#blueblend post

I missed the 25th anniversary by two years. oops.

Went to Tokyo in Tulsa Convention recently and artist alley inspired me to draw this:

Artemis in her donut. In between an orange.

I defied my cat for this.

...I got too excited to practice coloring a new way that I forgot THE FRIGGIN' SWORD.

Less angst for Link, please.

Breath of the Wild, Age of Calamity, Tears of the Kingdom, and Skyword Sword have inspired me to draw these past three years more than anything else in the past decade.

I kept putting it off because I wanted to learn to draw digitally.

I struggle heavily with digitally.

(there were actually two pieces before this months ago that I somehow saved incorrectly and lost, and also lost motivation for the past few months.)

This was supposed to be practice and took 10hrs because I don't know where any of the tools and such are, or what exactly I'm wanting digitally versus my traditional art.

Regardless, it's not done - But it's done. I'm going to focus on letting myself post incomplete work - because every bit of it is still practice, and doing something is better than stagnation.

And who knows, maybe if I happen to get a smidgen of online validation I'll get even more motivation.

It was the nicest thing he could have said. Ever. Of all time.
