I've been doing studies of Loish lately, and I think that it's pretty apparent in this piece. I ended up joining her patreon seeking her social media wisdom, and I found so much more! I struggle with perfectionism, especially with my art. To the point where I don't want to share anything or, I want to delete everything I posted. I found her class on "Making Your Sketches Presentable" very helpful.

Painted this following Loish's methods. I think it turned out pretty well, but I'm not fond of the background much.

Loisvb / Loish : "Happy Halloween . . . everyone knows that black cats are the ultimate halloween mascot, so I had to draw them for this year's spooky season. Contrary to popular belief, they're not bad luck - unless you refuse to give them a treat or cuddle them, in which case they will seek revenge! "

“Had to join in on Loish’s DTYIS! But I couldn’t help myself—I’ve been obsessed with drawing Xander lately, so I mashed the two together.
