Anonymous asked: Do you sell your drawings /paintings?

I have an account on Society6 but i haven’t updated it in almost a year. If anyone wants something specific as a print just tell me what it is and if i still have a large enough file saved to my laptop i’ll post it for you.

haleighbees asked: Do you have any Rose Quartz drawings?

I drew some fusions with her not too long ago [x]

I don’t have any finished drawings of just her posted anywhere online. But here is a small doodle I’m okay with sharing!

Anonymous asked: oh my god you are an amazing artist!!! i've been working on my art for a while now and i feel confidant on paper, but i'm having a hard time adjusting to digital. are there any techniques or websites you'd recommend? (btw i draw on an ipad)

You’re trying to adjust to drawing on an ipad. Oh precious child. I’m impressed by your determination tbh. From what i understand ipads have absolutely 0 pressure sensitivity (ie drawing lighter gives you lighter, smaller brushstrokes, drawing harder gives you darker, larger brushstrokes) so that’s probably a huge part of why it’s been tough to adjust. I’ve never tried using an ipad to draw but I’ve tried drawing on my phone before and gave up in two days. 

Assuming you have access to a computer or laptop, it’s worth the investment to buy a tablet that’s intended to be used for drawing. You don’t have to drop hundreds of dollars, Monoprice actually makes some decent tablets for around $40-$60.

If you need to stick with the ipad though, I’d recommend playing around with the opacity of your brushes in whatever app you’re using. When I’m sketching it feels a lot more natural to me to have my brushes set at 30-45% opacity instead of 100%. That way you can layer your lines more like a pencil. I only ever really use 100% for flat colors. Unfortunately I don’t have any specific websites to point you towards. A lot of my digital knowledge just came from playing around in PS on my own and picking up tips here and there from other artists. 

Other than that, it’s just a matter of drawing a lot. I switched to digital art about 3 years ago and it’s only been within the last year that I’ve really felt comfortable with it. Just keep going, you’re doing good!

1. hvngerly​ Oh man, we’re only halfway through Steven Bomb and I’m already questioning this theory. Especially after Keeping it together. But tbh even if it’s not true it’s a fun au so I’m keeping it. I really just want to see more of Jasper, I can...

1. hvngerlyOh man, we’re only halfway through Steven Bomb and I’m already questioning this theory. Especially after Keeping it together. But tbh even if it’s not true it’s a fun au so I’m keeping it. I really just want to see more of Jasper, I can sense the tragic backstory from a mile away.  ò ^ ó And I definitely didn’t get so excited about the new intro that i stood in front of the tv for the rest of the episode and forgot that i made snacks until a half hour later. 

2. Before today’s ep I would’ve told you about how it could be some internalized self hate stuff that she’s projecting. (she hates that she’s weak unfused) but (spoilers) after the gross fusions in keeping it together…yeah. BUT STILL THERE’S SOMETHING UP WITH JASPER SHE’S GOT SOME SECRETS I JUST KNOW IT.

3. crystal-hobbes​ aaa thank you so much! “it just feels /right/” THAT’S SUCH A NICE COMPLIMENT THANK YOU.

4. YES. SO MUCH EXCITEMENT. Oh man I love Steven and Connie. And I love that we’ve had both Full Disclosure and Sworn to the Sword where they both wanted to protect each other. Whether it’s platonic or romantic they’re gonna end up with such a healthy relationship it’s wonderful. But also I’m completely heartbroken over Pearl, poor thing needs some help. 

5. Thank you! uhhh… I DO have OCs but I’m super shy about talking about them and don’t draw them too much. But I’ve been making lists of their personalities traits and I’ve been thinking about being brave and posting some little character sheets of them sometime. (it might not happen until i get back from italy in the middle of july but yeah)
