Going to make a lot more of these! I have to be honest, I’ve been slacking this summer on painting. I have ideas for sure but the physical strength it takes to sit and focus and hold good form with your hands, arms, and upper back muscles are no joke when it comes to painting. I’ve been working through some physical neck and back pain lately and it’s halted my process. Other artists and painters? How do you cope? Do you also have carpal tunnel in both hands? Do you experience pinched nerves? Neck and back issues?? Or is it just me 🙃 any and all tips welcome 🙏

Trying this again since my last post got reported and the platform took down my first viral video at 166k views 😭😭 why can’t their scanning technology see that it was a digital nipple?!?!?! IT WASN’T REAL YALL. It was a character skin I downloaded and not really me!!!! Anyways here I am sculpting some 3D clothes for my 3D model. Please be kind so I can continue to post ARTWORK and not sexual activities. Gosh.

When I was little I used to believe so hard that there was magic in everything. My thoughts, the wind, the way the air felt & made me feel less lonely. Like there was a force that was hovering around me, guiding me. Like a guardian angel. I stopped believing once I got a bit old enough to feel like I wasn’t in control of my life. Making art was what brought that sense back to me. Creating beautiful things out of nothing gave me the ability to believe again. Like every stroke I made with a paint brush was embedding my own personal spirit into the work so that it can live as an extension of my reality. I am not just me but I am everything I create, including art. It wasn’t until I started really getting into painting that I started to believe angels and higher beings were communicating with me through sparking me with images in my mind and forcing me to paint at any given moment. Later in life I started to doubt that belief and once I stopped doing so many drugs it didn’t feel as potent. Now I’m softer, stiller, and more grounded than I’ve ever been in my life, and that magic is creeping back in. It’s always there. I’m just rediscovering a new way to tap into it. How does art make you feel? Drop a comment I wanna know & also see if anyone actually read this whole thing lol

Encouraging everyone who’s ever thought drawing could be fun to try it! It’s so easy. Just pick up a pencil & make a mark, that’s it. I’ll be sharing more on drawing but remember to be a better drawer is to be a better observer. Skill comes with practice but all drawing really takes is the ability to look at something and think- that would make an interesting drawing. Also I came up with all this content and script and idea without ai lol I just want to make that explicit because these are MY tips and tricks- not some algorithms ;) ok go draw and be merry!
