This kid just showed up in my headspace last week so...I guess Kat has a brother now. So far he seems like a much more mellow counterpart to his sister. Less about painting, more on tinkering with gadgets. Also a book worm.

Some of you are probably coffee drinkers, and that’s okay too!

So I realized I’ve not been posting every day, so here’s to uploading groups of Inktober submissions at a time until I catch up. (Not to mention I’m also 3 sketches behind as of today)

One day I’ll be able to draw a koi fish. ;^; that is not today.

♪ Dive in deep into the ocean ♪ Wuaaahh....I can't believe I've left this sitting in my folders since 2018 TT_TT....Ocean by Mike Perry was a good summer vibe for me and it seriously took more effort than I would've liked to motivate myself to finish this. Well, it's done. Onto more projects....

I'm not obsessed with water features or exploring fallen hollowed trees, what are you talking about?! Here, have some ASMR. and dragon-onigiri (let's just call it that and ignore the fact that I always forget seaweed) . .

Stretched my legs to go outside with a good friend today and tried my hand at some videography! But also love love love watching water features. I mean- I’m not obsessed with water features what are you talking about?

BEWARE OF SIGN. Also came across this good boi on my nature walk doin' a protec. He defend! . . #dogwalking #dogs #guarddog #goodboy #art #artistsoninstagram #comicart #comics #socialdistancing https://www.instagram.com/p/CB99cUjHQDS/?igshid=g27155cmu32q

Seriously. The struggles. Q_Q  I was having a conversation with a friend today and it started with me complaining that I can't play a piece of music without stopping and thinking what the next phrase every now and then.

While I haven't had time or energy to make new content, it's fun to find some old stuff and see how much has changed. Or not changed. Practice, kids. Practice lots. 😐 #nostalgia #oldworks #traditionalart #drawing #art #artistsoninstagram #artofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B6v7kYtnh2C/?igshid=mq0vnd25n70s

I don't normally post non-art stuff to my gallery, but my day trip was so full of natural art that...how could I not? Crazy gardens, a small tide pool filled with life, some unique chickens....(seriously where is its face?) and some silly goats. 😋 had so much fun visiting, thank you @r_and_r_cleaning (at Victoria, British Columbia Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2I2WZSHaGA/?igshid=1okiulliewbpg

A WIP I found in my folders from 2018 and in a mood where it's easier to finish an oldie than start a new big thing so... #celeste #art #artistsoninstagram #artofinstagram #digitalart #digitalpainting #instaart #stars #moon #galaxy #nightsky #galaxydress #chibi #chibidrawing #chibiart #oc #originalcharacter https://www.instagram.com/p/ByHcdPUHn4g/?igshid=pp0krhnr951t

Taking a break from doing the huge dump of a to-do list and doing a revamp of Cassandra's design was really relaxing. Also me trying to be all graphic-artist-like for a background and actually it turned out okay this time....I feel productive! 8D

"Let beauty come out of ashes..." LET'S DO A SPEEDPAINT FOR THIS COOL SONG -10 hours later- Nevermind. #art #instaart #digitalart #digitalpainting #forestfire https://www.instagram.com/p/BvGS_0jnIlb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7q6udzvw9nr1

Lately I noticed myself thinking more and more, “Did I do/say something wrong?” or “Do they hate me?” etc etc. Becoming more and more needlessly anxious about others’ reactions. It’s not that I don’t ever hear positive comments, but I also get this voice of reasoning: “They just pretend to be nice because they pity you” and I have no idea where it’s coming from. But knowing the battle I have helps me to try to help others win the fight against their inner put downs.

No. I’m busy spending arbitrary amounts of time in my mind palace accomplishing absolutely nothing productive.
