People Are My Favorite Things To Draw, But In The Name Of Practice And Improvement, I'm Trying To Expand

charismaticoutcast said: You know, what’s funny about that is that any time I draw my cartoon self, I make sure to include my gapped tooth because I almost feel like it’s a signature of some sort.

Yeah! When I draw my own teeth (and decide to be accurate instead of just drawing them like raggedy shark teeth) I always include that my left incisor has been worn flat because I click my teeth when I'm anxious.

Doodled this in between seeing clients.

I’ve been in a weird place with my art lately. Feeling like there’s no point if it doesn’t “do” something, and then doubting the ability of art to “do” anything in the first place.

But it was cool to draw this and think “Man, if 10 year old me knew they’d be able to draw Sailor Moon this well, their head would explode.”

If you’re ever wondering why I’m slow to post art, it’s because I have a full time job and a repetitive stress injury that is triggered by my job and basically every form of art that I make.

These are two in-progress paintings I’ve been working on for awhile now, “Ecce Homo” and “St. Agatha (left).”

I'm calling this one done, aside from getting some varnish for it. I really need to get better light bulbs. Natural light makes such a difference.

Experiment with making small squares and then weaving them together. MAJOR practice piece. May do more with this, may leave it as-is. Designs based on Paracas textiles.

So I’ve scanned the pages of my risographed fashion study zine (you can buy that here)

I was waiting to post these final pages until I'd completed the cover and done a couple other things to go along with this project, but I decided to quit being precious about it and just post the dang things.
