paranoia

control freakism

sense of self-worth so low that it loops back around into being totally dismissive of everyone else

a warm-hearted kind center beneath 200 protective walls of bitterness that doesn't actually make the bitterness better in any way at all even a little bit

bisexuality

crushing feelings of responsibility

zero understanding of own bodily autonomy that bleeds out and affects how they treat others

a lil petty vindictive sadism they maybe don't wanna look at too hard or acknowledge

full self-awareness of all their most negative traits without working to fix those traits at all

internalized misogyny

a mysterious undefinable hunger that cannot / should not / must not ever be sated

Showing off the Arapaima I made! (Pattern also made by me)

Pendant Shaped as a Dove

17th century

Baroque pearls, gold, and enamel

French or Flemish

Glass Idols, oil.

This is one of the most complex pieces I've ever painted. It took me about six months, including the previous study sketches.

I think the second one from the left turned out the best. The dude in the middle is a bit disappointing. I think it's because it doesn't have as many planes as the guy on the left.

I also regret that I didn't make the background more detailed, but after working for so long on the lil' crystal dudes, I I just couldn't look at it anymore, lol.
