5, 10 and/or 14! if those haven't been asked yet!
hello there!
5. Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself
If we're not counting drawing for work I post ~85% of what I make! I don't share most warm ups or silly doodles I do for friends. What's more common for me not to share is my writing! I have piles of feverish poetry and comic scripts lying around- sometimes I'll come back to them and make piece about it to post, but most of the time it's just another outlet for me to get stuff out of my head.
14. Any favorite motifs
Oooooh this is hard... visually... i'm a sucker for anything dark, snowy with lots of delicate lanterns or lights....think The Lantern Bearers by Maxfield Parrish meets old fashioned christmas scenes from the early 1900s. Love it when art feels shiny, warm but not modern.
In a literary way? I enjoy anything playing with the idea of self-sacrifice like FMAB or LOTR! I like to see characters lose and choose to keep going or somehow still find something to fight for. Noncharismatic main characters I think are really interesting to watch unfold. Something really comforting in seeing narratives that are like "things will never be the same but I still want to try".
absolutely had to try drawing this agott
hi! :°) how did you find your art style? what does inspire you?, i love your work, it's really heartwarming <3
oh hi! thank you sm! I hope you're having a lovely day!!
To be honest, I don't think I've found it! It's something that's always been super fluid for me... a mix of my strengths and weaknesses at any given time. Exploring strong linework is probably what I'm "known" most for and I gravitate towards it because I like it! It's taught me so much about myself and my process... I think following what intrigues you and makes you feel joy in finishing a drawing will always leave you in a better position than before. The technical skills and experience will follow naturally.
Uhm.. biggest inspiration is always jazz. Old jazz tunes always give me 10000 stories ideas and make my heart soar! hehe
