Do you have an Instagram for us to follow?

I don’t, sorry : ( I do, however, have a twitter where I post lots of doodles and personal junk. It’s pretty fun.

What do you usually use to draw with? What art programs do you use? Do you have any tutorials? I apologize if this was already asked.

I use Phososhop, generally, but I occasionally pull out Manga Studio/Clip Studio 5. I definitely recommend it - it’s pretty different from Photoshop, true, but it’s faaaaar cheaper, and can do some pretty nifty stuff. That’s what I use for my faux watercolor things!

As far as tutorials go…I don’t have anything specific? A lot of it is just messing around with whatever tools are at your disposal and seeing what works for you. If you have a bit of money to spare, Kyle Webster’s impressively large collection of Photoshop brushes are fantastic (the gouache brushes especially are 1000000/10), but the tools PS comes with already are nothing to scoff at, especially if you customize them to fit your tastes. (Also there’s free brushes everywhere.) On the Manga Studio side of things, I don’t have anything specific to recommend beyond the same mess around + customize your brushes thing (it’s always worth looking around, though! I’ve found some pretty good free brushes for MS on deviantart), but I did adapt my faux watercolor technique from this tutorial for Paint Tool Sai.

Thank you so much for asking! I hope this helped. : )

I've been browsing around your blog for a while now, and I've got to say... Your artwork is just gorgeous! I mean the way your artwork just flows and how smooth each picture is... I guess I suck with descriptions but all I can say is is that your artwork really inspires me. I can't draw for anything but your artwork just inspires me to do so. You're great! Keep it up will ya?

Wow, thank you! I’m happy my stuff makes you feel that way, whoever you are~ : )

And hey, if you want to give drawing a try, then go for it! You don’t even have to show anybody whatever you make - the best way to improve is to just keep making things, even if sometimes it feels like you’re not getting anywhere.

On the I beg the earth to let me go, How can you not have this is gospel by panic! at the disco?

I just kinda picked songs based on the sorts of feelings I was envisioning for certain parts of the show? I stopped looking once I had what I felt was a good selection of tracks, so who knows what songs would have worked that I didn’t catch. Just because it’s not on my playlist doesn’t mean I don’t think it’s a good character song : >
