Almost didn’t manage to draw up anything for pride month, oops! Maybe I should do a pride moth as well (thanks autocorrect)

Didn’t turn out the way I intended, but it doesn’t matter because loons are always a win.

99% watercolor with some colored pencil details that you can’t really see. Gotta get the rust out somehow.

#loon #common loon #Gavia immer #watercolors #traditional art #bird #wings #feathers #rainbow #pride month #the masking fluid fought me like hell #have yet to get it to work exactly how id like #color is hard and so are watercolors

#watercolor #artists on tumblr #illustration #wolf #my collection of watercolor rejects continues to grow but I feel myself starting to understand how this medium works #trying to get over the part of myself that says everything I post must be perfect #I made a lot of mistakes with this one but I really like where it went

I use tumblr for 1 purpose: nevermoor

Yet I've never posted my own nevermoor drawings or anything on here myself. I really want to do that sooo I'm gonna do just that.

I've been posting my nevermoor stuff on Instagram for the past 2 years, so you might recognize me from there.

Anyway, here is my Morrigan/mogtober drawing:

[ID: watercolour of morrigan crow standing, holding her brolly. End ID]

*thank you, @nevermoor-described. I'll try to add ID's myself next time!*

#nevermoor #mogtober #mogtober 2024 #morrigan crow #nevermoor the trials of morrigan crow #wundersmith #hollowpox #i don't know how these tags work so I'm confused #watercolor #watercolour #watercolor painting #watercolour painting #drawing #colored pencil #coloured pencils #nevermoor fanart

I have a disproportionately loud mess of a head for no discernible reason* so it’s kind of a miracle that I spent the last month and some change willing myself to wield watercolor again. Witness the struggle! A long overdue color sketch for a (super patient) client.

Just watercolor with a boop of gouache.

*they are a mush of small but immense problems??? Executive dysfunction being maximized by meds the main culprit…

#watercolors #work in progress #equine #commissioned work #color study #traditional media #traditional art #you wouldn’t believe how much I want to hyperfocus on this piece for a week state #but the burnout and year long hiatus have shaken my confidence to its core #and I was never a confident person to begin with #it’s a horrible feeling and I have had to borrow J’s will to conquer it in any way #I celebrate even the smallest victory these days otherwise I’d burst #can you believe my adhd diagnosis was inconclusive?#no I’m fan but I am getting tired of relying on my brain to punch itself #i need new meds holy shit #there are not enough apologies to make up for how I feel about making everyone wait
