‘Look Forward to Better’ (+ detail shots).  Microsoft Paint.

I struggled for the longest time with how I wanted to finish this, but then the little plant earrings I ordered came in and solved everything!  I’ve started work with a new job that I love, but it means that I have a little less time to unwind with drawing.  That makes those moments of being able to doodle all the more precious, though.

Ironically, I forgot to give her earrings.

‘Rest.’  Microsoft Paint.

Happy New Year!  Grew a little bored of playing Minecraft while sick, so I cleaned up a messy sketch!  Appropriately named, since I don’t think I’ve slept this much since I was a baby! 

As always, please be safe, wash your hands and wear your mask, and God bless <3

‘Looking Forward.’  Microsoft Paint + Pixlr.

A doodle that I love despite being unsure of how to finish it for the longest time!  I drew the background in Paint, warped it in Pixlr randomly, realized I liked it, and then put it together in Paint again.  I used a picture of myself as a reference for posing!  

For anyone wondering, since I can’t use layers on MS Paint, I make the background as a separate file from the main piece and then transparently paste the original drawing onto the background.  It’s not quite as effective as using a more sophisticated program, but it’s still fun figuring out how to work around such a simple program’s limitations!

Decided to try the #artvsartist thing.  I’m not super fond of taking pictures of myself, so this was the best I could offer!

Some of these are a little older, but I think that’s okay given this is my first time participating in this meme, lol.

A redraw/revisit to ‘First of December’, an old favorite!  One of the things I miss most about my older style is how I used colors.  Still, it’s cool to see how my style has grown and evolved over the years!
