Just got my nails done!

Paintin in my sketchbook the other day 🧍

I was gonna paint the hair better but ehhh I got bored I mostly wanted to paint the flowers 🌸 and the face :)

I was inspired by some art nouveau pieces I saw the other day, and i wanted to capture the sort of mood I found within those artworks. I was especially captivated by how the artists illustrated their subjects’ hair— it has a lot of movement, and it’s very distinctive of art nouveau style.

This painting I did isn’t really faithfully art nouveau, but you can see how I was inspired by it!

tumblr has an AI toggle you should turn on to prevent your work being shared with training models/etc! it's under settings & visibility.

One of my best works. Truly a piece of art. Who knew drawing a .5 would be so …. Unique

Just got a new gouache set!

This is my first piece I’ve made using gouache and I loveeeeee it. I don’t really enjoy using watercolours because they’re so… watery. And I can’t stand the bleeding. And although acrylics are a step above that for me, I really hate the way it layers on pretty thick yet dries really fast so I always end up getting a really weird texture on the canvas.

But gouache…. It’s like the good qualities of both combined. It layers on flat like watercolor, but it doesn’t take like 10 minutes to dry. It has the controllability of acrylic paint while not getting the weird texture. I CAN LAYER ON TOP OF PAINT BUT STILL BE ABLE TO RE ACTIVATE IT SEPARATELY. I love it so much

A charcoal piece I drew a while back!

Photos from Carlsbad Caverns

I have a passion for sculpture

This is the level of trombone I aspire to be

Flower arrangement I made a while back for my neighbor!

I forgot to post this photo from fan expo a while ago 😭 somehow all (most) of the Link cosplayers were able to find each other and recreate the spider man meme. we’re basically family now ig (I covered their faces just in case even tho I know no one is going to see this 💀)

I’m the one in the front with the cape, not the BEST photo but my friend took it so it’s fine 💀

I’m including this on my art blog bcs I hand made the cosplay and I feel like that counts In the “arts and crafts” category? Jokes aside I was working on it for two weeks straight because I could not bring myself to wear my… interesting Azula costume from seventh grade (which doesn’t even fit me anymore.)

So that was how I spent the first part of my summer I guess!

Oh and I made Rauru’s arm. It did have nails but it turns out how glue wasn’t as effective as I thought it would be…

Ignore my awkward posing but this is the whole cosplay! I like how it turned out :} I bought a master sword off of Amazon for this be proud of me

Just bought Clip Studio Pro, I’m going to be switching over from using ibis paint and photoshop to this because I prefer the layout more (and my Adobe license is through the school so who know when it’ll expire.)

This is a sketch I’m working on to get a feel of the program. I plan on finishing this art piece soon, and I will also post that to this blog!

This is just so much more efficient for me in the long term, because in my opinion ibis paint is not as professional of a drawing program, and photoshop is too expensive for me to use it only part time.

the places you’ll go

A portrait I did for a gift! I didn’t end up having time to properly draw the clothing or to make the hair completely to my liking, but I’m really happy with how this one turned out.

A WIP portrait! I love how this sketch is coming along so far.
