Hi hello I am Alana the ADHD hobby artist from Australia 🇦🇺 who runs Alanaartdream / alanaartdreamaustralia on YouTube tumblr instagram TikTok and Bluesky

And I am very much no ai

And well I don’t get paid to draw of make content

So my posts / videos and drawings will be whatever catches my adhd brain when I am not busy with life and work

And NO I don’t make requests

Also being as there are soo many scammers out there anyone who asks for money or asking for art from me I WILL assume your a scammer or bot or even both until you can prove your a legit person who just likes my drawings and stuff I post about

I work for a hospital 🏥 kitchen so I get pretty busy during the week so most of the time don’t have time to be online all the time but I do manage to draw & sketch something most of the days during the week (( in past would do at least one sketch drawing a day so I’ve managed to train myself to draw just about all the time and that relaxes my adhd brain and oh look I don’t need ai to do it for me; for me drawing ✍️ is fun))

I am a big fan of animation/ art done by human artists

Also like to read a lot and collect things that bring myself joy

Like manga/ grafic novels/ comics

Also books done by writers like C.M.Alongi; Sarah Beth durst and Australian writer behind the Miss fisher murder mystery books Kerry Greenwood

Also also

I rather draw in a silly cute anime/ manga / cartoon like chibi style most of the time :3

Also @reblogalanaartdream is my reblogging blog here on tumblr while @alanaartdream is more or less my mostly where I post my drawings and sometimes talk about books 📚 manga I’ve been reading or anime/ cartoons I’ve watched or things that got my ADHD brain interested in

Was out yesterday and just got this idea to draw Pikmin with a apple juice bottle I had with my lunch yesterday

Also with birthday money 💰 I finally had enough to get a switch 2 to play that Pokemon game where you’re ditto saving an island 🏝️

Or is it recovering a island from its past disaster

Enjoying it so far

With how my health took a nosedive this year I was worried I’d might miss out on some books/manga and switch2/ games but luckily thanks to birthday money i can keep money for medical expenses and use the birthday money on fun things

Also thank you everyone for the birthday wishes this year

Definitely made this crazy year for me better and I am grateful for those of you who have been supportive of my drawings while I’ve been working on my health

Run and moderate a few communities here on tumblr

And got asked about story boards being ok for the drawing artists community

So ended up drawing ✍️ some Pikmin going over their own story boards ideas (although don’t know if Pikmin truly get how story boards work)

My understanding of story boards is they are the ruff drafts to how scenes in the story of a movie/ animated show are to play out; like a ruff guild line for animators and art directors can get an idea of how to make said movie/ show scenes play out

Kinda like a ruff map for how scenes will play out

Very messy sketch drawing of a Pikmin bloom Balinese Craving Pikmin

Still on the hunt for the ones I am missing in the game but through I’d try to draw another one of them for luck 🍀

My very tiny collection of sylvanian families

Celebrating my birthday with family today ( we all get busy during the week so weekends are went we can all get together for holidays and birthdays)

So here’s some of today’s drawing ✍️

Also found some cute sylvanian families cuties today

[alanaartdream]

Some drawings sketches I’ve done pretty late or early before falling asleep and getting up until late

A proud heart cat Care Bears cousins with a Pikmin

A tiny cute monkey with a huge pencil ✏️ and a magical two tails cat (kinda got the idea for that from Japanese mythology where if a cat can live to 100 it gets another tail and becomes a yokai; not 💯 sure the details of that myth but through its cool so wanted to draw a adorable chibi version of that)

Had some space with drawings I did for my birthday this week so wanted to draw something to go with that

[alanaartdream]

Got this cute cat pen 🖊️ (and some earrings) from my mum for my birthday 🎁 yesterday so for today was trying to draw the pen with my cartoon chibi catgirl version of myself and a blue pikmin with the pen 🖊️
