I really love the poem and the drawing. The poetry resonates with me.

Thank you so much, Maya. That means a lot to me.
I'm just scanning a bunch of my works, so I'll probably be sharing quite a few over the next week. :)

Here's another I made last year when I got all Existential haha. It's called Nil Omne, which in Latin simply means "everything is nothing". Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Everything on earth with eventually die and rot. It seems negative, but it's not, I promise. It's just an observation and a little drawing that helped to calm me when I was feeling really down. I'll do one and post it some time in the next week and we'll see how I do.

Aha! Hey, y'all. <3
Got my scanner working again, thank goodness. There was a moment there when I thought it was completely gone haha

I made this one last year (this is actually the first person I drew ever, so please excuse the mistakes in the anatomy and the water damage!!) to tell myself I can do what I want to, and I will not stop unless I have to. Here's the poem:
Spoiler
And so I dance
Above the storms
About the clouds
Above the rain
And I will not stop
Until I fall
.
And here's a person with wings:

Thanks for your support, people. Much love to all of you. <3

Hey all!

Okay, so it may/may not be a special person's birthday tomorrow (I was told to not do a shoutout so I'm going to make it a manhunt instead *laughs evilly*) and I happen to have a present for them. Sorry it's not the best - it scanned lighter than the actual drawing and I'm not very experienced with pencil drawings, but here's a lil baby giraffe for the birthday girl!  ;D

Happy 19th to a good forum friend!💕

edit: It's been called by Rui, so I'm going to say HBD to insanipi!!

This is so good!

No really, stop. I'm blushing. :-[

Naw, that's okay. I'm pretty sure German Shepherds don't eat tortoises, so you're all g.

So hey guys! I have some photos for you today, if that's alright. The first one is a rainbow lorikeet, and the second is a grey kangaroo I snapped when we were bush-bashing a while ago. :)
le birb
le kangaroo
There you go!
Now. Can I please rant about these freaking birds? Okay, so rainbow lorikeets are amazing and bright and funny. We have a big backyard and we live next to a reserve so these birds are in our yard basically 24/7. BUT THEY ARE SO LOUD. They make this screeching noise when they get annoyed so when they see my cat sitting in the window they just scream and scream and scream for hours and it's REALLY DIFFICULT TO DO MY WORK PRODUCTIVELY BECAUSE I GET SO PISSED AT THESE BIRDS.
I'm going to fork out on some noise-cancelling headphones soon, I swear.

Okay, thanks for listening to my rant. Hope you like my pictures!
Love you guys. 💕

It's a lemur.
King Julien, just for you guys.
Because you're all stressed, busy, frustrated and homework-burdened people, and you all need a lemur in your lives. So I took a photo of one for you. 💕

Love you all.

edit: Whoops, I never gave a backstory! I was a little bit tired last night.
This is some of what I have begun doing at my psych's request every night before bed. She said that I need to make time for things I love to do, and drawing is one of them. So, I decided to start doing one piece of this at a time every night to eventually create a big mandala-ish pattern. Not once did I open a book or look at another work for inspiration - I decided I would pull every little line out of my own head.
I did this just before dropping off to sleep every night; one time I actually fell asleep on it, so a lot of mistakes were made and many of the mini-mandalas in here are uneven and a bit sloppy. But I'll keep practising, and hopefully, with practice, I can improve. Not just my skill in drawing circular abstracts, but in my mood and what I look forward to in life. :)

Love you all.

Sometimes if I'm feeling really anxious, I'll just get a bunch of pencils and just start colouring stuff in. Nice bright, vivid colours in various patterns. I just found my next one

Found a watercolour of a... umm, red owl I did at the ripe old age of 14.
I was very proud of it at the time.
Not sure what to think anymore, but this is purely for external amusement. :)
since when are owls red??
