Yes, hi. I've been extremely busy for the past several weeks, which is why I haven't been drawing anything. I actually had big art plans for this week, though, but I managed to injure my back doing something extremely mundane and non-strenuous, and I've barely gotten out of bed as a result. I still…
Just a heads up, I'll be doing a raffle when (or shortly after) I hit 300 watchers--I'm currently at 295. This is not a signup post, I just wanted to let you guys know in advance! More details will be included in the actual signup post. Otherwise, how are all of the things?
Ten albums I enjoyed from q2 2015, in no particular order. I’m not feeling especially wordy so I’ll keep it brief. Chastity Belt – Time to Go Home It’s hard to describe exactly what this record sounds like (indie-shoegaze-postpunk??), but the lyrics are the big winner here. At least for me. Alabama…
Well more like everything break but art is what's relevant here-- So I've been dealing with various neck/shoulder/back/tension headache issues for a while now, and for the past few months I've finally been seeing someone about it. Today we think we may have isolated the major problem in the muscles…
'sup. I'm bored and I haven't made a normal journal in a while. At least I don't think I have. The past few months kinda blur together. I'm still working on finding a stable job and mostly subsisting on odd jobs and occasional freelance work. I had an interview yesterday that may actually result in…
I just had someone go through and add/remove a bunch of tags on my submissions, some of which I very much do not want. I can remove them easily enough, but is this seriously something that any user can just do? Is there a way to lock it? Because this is rather frustrating.
We're gonna be best friends. I mean, probably not, but still. How's it going?
I know it's a joke but these are cute as fuck.
It’s been a fantastic year in music so far. The following are my personal favorite quarter one 2015 releases, in no particular order. New Liturgy, Nicolas Jaar, Sufjan Stevens, Modest Mouse, Death Grips, Torche, The Pop Group, Father John Misty, Bjork, and Panda Bear albums not included because I d…
is Uruboros! I'll send you a private message so we can discuss the picture. Thanks everyone else for the interest and thanks again for 200 followers!
Thanks guys! I hit 200 sometime last night, so provided somebody hasn't unfollowed between then and now... I don't want to set many hard rules. Some general guidelines are that more characters exponentially increase the amount of work but depending on the poses/camera/cropping it isn't that big of…
I've gotten a lot of new watchers over the past few weeks, so thanks for that. It's really encouraging. Also encouraging is that I'm only about 10 off from 200, so I'm thinking about offering an art raffle when I get there. I'll post more details when the time comes, but I thought I'd give you guys…
Yeah, yeah. It's one of those annoying tell me things to validate my existence things that I nabbed shamelessly from some people. But it's been some months since I asked for any kind of feedback, and this scratches the whole new year gotta post something itch. In short order: What made you follow i…
2014 was a weird year in music (and games, and movies, and TV. . .) for me. I barely liked anything at all that was released after June, and I actually spent the majority of the year listening to older stuff. Albums that the rest of the world fell in love with, from the likes of FKA Twigs, St. Vinc…
I hope that everyone is having a pleasant holiday season. I also hope that it's cooler where you are than it is here. It's been a while. I've had a mostly difficult few months and have somewhat relatedly been on an extended break from art. But I hope to be working on some new stuff soon, if not lat…
I'm fortunate enough to be in a position where I don't have to take commissions for my livelihood, and frankly there's a lot about the idea of doing so that I find unpalatable. And yet. I recently had to do some design work for somebody I know, and it's the first strictly deadlined "job" I've had s…
I've had several people trying to get in touch with me over the past few days so I guess I should make a journal. I'm not dead I still check this site pretty much daily, I just haven't been doing any art. My free time has been thoroughly invested in replaying old Etrian Odyssey games and more recen…
I've started using twitter a lot over the past few weeks (I've always been more of a tumblr or plurk person) and I know that plenty of artists use it for various things. So if I started a twitter, would people actually follow it? It would definitely be art-focused, I would probably use it to show s…
Okay so you know how kids will do that thing. Where they have a friend over and suddenly they become a lot more outspoken and expressive but in a really annoying way. Like they're trying to be funny and impress their friend so they act out against their parents and are nothing like their usual selv…
Is what I am going to be doing starting tomorrow and on through the weekend. Does that sound pleasant to you because it's not. Vacations in my family are high-stress affairs, especially when open water is involved. And I'm the kind of person who aims to spend as much of a beach trip away from the b…
So a friend of the family passed away recently, and while it's not someone I was close to personally I have been dealing with the fallout of it (including but not limited to some severe drama in the affected family) since a little over a week ago and it has consumed most of my time. But now everyth…
I have a 3,000+ item porn folder, and quite literally the only time it gets opened is when I'm looking for inspiration for poses.
These are less going to be a weekly thing and more a whenever I feel like it thing, but I'm going to try and space them out by at least a week. I haven't been religiously following anime for a while, I tend to just catch a few shows a year that my friends recommend or that I hear about otherwise. I…
Is this going to be the new furry thing? This is going to be the new furry thing, isn't it.
Pitchfork is spending this week publishing a bunch of Best of the Decade (So Far) lists, thereby generating material for insular music nerd debate for presumably the rest of the decade. It’s hard to describe the relationship between music “fandom” and Pitchfork. It’s like something that we hate, an…
This week has been a week where things have happened that I wish had not happened, and I'm mostly writing this as a means to de-stress. But also to see if this conversation journal thing has any potential. I saw a meme go by recently and it seems like a pretty good place to start. The text read: ev…
I'm interested in finding a way to facilitate more/regular communication between you guys and myself. Memes are one thing, but they get repetitive and can be kind of annoying. Streaming doesn't really work for me, both because I don't actually like to draw while streaming (and it makes my program l…
I nabbed this from JimMedicDude Basics Name: Ayvee Nickname: You tell me Age: 24 Height: 6' Zodiac sign: Western is Scorpio, Chinese is snake. All of the sneaky venomous things. Pets: Two 18-week-old cats, at the moment. We also raise cows but that's different... Favorite thing about yourself: I'm…
Because I'm bored and this could be fun (or disastrous). Post assumptions you have about me and I will confirm/deny/elaborate.
So after graduating this past May (!!!), I've moved back in with my parents for all of the foreseeable future. And going from living on my own with my own schedule and no personal responsibilities outside of university obligations to...this. Has been stifling, to say the least. Outside of a job sea…
These are my absolute favorite records from the first half of the year. It’s still in no particular order, but for what it’s worth the first two, Benji and The Future’s Void are my absolute absolute favorites. Sun Kil Moon – Benji Benji isn’t the kind of album that is going to reach out and grab ne…
I’ll probably post a combined list for my favorite records of the first have of 2014 overall, but for the time being these are the albums I’ve enjoyed over the past three months. In no particular order (yet) Andrew Jackson Jihad – Christmas Island It says a lot for a band that an album as manic and…
Free art! The specifics of which are negotiable, depending on what the winner wants. If you're interested just leave a comment here, and I'll compile them and randomly select a name later. Stay cool in the meantime.
I’m making a quick post on my favorite records of (basically) Q1 2014. Let me know if links are busted or anything. Albums that I want to marry Sun Kil Moon – Benji It took a few listens and some devotion of attention before this album really clicked with me, but it’s easily my favorite record of t…

My friend Nialus is in a bit of a bind and is trying to take some commissions. He does really great work, which you can find examples of on his FA and weasyl pages. The original journal entry is here.

I know I'm definitely still getting used to the interface and arrangement of this site, and I imagine a bunch of you are too. Jotaku posted a journal earlier with some resources and tips to get started. That journal is here The noisrut journal they reference that has more technical stuff is here An…
