ouu she's so pretty, i love the silver/irdescent vibe, the shading is so good!

all very great but the first is def my fav🫶 also the colours are so vibrant, i love!!

Sometimes I feel unsure of myself, while other people go around in 2026 claiming to have invented the Afro

oh she's stunningly georgeous omg

i really need to do more research on movies before watching them because WHY is EEAAO sci fi!?!??

i dont doubt that it gets more deep and profound later on and i would love to see that but i cannot take the sci fi srsly prob wont finish it

A drawing of a realistic dog wearing a tie saying; "I need to lock in and prove that I am capable. I need to be taken seriously." While a drawing of a cartoon dog says; "I need to stay silly and whimsical lest I lose the very essence of myself." Perpetrating an endless cycle

Endless cycle

progress check!

struggling through this one, the colours on the ref are hard to capture plus the brain fog and laziness has been loud

OMG I LOVE THISSSSSS
SO GOOD🫶

ouuu pretty

purpose of this thread? none lol just spewing my thoughts cuz why not
anyway follow my tiktok 😁
www.tiktok.com/@rissarts?is...

so after april i'll go back to just posting whenever and i'll mainly focus on finished pieces/timelapses and edited progress vids with occasional trends that i want to partake in
mkay that's all thanks for coming to my ted talk :)

overall it didn't stress me out just cuz i always had content even tho some posts were low qual also i do enjoy creating vid content bcuz i also do video editing
but posting daily makes no real difference if it's not curated to the algo
and i don't intend on creating for the sake of engagment 5/?

cuz i'd randomly get a steady 500+ views per post then randomly fall back to 200 views and then i'd spiral trying to figure out what i did but really it's just random most of the time esp if you aren't playing to the algo 4/?

it wasn't hard to keep up with daily posting cuz i often record bits of my work so most of my posts were 7sec vids with relatable/meme/trending text which almost always did better than my actual art posts and that sucked lol
it also sucked being more aware of how fickle the algo is 3/?

i had a few micro viral posts but overall i can't say it did a whole lot? i don't think i've even gained 100 followers

likes and views are up but that's cuz i've posted more and when a post got less than usual i double posted but i nvr changed my content based on the algo (it was tempting tho) 2/?

later this month will be 1 year of posting daily to tiktok (-1 day they restricted my post)

it wasn't intentional at first but i decided to stick with it for the challenge
i saw some growth mainly in gaining a smol audience of consistent followers and non-followers who interact with my posts 1/?

vibe coding except there's no coding or AI involved and it's just me staring at the sketch long enough for my brain to determine what mixed media materials i should use

maybe it's because i have naturally non-prominent eyebrows but i occasionally find myself well into the portrait drawing process before i realise the thing that looks slightly off about the face is that i didn't draw eyebrows!

anyway new portrait wip

sooooon (def no later than may🫣)

yuppp that was me for AF last year🥲

tendons in my drawing hand are flaring up
banged my knee ridiculously hard into my bed frame
...
methinks i skip a portrait painting for today and just watch greatest showman tiktoks instead 🫠

digital portrait painting of a smiling black guy with locs, his eyes are closed and he is holdimg his right pinky against his teeth

...i think i need to sit with this one a bit but overall...i think i like it

the hand is a little awkward
i think there's maybe not a lot of variation with the values except the teeth but also i think it's cooler that way? draws more attention to the smile

#art #artsky #digitalart

need to hop back on blender but i fear my lazy ass cant be bothered to pull out my laptop when i can just grab my tablet and draw instead🫠

progress check
the colours are kinda throwing hands🫠 but im trying my best™️

portrait painting practice so far
the first (top left) is objectively the best i think which is crazy because that means i've gotten worse not better LOL
however i did try diff brushes for 2nd and 3rd and didn't copy one specfic ref for the 3rd and 4th

portrait practice of the day
oc belongs to CreepsNStock
working on trying to create semi realistic portraits of like 2d oc drawings if i'm explaining that well
took me abt 1-1hr30
pleased with the shading but i'm still struggling with proportions and such

ive heard it gets better past S2 so i had been trying to stick it out esp cuz im just in it for maraceline eps but my main issue is that at times finn's character is indeed a very realistic 12 year old boy and the tantrum/whining irks me so much lol, it's like why would a kid be there😩
