Woke up and took 20 minutes this morning to do a quick painting practicing doing digital with traditional acrylic technique. I meant to do a lot more studies and practice yesterday but got side tracked. Tomorrow though is another Adderall day, and non distractions then!

A French accented sorceress i was playing in a one shot recently had back to back unintentional puns and it broke the party and the DM

one of my go-to places for finding references in the wild is random fashion websites, usually have decent lighting and simple poses with some unique clothing, collected a handful of things to practice on this morning, good for thumbnail practice

It's remarkable to me how different painting on adhd meds is vs off. Even doing one of these would take me a week of finding the time and energy. I did all these in an hour. Just random practice of blocking in shapes and colors, essentially paint sketching to keep it fun #painting #practice

As a Christmas present to my SO, and because I had a minor operation and was couchbound for a week, I made a portrait of my SO's first ever D&D character using a reference from @trueref.bsky.social , really pushing myself to see how much I have learned over the past year.

Back when I played #Signalis the first time in March I ambitiously thought to make an OC and do a painting project of them with each of the canon Replika models, but I only got a few into it before the ADHD deviated me to other pursuits. One day I think I would like to retry it though

Spend time making up a clockwork soul sorcerer with a wasting sickness that is slowly replacing their body with mechanical parts, accidentally create a combination of Edward from FMA meets Korra from Avatar. Whoopsie

Pair of warlocks. The peacocklock was my SO's for a one shot. The other is my back up character in the event that my current character in our long campaign dies. Slowly getting more comfortable sketching with color.

Finally got my adhd meds refilled. 3 weeks wait for a 30 day. Good thing I don't need it daily so I can ration it for the next long backorder but really, this is not okay. #adhd

Something I love about ADHD is I listen to music most of the day, oscillating genres depending on my mood and creativity, and then sleep listening to playlists of similar or the same songs. As a result I frequently have vivid lucid dreams which results in a lot of my most creative concepts. #adhd

Because I just finished the latest episodes of Arcane and I'm in my feels about it deciding to post the painting that was the most emotional for me for my DnD campaign.

Shameless promotion post if anyone is interested in my brand of creativity:

- random adhd inspired creative thoughts
- macro photography
- incredibly inconsistent art posts
- emergency management trained advice
- nerding out over things video games have taught me

Something I have been doing this year is creating auto palettes from photos of plants and stuff from my yard this year, since we now own our first home. Going to try and do some paintings in Dec/Jan, one for each month with the goal of using the entire palette in the final piece. #palettes

I've got nothing impressive to say, I'm just a lad here to follow and adore artists' work, maybe rarely share my own, and shamelessly steal memes. That being said, remember that all this exists far away and what matters the most surrounds you IRL. Take breaks, take breaths. Don't drown.
