Alejandra Pinal (commissions open) @alejandrapinal.bsky.social · 01/10/2026So, in short: ✨✨✨Be careful how you practice it's okay to take breaks and to work slowly, learning and studying and applying the knowledge consciously and carefully is far more useful than speedrunning your way to a carpal tunnel injury✨✨✨ 040
