Pros of ocs: - creative - fun - all ur favourite things tailored exactly for u - the person who makes content for them is u Cons of ocs: - makes u insane - consumed by thoughts of them on the daily - the person who makes content for them is u

was trying to thinking of how to incorporate chris being a microbio major into maceration without it being a more generalized biology. my answer is gross and nasty carcasses

so much of my character design is intentional and i'd love to talk about it more but...yapping without context isn't great for getting people interested...and there's other things i don't want to spoil (cough maceration cough)

started watching #xfiles 2 years ago today, so here's some paintings where I tried to pay homage to the show and experiment with style a little

they should invent a type of art where you don’t feel inadequate every two months and get forced into crisis mode as a result

american masculinity is so amazing. caring about clothes as a man apparently makes you "gay" but our position on geopolitics totally depends on whether you wear a suit

every time i open an ask box on instagram and nobody responds, i suddenly understand what it means to be a fish in an aquarium

Hello everyone. I bumped down the price of my commissions from 45 usd to 35 usd. Would absolutely love any help at all, as I need to buy insulin for my mother, and we are running low on food. I'll work for you as best as I can!!

Hi! I'm Sophie, a senior working on my thesis film. It’s centered on a number of environmental themes, including how people perceive predatory animals. I’m looking mainly for colorists and a sound designer! #lookingforartist #animationstudent #thesisfilm #animator

I think I have to try this approach because so far the normal way isn't working and I keep getting rejected.

open up & he will feed. #oc #elfenjoyers

i think i should enter every interview i do with "hire me please please please please please" as way of pitching myself. call It tasteful desperation, or even an avant-garde form of practical artistic expression.

between being frustrated about chronic pain and being frustrated about struggling to draw hands (still), i think art just wants me dead rn

loss: i forgot to take pictures of the paintings i did in class today win: i don’t have to go into the studio this weekend because i finished my paintings in class

this post is made even better by that fact that this is essentially the context of the scene
