Thinkin about doing art drills to see if it will help me learn to paint faster…

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

As lame and elementary as this sounds, forcing myself to work on art before my other hobbies has felt great for my soul and self esteem lol. Have been committed to the schedule for almost a week straight now and it’s been pretty painless despite being intimidated by the rigidity of schedules

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Yes!! It’s weird, cause in a way the realization carries a sense of “missing out” but knowing what I’ll gain back pretty much overpowers that

not having kids was not the life I envisioned for myself growing up. but when I think about my ideal life, ideal daily routine, how I want to spend my time and energy, kids are not a part of it

you ever wake up in the middle of the night with your arm totally asleep and then you have to pick it up with your other arm and move it…and its weird cause your arm doesn’t feel it so it’s like you’re touching someone else’s arm…yeah

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

These witch hunters legitimately piss me off to no end. Like I’m not even gonna give grace about the current landscape anymore. If you can’t bother to do 2 minutes of fucking research on an artist before making dumbass comments like this, consider shutting the fuck up.

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I regret to inform that committing to a schedule works excellently for goal progression. Tragic

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Yeah!! It’s releasing October 8th, apparently optimized for PS5

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Few more days till the more optimized Kingdom Hearts trilogy/pack drops 👀 I was a kid playing KH1 and I got stuck and never finished the game lol. I’m excited to pick it back up in my adulthood!

Brains are so dumb. 30 seconds before I open Procreate to work on art and my brain is just “I don’t really feel like doing this rn” and then 30 seconds after my brain is like “omg I love this” and I’m in my flow state for hours. The initial resistance resets the next day. Why????

This and it also motivates me in the gym

No trial, no arrest, just blunt force trauma to the dome

The Cornell case gives me such visceral feelings like idk. I think about what I would do if someone tried to rape me and the only answer I can come to is to kill them and I’m not even exaggerating. Just visceral rage

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

I’ve always been so resistant to committing to a schedule for myself to accomplish my creative goals…sigh it’s time to lock in. Gotta rewire my neuropathways like I did to become a gym rat

Still one of my favourite dragons. A wood dragon from Strangehollow, a book you will find in my shop here: buff.ly/kor46L0 #dragon #dragonart #greendragon #wooddragon #bestiary

watercolour - the head and neck of a green dragon covered in antler/horn like growths all around its head and neck. Its nose is pink and its eyes are shiny and black and it has a benign expression.

My heart is so set on this style but I need to get faster for my own sanity :(

For artists who make lineless imaginative-realism type art, what would you say is the most important thing you learned that sped up your process? As much as I enjoy the process for the *most* part I’m becoming increasingly unhappy with how long it takes to finish a piece

Omfggggg they’re incorporating ChatGPT in the mandatory workplace harassment courses now lmao

I was literally chronically drinking 32oz of water a day for the longest and yesterday with a straw I drank just about 92oz 😭 had to pee every 20min but I’ll adjust lol I hope I’ll feel a difference soon 👀

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Crazy how I’m able to make myself stay way more hydrated just by using straw…I’m married to convenience apparently

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Yep around the same for me! Just from my employer’s 401k lol but I wish I started my Roth and opened a regular brokerage account sooner!

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Really wish someone in my family emphasized in my early 20’s that I should start investing

What sparked the trend of comments lately of people writing out emojis in brackets like [red heart] [tears of joy] like what is that

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

I like to paint over my sketch layer but I also like to separate base color body parts into different layers and clip mask them…the struggle

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Going to failure on the hack squat machine is mental agony but I’d be devastated without it lmao

I feel like I’ll have a lot more friends to hang out with irl once I move to LA

And most of the time the images aren’t production compatible

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

The amount of companies that send us raster AI generated images to my workplace to get printed/engraved 🫩

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

That’s awesome! How do you personally go about using it? Like do you just invest extra money in there when you can?

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

I feel dumb that I haven’t utilized a regular brokerage account…changed that today

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

I’ve done very good with my savings this year that I can max out my roth for the first time ever 🙂‍↕️

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

I really underestimated how filling veggies are in soup!!

Two words: ONION AND CILANTRO!!!! Non negotiable

Paloma McClain @palomamcclain.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Not that long ago I loathed the idea of cooking meals that involved chopping veggies because of the time spent. but once I learned how imperative veggies are for good flavor, I suddenly find chopping veggies soothing lol

I’m enjoying Onimusha but man Dawnwalker is calling my name for a 2nd run and I don’t think I have the patience to wait for NG+
