our model was sooo nice today and relatively new to making art himself, super enthusiastic about how exciting it is and was taking photos of everyone's work. he mentioned posting his own art on IG so I asked if he wanted to be mutuals and he was also very enthusiastic about this. and then he read my bio outloud to the whole class and went TEEHEE YOU'RE SO FUNNY and I'm glad it was the last day of term so we can all forget about that hfjd

if it spares anyone else the silly amount of grief and annoyance I went through: sometimes the thing that isn't going right with your art is how you hold the pencil
I've been getting so down this year about being unable to achieve the look I want no matter how many materials I buy that seem like they should do the job. recently I did some inking and it was neat and accurate to the sketch and all but I really disliked the result. it felt so lacking. which in itself was weird because I used to be fine about my inking, I was using the same pens I've had for years, and now even that wasn't coming out how I wanted?? so what could be different? WELL. at some point in dwelling on this I realised that somewhere along the line over the last year+ between adapting to timed life drawing, watching a lot of videos of artists working, and experimenting with inking as though it was tattooing, I'd entirely adapted to doing long, unbroken strokes. the fact I was improving at a technique I'd never been good at seemed to just switch my brain to thinking ok this is how to do art and I'm achieving it well which is probably what I wanted to happen? even if it looks a bit wrong? so after this I consciously went back to having a lighter hold, doing shorter strokes, and it immediately fixed 99% of my problems
I think the main thing misunderstood about 'it's the artist not the tools' is that as much as it depends on your actual skill level, it's sooo much about how you handle what you're working with. even if you use something really high-end or the exact same as another artist you may not get a different result to usual. I never really see this talked about, but as much as there's no one set style you Should draw in there's also no one set way to use materials. certain techniques are popularised and encouraged, so it may just look like how you're ~supposed~ to do art. and it might seem silly to have made art for years and learned all of that complicated stuff just to discover you're holding a pencil wrong, but humans will often settle with doing something in a way they don't like for a long time before realising they're allowed to do it differently. so please if your work just isn't quite how you want it to be, consider there are sooo many ways to grip a pen and draw a line that might suit you so well !
possibly maybe getting a new tablet in the ny sales and I swear I will draw 3000x more than I have this year..I’ve been so bad for not making time for it this year or just going ugh bucks again? I shouldn’t just draw bucks again. when I get a beautiful new tablet I will draw them DAILY
posting the same art across sites like ‘my super cutie wife who is so pretty I drew this instead of putting him through a pasta roller while yearning to braid his hair’ on tumblr and ‘here’s a new sketch, been loving their work recently haha enjoy :)’ everywhere else
YIPPEE……getting a reshare is very cool but getting a LIKE is fine I’m not sliding to the ground

weee I’m really happy with how these buckies repaints turned out so I’m investing in some new brushes and materials <: I used to repaint bjd and fashion dolls 10+ years ago so have just been using what I already had, but I’d like to do lots more of these so !! time for more suitable tools !
bought some mysterious already-painted custom bucks that were being sold off by someone with absolutely no details on the who and why of them existing, and the photos were really lq..excited and concerned 😳
at 9am I tucked my draft back into bed and promised that I’d be back after I’d finished all my jobs for the day, but then the afternoon went wrong and then the evening and most of the night too, and I kept promising each time that I’d definitely be back at some point. now it’s bedtime and matt is 0 words closer to getting his smooches :(
