got the crayola twistables out again. ol reliable. always surprised at how much i enjoy their line quality. anyhow, just another silly essy/hanna doodle while i had their playlist on.

two very different dailies for friday. first, close crop of an illustration i FINALLY pushed over the finish line (look upon my keys). second, dnd session doodle of hen in the rain. can you spot her quasit familiar?

started this painting at my local library crafting & book club last week (ref’d from a photo i took). after the first pass, i was pretty dissatisfied, but i hunkered down today and used my own supplies for a second pass that i like a lot more.

it was a good exercise to do a traditional painting, even if i spent a good chunk of the process feeling frustrated and out of my depth. there was a time when i thought i was never gonna get this looking like something i was proud of, but i did in the end!

monday and wednesday dailies. pax is ping-ponging around in my mind. experimental sketchbook noodling. (almost got these last few pages filled)

bonus, the tuesday daily, which is just my daily journal selfie because i accidentally fell asleep on the couch, under the cut:

weekend dailies. (trying to stay ahead of the game now LOL)

apparently mom mentioned in a letter to a friend that i’ve been struggling with artistic burnout. in response the friend sent me a set of her current favorite pens to help 🥺 such a lovely gesture. so these are all with my new pens! just doodling hanna and essy. hopefully in the act of drawing them i’ll get inspired to keep picking at my manuscript, too.

collection of essy and hanna art from my dailies the last few weeks. been rotating them in my mind palace lately.

Hello I am alive but I got REALLY behind on posting my dailies. Like nearly a month on bsky and over a month here. 🙏 I did catch up on bsky, so if you’re curious about EVERYTHING you’ve missed, check out those links please. i will probably post highlights here but, as you may be able to guess, some of the days have been real sparse for drawing, so there ain’t always much to look at.

I’m still figuring out this whole burnout situation one stumbling day at a time. We stay as silly as we can here in my neck of the woods 🫡

dailies for the 13th and the 16th-19th. putting them all together because they share subject matter! (the journal selfie counts because i had essy and hanna on the mind when i drew it.)

been reading a book with vampires in it which means i am thinking about my vampire oc i created…NINETEEN years ago? that number is scary.

side effect of low artistic stamina is i will occasionally be forced to put lowkey sexy art on main since it’s all i could draw on a given day.

daily for may 15th (last friday): local artificer performs monkey maintenance. (sketching after dnd that evening.)

[humblegoatart]

may 12th and 14th dailies. sometimes i get it in my head to do comic spreads from ttrpg sessions and do i finish them? very rarely. but i START them. and think about them.

[humblegoatart]

for my may 11th dailies, sketches i did during dnd on monday. 🤖

[humblegoatart]

may 9th and 10th dailies— i did the lines on the 9th and color the next day (just coloring counts sometimes)

let pax fly around looking badass. one of many things she deserves.

prince and knight sneaking into my mind for my may 6th daily

[humblegoatart]

on the 5th and 7th of may my dailies were about exhaustion (zeldadog is fine, she was just having some middle of the night noise-related anxiety issues for a few weeks there and it was really starting to unravel me. she’s doing better now though!)

[humblegoatart]

on the 3rd, 4th, and 8th of may i worked on this for my daily. slowly, SLOWLY picking away at an idea for a cool anime opening style tableau for my fabula ultima party

[humblegoatart]

i gotta catch up on posting my dailies. these are for the 1st and 2nd of may (rough and clean)

i read ivypool’s heart this month

my daily from yesterday— i was feelin’ a little bit like i wanted to draw a cool sword swinging pose, so cillian helped. hey! it was even prince & knight thursday! nice.
