Roll Investigation?
So I’m late for #worldgothday but I promise I did take these on that day. I planned on wearing/doing something else but being stuck in my house and confined in southern state late spring weather all I wanted to do was wear a mesh shirt and forget about needing to clean my room. 😅
A little #warmupsketch from class today since I’ve been afk for a long time now. 🤷🏼♂️ Is this still a trend? Who knows. 💕💖 #sailormoon #sailormoonredraw #sailormoonredrawchallenge #sailormoonredraw🐇💖
Yesterday was #transdayofvisibility2020 and normally for trans day of visibility I'd just share a drawing of IX, the only trans character I have.
Transness for me was always extremely uncomfortable and shameful to the point that even having trans characters or talking about it irritated dysphoric feelings because I wasn't happy with my own presentation.
So all I could do to celebrate was draw the one I had, I never shared images of myself or even talked about being trans during #TDOV until a couple years ago when I started to transition. I know this year we're all cooped up in our homes and collectively we're not all in the best places right now.
But I'm in a place where my personal journey and transness is strangely comfortable. And while I'm in my house playing animal crossing I can’t help but think about whether or not my one trans character that I've had for over 10 years now would be proud of me.
I finally felt like drawing me this year. And it wouldn't feel right to do so without IX being with me. Happy #TransVisibilityDay to the character I made over a decade ago before I even knew being trans had a word associated with it. Thanks for keeping me here.
🍂So I couldn’t sleep last night and all I wanted to soothe my insomnia was #newhorizons I just want to play #animalcrossing until my fingers bleed so anyways here’s me as a villager 🤷🏼♂️ #illustratorsoninstagram #animalcrossingnewhorizons #animalcrossingswitch #animalcrossingart #newhorizonsona #animalcrossingsona #fanart #artistsoninstagram
Starting a sketchbook a month has given me a lot of time and space to just kind of draw things traditionally again. I forgot how much I enjoy traditional media. #illustration #dungeonsanddragons #dnd #dice #drawdrawdraw #sketchbook #sketchbookdrawing
Happy to report that after a lot of anxiety and pulling hair I have a brand new signature for 2020. It's been almost seven years since I chose a signature and over that time it's transformed and changed from a circle around my name to a bunch of diagonal lines and zeros. I wish I had come to this signature realisation sooner, but eh. Just going to be happy seeing it on my new work and making a stamp out of it.
