Instagram - where all my traditional sketches are

Greetings! I realized the link on my website doesn't quite work. But IG is easy to find profiles, and mine is easy to spell! https://www.instagram.com/angeunge/ <- check it out for my scraps and doodles. They aren't things I would put in a collection like a gallery folder, since they're mostly piec…

sketches, instagram, and beyond

It’s been rough, unemployment. I’m making more art and writing, but less frequently. Some days I just cope with the chores and the job boards. Some days I just manage to cook myself meals and take care of hygiene. My website is slowly getting better, I need to revisit more CSS lessons and figure ou…

VF 2018 Journal coming this weekend!

I had an overall good time at VF this year, some parts better than others, but most of it ended up with being tired as the worst thing happening ! Keep a look out because I'll be writing about the Artists, Dancers, and other craftsman I saw as well as old friends and new acquaintances. Next year I…

Job - Projects - Life

the long and short of it right now: I have a job and i spend at least 25 hours a week standing around and it honestly is nice to be considered worthwhile for just existing pretty much? idk, it's pretty simple. cash register customer service in small single building business with a very reasonable c…

Babysitting, Depression-Apathy, driving I5, any podcast recommendations?

the summer has been a bumpy recovery and to be honest, i'm still enjoying NOT being in school. but even though i'm well supported its still depressing and emotional not having a job yet! and with me arm in recovery still drawing and animating and writing has ben frustrating. health is frustrating.…

im done worrying about whether or not my journals and artwork are 'okay' and put this stuff out there!!! speaking of that welcome to spring quarter, my twitter is full of daily musings and tight updates, but i need to get good on the weekly and monthly shit. gonna start planning my shit by the moon…

LycheeMonster’s avatar

...and there's the end of the quarter

holy buttbags, where do i begin? i guess i will be adding onto this for a while, so check in for updates! i finished the quarter and i guess ive made it. scholastic endeavors have been overall successful, even if a couple things ended up by the wayside in terms of seminars, notes,and certain writin…

First week of school! Oof... but hey, art ahoy

i think i'm finally learning how to do this thing on a regular basis in a timely manner barely while also getting school done. i used to slack off and leave everything to a panicked last moment. god that was awful. not worth sinking weird time into internet truths. been keeping busy but also biking…

its never too far away from home

i believe knowing about even potential shootings is general public knowledge and should not be placed behind an adult disclaimer. today in Northgate in the park behind the Target, some dude ran past us and thru the green, into another yard, carrying a firearm. four police jogging towards you, one o…

art has become something different now. also: art/creation habits!

hey all, school has finally calmed down and i've made it back here. enjoy the long journal! as my absence shows, i think i've become someone who has managed to separate the digital and corporeal realms in their life pretty starkly. in doing so, i've gained a lot of power and influence and lost a lo…

April Showers! new realizations about art, and getting back on track

hey, im just trying to check in more often! weekly check-ins are something i need to do to keep me on track regularly, so that my projects and assignments don't build up and snowball. ~small steps!~ i'm going to upload sketchbook pages here this coming week. i'm drawing nearly every day, even if it…

Fall has ended, Winter is here

End of summer, 2015

wow. im tired. been comic-ing. been penciling. been housesitting, driving, cleaning, reading, mourning, dining, celebrating, cheering, comforting, thinking and barely giving time to myself. feeling a bit lost, a bit unsteady. sleeping has gotten better since i bought a 34$ pillow. i havent slept th…

summertime, 2015

hey all...! i've started to ramp up art again after these last couple quarters, and the last year. a lot has hit my life and quite a bit of it has driven me down. this summer and spring though, I have time to process and time to breathe about not just college but my family, y worldview, and my own…

LycheeMonster’s avatar

hey folks

it looks like Weasyl is indeed becoming more of a gallery, long-term hosting for art. i might be taking down quite a few of my sketches and doodles and leaving this place for mostly finished work. which means it will be indeed more scarce. if you want to follow my sketch blog where most of my sketc…

two full months since last seen here / EVERGREEN

hi! i'm alive. if you follow my twitter you can see more of my life and that kind of junk but for people here on art sites, tadah. ...eheh, that's kind of a testimony to how much art i'm actually doing. i'm not doing a lot. its frustrating. i've been dealing with parts of myself and also just the j…

the things that have happened this winter

this journal contains mention of death, substance use, and intense emotions. ///// this winter, many things happened. my family had christmas, and throughout winter break, my dog progressively worsened in condition and we decided to euthanize him so he would not be suffering through the end of meni…

college

i never thought i would be so drained or so tired every single day. i'm sorry i haven't posted a journal here in probably months. i've been focusing on schoolwork, trying to stay healthy, moving into this apartment, and spending face-to-face time with people. in my first quarter, i was deeply disap…

spring term has been sOMETHING

aha! on one hand it's been refreshing and relaxing, but only scholastically. i've kept a good routine so far with school that i feel much more able to do artwork and work on commissions again, and that's exciting! on the other hand, i have a busier and more committed social life. friends and classm…

a Serious Update

this is copypast from my FA journal page. hello everyone. i say this with as much sincerity as possible: i'm still alive and well. i wasn't doing so well before, and around the time between the last journal post (3 weeks ago) and the end of the semester, i went through one of the hardest times of m…

thumbnails with explicit content: thoughts?

personally it bothers me when the thumbnail contains a zoomed in shot of stuff like genitalia or a zoomed out shot of blatant sexual content. it sexualizes the parts of your body that for the most part just sit there day to day like nothing special (#opinion), and it also just pops up mini-porn sli…

*shoves other journal into the stack* uh hm! well. hello everyone. all 6 of you faithful followers... ehe~ well that's what it feels like... my art output is small so that's expected, but still... only a couple o' y'all ever talk back to me. what's the use of reaching out if nobody reaches back? i…

for about a month or so, I've been living without emotions.

wether it's hormones, diet, the weather, or just the time in my life, i've been walking through my life without feeling very much at all. in the past, i used to use music to bring out my emotions, and it worked really well, but as of late nothing has done very much to me. until i heard rawkz0rz's s…

playing Ico till around 10, then streaming for a couple hours

so this game is amazing. it's pretty much what i always imagined an adventure to be. no elaborate story driving everything, no fancy character designs, just you, a goal, and something to overcome. also the monsters are everything a kid is afraid of: they're not weird looking animals, they're not fr…
