He could never shake the calamity of time from his face, nor the persisting ache of life from his demeanor. Without knowing a thing about the man, you would look at him and think "My God... he survived all that?"
Stage notes from "Lilytooth”, a work in progress
I find the days for which I long the most are not those where I was happiest, but where I had the most before me.
Jepthah in “Lilytooth” a work in progress.
I’m sorry for not posting as much, I’m trying to juggle all my academics while learning my vocational skills (nursing), so I don’t get to post as often as I want to :c Speaking of posting, I have kinda gone on a hiatus on my other acc because of the same reasons. Will try to post more, again, I’m rlly sorry💗

In our journey through life, we often carry the weight of past failures, limited beliefs, and unintentional boundaries that hinder our potential for growth and success. These self-imposed limitations can be particularly damaging when it comes to our careers, as they prevent us from reaching our true potential and fulfilling our dreams. However, by recognizing and challenging these self-sabotaging patterns, we can embark on a transformative journey towards a limitless career. In this blog, we will explore the power of mindset, overcoming limiting beliefs, and embracing the untapped potential within ourselves.
The Power of Mindset:
Our thoughts and beliefs have a profound impact on our actions and outcomes. If we constantly doubt our abilities and label ourselves as failures, we inadvertently sabotage our chances of success. Embracing a growth mindset, characterized by a belief in our ability to learn, adapt, and overcome challenges, is crucial in breaking free from self-sabotage. By challenging negative thoughts and replacing them with positive affirmations, we can shift our perspective and open doors to new opportunities.
Unmasking Limiting Beliefs:
Often, our self-sabotage stems from deeply ingrained limiting beliefs. These beliefs may have been instilled in us by external factors such as societal expectations, upbringing, or past experiences. It's important to identify and question these beliefs, asking ourselves whether they are truly valid or merely self-imposed barriers. By challenging these limiting beliefs, we can redefine our capabilities and unlock the potential we once thought was unattainable.
Embracing Failure as a Stepping Stone:
Failure is an inevitable part of life, but it should never define us or hinder our progress. Instead of allowing past failures to paralyze us, we must view them as valuable learning experiences that contribute to our personal and professional growth. By reframing failure as a stepping stone towards success, we can break free from the cycle of self-sabotage and embrace a mindset of resilience and perseverance.
Cultivating Self-Compassion:
Self-sabotage often thrives in an environment of self-criticism and harsh judgment. To counteract this destructive pattern, it is essential to cultivate self-compassion. Treat yourself with kindness, understanding that everyone has setbacks and struggles. By practicing self-compassion, you create a nurturing space for growth, allowing yourself to forgive past mistakes and move forward with renewed motivation and determination.
Setting Goals and Taking Action:
Breaking free from self-sabotage requires proactive steps towards self-improvement. Set realistic and achievable goals that align with your passions and aspirations. Break these goals down into actionable steps, focusing on consistent progress rather than immediate perfection. By taking decisive action, you empower yourself to transcend the boundaries of self-sabotage and forge a path towards a fulfilling and successful career.
Let me leave this right here...
Embracing a limitless career begins with freeing ourselves from the shackles of self-sabotage. By challenging limited beliefs, adopting a growth mindset, embracing failure as a stepping stone, cultivating self-compassion, and taking action towards our goals, we can break free from the chains that hold us back. Remember, your past does not define your future. Seize the opportunity to create the career you deserve, one that surpasses all limitations and flourishes in the realm of endless possibilities.

This is the intro:
The year was 2045. Gene editing had advanced greatly through the aid of CRISPR/Cas9 and had been legalized and approved by the United Nations. It was being utilized by scientists, doctors, and genetic researchers in order to create a new race of “superhumans,” who had abilities beyond imagination. This first generation was otherwise known as “Generation G,” which led the endeavor itself to be known as “Project: Generation G.” For a few years, people marveled at the work of the researchers. So many incurable genetic diseases that plagued the past could be prevented and therefore extended the life of an individual, not to mention the countless miraculous abilities that could be given to otherwise regular humans.
Then, the unthinkable happened. In 2050, just five years later, one of these revered superhumans burned down a children’s residential school in Tokyo. There were no survivors. It was clear that the deed was done out of malicious intent, and that the perpetrator had accomplices. This was the spark that spread the fire of hate for superhumans among the common people. They were viewed as freaks and abominations of nature who had no place in civilized society. Such was the uproar that caused the UN to outlaw gene editing once and for all, and to eliminate all the subjects of Project: Generation G. They intended to have no survivors left to wreak havoc on humanity.

Hare with young, oil on panel, Henriette Ronner-Knip (1821-1909)
Whoosh, whoosh. This is, now, the time when sun holds its highest place in the sky. this is when you step through the warm field of blooming poppies, lily sprouts, and tulip buds.
On this path of nurturing life, growth awaits you, welcomes vitality. Make a wish for a spark of life. Whether you seek a bountiful harvest, the blossoming of youth or fertility, The path of the hare leads you to the temple. Encounter his effigy. Offer him your devotion. Present your prayer.
When your wishes align with nature’s rhythm, only the hare can satisfy it. Always leave offerings—young fruit trees, tender buds or fresh herbage—to display your gratitude.

Another W.I.P piece of mine. It's a redraw of a few years ago. I tried doing the same picture, the first one turned out okay but I am pretty proud of this one. I love painting realism. I'm still trying to establish an art style that I can do on a daily basis that's quick but I love doing these every now and again.
Mr. Tambourine man

His name is Ipos. He's an animal-type demon, specifically manticore type, from my universe thing I've been working on.
His usual apparence, as you can see here, is humanoid with pointy ears, sharp teeth, and lion mane-like hair 👌
