Hi, I make things and I share things. Thanks for stopping by.

[shymagnolia]

[shymagnolia]

okay so i just got my dream job??? a week after applying to it?? and now i’m thinking….maybe this is the good luck post

[flagellant]

…..not even six hours later i got an offer of a well paying full time long-term job with free room and board in queens in nyc, allowing me independence and a way to escape an abusive situation and an unhealthy environment

Hey so

the last time I reblogged this post right before I got a great job, in a permanent work-from-home position, with benefits, retirement, and a salary literally 3x what I was making before, doing something I really like. 

So you know. 

This might be the real one, y’all.

I could use some luck

[matchamakes]

Sure, why not

[bundibird]

I think I've worked out (part of the reason) why there's been such a huge uptick in folks who don't reblog things on here.

This post has like 14k notes right now, and the tags and comments and reblogs are FULL of people who didn't know about fast-reblog, and -- you guys have been slow-reblogging this whole time!?!??!?!?

In the interests of a) making your lives easier, and b) encouraging you to reblog posts, which is what keeps this site alive, here's how you fast-reblog:

On mobile: press and hold the reblog button. Your blog icon will appear. If you have sideblogs, all of the different icons will appear. Drag to whichever blog you want to reblog to, and release. Job done.

On desktop: hold down the E key and click reblog. Job done.

You're welcome. Now get reblogging.

Gave myself a shorter time to complete this one so I wouldn’t think about it as much. It was an enjoyable process doing it that way.

Tried out a different program that’ll let me not only easily do isometric designs, but also draw with vectors in it. The program I usually use I could only do squares. Being able to actually color pick a color pallet also is a great plus. Inspired by Japanese ukiyo-e paintings.

[matchamakes]

Decided to try out a new program for vector art. It’s really good, has lots of features to make the process faster but the thing is, I actually like the limitations and simplicity of the other app. It really pushes me to be even more creative. Oh well, both have their place I suppose. Either way, here’s a flower present.

Another piece for an art challenge. Cracked snow globes held together by soft ribbons.

[matchamakes]

Being warmed by the fire was always a nice feeling during the winter. Especially when my toes would be warmed up first.

[matchamakes]

A snowman uses parts of its scarf to protect the little flowers from the snow. Even though the flowers have had the strength to survive this long, it doesn’t mean they deserve comfort any less.

[matchamakes]

When worlds flow from one to another, springing forth life in the way.

Everything about this piece makes me smile from the colors to the content. I really do enjoy this one.

[matchamakes]

From your head blooms forth a garden of worlds yet to be seen.

Affection or infection?

Last day of inktober

[matchamakes]

Some blue lamp stands.

[matchamakes]

Shrines above coming for you

[matchamakes]

Shrine of flowers by the well.

Quite enjoyed the way the colors combined

[matchamakes]

When you’re computer is barely holding it together, but it holds on nonetheless

Snowy day at the shrine
