The Animal
when hayao miyazaki said that true love was two people inspiring each other to live…recognizing just how hard living is, putting one foot in front of the other every day, how easy it is to lose our passion for it…… that’s the real shit
I’ve been watching Prehistoric Planet and realized it’s been forever since I’ve drawn any dinosaurs 🤔 These little paintings are from way back in 2013!

social media has really warped our perception of creativity and hobbies. Stop doing things to post them. Just write. Just journal. Just sketch. Just read. Just annotate. Just sing. Just crochet. Just do the thing you’re going to do with the assumption no one will ever see or know you did it. Stop performing. Just enjoy it.

Had to draw lil nas with some crows…his outfit is too good
Started my first job this week and dealt with some stress. I’m trying to focus on the positive moments, like when I recognized that I was doing well on my first day. I felt so proud of myself for persisting even though my mind was filled to the brim and my body ached. Change is hard but it can be accomplished!
Dreams of birds and tea, and magic😌✨
A little late but here is my summer banner
I’ve been struggling with identity and purpose as of late. It’s hard for me to live day by day when I feel left behind.
At least I have this moment of coziness in my room 🕯 🍀

Through the Forest
Oops, I never uploaded this one to Tumblr (which I only realized when someone else did, but then was kind enough to tag me, thank you)!
This is the comic that kickstarted my obsession with telling stories with as few panels as I could (usually 10-11 haha), so it’s got a soft spot in my heart.
Made myself a pigeon header 🐦💕!
More birds! I finally feel like I am getting the hang of this, it’s fun to try out digital art again

it takes years to develop your craft. do not romanticize the idea of an ‘overnight success’. be a student. grow organically. get really good. hate your work. start over. find new ways to express the same ideas. the student becomes the master. your time will come.
More Avian August, I drew 3 birds in one day yesterday because I wasn't feeling it
THIS IS SO COOL
