Been into paper collages lately! This one is pretty plain but it's inspired by one of our recent choir songs and my director creates such vivid imagery within the lyrics for me. prayer by Rene Clausen, such a strong piece.

This was great last year. At least a handful of people are trying to bring it back this year, and I'm sure gonna do my part.

My comic will be terrible and glorious as the dawn. Can't wait.

saw someone on instagram say “you shouldn’t post your art until it’s good” and that comment filled me with rage so i want to say to every beginner artist or artist who feels their art is not improving no matter how long they’ve been at it. i love you and i love your art and everything you post bears part of you and that is so beautiful. block everyone who says otherwise they are not entitled to freely consume what they rag on.

Imagine thinking that an artist has created art only so that you can look at it, and not to stop their own soul physically clawing it's way out of their chest

Also, anyone who says that art needs to be good or you need to become better and better doesn't know a shit about art.

Art is a form of expression, not a beauty contest. There's no rule saying that art needs to be pretty or well done to convey what it or the artist wants to say. Only exception would be certain commercial art where the employer is looking for a certain art style, for example game environment illustrator or an animation studio designer or an animator. These are paid jobs not your free time stuff you post online.

You don't have to draw with your best possible ability. I beg of you to really get into art and see how myriad it is! How many styles and variations there exist! It's not just realistic or semi-realistic.

Miroco Machiro. All her art is like this.

[janpepperweek]

Less than one week!

Hey everyone! Just a reminder that we are less than a week away from JanPepper week! Here's a quick reminder of the rules, info about posting, and the prompts for each day!

JanPepper week will officially take place here on Tumblr starting Monday, September 4th through Sunday, September 10th.

Rules:

Anyone and everyone is welcome to participate! And it will NOT be required to have submissions for every day of the week. You can share things for one day, a few, or all. That is completely up to you!

This week will not be limited to only fanart or fanfiction. You can post anything you want as long as it is related to the given prompt! Even if it's just a general headcanon, imagine, edit, etc.

Multiple posts for each prompt will be accepted

You can include other characters, just please keep the focus on Floyd and Janice

Your OCs can be used as well if you wish!

If you're submitting a oneshot/fanfic of any kind: if you prefer to post it on another site (AO3, Wattpad, etc.) that would be fine! You can just post a link here on Tumblr in that case.

Please do not post any submissions before the start date (September 4th)

We will be accepting submissions all the way through October 1st. As much as we'd love the posts to be made at least during the given week, don't sweat it if you can't get your post in on time!

When posting:

When the time comes and you are ready to post your submission, be sure to tag us @JanPepperWeek and/or use one or both of these tags: #JanPepperWeek #JanPepper Week as well as the day using: #Day (number) to make sure that we see it so we can reblog!

Prompts:

(The descriptions here are NOT what you are required to do. They are solely there for ideas! As long as your post(s) go along with the prompts, that's all the matters!)

September 4th - Day One: The Beginning. Could be how their relationship was first initiated. Or maybe their first date: how do you imagine Floyd and Janice's first date went? Where did they go and/or what did they do?

September 5th - Day Two: AU (Alternative Universe). We've seen a lot of people have fun with these and the band. Have as much fun as you want with it! (Other franchises are allowed for this!)

September 6th - Day Three: The Perfect Afternoon. Floyd and Janice spend the perfect afternoon together. How do they do it?

September 7th - Day Four: Behind The Scenes. Think about your favorite Muppet movie/show. What's something that could have happened between Floyd and Janice while the cameras were off during the production?

September 8th - Day Five: With Their Instruments. This one was probably expected. Something of Floyd and Janice with their instruments.

September 9th - Day Six: Pastimes. How do you think Floyd and Janice would pass the time together?

September 10th - Day Seven: Memories. Maybe they're remembering their memories together or sharing memories with each other from before they met? Or looking through old pictures?

Feel free to comment or message us with any questions!

We're excited to see everyone's posts!

See you on Monday!
