A piece I did today. Today was a huge struggle.
I did an entire group project this mornig in 2 1/2 hours, sat in class and did the sketch of this piece. Voldemort was out and made all three tasks very difficult. He insisted on sitting on my finger as I typed, and then got upset with me as I had to use it to type, and of course he was attacking my pencil while I was drawing.
The screens, stress, and bird screeching gave me a headache. After lunch I immediately jumped into another class and did the ink on the piece, class ended early and so I was able to lay down for my now migraine before having to meet my group for yet another class. My alarm went off, I drug myself out of bed and turned on my light and nearly collapsed from pain. Put myself into the Zoom room for my group and sat there. Alone. For 20 minutes. Gave up on them and laid back down until the need for food pulled me up again.
Between food, water, laying down, a bath, and two rounds of pain meds, my migraine is now back down to a sharp headache. Man, I did not miss these days at all.
Corruptober Day 5: Notes
@zrex-utau
After years of putting up with her lover’s abuse, one woman snaps. And so does his neck. She frantically burns all evidence of foul play through the years and wears the mask of the loving partner, as she had done for years.
Attempt number two at a person. I like it!
in case i havent made myself explicitly clear before:
this blog is 100% supportive of trans women and trans lesbians
This piece took forever. 3 episodes of The Walking Dead, and about a 1/2 hour test run of my boyfriend using Twitch to stream KotOR. The game being so old means we have to find another means to stream though.
I’ve been doing longer pieces lately and it’s been really good for my mental state. It shows growth in my mind and art. Being content to sit at my desk for hours at a time working on a single piece shows me that I am improving my patience and attention span. I am no longer doing 3 pieces in a 2 hour span in class and wondering when the hell I can stand again and let my hand stop cramping. I’m also focusing a lot more on detail and technique than I was before, and of course, adding color is helping me like and enjoy doing my art more. I like the outcome of black and white pieces, but the boldness or the color and the neat lines means I like my art more once it’s finished. I do need new colored pens and markers tho
Wishing I had more color options. Eventually I will. Even so, I like how it turned out.
My boyfriend convinced me to start sharing my art, so here it is! I’m a neurodivergent artist and writer who goes by either Ray or Drachen | 22 | self taught |
