Slowly trying to claw my way back from being burnt out as hell. I have 3 games I want to stream, zines planned, and a game jam next week. I gotta figure out how to work and burn out proof a work process...

After I finish through this push for Heroescon it is nothing but working on video games for me baybeee. At least til I remember I need to work on seasonal stuff.

Messing around with gouache in my sketchbook to start the day. I'll be back to streaming soon but I needed some time to myself. Though I've been sick for most of it. 😂🫠😷

Had my eyes dialed for the first time yesterday and I was useless the entire day. Couldn't see shit. Couldn't draw shit. It was definitely an ✨️e x p e r I e n c e✨️ .

Working on a sticker sheet last night and I decided to just work on it til I fell asleep last night. You def can tell which one I fell asleep on.

Free will has me experimenting with new acrylic markers and drawing more than enough tomatoes. I thought being able to use Posca markers would be beyond me but apparently that was a silly idea. My sketchbook is full of fun stuff now.

I should be showing you guys work but you get garlic updates today. I accidentally sprouted some garlic after pulling it from the fridge. Because the pollen was so bad outside I asked my mom to put these in a pot for me and they are doing so well at the moment. I might have to thin them soon.

As everything feels overwhelming it is important to realize when it is time to take a break before your body takes a break for you. As I get older I've been listening to my body more and more instead of pretending it doesn't exist. It's definitely kind of working out. 😂💖

Day 9. As I marked it Sunday my guess was right and I'm seeing more sprouts today! All the hot peppers are sprouting, the rosemary is getting taller, and one black cherry tomato has sprouted. Waiting on the peppermint and strawberries.

Day 8 The rosemary, with the longest germination time, decided to pop up first about 2 or 3 days ago. Hopefully will see the others by Saturday.
