According to Procreate, I made this one on December 30, 2020. Geez, time has really flown since then, huh? I think that’s actually when I got the program for the first time. I could tell by the glitch effect. I thought that was rly rly cool at the time.

Was cleaning up Procreate on my iPad and I found a stack of redraws i did to track my progress. So decided to do another one today off the bat. I think it looks cool but it’s pretty sloppy cuz I haven’t practiced any real techniques yet. I’ll get back to that once I graduate I guess.

Plz excuse the wonky outline 😅. I’m cutting these out by hand before I can afford a proper cutter, but practice makes perfect and I’m certainly gonna practice!

I made my first ever sticker!! It’s way too big and the colors aren’t as bright as I was expecting but I absolutely love it. I have the other three ninja bros with this style printed out as well. Once I figure out the kinks they’ll be the first available on my Etsy shop!!

I’m mostly doing this bc commissions have never sold well and I need to be in a more…active market.

Y’all I’m working on starting an Etsy.
I wanna start selling stickers. And maybe keychains. And mugs. And magnets.
But we’re starting with stickers and I need to find a sticker printer that prints color but don’t cost much. I only got so many coins.

First time using oil pastels. I wrote some notes for myself already but I think it came out nice. 😊

A single image of an orange drawn with oil pastels on mixed media sketch paper. Various notes written by the artist softly critique the ammeter use of pastels pointing out mistakes to take note of for a future piece.

Lowkey excited and dreading this summer since I’m starting (finishing?) my prereqs for the rad tech program. From what I know, these next 2 years will be “the worst years of my life” and if this doesn’t work out I’m just gonna quit college all together.

Pastel Life @pastellife180.bsky.social · Apr 13

Now that that’s done. I wanna get back into drawing ninja turtles

*Misses National Ace Day *Says she’ll draw something*
*Takes a week to start and finish it*
I really really love how this came out. Even if it’s a week late for the respective holiday 🥲. Happy Ace Appreciation Day for all my fellow aromantics, asexuals, and aroace peeps out there 🖤🩶🤍💜

I drew this during class on my iPad cuz I was bored outta my mind. Didn’t listen to a damn thing 😂

What is even happening anymore

Pastel Life @pastellife180.bsky.social · Mar 24

Btw I’m moving to another college to start a radiological technologist program (or at least I’m trying to) bc trying to stick out for accounting was one of the worst decisions I’ve ever made!
