Flutter Hearts Kickstarter launch!
Hello lovelies! I know I’ve not posted in ages, but I released something really exciting today, and I thought I’d share in case any of you still follow me on here ^_^
The link to the campaign can be found here
I really hope you’ll follow along for the ride!
Day 4. Wasn't actually going to do anything for today because I'd been feeling so low. Not ready to give up yet though! Keeping with drawing small things. Used #drawlloween 's #tentacletuesday prompt.
Day 3! Borrowed the prompt for #drawlloween today so have a fuzzy alpaca doing his best to take part 😜 #inktober #inktober2016
Day 2! What better subject than #elvira ? Today went a bit better because 1) Im not in Belfast anymore =P 2) my tendonitis wasn't as intense today. Felt really good to draw something I loved!
#inktober2016 has finally begun! Not what I had in mind for day one but I still can't really draw much due to pain. Hopefully as the month goes on I'll heal and dish out better things 😊♥ (at Belfast, United Kingdom)
Ever wanting to see the painting process for Citrine? Now's your chance! New Watch Me Paint episode up on my YT channel! https://youtu.be/Ac0hdYHM6fA
New art up! Check out my FB for full image 💚💚💚 #spidergirl #monstergirls #eyes #digitalartist #digitalillustration #artistsonig #artistsofinstagram #femaleartist #coffeetime
Hand, Wrist and Forearm Exercises!
Over the past couple of months I’ve mentioned here and there that I’ve been working on strengthening my hands and wrists in general. I figured I’d make a bit more of a comprehensive post for anyone else that might find it useful!
Towards the tail end of last year, I was getting a lot of pain in my drawing hand. I’ve never let it get as bad as developing carpel tunnel, but I was starting to show a few markers. Like a lot of us, I paid very little attention to the health of my hands for a long time. I feel like you can get away with it for many years. Once I hit my mid-twenties though - that shit really starts to catchup. There’s been a few instances where I just couldn’t draw any more and was completely freaking out internally: ‘holy shit I’m going to fuck up my hand’ etc. I had to take time off to recuperate.
I draw a lot. Not as much as some, but with my day job and freelance on the side I can easily wrack up 210 hours of drawing each month. Sometimes less, sometimes more.
I wanted to find something I could do for my hands to combat the problem, rather than rest being the only option. It’s absolutely a given that you should still take plenty of breaks, make sure you’ve got an ergonomic set-up, do stretches etc. But I’d reached the point where those precautions weren’t really doing enough to prevent pain, and they felt like more of a temporary fix rather than a solution.
Now, to the point. Exercises! I don’t really know why I’d never thought of weight exercises to help with the pain, I guess my natural inclination was always to just rest it instead.
Last year I bought myself a 2KG weight and started doing these exercises. It really didn’t take very long to start noticing a difference. My wrist immediately felt relieved from all the stretches, and after a couple of weeks the pain really started to fade. I’ve gradually moved on to slightly heavier weights, and doing this (exactly what’s in the video!) has made the biggest difference to anything I’ve ever done in regards to wrist health.
These exercises really feel like you’re actually doing something to fight the wear and tear on your hands, and I don’t know about you guys - but I want to be drawing until I’m an old lady!
Taking care of your body is so so important. For all my fellow artists who ever deal with this sort if pain.
Reblogging again for importance! I’ve begun having pain in the tendons leading down to my hands, so going to try this out! Just need to find myself a dumbell tomorrow :3 Hands/arms are precious! Take care of them!
Wanna see how this cute mess came about? Head over to my YT channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO7OSLskXcGvI4daLpUnFzw)! 😁❤

Not an art post but damn relevant <3
'Saturniidae'
About time I paid tribute to my love of fuzzy rosy maple moths :3 Really needed to take a step back and do something simpler, so I really enjoyed getting her done!
Pearlesqued Presents: Petite Pearls! Series 2, 05, Peninah.
Last but never least, my mascot Peninah. Fun fact, for those of you who didn’t know, Peninah is actually my first name. I tend to go by Nina as it feels more comfortable, but it just seemed to suit her as my mascot! Peninah is actually the hebrew word for pearl, so in case you were ever wondering how I came up with my brand name, there you have it ;3 Also as a side note, her horns won’t look like this in sticker form! I miiight have accidentally forgotten to shade them properly and only noticed now...
P.S., I promise she’s not some demonsona of mine. We nust share a name <3
Pearlesqued Presents: Petite Pearls! Series 2, 04, Unicorn girl.
I think a part of me will always love any excuse to draw girls with horns, chibi or otherwise =P I really dig her colour scheme and how her eyes and pose turned out. It’s nice making things I can be proud of!
Pearlesqued Presents: Petite Pearls! Series 2, 02, Yokai.
At first I really wasn’t sure what colours to use for her, but I just had a lot of fun with her. As I’ve been drawing these I’ve been imagining all of their personalities and trying to think of ways I can include them in future, maybe make short comics ;3
Pearlesqued Presents: Petite Pearls! Series 2, 01, Satyr.
Onto series 2! Just in case I haven’t made it clear, each series = a sticker pack which I’ll be getting printed and selling on my store soon =] I technically have until November to get them ready, but I’m impatient! =P
Pearlesqued Presents: Petite Pearls! Series I, 05, Spider girl.
Pearlesqued Presents: Petite Pearls! Series I, 04, Belly B.
Eep! Got a bit behind on posting so going to do my best to catch up!
I’ve affectionately named this cutie Belly B because the words ‘belly mouth’ make me oddly uncomfortable =P I’ve always really loved the odea of this sort of monster girl so really happy I got to put her together!
