The only REAL reason I wanna become famous is so that I can recommend things I like to people and they'll listen and then I can talk about it with reckless abandon It's been 24 hours and I still can't stop thinking about Undertale and it's only like 8 hours to play through it and it's 8-bit and so simple and MAN I can only hope I create something so thought provoking and touching in my lifetime if anything at least listen to the music (look it up on Spotify here are some of my favorite songs: Heartache, Bird That Carries You Over A Disproportionately Small Gap, Spider Dance, Finale, and Asgore) Also have I mentioned how beautifully it utilizes video games as a medium for storytelling wowo

Was doodlin' mindlessly while waiting for emails when the doodle turned into Faith (@bearpawpaw) ^o^ She also embroidered me some adorable flowers, so. I dunno if she has a watermelon sweater but she should get one (unless she hates watermelon)

Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam This morning's warmup! I don't really have a very close relationship with either of my grandmothers, but I respect them for everything they've accomplished (and love them for their warmth and amazing cooking). Sometimes I wonder what it'd be like if I didn't have as much of a language/cultural barrier with my family members, but I'm still very fortunate to have them here, in the US, at all.

Understanding how to put clothing on a quadruped animal is a feat in and of itself Here is a doodle I did to try and shake myself out of mid-day sleepiness and I guess it worked about 60%

Good morning, Facebook! Still doing these simple warmups to try and simplify my style/create better focus on narrative and acting. Maybe I'm getting there, I dunno — but it's getting a little easier every time. I'm super inspired by vintage photographs involving weird animals and people from the early 1900's, however

[artofserenawu]

more story-ish art. I dunno what’s going on between these two, but

[artofserenawu]

sometimes I wonder if I was born in the wrong time period because I legit obsess over vintage photographs

[artofserenawu]

Trying to focus more on narrative and story. Here’s a sad violinist~

I was never a huge fan of her in the show/books until this season, but now that she's less goddamned OP, she's more likeable and I can't wait to see how she gets back on top. I mean seriously, the difference between Melisandre last season and this season, she used to be all, idgaf about the cold, here are my boobies..!! And now she's covering that shit up because she's questioning her own faith in this all-powerful god?? She actually feels COLD?? WHAT WILL HAPPEN
