i mostly reblog from @moonlithauntings

about me below ⬇

i'm a queer + disabled artist, and widely considered a silly and strange little guy. i work in live theatre and teach art from time to time 🎨

i love art very dearly, and i mostly try to just make art that is fun and makes me happy! i enjoy exploring different aesthetics and i like to see how many formal art "rules" i can break in one sitting, so you'll probably see wildly inconsistent art from me :D

i'm always happy to make friends so feel free to message me, tag me, send me posts, etc! i always love to talk about art, ocs, and my hyperfixations/spins- just please be patient with me, i have very little energy most days :')

I made an animatic for my partner's D&D character, Peregrine! You can find more of Peregrine's creator (my pookie) at @sunlithauntings :D and I'm the Dungeon Master

The story is about Peregrine's encounter with a Nothic who peered into his mind and made them relive their most treasured and terrible memories.

One of these memories was of a Tarot Card Reading from Nona the Diviner, a mentor to Peregrine. Each card laid out both the path of Peregrine's life, and the memories which the Nothic would visit.

Featuring myself singing Steam Powered Giraffe's, Eat Your Heart.

My Tiefling Paladin, Martial Weapon. She is a Paladin of Tyr and acts as an overly heroic symbol of hope. Her understanding of morality is somewhat lacking, but she is very good at finding ways to punch things for good reasons!

>ARTFIGHT2025< When I first saw Stitch I knew I had to attack him, he's such a colorful little guy. He looks like he could be a protagonist in a really cute 3d platformer game. I used blender(to model and texture) with bligify(to render the transparent gif) Silly magic birb - with Stitch by sunlithauntings ( @sunlithauntings ) My profile: https://artfight.net/~Wouas

My advice to every artist (and honestly, everyone, but it’s especially relevant if you want to make art yourself) is to learn to appreciate everything other people make. Especially things you don’t like! Look at weird, ugly, bad art, with clashing colors and weird proportions and botched perspective and tropey subjects. Look at things made by amateurs an hobbyists and children, with shaky lines and incomprehensible detail. Look at everything you might find cringe or unpleasant - look at furries and gore and fetish porn and all the niche fandom crossovers. Look at art from cultures you don’t know well, look at things made hundreds of years ago, look at paintings from art movements you don’t know or don’t like at the museum. Look at photography and sculptures and fashion shows and murals on buildings and the design of everyday objects like chairs or lampposts or cars. Look at animation and comics and advertising, even the design on your cereal box.

And each time you look, try to find one thing you can appreciate about it. It’s fine if you don’t enjoy the art, but try to find something in it that has value, something you can respect about it, something that moves the world. It can be mastery of a technique, it can be the emotion conveyed, the thought it provoked, it can be color choice, composition, originality, or it can simply be the act of creation itself. Even in art that makes you uncomfortable, art that you find disgusting or bland or vile or ugly or just lame. You need to learn to see it. It’s ALWAYS there. Really look for it. Because you can learn from every single one of these things. Ask yourself why the artist made this, why they made it in this way. Wonder what someone other than you might see that you don’t see, if it has a meaning you just can’t grasp.

You will learn about the value of art, what it means to create, what it means to be human. If you can appreciate those things, it’ll reflect in how you make your own art. Not only will it deepen your relationship to art as a whole, but it’ll allow you to jump past the initial instinct to look away and give you the opportunity to notice techniques and patterns that you maybe wouldn’t have thought to use otherwise! You can learn from the masters, but you can also learn from everyone else. Learn to see the soul in art! I promise it’s worth it.
