A gouche painting of the lovely Billie Eilish for my buddy @phnxvision on instagram

I havent painted in forever, and gouche has been a couple years. I knew acrylic would be harder to jump back into, especially for this piece.

It was a lot of fun, even while being a challenge. It took like 5 days, with me working anywhere from 4 to 7 hours a day, to make this. Each photo I took was after a major break.

If I packed my supplies I grabbed a photo.

I gave it many layers of clear enamel, so the gouche should be safe safe on a canvas.

[strike-another-match]

day 2 of no addon approval. come on all it does is style <p> elements... the humble styler...

[strike-another-match]

ITS APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it's an accessibility tool i made for myself because i needed it, which basically lets you focus on one sentence at a time as you read large blocks of texts (books, articles, etc.). it offers different highlight styles, some of which use gradients to help guide your eyes from the start of the sentence until the end. you can move forward and back pressing the buttons or using ALT + left and right arrow keys if you use it and you find it helpful please tell me about it so i can have the motivation to keep improving it. i love knowing people use my tools

[ID. Two gifs of the accessibility tool in action. They highlight one sentence at a time for ease of readability.

The first gif shows the tool cycling down the paragraphs, from sentence to sentence, in a thick yellow highlight.

The second gif shows the different highlight styles such as; a thick yellow, a thinner yellow, no highlight at all, a gradient highlight, blocky tri-color highlight by line, and colored text by line. End ID.]

I’m a college student struggling with brain fog due to medical issues, I’m definitely going to try this out next time I’m working on one of my reading heavy courses :) a lot of my books are accessible via some website cloud thing on a browser because owning things isn’t real anymore. this looks like something that will really really help me.

[depresseddisneyprincess]

reblog this if your blog is a safe space on april fools and won’t have any jumpers, screamers, or anything scary or anxiety inducing

[the-liars-art]

Fuck yeah this is important

[pocket-mosaic]

My first video is out!

I did quite a lot to make it cool, even though its still a speed draw.

Eventually I'll speak, but that is a whole other wheel barrel.

Check it out if you'd like! Its a nice lil sneak peak into my process.

I gave the sketch colorr~

I also changed some of the outfits. I used this as an opportunity to have a variety of matching hair and clothing to the wings.

I love making hair from flowers, but I think it's too matching.

I do not think I can drop the flower petals as wings either. The leaves as hair is nice too, and I'll play more with that next time.

@danielhowell @amazingphil

Has an ace attorney cosplay ever been an idea? And please if not omg

Another sketch sheet~

This time I choose a random pose and flower to make flora fairies. It was fun and I want to do more wacky stockphotos pronto.

Here's my shuffle, so If you want to check out the photos :

I just use Shuffles because it's easy to link to the photos and edit them all in one app. Any suggestions to better ones are welcome. :)

Process video. Yep.

Listen. My next videos should have better quality or so help me...

Also if you want to actually see my process, I think ima start posting some long form speed paints on YouTube. It's hard to capture these full pages in short short videos. That'll be for future work though, I'll have to change my set up a bit.

Sketch sheet~

I am still tryna get comfy with who I am as an artist, so I wanted to do a crash sheet. It's minecraft yes, but more specifically season 10 of Hermitcraft. I'm a bit behind.

Using things in minecraft forced me to be more intentional about shapes as I had to interpret pixels. I think I was still a bit restrictive in how I drew. Mostly just drawing what I saw or what the real life counterpart looked like.

This was fun as always.

Here's another round of Fashion Fauna~

Most of these were requested by folks on Tiktok and Insta, but the first one was accidentally left out of the first batch.

And a lil video at the end of Mouse clocked in at the bakery.

I did some quick edits outside of Shuffles. Just names and photos of each Fauna. Something about including the orginal critter just feels right

The photos used came from-

Uh one of those artist's diary things.

Hopefully I'll keep up with this.

I'm just trying to find how I shade, and here's some of that work. You may recognize a few faces, I was watching YouTube as I started this page.

This was also made a bit after the new procreate update, and I realized I hadn't updated yet 。。(〃_ _)σ∥

Fashion Fauna~

What critters do you want to see next?

This is such a fun and easy way for me to create instead of doom scrolling.

You can find these on my Shuffles account pocketmosaic if you want to play around with dressing these fine folks.
