Another scribbly scrawl of an unnamed cosmic being. I hesitated posting this one in here a while back because it didn't feel "good enough". I've been thinking a lot about what "good enough" means lately, and well, I decided to post it anyway.

Just a little charcoal experiment.

It has been a good long while since I've drawn much, between life being busy and energy being low. It feels nice to get back into it.

Almost didn't post this one because it felt both unfinished and resistant to finishing, weirdly. But I still liked it! I've had fun with these quick doodles, but maybe my next one will be back to watercolor. I have a hunger for experimenting.

Another scribbly pen doodle. Not entirely sure of what or why, but I was feeling particularly lonely before I drew it. The sort of odd loneliness while amongst friends, you know? I got to thinking, sometimes you just have to embrace yourself as a friend, too.

IA! IA! Cthulhu fhtagn!
Really though, trying out the scribble method of drawing and shading with ink was pretty fun.

Larval Trust: Sometimes it's hard to trust in the unknown. To take that leap into the abyss. But eventually, it must form as a blinking larva, knowing that it is connected to the womb of grander things, never apart from that unknown

Oh the irony. I posted this piece a couple days ago, harping on about the difficulty of sharing my own art, and how I find it motivating to think even one person may enjoy it. And then I forgot to add any tags! I'm embarrassingly new to bsky.

For all of my watercolor and colored pencil experiments lately, I think I'm still most comfortable with graphite. This one was fun.

Sometimes, the words don't come but the images do. Sometimes, the images don't come but the words do. Sometimes it's neither; just a grasping feeling.

This one was a troublesome beastie to put to the page, with an initial failure, but it got there in the end. I wasn't initially going to post this one, but it kind of grew on me. (Not literally, I don't think...)

Graphite drawing from time back. While I've been trying out watercolor lately, I've always been more comfortable with pencil or ink. It's still my comfort zone.

I'd like to think of something clever for my first post. Maybe some quote or something. But no. Honestly, this whole prospect of sharing my art with a wider audience than just my little friend group terrifies me. And, well, I paint cosmic horrors.
