Wanted to do so much more for Artfight than just a measly 2 attacks, but motivation has been very up and down... Beginning of the month was especially bad. There is an attack I didn't even get around to finishing in time, so I'll just send it to the person on Toyhouse as a gift once its done.
if you are struggling to make ends meet, do not like the quality of work, or if it's just too expensive for you, you do not need to buy handmade art. it's okay. if you dont want it you dont have to buy it. that is allowed
Okay finally talking about one of my writing projects in proper: Flagrare. It finally has a title. Idk where I will go with this project but I'll show tidbits of characters and world building here and there so you get a better idea of things. Got refs and stuff to sketch up.
I was today years old when I found out Garageband is on iPad. Until I get a desktop & slap FL Studio onto it, this will have to do. Let's see how much of a pain in the ass this is to learn to use and navigate...
Extremely huge struggle to have a proper mascot that isn't just me (Horizon) cus like, I'm not the only one out of the three of us that makes stuff, but I do run our art accounts. I just don't want the other two to feel left out, you know what I mean? Trying to help us become closer, because its ->
I wonder if those EoE theater showings were near me. Kinda wish I had gone to see it in theaters, would probably even be a religious experience seeing that in fuckin IMAX. I would absolutely leave the theater feeling both shaken and baptized. I need to rewatch it some time...
Played some Meccha Chameleon with friends tonight and I'd have to say this is my magnum opus
I'm 29 today. Made myself a Portal-based cake entirely from scratch :>
Lrt yeah um maybe don't admit to doing fucked up things like that, especially as a justification for using AI. You didn't need to say that? At all??
It seems people are often afraid of liking their own art work due to the worry of being perceived as egotistical or conceited, but you can still love your work and have a huge driving force behind that acting as a love for learning and improving. You can be proud and seek joy while you grow.
I love outliving people who want me dead

I always kinda see it as like...like it's not a perfect Hollywood romance with art, it's like a messy relationship where you get real fucking heated at times but ultimately there is a ' I want to see this through because you mean everything to me ' thing going on.
This is extremely true, even for me and I've been drawing for more than 20 years. I'm still learning. You will also still be learning years and years into it, that's how it is. But rather than let it consume you, let it drive you.
Kim Sokol (Open for Commissions/Freelance!)@kimsokol.bsky.social · 4w agoI keep running into very new artists at life drawing and I always tell them to learn to make peace with the “ugh why is this so hard why can’t I do this” feeling because it will never ever fully go away Even when you have skill and experience and confidence in your work some days are just bad
The amount of people expressing that it’s totally normal to feel like your own work is terrible is really sad to me. Sometimes social media feels like a contest to see who has the worst relationship with their art and I refuse to be a party to that shit lol
I you don’t love what you create, you’re creating either the wrong thing, or for the wrong reasons, its good to be humble don’t get me wrong, but some people have this unhealthy believe that humble and self-hatred are the same thing, and they’re really not.
