booo! I finished the promised halloween post!
I even made it with extra side of depression ;P
One of these days I need to write down all my headcanons about them. Just so I won't forget them (eh, if only I could write fanfics >.<) and it will fun to see how far off I am when the next movie drops.
But anyway to prove I'm not that evil : here is the more fun version
#spiderverse#atsv#across the spiderverse#gabriella o’hara#miguel o'hara#spiderman#spiderman 2099#halloween#please appreciate how consistent I am with my work#muguel is and forever will be a kitty ;P#that learned to love arts and crafts#and also cosplay/costume making#as a natural and mandatory part of parenthood

There's nothing he can't do. Yet.
(Thank you to everyone who participated in the poll!)
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#bonus comic#This whole poll and comic is very inspired by a convo I had with qourmet in one of their art streams.#namely that the Art Of Grilling is a powerful skill separate from cooking.#I've also been inspired by said convo to try and learn how to grill. What's the point of having a garden if I can't grill my summer squash?#Anyways. I hope this appeases the crowd that has been in arms about the prev prev poll.#I don't think teenji can cook. I think lan wangji is just very good at dedicating himself to whatever craft he needs to pick up.#give him a day and he will be a grill dad#the most powerful beast of the summer lawn biome.#Until then he will lie awake at night. Haunted by this inadequacy. He's just like me for real (chronic perfectionist).#I think this is the first domestic wangxian post i've made. God I'm so sorry wangxian fans.#wwx could not care *less* abt lwj having flaws. I think thats the beauty of this relationship. they *know* about each other's flaws FIRST.#Love each people *because* of the flaws - not despite them (thats my unsolicited advice for the day).#also if you noticed my medium gray marker slowly giving out...today it finally died on me....

isat-style n portraits hehe
#pokemon#pokemon black and white#in stars and time#isat#n harmonia#natural harmonia gropius#pokemon n#clai's art#wow i loved playing a new game!! how do i make it about the old game#i won't lie i've been thinking about this since like. starting act 3 lmao#i'm thinking rock/scissors dual craft type? protection/piercing#maybe like. his skills are kind of ''selfish'' focusing on buffing only himself (but they are huge buffs) for massive personal damage#but when you do his friendquest he gets smth like isabeau's omnibuff#i don't have an idea for his role in an isat au or anything but like. he's only just joined the party he needs to learn to work with them#idk in an isat au you'd probably put him in king's place really. freezes unova in time to ensure pkmn are never hurt ever again or smth

caps from comic Im doing
#not art yet. sorta#yeah that's one piece#outing myself this year as a sanji enjoyer#idk what compelled me to come back here (that's a lie I know 100% and it's haterism) but I did finally sit down and put down#this idea I've sat on for a Long time. bc I think I just. finally feel ready for it#or rather. both it and myself have been worn down and moulded enough by just. time passing. to be able to sit with each other in peace#but yeah I'm now neck deep in this (almost halfway thru inking!!) and Im learning a Lot#whatever u say abt one piece oda is a Phenomenal comic artist. one piece art-wise is dense on a level that makes me feel insane#like you barely see more than one type of screentone used and it's mostly to separate planes. its Just Ink. its fucked up#and drawing this comic is forcing me to show up on my a-game on a craft level as well. I love so much a Large part of it so far#comic is good guys. did u guys know that has anyone said this before#but yeah this one will! probably get posted to my main blog when the posting version is done. which is why I said in the prev ask#that the spheres might intersect soon lol#Im aware this is a stupid way to go about it if u look at it from a marketing/advertising angle. but thats not what Im here for#Im showing u cool bugs I made basically. and when the exhibit happens its gonna have mostly nothing to do with this#but yeah. if u see a comic with these caps in it in the future u will Know#otherwise we keep up kayfabe yeah? for fun. for comfort

If I'm honest, the whole "love in every stitch" saying for fiber artists does not apply to me, like. I'm trying to get this fucking hook into stubborn yarn and I'll be stabbing it like it owed me money. Is that love because I hope not 😭💀
#art#crochet#honestly the closest thing i feel to love when crocheting is this feeling that this is bigger than me if that makes sense...#...i think it'sthe feeling of knowing how old the craft itself is and knowing that millions of people have done the same as you...#...millions of people have stabbed their crochet hook into the yarn because it's stubborn but so are you...#...millions of people in the past have sat and devoted their time and effort into all of this...#...millions of people have passed on this knowledge and kept this thing alive...#...and it's the feeling of knowing that humans across millenia aren't THAT different#to our core we are more or less similar - across the ages across the colours across everything. that really comforts and humbles me#have you looked up ancient textiles? because that also sparks these emotions in me#it makes me think about the tupes of people to make the textile but also about who wore it#and so many of them are still beautiful and colourful and it shows you SO MUCH about the people who made them#even the ones that are tattered and faded and stripped of colour still feel beautiful...#...because it has SURVIVED. it is evidence of a people who made it and a people who had technical skills#and THIS is why i HATE HATE HATE the idea that ancient people were just 'dumb' and 'uneducated'#that is so unfair to them and cruel and just. wrong. (and often it reeks of white supremacy)#i'm sorry i rant and rave about this so much but i canNOT be normal about this. i can't be normal about humanity#i am learning to love humanity and learn about us and learn everything and it'll never be enough - i will never know enough#i will never know everything about everybody and it will be the death of me#okay the only thing i liked about the greatest showman movie was Never Enough because that is me thinking about all this

Don't we all love eldritch horror now?
I present to you my current impulsive fixation, a webtoon series that is loosely accurate to the Lovecraftian’s OG lores, Love Crafts Horror !
For the price of subscribing to it, yall get to see this stupid sunshine call center and messenger for free every now and then~
And y'all know what's fun too? There are (so far) 7 handsome horrors in total~! Yes, now they are all your harem members if you wish for them to be too.
And yeah, it's not Lovecraftian if there ain't any Gore and shiiii (This story is not suitable for all audiences, categorized for young adults)
So what are we waiting for? Hit the— (insert shameless advertisement template)
#ily guys who give it a chance thanks byeee muahmuahmuah#it’s not a very well paced comic because yeah I have the energy to publish it but not enough energy to draw a lot of panels and pace it all#but hey; my plan is to at least tell a story with pictures!! So maybe this will let people learn more about CatboX too!#Nyarlathotep#HP Lovecraft#Eldritch Horror#CatboX#Art Shelves#also yeah there are seven main horrors that will appear more often than the other NPC (so far I only have one NPC in mind)#some of them you guys have probably seen them already but the other some are either revised/recreated/redesigned#Love Crafts Horror!

Blood, red like fire
Miriel pricked her finger on the needle. It was more difficult to control her hroa now, when the bounduaries between her and not-her were fuzzy. Her mother had warned her it would be like this.
At least she didn't break or lose the needle. It had been part of a gift from Vaire herself. Miriel smiled, remembering how the Valie --- and not other than the Weaver herself --- complimented her work.
A red drop bloomed on her fingertip, and she put it to her lips, not willing to risk staining any of the threads. The blood was too hot, almost painful to touch. Warmth creeped down her arm too, up her forearm and deep inside her body.
It was a new kind of warmth, not like the soothing, accepting light of Trees or her husband's embrace. Not like steady fire of the hearth even. It was unlike anything she'd known before. Somehow more new than every new thing she'd experienced before, more new even than the shores of Aman when she'd seen them for the first time.
This child would be brilliant.
The realization came suddenly, from within the warmth, and both quickly passed, but she knew. Deep inside her, the fire grew.
--- a few days before ---
Vaire worked in silence. Or, to be more precise, she was silent.
The prisoner talked and talked, without much point, analyzing her tapestry and criticizing most of it. At least he did it in a brilliant prose, at least at times. So much form, so little meaning... But it had a certain poetry to it, and that was why she agreed to keep him company. Still, he was getting tiring.
"Dons't thou think that thou shouldst be reflecting on thine behavior instead of trying to give me advice on what is my calling?"
"I am reflecting indeed." He stretched out hand and the light of her shining fabric danced on his too-long, too-shiny fingernails, like starlight reflested in ice. "But tell me, are my deeds not the very thing that allowed the brilliance in your tapestries to bloom? Had I not freed you of the Lamps, what wouldst thou weave now?"
Did Melkor just compliment the Trees? Maybe he was indeed reflecting. Maybe he simply wanted to make a point. Probably the latter.
He kept talking. "As for this work being thine, do I not have a part in all of your skills? Is there anything I cannot do?"
'Be silent, for example', she thought, but didn't comment.
"Thou hast the perspective wrong again."
Vaire sighed. "Indeed, thou shouldst be reflecting instead."
Melkor actually stopped talking for some time. Was the perspective really wrong? Probably not. But she kept wondering.
"I have reflected on my deeds." he said in a solemn voice. "And it occurred to me that I should do more than that. As I have said, I have a share in all the skills of all the Valar. Let me help thee. I shall make the perspective correct."
"I won't let thee spoil my work," she said. "Make thine own."
He probably offered the 'help' only to show off, but maybe not? Maybe Melkor was indeed trying to be helpful, finally? Anyway what could go wrong with letting him work? At worst he'd waste some of her thread.
---
Vaire narrowed her eyes, trying to find out what was wrong with the perspective in Melkor's tapestry. Something was wrong, definitely. She wouldn't hang it. But at least, he'd worked for some time, and did not complain.
The prisoner's question interrupted her thoughts. "Did Aule made those needles? they seem too beautiful to be his work," he said, giving Vaire's tools back to her.
"I shall not let thee talk badly about Aule."
"As you will, o lady of this prison. But heed my advice: keep those needles to thyself, as I do not believe that anyone would be able to replace them in case someone was to steal them. Not even I."
Even without the fake humility at the end, the attempt to make her possesive was just too obvious.
Vaire smiled. She'd give all of her best needles as gifts to the Eldar. No, to one Elda. Miriel definitely deserved it.
But Melkor did not have to know. She would him think he'd won this tiny battle.
The dark Vala smiled too.
#tw blood#a little but descriptive#ficlet?#i think it's a ficlet#miriel serinde#miriel therinde#implied Feanor#melkor#vaire#attempt at thou/you distinction#the Valar canonically “thou” each other#a little bit of a fairytale reference?#don't try to outthink Melkor#it doesn't work#arts and crafts#silmarillion#tolkien legendarium#tolkien#silm#the silm#random#the silmarillion#feanor#pitiful attempt on older-sounding English :(#(I'd love any CC on the language tbh)#(I wish I learned how to do all that old-sounding stuff properly)#(grammar is easier (thee) but the style is too difficult)#tw pregnancy

seeing just how seriously the andrastian and chantry lore is taken by the writers makes me pissed off that bioware not only dismissed the dalish at every turn but that it also did away completely with their religion
#like. i forgot just how interesting the roles of right and left hand of the divine are. how cool some of the andraste stories are#and her iconography and etc etc#and we could've gotten so much interesting stuff with the dalish. like learning more abt the arlathvhen#or how the high keepers of the dales became that and what their roles were and how they worked together#did the elgar'nan keeper have some kind of final say in religious stuff or were all the high keepers equal?? what abt the iconography creat#during this time?? the written works the murals the statues????#what abt other stories abt the elven gods?? obviously a lot of it was lost after the fall of arlathan#but more of it must've been saved than just. the same vague concepts of ''june taught the elves the art of the craft'' and whatever else#it would've also been so interesting to get to know how the elves and their religion got to coexist together#when they were not scattered nomadic people. did they make temples to every single god?? was there a temple for all of them with maybe a#statue or some other division?? were vallaslin ceremonies grander events??#did the high keepers get a say in who received their vallaslin and who didn't?? did they have the same criteria for being eligible for one?#sigh. idk i just love the dalish so much and it's really sad and. kind of insulting that we're never going to get a serious answer#or some serious worldbuilding abt the elven gods the dalish the dales etc

a great way to combat genAI in the future would be educating kids (and teens and college students and all ppl) on art way more.
#i had art classes growing up but i know a lot of ppl didn't and even less kids get art classes nowadays#we need all kinds of art classes too! music and history and painting and woodshop and drawing and life drawing#i think art history is especially important bc it connects us to our past and shows why art is so important#and all kinds of art classes help kids develop different important skills#like fine motor skills and critical thinking and making choices and noticing details and how to really SEE things rather than just looking#and a lot of art skills like woodworking and ceramics and sewing are all very practical basic adult skills that we should all get to learn#there's reasons arts and crafts and other skill based electives are the first to go and its not just bc they're undervalued#its cause a population that feels capable and confident and skilled and knows how to think critically#is harder to make work shitty jobs for shitty pay#harder to control!#same reason they're banning so many books and trying to make education worse#damn maybe i should learn how to teach better#im already planning to at least try doing a workshop for adults but maybe if i end up liking that#i could work towards being able to teach kids#i feel like teaching kids would be harder cause idk what concepts they do or dont know at whatever age they are#id have to do research and maybe talk to someone who has experience teaching art to kids#but even a simple art class would be beneficial i think#like going outside to draw things in nature maybe#or portrait drawing#or a class on how to make comics or animate on paper to impress their friends lol#i would've loved that!#id have to do that with the help of another teacher maybe#idk#vague future plans#anyway the reason education would help combat ai is cause ppl would learn abt what goes onto making art#all the choices and skills and thought#and they'd be able to more easily see the difference btwn real art and ai images and understand why making art is important

Today I arranged for 3 hours at afternoon tea time to reunite with my old friends, she invited me chatting with her. I adore her and I think still have something could learn from her. This beautiful and capable woman is younger than me and really very capable and smart. We're same divorced, when our children were little, and then we learned to do business together. She has some business contacts in Thailand. She once took me to Thailand for our stores businesses. Buying and stocking goods, we have many stories and experiences of our struggles to make money to support our children.
You know that She's successful and joyful now, She works for a religious team, Yiguandao ( I-Kuan Tao ) in Taiwan is building a large monastery, and she is one of the most powerful heroines raising funds from people which all walks of life around the world, her team can reach NT$ 200 million to help complete their tasks in each year.
God bless them. 🍀 Amen.
🙏 Lan~*

I have crawled out of my "only doing art studies pit" to craft a piece so full of love, and I shall now post that piece before once again disappearing to cry over anatomy
#simon says#i shit you not I dont think I've loved a piece so much before#it's like#i hand crafted this piece out of love for myself and no one else and it brings me such joy#and it's gonna be weird as fuck#i shit you not you're gonna think im joking after I do the alt text and post this one#you're gonna think 'haha what a funny joke they made' NO#this is SERIOUS#I made this piece with every single bone in my body and every ounce of love I possess to make myself happy#in the span of two days#forcing myself out of my comfort zone multiple times in the process#and learning so much#and I guarantee people will think it is a joke and that all of this is ironic#it is not#none of what my next post will be is ironic#i am just putting that out there now#i know as an artist one will interpret my art in their own unique way based off their experiences#and I have no control over that#nor do I want to#but I do want to put my own personal intentions loud and clear here#the meaning of the piece is very personal and I shant share it lest it ruin the viewer's experience with it#but I do want to make it clear that none of this is going to be ironic

Figured it might be fun to tease what I'm currently working on at the moment with materials I have already at my disposal. I decided to make a fan plush of Barnaby B. Beagle from Welcome Home for a challenge since I never really attempted something with a bowler hat before. For a first time hat making, I think I did pretty well on that part. Next up will be making Barnaby himself since the vest is gonna take a bit of time to figure out how to tackle.
#Art#My art#Fan Art#Fan Plush#Welcome Home#WIP#Clothing#Accessories#Seriously it was an adventure learning how to make the bowl part of the bowler hat#Barnaby B. Beagle#Sewing#Craft#Why they have ribbons on is because velcro is a nightmare to hand sew on and I love making plush dolls that can have clothing changes#Plush doll#Plush

I am now technically on cara by the way, nothing there tho yet, and, god, the servers are really very slow right now. But it's super cute! Ill post my profile here when I get my art set up there. Might be a good place to easily see my art? (I'm not thoroughly fond of my art gallery tumblr blog (bardfolio, not this one), it just doesn't work well...)
Hopefully the servers pick up speed, and I beg for a light mode. lmao. Will keep you all up to speed. :)
#Bardicious#cara#I like the part where ai is not welcome there lmao#I mean ai truly really clogs up all art galleries - i fucking hate it#its one thing to draw your own picture that might be amateurish#that shows your love for it and willingness to learn a craft or even just be part of it in a way#but ai is mostly just spam - even disregarding the legal issues#it looks generic and requires minimal effort#maybe meme worthy - but definitely not art worthy
