Digital pastel illustration. Purple hued lily pad study looking up through the lily pads to the surface of the water where the light filters through. One lily pad has Ditto’s smiling face.

Portrait of a young blonde man, looking at the viewer with a serious face. Tangeld around him is a being, vaguely resembling a nautilus, but with a long tail, that winds around the neck of the young man just until the bottom of the illustration. In the background and around him are green coral-like structures, and leaves and plants, some of them looking like sea kelp.

I feel you πŸ₯² also my brain gets a bit melty when I go at it for too long. Fun times

Also fun fact about these: baby's first t-shirt design and first time doing typography like this. It was a lot of fun!

I'm slowly coming around to enjoying making graphics. Trying to get better at it, I love the things I make and they deserve to be shown off in a good way 😌

Actually made separate graphics without the info dump for these to show them off a bit better ☺️

Oh for sure, that is also an important thing to consider! Tbh I'm mostly just really greedy for making things rather than comparing myself to others though :')

It really is. And then in the middle of it all, you're gonna need rest time from drawing too, which is technically a good thing but it can be so frustrating :'V

Oh big same πŸ˜‚
But yeah!! I luckily usually love the process of painting itself thankfully, but I have such a greed for all the ideas I've had to put on the backburner and it's impossible to catch up. Making peace with that is hard sometimes

I also wish to both make more intricate art and simplify it, but luckily with this one I can operate a bit more on whatever I feel like for the day

I wish for two modes: Drawing speed demon and 30h+ painting chill master

Conflicting feelings: I chose one of the slowest mediums possible (when making full paintings at least) as my main medium but I wish I could become super fast at drawing and painting so it'd actually be possible to paint all my ideas :'3

... And I also wish I could slow down a lot πŸ˜‚

I think the better question is why were these things sharp πŸ˜‚ the garlic and orange were because of dried parts turned sharp, but I still haven't figured out the trouser one

Yep, exactly! It had dried out and turned razor sharp lol

I'm going to bring up the orange incident again: I've accidentally cut myself on an orange.
