Sharpie, Crayola, and a random fine tip marker on a 3 by 5 index card. Also, my scanner turned the yellow into a peachy color… 😑

Currently thinking to share the other things I draw on Instagram, because creatures are not the only things make, and it doesn’t really make sense to draw something and not share it when I’m trying to put myself out there.

I’m also thinking to do some live streams this month, as I only have a small stretch of pet sitting towards the end of it. I’m pretty sure I’ve explained in a previous post about why the live streams, but just in case. The reason is because I am hoping to combat the facts that I only interact with a rather small group of people on the regular, have practically no presence online, and I’m not particularly comfortable being in the public eye. And while they may game related right now, I also hope to eventually have the wherewithal to do art ones, because I like sharing what I make and learning what people think about it. And while I know that for some people just watching the process itself can be fascinating or even soothing, I also know that people are curious and may have questions about how or why I did something that I won’t have the answer for later. For example, while I’m pretty sure I started with the big eye feather, I’m not sure why it’s a bird thing, or why it’s pupil is shaped like that.

Now I just have to find the courage to do these things… ugh… Ok. I will post to Instagram, and put a schedule of live streams this week on YouTube. I just need to remember to do so, and not let myself get too worked up about it. Wish me luck.

Hope you all have a wonderful week, and independence day if you celebrate one, and safe travels!!!

Surprise surprise, it’s sharpie on 3 by 5! And it will be sharpies for a while, as I have a container full of them, am trying to use up materials, and they are rather convenient while I figure out how to do other things.

Stuff and Things!

Classes: I minorly forgot about them, so I’m still not signed up… however things are looking a little more hopeful in the paying for them department if things line up right!

Paintings: Finished the last Cute or Creepy one! and then I actually looked up why I was having so many issues with some things… yeah… my last one especially would have looked better if I had known those things before hand, but such is life. Next is landscape paintings. As for pictures, I’m hoping to have enough to pay for everything I need to and have some left over for a light box or something after the next few stretches of pet sitting.

Redbubble: I think they changed some things for having a store (or I just missed something), so I have some things to change/update, however I hope to have it going soon! Also, while I am working on some things specifically for redbubble, if you see something I’ve made here and you want to be able to get it on something or just a sticker of it, leave a comment on it letting me know.

Social: I’m having a little bit of a dilemma, as my phone is running out of space, and I kinda need all of the things on it. I’m talking like don’t have any games on it, got rid of a method of communication (pretty much only used once in a blue moon with family, but STILL!!!) levels of running out of space. So I may need to forget about social for a bit, because it takes up too much space to try and keep right now, however social is one of THE methods for getting your stuff out there. So I’m not sure what to do yet.

Streaming: Will not be doing for most of next month due to pet sitting. And I’m contemplating adding another game, because the one I’m doing is sooooooo sloooooooow and not very conducive to engagement… And I’m already not a very engaging person.

Thumb: Is fine! While my efforts probably helped, it wasn’t as bad as I thought, and while there’s still a little recovering to do, it is no longer annoying, it just looks a little funny.

Website: unchanged, due to forgetfulness and anxiety.

YouTube: Unchanged.

… I think that’s pretty much it. Safe travels, and I hope you all have a wonderful week!

Bird snake?

Not a quality image. Neither was the last one, as I took them with my phone. Because my computer and scanner are not at the little office, I didn’t think to bring them home, and I haven’t really had the ability to go get them since I made them, which was the 28th…

Which also means I haven’t really been able to make more, as most of my materials are down there now.

Thankfully I did find some index cards that were hiding, and there is no shortage of random pens and mechanical pencils here. So when life gets a little too busy for me to get to the office to make something, I will just have to return to the early days of black, white, and whatever colored materials I happen to find.

Hope you all have a wonderful week!

A Little Helping hand

Life has a lot of ups and downs, and this guy took a bit of a tumble. So his friends decided to give him a little helping hand… although… I think they went a little overboard.
