I’ve been dealing with my ankle shenanigans :(, good news! Not broken! Bad news, don’t have enough time to finish what I was planning on posting today!
But! It’s okay! Because that means I’ll be able to post it next time <3 sorry bout all the skipped post days. The shenanigans are eating away alot of my time- (they’ve had me on hold for 2 hours- this is insane-)
Anyway! Thanks for putting up with me XD <3 I appreciate y’all!
Hello! Just small post rn! Decided I’d update y’all and say I am still alive! I had a pretty bad week last week, got horrible burnout- and now I’m chilling again!
So I am alive XD, and I shall have art done soon. Just doodles most likely, as I’m still trying to recover from the burn out! Love y’all! Thanks for the patience! And kind words!
I’ve been feeling sick again, and just not feeling well. So I haven’t had much time to genuinely sit down and get something together to post so no art today sorry :/.
It happens tho! That just means I’ll have even more when I post next <3 (I’m trying to push myself to use more shape language in my art! So get ready for that HEHEHEHHE)
Tldr: inconsistent posting schedual until some time in May, learning animation.
I’m probably not going to post as often or fall into a weird schedule for posting, as I’m learning animation, and working on my college portfolio. I will still post as much as I can. And I’ll post my art and animations I make(W.I.Ps at any time in the day, finished posts at 7pm). It will be less often as to not fall into a unhealthy schedule again, but trust me! It will be as high quality as I can consivably make it when I do post! (Still will be hopefully multiple times a week. It just might be inconsistent what day I post for at least a month or two from now, so some time in May I may pick up my normal posting schedual)
Not art but ima ramble about art- Ignore if you’d like.
TLDR: Dyslexic Spoot rambles way to long about art, and such. Wisdoms and such cause I’m so old and fossilized.

Honestly, I’ve been playing around with styles and what kind of art makes me as a person happy. Stuff I can be proud of. I’m probably going to try to really push the limits of what I can do in the coming week or so. To see if I can really develop a style that makes me happy, I’ll implore any artist that sees this to do the same. Ima push myself out of my comfort zone, as much as I’m comfortable doing with my art style. I’m also going to try to not be scared to do something in a piece. And if it comes out bad it comes out bad.
Who cares if it’s cringe, I mean an artist is always going to be their own worst critic. Which is okay, what’s not(in my opinion) okay is if you let that critic take over your love of art. And make it so you are almost creatively paralyzed(or burnout), which is something I’ve delt a lot with in the past.
I mean at the end of the day, no one’s stuck with you but you. So why not do what makes you happy? My opinion on art is that if you’re not happy doing what you’re doing, you’re doing something wrong.(if that makes sense.) wether that be that your making yourself draw what you think people will like but doesn’t make you happy, or heck even doing art at all not making you happy. Taking a deep dive into why you’re not happy with your art(if you’re not happy with it that is) can really help, and it’s something I’m trying to do as well.
Anyway! That was just something I felt like I should say, it’s pretty fun being anonymous online isn’t it?
I really wanted to ask, how old were you when you started to make art and what inspired you?
I’ve been doing art since I was pretty much old enough to hold a crayon lol XD.(I’d show some art from then cause I still have it but I don’t wanna go dig in totes rn- old old art from baby Spoot) Art is just something I’ve always loved, and my comfort. It feels like I was just made to do it.
And for the second question! DRAGONS!!! I LOVE DRAGONS- I remember filling up sketch books with dragons, and similar creatures. That was(and still is) my special interest XD!!
Thank you! I appreciate the question!!! Thank you so much!!!
