year of art - 2025
What a year. Some of these pieces feel like forever ago. @@ I also forgot what my resolutions were so I had to go back and check lol.
use up my non-cotton paper? I finished one sketchbook and made a dent in another. I've been using more cotton in general, which was the bigger goal, so: half-win.
use different mediums? another half. The fountain pen ink was very new for me and I'm doing more gouache.
more plein air? I've been painting sights in my area and abroad, and it's really cool. I'd like to do even more, but this was a total win!
make more art and have fun? I did have fun.
My goal for 2026 is more measurable (and singular). Complete 100 artworks. That'll include plein air and RL projects, so I won't actually post 100 things here unless I suddenly get a glorious amount of free time. It should still be a lot of fanart if I can do this though.
I want to use what I've learned this year to work faster, looser, and become more comfortable with casual pieces between the stuff I spend days meticulously painting, you know?
Thank you as always to everyone who encourages me. There are some of you whose usernames and icons are really familiar by now and it's fun seeing you throughout the year. Your likes and tags and just general friendliness on tumblr and elsewhere make this a fun community to be part of! (Especially on tumblr tho~)
Wishing you all the best in 2026 🎊
Whumptober 2025 #1-16
As much as I like the idea of finishing a whole month for an art challenge, I like doing detailed pieces more. So 16 is better than last year and that's enough for me! Plus I got to try a lot of different ideas and techniques. It feels like good experience all around, and I'm really proud of some of these paintings! (‾◡◝)
are you okay with people using your art as profile pictures so long as there's credit? your work is absolutely STUNNING and i wouldnt want to disrespect it if you're not comfortable with that!!
Sure, as long as it's not for commercial/AI use, feel free to use my art however you want. It makes me happy that someone would like it that much! ^_^
The truth is I always want to ramble about art techniques and supplies, but someone asked so I do have an excuse this time! ♪(´▽`)
This month I'm painting with fountain pen inks and regular household bleach. I use just one of my two inks per piece so the color palette stays really limited.
Diamine Earl Grey can separate into blue and pink when mixed with lots of water, and Parker Quink Black can separate into blue and yellow (but my example doesn't show it that well). The separation effect goes even further with a tiny drop of bleach added to the wet paper.
Bleach is too strong on its own and usually just turns everything white, but when diluted with water, the bright colors start to show!
Gemstone Prompt List
Stumbled on this chart and it's been a while since I did a prompt game so... Send in a rock and characters/ship from one of my fandoms and I'll paint something inspired by them!
I LOVE YOUR ARTS ✨👏
And sorry for spamming but the watercolor has so much emotions to it, and the characters’ expressions are spot on 🥹
I especially love the #headpatforsatoshi one! And Riku with shadows! (That’s was so smart XD)
Do you mind if I use the headpat as inspiration for a SatoRisa fanfic I’m currently working on?
(Will tag you once i’m done ^^)
By the way, thank you for blessing us with all these beautiful arts!! ❤️❤️ I’m so happy to still be able to see such pretty DN Angel art after all these years!
I hope you can continue to create more!
Thank you so much!!! (ʃƪ^3^) Your spam and message made me really happy~ I try to capture the characters as closely as I can (most of the time? lol) so your words are really encouraging. 💕 I have plenty more paintings on the way too!
Also wow, the headpat series... so nostalgic~ You can definitely do whatever you want with the idea (and any other idea on my blog). I'd love to see what you write with it! ^^
year of art - 2024
DN IN 2024??? Sorry, I had to~
I think I actually met my goal of more complex compositions this year? At least during whumptober! I had a lot of fun with the perspectives and muted colors. I also worked through a chunk of my collection of… decent papers. I can finally admit to myself that the nice paper is never going to happen until I have no other choices. xD
I've gained some decent gouache EXP on the side too! I hope I can show that off soon! 💪
art goals for 2025:
use up my non-cotton paper fr fr this time!!
more medium variety with markers, pencils, ink, and stuff
more plein air. I did a few irl pieces this year so I'm sloooowly getting the hang of it
but mostly i just hope to make more art and have fun! 🎉
Happy New Year!!
