hey u losers i hope you are not sitting at home eating chocolate by yourself because that is lame
(i say as i continue to sit at home and eat chocolate by myself)
anyways valentine's day is about love right
well you can love more than just the person you make out with
so i'm going to list some people that i love platonically because that is what love is about
~*APPRECIATION*~
so without further ado here are some fine babes
first up is amy aka driftwoodwolf
amy is basically fantastic at everything she does and leaves behind a trail of glitter wherever she walks. also she is an anime character irl. normally i have a jealous fit when i meet someone more talented than i am but i couldn't with amy because i liked her too much. if i could buy amy every single video game on her backlog along with time for her to play them i would. i have too many nice things to say about amy. she gave me an entire box set of anime for free once and i left it at her house and proceeded to get lost in the fog on the way home. wow i am dumb. amy is not, however.
next is bug aka Magnum-Bug
i have not known bug for very long but you haven't seen a man until you have seen one drawn by bug. sometimes i am creepy and look over her shoulder when she is flipping through her sketchbook and i see fine men and cry a little on the inside. they are SO FINE. SO FINE. beyond men bug is a rad cosplayer and just so chill and so easygoing.
ahh and there's liz Landylachs
landy just showed up to one of my livestreams one day and chatted with me about college things and showed me her art and i couldn't BELIEVE that someone like her was actually taking the time to watch me draw!! beyond that, landy has been kind enough to help me with things ranging from AP physics to figuring out 3D sculpting. her work is absolutely breathtaking alongside of her fabulous personality.
notice how all of hope's pictures are the same character. he is taking over my inbox. haha anyways hope is really supportive just absolutely everywhere i post my art and always stops by my streams and reblogs my dumb pictures of kiwis that i'm always posting. so while my inbox fills up with canyon her inbox fills up with kiwis. it's a fair trade.
mouse is like a machine ok. mouse is always making art and i don't know how she can make the sheer volume of art she makes because it must be hella tiring. mouse needs to get her microphone the next time i have a stream so i can hear her lovely voice haha YOU HEAR ME. god if you look at her work from just a few years ago and then look at it now she has improved SOO much because she is always making art all the time. let that be a lesson.
haa i don't even know how to address her because she doesn't want her real name online haha. So Chucklemunchkin here has dealt with me for quite a while now. Froot Loops has probably withheld a lot of judgment in my direction but that is ok because we are bros. If Sugar-dipped Sunflower had more freetime, she should draw some more!! Right, Kidney Bean???
and last but not least I cannot forget my dearest bb JackalsShadow
jackal bb doesn't draw very much anymore (one of these pics is from 2012 lolol) but i'm always reblogging her stuff on tumblr. like we've always wound up in the same fandoms or sense of humor or something for the past idk six years??? very long time. i accidentally heard her voice for the first time in six years over game chat on pokemon hahahahhaha. that is to say though our long conversations are few because we are super busy all the time i still care about her oodles. such is similar with xToulax and fennet in regards to how long we've all known each other...we catch up occasionally but adult life is hard!! but i still love them all very much!!
anyways that is all because i am sleepy. there are definitely more but thinking is difficult and i still have a buttload of homework to do. so happy valentine's day everyone
remember to love your friends!! but especially
remember to love yourself!!
the chronicles of void
I started a project when I first moved to the southwest in January, hoping to keep my mind occupied by the boredom I thought would ensue. As it turned out, however, a ton of my time was occupied by applications for school, my full time job, my part time job, and my deep fascination with exploring the area around me. Now that it's finally way too hot to do anything, I was able to wrap up the project pretty recently and will upload it piece by piece in the coming days.
More is explained in the foreword I wrote for it, but it was a 9-piece challenge that I tried to create to embody how fast exactly I could create a piece that I thought looked g
*gasps for air* I'm BACK I'm BACK
The longer I'd sit on coming back to dA, the harder at less feasible it seemed. At this point, I'm sure most of my friends have left for other platforms, like I have, but there's been a significant lack of...return on investment? in posting my art elsewhere.
Not in a monetary sense. In a connection sense, in a feedback sense. I miss being around other artists and not having my work just get a few cursory "likes" and get buried under the superficiality of other people's lives...*cough*instagram. I miss critique. I miss being challenged.
I'm going to clear out all my messages and try to start again. I'm going to try to set aside the time to b
Letters from Germany
Hallo zusammen,
I moved to Germany temporarily for work in my field. I've been trying to stay artistically "alive," but it's difficult. For one, I try to spend most of my free time travelling and meeting people, which is fun, to an extent. I found myself pushing myself too hard to be active while forgetting a huge chunk of me is an introverted snail who needs time to recuperate by drawing.
So my inattentive lack of self-care has caused me to become continuously emotional. I'm happy when I'm riding on trains or buses, when I "allow" myself to "do nothing" because it's normal to do nothing on train and bus rides. I'm frantic in new cities, tr
what am I doing these days
here is a rundown of things I am doing:
getting my degree still
It's a hollow trudge but I meander up the path with pride
I'm taking thermodynamics right now and it's kicking my ass
(Surprise! I'm not going to college for art)building a fuel cell
it smells weird and I need to do more background research
I'm on twitch now
here I am
I try to draw a little every day but sometimes I gotta go live life ya know
I'm currently a hired comic artist
I'm illustrating a co-writing educational comics for chemical engineering curricula at various universities.
It's honestly the most fitting job I've ever come across
