Point Reyes, CA

February 2016

When we lived in San Francisco, we’d always bring out of towners here. It’s really a fascinating place.

Point Reyes is a prominent landform and popular tourist attraction on the Pacific coast of Marin County in Northern California. It is about 30 miles west-northwest of San Francisco. The peninsula is notoriously windy and prone to thick fog. Dress in layers, regardless of the season.

It’s also near the epicenter of the 1906 earthquake and you can stand on both sides of the tectonic plates. Point Reyes moved north 21 ft (6.4 m).

i understand all that shit about honor and knighthood and solemn vows but “kingslayer” is simply a bad insult. it sounds cool as fuck. might as well call him the landlord annihilator or the billionaire’s bane.

I’ve wanted to make an anti-AI piece for awhile and had this idea over the weekend.

I’m beyond tired of seeing AI embraced by so many local businesses and organizations. It’s so lazy, so ugly, and so unethical. it makes me sick.

Utilizing gen-AI is the ultimate loser behaviour when you’re plagiarizing artists and destroying the environment.

just so yall know

art block is your brain telling you to do studies.

draw a still life. practice some poses. sketch some naked people. do a color study. try out a different technique on a basic shape.

art block doesnt stop you from drawing, it stops you from making your drawings look the way you want them to. and thats because you need to push your skills to the next level so you can preform at that standard

think of it as level grinding for your next work.

As a scientific illustrator- this is 100% true and going to review your basics will fix it every goddamn time. Not only does it keep your skills sharp, when you’re not emotionally invested in the final product of a piece, you relax and your brain makes more/better art juice for you. So, when you get back to that big/important piece? You’ll know what to do and how to do it.

Nothing in nature blooms all year round. Rest, and take care of yourself.

i want someone to put this into writer’s blocks now

Writer’s block means you need to relearn the whole alphabet. idiot.

For writers block- same thing. Do Studies.

Write a description of an object. write the weather today. Write a made up characterization of a random photo of an actor from the internet as to the character they are in that picture. Write a little story about your pet’s day. Write about spilling soup and make it super dramatic and tragic. Write about someone’s day being ruined and make it funny. Write a meetcute coffeeshop AU of two OCs you’d never put together- maybe from different stories. Write them breaking up.

Write a bunch of short stuff meant for no audience ever and super duper self indulgent.

I found out relatively recently that it really helps if I write short fiction surrounding the novels I write. Like oh? I’m stuck for a bit? Ooh there was that section I wanted to explore but doesn’t fit in the plot really. There was that what-if that could never happen in the actual story but would be fun to explore. It keeps me in the characters’ headspace (tho that’s not always what I’m needing) but not right where they are exactly.

Yes! I have gotten past writers’ block multiple times by writing drabble collections. Making something coherent happen in just 100 words is a very different challenge from writing a long story and it also lets me get past plot points that I don’t want to explore in-depth.

I am also going to have to start drawing studies now…

●Time for my favorite girl, yay!

I love Flora. But I always had mixed feelings about her believix. I like the idea of her clothes being made to resemble plants, but she looked a bit too naked and the boots didn't match with the rest

So I took what I liked and changed the rest

this drawing is quite old and desperately needs a redraw and i hope to deliver it sometime but for now here it is. inspired by the lake scene from the first movie.

i also want to do a similar farewell scene in my s4 (mostly) self-indulgent rewrite where Daphne is finally allowed to pass on to afterlife because my girl has had enough (and i don't want her to be revived. let the girl rest).
