I'm watching @halfmoonjoe.com play Oregon Trail 2 and when I was a kid I would just spend the whole time buying supplied piecemeal before the trip and I think that would be exactly as fun to me at age 42 as age 12
My work nowadays is not particularly fun for posting (yet!) but the one cartooning bright spot is that out store's mascot is a pigeon and sometimes I get to draw her for my own enjoyment lol
Saw this piece at the Brandywine River Museum in middle school and it broke my brain
Art question 🎨 What painting, photograph, sculpture, or piece of visual art has stayed with you long after you first saw it? Not necessarily your favorite. The one that lingered.
I'm back to working with paint again at my dayjob and I feel like I'm back in art school again I haven't worked fully traditional in like 20 years and I am VVVVV used to using digital mockups for everything.... It is PAINFULLY clear I am not very good at this yet LOL
I can tell I'm art blocked not just bc I can't draw shit but bc my brain's only solution as an outlet for energy now is to BUY AND CONSUME
HAPPY PRIDE!! TRANS RIGHTS FOREVER!!
Pride month may be over but solidarity is forever !!!!
destiny i love you the haters cannot extinguish my indomitable human spirit 🎨 #destiny2 #destiny2art
the amount of inspiration i got from you, and by you i mean the devs 🫵 dont let anyone tell you otherwise that the work you did was bad, look at all the art you inspired artist to artist you did something special 🎨 #destiny2 #destiny2art
Working with Poscas every day now is making me love how convenient they are but there are SOOO many gaps in their available colors it makes me crazyyyyy
Magical moment in Maria Hernandez where me and a very cool person realized we were wearing the exact same shoes and touched toes ✨
My new fave genre of photo: pictures taken accidentally when i doubleclick the wrong button on the side of my iphone trying to use apple pay
