this was made a while ago, nowadays ive gotten more into physical paintings and sculpture ish stuff. i donβt have any photos of those. but i had a phase of digital experimentation a year or two ago which led to this!
i had gotten really into digital illustration and spent basically all my time using a wacom drawing tablet as a teenager. in all of these old self-portraits i always depict myself with a black jacket and some kind of red accessory. what i love here is the lack of any attention to detail and the very distinct vibe this has that is present in a lot of amateur digital art from a decade ago. i've grown quite a lot as an artist since this was drawn and it's fun to see how i viewed myself at a different point in time.
itβs just so incredibly fun and i need a fun break during these frankly apocalyptic times β¦ not as distraction, but as rest and rejuvenation. i miss sophie so much, she truly shaped the world in all of these untouchable ways
