I completed this year’s inktober! Here is week 1 ☻
This morning I dreamt of holding a piglet; it was very white, very soft and very well fed. It was also wearing a fuzzy sweater. I can tell this will be a good year 🐽 #firstpostof2019
Just a little time Just a little something else instead Just a little time Just a little something up ahead I'm dreaming of... A #dtiys a while back 😭 This was such a memorable show with heartfelt songs, story and lovable characters. I'm grateful for this masterpiece ❤️ Are there any shows that you're currently watching? I hope you're having a nice Sunday, and have a good week!
Behold! The golden otp 🍙❤️🐱
Day 10: Flowing
This is my contribution to World Mental Health Day 🙂 One of the exercises I learned from the meditation app @headspace was to imagine getting covered by ‘liquid sunlight.’ It helped feel a sense of warmth and think of good thoughts ☀️ I hope you all are having a good day!
Day 22: Little
I wanted to focus on the idea of aging and growth for the two prompts. How did I do? ✨🦌
Commission work for ineffable--omens: redesigning the characters of the Good Omens original book cover. It was a fun project! 😈😇
Commissions are still open! Feel free to message me for more info or inquiries 👋
Today is my birthday! (11/23) So I would like to gift you all with this announcement:
I have (finally) created my own food blog! @comfydarkeats ✨🍽✨
Food and art are both things that I greatly enjoy. When I was asked what my dream career would be, I answered that I'd want to be a food illustrator.
I say "finally" because, to be honest, even though they are my passions, it took me a while to just get started. Maybe it's the fear of making mistakes, or that the results won't turn out the way I want it to. Does anyone else feel this? 😭
A very wise friend told me, "Why not start with a 'bad drawing'? Why not paint a 'bad thing.' And just keep going until you finally get something good." In other words, I won't know if the piece is bad if I don't get started at ALL.
I'm also trying to apply this mindset in other aspects of my life. I admit to not accomplishing a lot of goals (let alone daily tasks) because of this fear of failure, fear of not getting it right the first try, which causes me to stop on my tracks and just be stagnant overall.
I know this is something I need to work on, but as I'm getting older, I'm learning that it's okay to make mistakes, as long as there's the eagerness and acceptance of bettering myself. I'm also trying to take in this saying, "There's no better time than the present." It's been said so many times, but I never really had that sink in until now.
Creating this blog is a small step, but it's important to me that I initiate at all instead of going, "someday." So here's to starting new things that may turn into accomplishments!
Is there something that you've been wanting or needing to do?
"Don't worry, you're among friends." Is it me, or does anyone else get these mellow, nostalgic vibes during the Fall season? When the falling leaves turn golden and the weather (slowly) gets chillier, it's just👌 One of the reasons why Autumn is my favorite season is seeing the vivid changes outside. The gradual changes showing that time is still moving, even when it doesn't feel like it sometimes. I like to think that they're reminders that moments will pass. And especially during this time now, this gives me lots of peace these days. Anyways, I hope you all are doing well and having a good start to the week 🍂🧡
