Hey, man, c'mere. Listen. Get in real close, this is important.

You're gonna make stuff again. You're gonna make stuff you're proud of. You're gonna make stuff you're excited to share. You're going to feel that overwhelming drive to create, not just the frantic I want to want to you're stuck in now. You're going to have awesome ideas, and you're going to make them into reality. You're going to create again. You're still an artist. You're still a writer. You're still home to the same passion you had before. You'll find it again. It's not gone. It's just resting. Let it rest. You're going to make stuff again. I promise.

LMFAOOOO silly knockout doodle i made for a insta mutual who had a tough day aND AND!! HES GOT EYELINER AND GLITTER AND EVERYTHING BC HES A PRETTY BOY WHO DESERVES IT (i also fucking LOVE glitter pens)

real talk this shit was SO cathartic - this was such a fun doodle/warmup. its so silly and stupid (affectionate) but i really love it bc i was just creating for the hell of it!!!! and i had so much fun too! drawing this just felt very warm and safe and fulfilling - and i've desperately been needing to feel that again for a while.

some additional reflection can be found on my instagram post for this art, but yeah. i genuinely had so much fun AND?? AND I HAD THE CONFIDENCE AND COURAGE TO POST HIM??? TO POST SOMETHING AND SHARE WHAT I'VE CREATED WITH MY OWN TWO HANDS??? LETS FUCKING GO GAMERS?????
