i once heard a queer kid explain that one of the things that brings them the most relief and comfort is seeing a tattered pride flag with faded colors - because that's a sign of a place where a pride flag can soak in the sun and breeze for years and years.

It's #PortfolioDay 🌟 I'm Viv, I make comics and illustrations! Genres include fantasy, LGBTQ+, comedy, and romance πŸ’› 🎨 vimeddiee.carrd.co πŸ“§ [email protected]

Peter no tail is on this list! I loved that cartoon as a kid so much.

I think one of the hardest concepts for some people is the difference between "this is bad/poorly done" and "I personally don't like this".

just saw a post that was like β€œi wrote a fic for views because [character] was trending” and i cannot imagine living like this. i write because my dick has been possessed by a demon and the only way i can free it is by putting a guy through the pear wiggler

Today's mood is "how draw" as I attempt to finish the comic pages after over a week of not picking up a pencil.

Design is that job when most of the time you're doing some corporate marketing whatever but then sometimes you draw silly little icons and it's joyful.

I'm going to make some time on the weekend to draw. (Work has been insane past few weeks...) Any character in particular you'd like to see?

Artists feel pressured to make new art too quickly at the moment. Normalise artists fucking disappearing for months. Just walk off into the woods for a year and come back with a single sketch. It’s good for you

Webcomics used to be so much slower. There'd be a page a week (two if you're lucky). And the anticipation of what happens next. Getting up before work, making tea and sitting at the computer opening bookmarks so you can catch up with all the new pages. I miss it.

Seeing Kelly's work always makes my day better 🩷 Waking up to this reminded me of all those mornings turning on my computer to see the new page of Manly Guys.

Yesterday was insane and today I'm just lying in bed, trying to finish a comic page and dealing with exhaustion and PMS at the same time. Trying to come up with lunch I can make that requires as few spoons as possible.

I once, with full confidence, introduced myself to some girl who came to our high school with one of our classmates. Only for her to tell me "yeah I know who you are we had PE together in elementary school".

Getting back into reading manga

With Nori. Poppy and Glug are there to make sure we don't run any red lights, and we WILL get there. Eventually. We'll stop at every restaurant/bakery/ice cream stand on the way, and get a flat tire, but we can sing along and it will all be a great fun adventure. We're not in a rush.

Brothers.

I personally know people who hate TROP. But since none of them actually watched it (and one didn't even read the books) their opinion doesn't really matter.

This is so cute and something I'd love to read 🩷

If your day has been difficult, or if you’re feeling anxious, here’s some Cornish medicine to ease your heart. It might not change things much but hopefully a moment of calm will help in a small way. May your evening be peaceful, my friends. 😊 #Cornwall #sunset #sky #ocean #calm #peace #photography

I got some less-analytical-more-creative projects at the moment so I'm too drained at the end of the day to draw anything. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« Hoping to have some energy tonight.
