Im Actually Crying Oml - Tumblr Posts

Hi, um, I just wanted to say that I saw a gif you made of zombiecleo, and it made me tear up because it was the first time I had ever seen a drawing of a girl with my body type where people were saying they looked attractive. And I know I don't know you but I wanted to thank you for making the type of art that let me know people think I'm beautiful, since I struggle a lot with my appearance. You're a great artist

Oh my goodness, thank you so much !!!

I cannot truly explain just how much this means to me!! All I’ve ever wanted to do with my art is make people recognise themselves and feel attractive, desirable, and most of all, seen.

A big part of this aspiration is from my own experiences, as other artists’ portrayal of bodies like mine was part of what has made me comfortable in my own skin and confident in my self-perception, so I am beyond happy that my own art has done that for someone else!! It’s particularly lovely to hear this, anon, because that animation was rotoscoped off of my body/acting, so knowing that my depiction of my own body has made someone else feel recognised is so amazing to hear as an artist and, simply, as a person.

All this to say thank you so so so much, you gorgeous anon <333
