#bellatrixbones

My greatest weakness is probably the fact that I tend to fall back on doing really empty, meaningless and avoidant things as a coping mechanism for stress and depression and end up messing myself up even more down the line and being a nuisance to others. I hate this because I want to be a meaningful friend to people and i want to experience life but so often I just don't.My greatest strength is that I have always been pretty introspective, i think? which has allowed me to be aware of this problem and others, tbh, and have gotten to a point in my life where I have learned the importance of being honest and open about my weaknesses and limitations. That alone has cleared away a lot of my anxiety.

Yep I'm using oils. c: Thanks! I got into oil painting last year but I'm not used to traditionally painting the things I normally draw/ color digitally, so it is an interesting experiment if you ever get the chance. I appreciate being able to lay color down and blend it more liberally with paint than on photoshop. Acrylic or watercolor would be a lot cheaper than oil paint, but this is for a class sooo~

When you’re looking at animal shapes, think about the attributes you want to convey and choose those shapes that best fit the purpose of your design.
