This pigment started appearing in artist palettes in the 1950s, and was created to imitate indigo. It’s often used to paint the night sky.
I started this piece before the pandemic, and it’s been with me as a WIP through burnout, broken computers and depression. It compelled me though.

I was a comp sci major in college minoring in art, spending my time drawing and not doing programming labs.
I had a professor sit me down during a review and basically tell me that the only thing I was proving was that I liked art but not enough to major in it (my other grades were mediocre).

Have you tried the new Procreate brushes? I was trying to get a creamy, painterly look, but it all blended together into a muddy mess 😅 I still love the painterly style, so I figured out some tricks to make it work!
I made a video about it ~ find it here: www.patreon.com/posts/tutori...

Hate doing this, because everyone is skint, but Oz is the only important thing in my life and I'm too broke to cover his additional surgery. If you'd like to help, please use OZVET20 at checkout on fenrisgames.com/shop for a nice discount or ko-fi.com/fenrisgames if you don't need toys.
Thankyou 💔

Also remember there is no algorithm here. Your quote-posts to dunk on them are helping them out when they can't game the system like they do on other platforms. Don't make their jobs easier for them. Just block and move on.
Remember:
- they DO NOT CARE about your arguments/rebuttals
- they DO NOT CARE about your dunks
- the person running the accounts was specifically hired to drive engagement BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY; it’s the algorithm they’re catering to
This is a game, and to them you are data to be manipulated.
