The inking is done! There's so many lines... 😳 I can't wait to finish it up with color! I hope you enjoy~

Going for a somewhat abstract background on this one and I’m pleased with the results. 😊 Maybe I should do this more often?

It’s been a tumultuous year so far to say the least, and I think we could all use the vibes Jewelia here is emanating right now. If you’ve been following me for a while, you may recognize this art format as my 100 Themes Challenge (See #Crystal_100TC if you’d like to see more related works). This piece took me the longest time to complete so far (at least 7 hours alone on the zentangle-like patterns) though here it is in all it’s glory. I finished it a while back, and I wish I’d shared it sooner ‘cause now I’m starting to see all my mistakes lol. Anyways, there’s no time like the present! Stay safe and sane~ ✌🏼⁠⠀ P.S. See my Mandala Drawing story while you can for the WIP pics. I may take it down next week. 👀⁠⠀ 🔹 ⁠ ⁠⠀ #art #arts #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #draw #drawing #doodle #sketch #dailysketch #sketchbook #illustrator #artwork #mandala #originalcharacter #characterdesign #pencil #pencildrawing #pencilsketch #instaart #traditionalart #digitalart #originalartwork #instaartist #instadraw #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #Crystal_100challenge #artist #CrystalCurie https://www.instagram.com/p/CKQNcApjn8P/?igshid=1czb4e0fnj5tt

Inked it! Now for the fun part, coloring it in. 😁 🖊

I’ve moved out of my apartment and back home with my family. I’m gonna miss my little peace of heaven, my home away from home. Here’s some assorted pics of quarantine college apt life. Last pic is a The Last of Us Part 2 Ellie outfit I put together for fun. 😷🔫🏹✌🏼 (at Oxford North) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDIbShSHZr4GLiNtVkLp5-KtX9CoZlUTKh8pNQ0/?igshid=1xz546dkyu1lw
