Mwahaha! Thank you again for the art asks! I only have half as many questions, but with them I shall have my revenge! Answer if you dare (or yaknow, if you wanna)!
What's the oldest piece of art you still have? What about the most recent piece you've sold or given away?
Do you use reference? If so, how often, and where do you look for it?
Who's one artist, dead or alive, that you'd like to have a masterclass with?
(Please skip if you'd prefer not to disclose!) Do you have any sensory/perception divergencies (synesthesia, supertasting, parosmia, hallucinations, colorblindness, aphantasia, perfect pitch, etc.), and do they have an impact on your art?
Dang these are good questions, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!
What's the oldest piece of art you still have?
Hrnghhh so... I have only recently started saving my art! I threw my sketchbooks out before I left for college. Honestly though I sucked hahaha so nothing was worth keeping. Hmmm.
This was the oldest thing I could find, from 2018.
What about the most recent piece you've sold or given away?
I think the last commission I did was for @eve-of-halloween ??? Gosh is that right?? No, wait my music commission! I've been slowly making songs for a very cool videogame concept.
I do also draw things for people, a lot, whether they like it or not... nyeheheheh!
Do you use reference? If so, how often, and where do you look for it?
I use reference photos for basically everything. I guess I don't have a great memory for fine details! I mean for example every time I draw one of my Zora characters without looking at their character sheets, I get something wrong 🙄
If it's pokemon, it's Bulbapedia or my Pokemon games. If it's Zelda it's Switch game screenshots or YouTube playthrough videos. I'll normally use my generic search engine for everything else. Wikipedia is handy, sometimes even Tumblr comes in clutch.
Who's one artist, dead or alive, that you'd like to have a masterclass with?
Bill Watterson. This man made comics into fine art. It's so cool how he made people in his comics (Calvin, Hobbes, Susie, etc.) *very* cartoony, but all his props and backgrounds are super beautiful, realistic, and detailed. Gosh I wish I had half his talent.

I don't think so, I'm rather boring haha!
When it comes to music I'm really good at playing things I can hear, but I don't think that's special like perfect pitch.
oooh thank you for these questions! It made me really think 🤔 I'll have to ask you the same...
