ok this might be why i failed at social media because i apparently had that set so no one could message me😅 try it again, see if it works now!

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 28

ah i did delete it! i was getting a bunch of spam calls that were driving me nuts

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 25

anyway, not necessarily a pity post, but a random train of thought

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 25

even now, i don’t think anyone comes back to look at work i’ve done, commercial or not, and i kind of just post to the void. it just hit me as i was looking at everyone’s art being shared, “wow i don’t think i ever made anyone feel like this” and i just wonder when i lost that or if i ever had it

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 25

i also find that you don’t really get hired for the projects that suit your style, so in reality it’s just better to show you can do a range of things early on. tbh, i’m not sure any of my takes on things ever stood out, and i probably wasn’t really suited for commercial work!

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 25

i think when you’re starting out, you often get the advice to draw what you love, but that only really works if you’re keeping it as a hobby. you’re not going to be your only client, so at some point you have to branch out and do things you’re less excited about.

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 25

y’know, i don’t think i’ve ever made art that resonated with people and i think it’s why i could never get a long term career in illustration. it makes me wonder, could i even do that sort of thing? i dunno if i even have the capacity to evoke that sort of feeling!

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 20

ok i like it so far! the kids are cute and the story’s really interesting! i think it’s being subbed as a weekly batch which kinda helps with the pacing instead of watching it daily

I just launched a free service to discover illustration talent. Handpicked with an art director's eye, unbiassed and including direct links to the artists so you can immediately contact / commission them.

i was new to the asadora format and i like it! at first i was like “120 episodes, oof” but they go by so quickly so it’s not too intimidating! (plus it had masaki okada so i had to😍)

i’m downloading anpan now so i’ll let you know how it goes!

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 17

i really enjoyed this one! sairi ito’s so good in this. i want to start watching Anpan

i wish i had talent to offer to apply at @remedygames.com, they’re clearly a team with a lot of love for not only the work that they craft but for the audience they’re crafting for. i’m glad this found me at the right time when i needed it.

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 6

anyway, i just felt like wandering around and shooting enemies to try and release some stress but for some reason by the credit roll i was crying lol. in a strange way, it felt like finally being heard. (also i think the songs got me, so good job on that one)

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 6

my day job is like that, it’s draining and demanding and they certainly don’t give a shit about how hard the art process actually is. the burnout’s taken a toll on me both mentally and physically and it’s a lot like living in a fog

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 6

this is silly, but there’s something about a haunted house of monstrosities of mangled ideas and the exploitation of artists and creatives by these two scientists who couldn’t give a shit about the artisic process that as a failed artist, it BROKE me

amanda🍡 @thresholdkids.bsky.social · Apr 6

i had put off The Lake House dlc for Alan Wake 2 because i’ve honestly just been having a really hard time both at home and work lately and it’s been hard to find a moment. anyway i just started it today and finished and man, that was so satisfying

David Bowie Life On Mars?

What can be said about the incredible Jennifer Dionisio that hasn't already been said by various journalists, collectors and critics? She is among the finest illustrators at capturing the heart and so...
