Speedpaint: https://youtu.be/oJINYwSz-5E
Been working on this thing on and off. It started out as a vent and it remained as one throughout, but it was probably the most comforting vent art I've ever done. I didn't decide to start recording until a bit in on the lining process since I didn't originally intend to speedpaint, which I'll forever be sad about considering I would've loved to know for future reference what I did to get this perspective to line up as well as I got it to here. This is an angle I struggle with, after all.
I have to say, as well, that during the duration I worked on this I also found myself closer to two people who I never thought I could physically or emotionally bond anymore with. Thank you dudes for sticking with me through this. I couldn't ask for better friends. I literally couldn't. I'm so damn blessed and it is always baffling wondering what I did to deserve you, but whatever I did.... I'm so, so grateful. I don't think I'd have made it through this this time if I didn't have ya'll at my side. And while I've come out of what happened a little colder, a little more afraid, a little more distrusting, I haven't fallen as far as I could have... as far as I would have. And maybe, just maybe, recovery from this is possible.
Thank you.
