randomly opened a page from The Hunter and re-read till the last finished one. it's so good. the compositions just get better and better, some decisions in visuals now that i forget enough about making them look so impressive... i need to dredge my way through all the irl bullshit to get back to it

Drew Semeon yesterday for the first time in years. Needed it for the new website, ticked it off the list like any other task, didn't really feel anything. Other than familiarity i guess. I know him, i'm comfortable drawing him still. What a character he was. Wish i'd miss him, but i don't anymore.

as if i didn't have enough stuff to deal with, now i need to piss-proof the entire apartment from the older dog who is now in his elderly phase i guess, and the younger who copies his every move, including this one unfortunately

gazing lovingly at a flyer from a local bakery with some graphic design is my passion type photoshopped sandwiches, being so relieved that this small business didn't go _that_ route in their advertisement. you know, _that_ one

when you're having a single spoon kind of day, but making breakfast to take the meds after requires at least two (one for coffee, one for food, secret third one if - when, realistically, - i drop something, spill it all over the kitchen and have to clean up)

watercolor sketches of every costume of Mon Mothma from #Andor s2 act 1. love how they all serve the narrative and show the progression of Mon's state of mind while also look gorgeous and the last one isn't so much a costume study but an appreciation of the mental breakdown rave scene #watercolors

It's been a year... #ZeroCompany #starwars #fanart If you know who's in the bacta tank, you know. Didn't expect Zero Company story to hurt this good midgame. Mildly spoilery yapping about the game in 🧵
A portrait of Hawks, the main character in Star Wars: Zero Company videogame. They sit next to a bacta tank with a vague silhouette of a patient inside and play their marfaset, a somewhat guitar like musical instrument. Their expression is solemn, their pose hunched, as if they are being crushed by the weight of what happened to a person in a bacta tank behind them. They are lit by a blue light from the tank and a pink magenta glow of a nebula behind the spaceship window.

despite reliably scoring high on all sorts of ASD and ADHD tests online it's rather satisfying to finally get an official diagnosis. maybe now i'll be able to manage it with something other than willpower (ran out of that one a long time ago)

while combing through my website which i might have to nuke soon, i re-read Noosphere after a long long time of not touching it. can't really express all i feel about it. there are some objective problems (lettering, mostly) that i would've liked to fix, but idk if it will ever happen. i miss it.
covers and title pages of 3 books of Noosphere—my first graphic novel published as a webcomic from 2016 to 2022. images feature colorful stylized urban landscapes and some of the characters

“THE NON-ARTIST FIXATION ON HYPERREALISM AS THE PINNACLE OF ART IS CLEARLY PART OF THE REASON SO MANY ADULTS THINK THEY CANNOT DRAW OR CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE FAILURES, KAWAII, FOLK ART, DOODLES, OR OTHER EASIER ENTRY POINTS ARE CONSIDERED CHILDISH, WHICH IS WHY JAPANESE DRAWING BOOKS ARE BETTER…”

A digital illustration of the character Prometheus from the game Hades 2. The figure is depicted as a shirtless man whose torso is covered in bandages, with orange eyes and blue hair. The figure holds his hands apart as blue flames are summoned from within them. The flames curl around the back of his head. Additionally, there are purple flames near the bottom of the composition.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑
Frustrated little dude gripping a pencil saying “how do I pack this down into something I can actually share?” While swirling rainbows labeled “INFINITE POTENTIAL” float around them.

Little dude frowns at a tiny grey box, exclaiming “all that work for THIS?!”

Little dude shoves the grey box into another little guy’s hands; Frowning, stomping off, and saying “Here you go, I made this, it sucks.”

Second little dude cracks open the box, swirling rainbows project out onto their face.

Second little dude stares in awe at all the swirling rainbows now floating around them.
