Drew One Of The Flowers We Got Last Year (it Survived Winter! Yay!)

Experimenting with which way I want to do this…I have 8 different ways I did this.

mushroom #1:

draw

shade

outline

paint (gouache)

couldn’t decide which lighting I liked better…so have both! (There will be two pictures with slightly different lighting for the rest of the mushrooms as well)

💜

you guys, I love seeing the “viewed” stat on my stories for Wattpad (despite it counting me as viewing a part when I just get done publishing it)

Because… other people have looked at my stories?? They’ve read them??

I know if I showed my stories to 20 people in real life, that would be huge. Seeing that people are viewing my writing gives me more motivation to write (I even have a rough outline of where I want the rest of The Tales of a Mermaid Princess to go!*) and create.

Even just showing it to one person in real life would be a pretty big thing for me (since I usually don’t share my art or writing).

And speaking of sharing my art, thank you to all who like my posts 🥰 It really means a lot to me that you’re enjoying my artwork!!

Thank you to all y’all who are liking, interacting, and enjoying my artwork! It really means a lot to me! I really enjoy my art, and I’m so glad I got to share it!

I decided to redesign Onyx after I made this ⬇️ and redrew her.

I was struggling to make the purple and black (or purple and really dark purple) work… and white (or really light purple) just seems to go a lot better with her.

…and I wanted to make them two sides of the same coin anyway: opposite, yet the same.

Eyes still look a little odd, but I’m getting better. And I’m so glad I figured out the shape of the quills (I was watching the Snapcube fandubs last night and got a good look at the shape of Shadow’s quills… soo… that helped).

drew a flower from a plant I planted today!

Painted with gouache.

Decided to go with a black outline.

(Light blue outline is paint pen.)

Reference:

It is National Puppy Day my dudes, gals, and non-binary pals. Enjoy this drawing of a puppy I did.

I’m not very good at drawing dogs, lol. I tried to use the same technique I used with drawing the black cat.

y’all, I wanna start reading (and potentially start writing) fanfics

But I don’t know where to start. I have an Ao3 account now, but I’d like to hear some suggestions for fics to read!

Fandoms I’m in:

1. Sonic the Hedgehog

2. Marvel Cinematic Universe

3. Percy Jackson (it’s been a while since I’ve read the books, but whatever—I’d be up for reading some fic about Nico being happy with his boyfriend or getting closure with his sister or something)

…just had an idea for a fic I could write.

I need to get on that shit.

Anyway, if y’all have any suggestions, please let me know!

>(Imaginary bonus points if it’s a really niche, underrated fic! I wanna support other small artists and writers!)<

Found this drawing of a mushroom I did a while ago. At least a month ago…probably two or two and a half, honestly.

I know I was trying to use gouache to color it in. The outline is a sharpie paint pen thing.

The one comment I’ve gotten was about… I think offering their services to animate or promote it or whatever. I responded to it and it got deleted. Sad.

I’ve gotten several comments like these over on Wattpad as well. Pretty sure it’s a scam.

reblog if you’re a writer who’s very terrible at responding to comments from your readers, but has read them all and loves and appreciates each and every single one of them very dearly
