its_just_kate UGH YESSSS i read it and knew i had to make a piece about it. this is actually a self portrait believe it or not! i'll have to post the finished painting here soon π«‘
in art class i needed to draw a portrait. just fucked it up completly. like absolute dogshit is what i drew. i was so fed up, i knew i could do better. when i came home i decided to just sit down and do it again. i was so surprised to how close i got to the reference i chose. still got a B- for my og sketchβ¦
wanted to make a mace out of one of those spiky seed pods, and put it stretching down the outside of my arm so it would bend and move with my elbow. what do we think chat?
it really sucks to lend a lot of time and effort to something, only to realize it doesnt light you up as much as you thought it would.
that just happened to me. however, it means i have more energy to put into the things that make me feel good. :)
