moooooooomm!!

#i was looking through an old photo album and it reminded me of that scene in book 1 where mc's mom showed cas and gabe mc's baby photos #so i drew it for children's day this year haha #i love that mc's dynamic with their mom is explored more in book 2!!#the scene with mom in ch11......... man #idk why but it got to me lol #playchoices #choices id #choices immortal desires #immortal desires #choices fanart #fanart #gabe adalhard #cas harlow #mc: jiwon kim #oc: taeri “terri” kim #my art #hydn.jpg

IMAGINE. working at ur stupid uhhh job or whatever. pulling into your drive way and ready to work on some crazy project in your garage. opening the door to the most unfamiliar silence. did your wife and kid leave for something? could you imagine knocking on your kids door, hardly getting an answer, and opening it to find the splattered remains of your wife across his room your child is scared! hes hardly consolable, in a state of shock and terror. you are too, but youre the adult here. you need to take charge. you need to protect him. you need to do something. you need to do something.

Papercraft Sakura! I based her dress on her play costume from the second Cardcaptor Sakura movie. Picking a specific outfit was hard, because all her clothes are so nicely designed - but y’all know me; I’m always excited to use pink. 🌸

Her hair color was also tricky to choose, because it varies so much between adaptations! In the end I skewed more toward the very light brown from the manga and Clear Card anime, but added a few areas of slightly darker brown as a nod to the older series.

This papercraft artwork was part of my holiday sale! It has sold now, but there are a bunch of other papercraft offerings up for grabs. Take a look if you’d like to snag some artwork, my lovelies!

#cardcaptor sakura #sakura kinomoto #CLAMP #papercraft #papercutting #paper art #my art #my copies of the CCS manga give me SUCH JOY every time I see them on my shelf #I specifically wanted the Dark Horse omnibus versions for YEARS but they're hard to find and pretty expensive #so I was getting the collector's editions from Kodansha instead #but. BUT #I don't like those as much!!#the books themselves are gorgeous and the covers are wonderful but the paper doesn't feel great #and I wish there were more color pages #EVERY TIME I read through them I was like these are lovely but I wish they were the other editions #AND THEN #SECONDHAND BOOKSTORE TO THE RESCUE #THE EDITIONS I WANTED BRAND NEW PRICE DECENT #HUGE PINK BRICKS OF BOOKS #I snatched them up and literally called my mom on the drive home to tell her about my purchase I was so excited #this was the same bookstore where I found the entire run of FMA by the way #sometimes they don't have anything of interest but when they do they give me GOLD

Honestly your tags are so fun to read every time, i'm almost more excited for them than the actual post (but not entirely because your art is SO GOOD!!!! i adore it). If you don't mind me asking, what are you studying?

i am studying psychology because i refuse to see a therapist so ill figure out whats wrong with me myself !!!!!!!

#snap chats #WITH. a minor in human resources ☝️ because im evil or something #and whatever character/s i decide to fixate on for the next three years i will also psychoanalyze them I Guess. //loud coughing//#tbh i only saw a therapist to get medicine but since bloodwork is expensive without insurance i dont even do that anymore. sad !#but yeah im a certified rambler if i dont share every thought i have so people understand me as much as i want them to ill die #which is why charles xavier if youre out there you have full rights to my brain .......... //gross wink sound//#why cant telepaths be real itd make my life so much easier. i woudnt have to talk a mile a minute anymore #because i do talk very fast because growing up my mom would cut me off a lot #so now i talk fast in fear of being cut off without all my thoughts being heard. anyways.#thank you for also enjoying my art :] a sideshow to the glory that is my tags i KNOWWW but im glad my efforts are not unnoticed 😌#back to My Major tho when i was in middle school i thought i wanted to go into comic books #but then i thought id lose my love for drawing if i did it professionally so now i do it. semi professionally #on my own terms babyyyy thats right. and if im lucky i get paid to draw my faves im living the dream babes #thats why my text posts take nine years for me to type im legitimately sitting here thinking if i said everything i wanted #and if i worded it right but even then after it's up im like 'but did i word it right tho' but its like 'bro just fucking POST IT'#'ITS NOT THAT DEEP' its as my favorite professor once told me 'youre very paranoid' and he's right !!!! im very paranoid 🥰#ok im done now. see thats why i say Ok Im Done Now its a sign im forcing myself to shut UP #wait not done Almost but not quite i was rewatching 97 to Try to get caps of charles in his combat uniform #and i fear i still cackle at erik telling charles to shut up like PLEAAASSE...... i need that bit CLIPPED #it makes me giggle ... someone remind me to clip all of erik's cameos in the squirrelgirl podcast btw #ive been meaning to do that for weeks but. oops <3 i need all my grandpa's moments CATALOGUED and AT THE READY..#ok i done fr now i have class with my you're-paranoid professor in like an hour and i wanna get some work done before then #BYYYYYEEEE. FOR LIKE TWENTY MINUTES PROBABLY IDK

Me, fondly remembering my playthroughs of FFVII, VIII, IX, X, X-2, and XII: I don't need more blogs I don't need more blogs I don't need more blogs I do --

Though if I did RP as anyone, it'd hands-down be Beatrix from IX.
