⭐Starlight ⭐ Tentatively calling it done, may tinker with it more later though. The limited palette was actually quite helpful to streamline the process, might do that more often! #art

Turns out gamifying tasks really is what motivates me, and I have been having a super productive last three days all because I have a stupid baby birb to buy cute clothes for.

My goal this year is to have all my stock and resources have at least one sale. These three are the only ones left (outside my tutorials) that have NEVER sold! Anyone in need of some lovely models or really cool textures?? ;) ✨ ko-fi.com/sambeawesome... #stockphotos #artresources #shop #kofi

In the midst of chaos, the first thing I forget about is social media. Which on the grand scheme of things is probably one of the less disastrous things to forget about. Anyway, I'll try to remember this place exists, and also I'm on Cara: cara.app/allyourcrook...

A voice in my heart is always screaming "we could have a good world." We could we could.

The process of moving and setting up my cool new studio has rendered me so exhausted that the fact that I have a cool new studio is meaningless, lol. Oh man. I look forward to finishing shit up and having time to actually enjoy having a space to be creative again.

My new digital pen should be arriving -- at my mom's, because of the move -- by the 30th, and if you don't think I'm gonna spend the WHOLE following weekend inking shit...?? I didn't realize how much of stress reliever drawing had become until I couldn't do it for almost two months.

Do not dunk. Do not quote-post. Do not screenshot and repost. They wish to be visibly cruel because it makes them feel big and strong. Block them with the most powerful block button we've had on social media to save yourself the energy, and save others from the garage being spread

Not everyone can run or sit on a board. Good thing there are literally dozens of other proactive means of defending libraries and schools! Here are but 56: bookriot.com/56-small-tas...

I've spent the last several weeks trying to find my digital pen so that I could scan & ink my last 3 sketches. Couldn't find it anywhere, and REFUSED to believe I would have packed it in December, knowing we wouldn't be moving until the end of January. On Thursday, I found it. In the dishwasher.

If anyone has any wisdom, feel free to chime in; as part of my over-arching New Year's goals I'm walking blind trying to learn embroidery: https://buff.ly/4jgJyYS

So initially I was gonna ask, "is Cara still a thing, since I hadn't heard much about it since the big boom at its inception, but logging on, I can see it's still a thing (especially since I more want a community than I want a million eyes on my work, personally). I guess a better question is: (1/2)

Looking at the schedule and hurting, knowing I won't be at #Arisia this year. It ws the right choice, given the circumstances, but I'm feeling pretty intense FOMO right now.

Unwanted and unasked for advice from men is just... unavoidable if you post literally anything on the internet, huh?

Decided to be ambitious and make on of my New Year's Goals to learn ten new skill/try ten new mediums. Hahahaha... ah. Wish me luck:

Sometimes the comment sections of posts are absolute trash fires, but it does provide the service/satisfaction of being able to mass report/mass block bigots and transphobes.

What is the thing you accomplished this year that meant the most to you?? (P.S. I mean this genuinely -- "surviving" is a complete and valid answer.)

The stuff people will say under their full government names on public facing social media and then wonder why they are shunned by potential partners, jobs, etc. is... fucking wild.

Anyone have any particularly wild of ambitious creative projects/endeavors for 2025 they're interested in sharing?? #artists #creatives #creativeprojects

I'm in the mood to read something, but this means I have to actually sit down and read something. I'm very pro-audiobooks, but I was always like, "love that they exist, they're just not for me," but like... maybe they *are* for me? Maybe I need to actually try them again?

submitted 106 days ago • 0 comments

Made the mistake of trying to develop a system for tracking my creative projects during what might be the absolute worst time for even trying to have creative projects (prepping for a move during the holiday season) I guess I'm building the muscle memory to check in every day and be flexible...????

HAHAHAHA I once again just remembered social media exists. Why doesn't my shit gain traction again? 🙄

I'm stuck in the funk of, "I want to do Everything all at once, but I can't, so I shall do Nothing." And it's reeeally fucking annoying.

I'm trying to "go slow" with my art. Working on multiple pieces at a time, not racing to post them. I know I could be better at the social media game by posting WIPs/making posts "but I still feel not producing makes the algorithm tank. I'm not an artist by trade, but I'd still like to be *seen.*

Is there a creative medium that you've been itching to try, but it feels too intimidating?? (Too hard, too expensive, too high of an access level...?) #ArtLife #Art #Creativity

submitted 201 days ago • 1 comment

Does your art have a "tell?"Either stylistically or because of certain elements you tend to incorporate, can people tell a piece is "yours?" Ex: All of my figures have piercings, often multiple. A lot of my female figure sport undercuts or shaved heads as well (no surprise. I'm often my own model)
