i've gone back and forth on telling you this because i don't want it to make you feel pressured, but then i saw this post about how an artist doesn't know how much you think about their work unless you tell them, so. fyi i semi-regularly just come check your blog to see if you've opened up commissions and to see if i've missed any new posts from you. i think you're amazing. ok bye!!

oh thank you so much for your lovely message full of warmth 💜 indeed, reading these words can make a world of difference, for any creative sharing their work :’)

as for commissions, I’m working on opening some soon!!!

have the loveliest day/night/afternoon 🩷

i was your moot on twitter and i also left that place. but we’ve interacted there a few times and you’re a joy shi. do what you wanna do if that means interacting in smaller groups that’s a good decision. existing in rwrbtwt may not be good for the mental health nowadays but oh we had some good memories i cri. maybe someday we’ll come together harmoniously like before

💜💜💜

we did have a good time and we still do, fandoms can’t be only doom and gloom. it’s a balance to find! when you find your safe place, it’s all love and healthy discussions. feel free to reach out also if you’re active elsewhere!

[shirmirart]

but you're not doing a lot of yapping either on bluesky though 😭 we miss you

I do! not on my main account, but I'd rather stay in small committee hehe

[shirmirart]

I'm so happy and proud of you. I remember when I was still also active on twt that you'd also lament on how it was hard for you to quit the platform & I felt the same way too but after the US elections my feed was a whole trash dump & I found myself doomscrolling for hours, it seemed like some fresh new hell was happening. In addition to that, what once was a source of joy and comfort — the rwrb fandom — was also now a source of anger & disappointment & I didn't want to lose my love for rwrb so I finally left. There's still a bit of toxicity here (what social media platform doesn't) but it's leagues better than twt.

Awwww you’re very sweet 😭 we make it sound like such a big deal hahaha but indeed I am proud of us!

I will have to see if I can make it work in the long run given so much of my work platform is here as well, and I miss some lovely members of our rwrb community, but yes. I breathe at last. Opening this app was just a constant subjection to negativity and bigotry, unfortunately that messes with the head.

[shirmirart]

since ur not active on twitter anymore (yay! that hellsite sucks anyway) will you spend more time on tumblr taking art requests or interacting or whatever? it’s okay too if you won’t im just saying. i love ur art you’d make your fandoms tumblr (especially rwrb) a better place by blessing it with ur art x

Hey hey! I don't think my presence here will be any different. As much as I love the rwrb fandom and creating for it, I'm still a tad weary. And making art, specifically quick requests, is not really a walk in the park for me 😭 I just redirected my yapping to the bluesky app 🥹 But thank you for your words, it makes me happy to know my art can make people happy 💜

[shirmirart]

Will you reactivate your twitter account? I wish we could at least retweet some of your art there, a fandom always needs art to survive :(

Hi, my art is still available for your viewing pleasure literally everywhere else! And there are other fandom artists as well. I'll reactivate in case I need to share work related news.

just wanted to say I adore the way you draw Chappell Roan, it’s truly inspired <3

Oh thank you dearly 🩷 I love drawing her I’m so inspired by all her outfits and general aura, I’m glad you enjoy the few illustrations I made so far!

ok mister legs for days

(alex's version)

(this just screamed henry with his jaffa cakes and his dog-eared austen novel so I had to)

[shirmirart]

hi! i absolutely love your art SO much, and i was wondering if you have any plans to open up your commissions again in the future? absolutely no pressure or demand! i was just curious.

thank you so muchhhhh for the love 🩷 I hate that I never give a definitive answer but this is long overdue, so yes ideally commissions will open at one point very soon, although I really don't know when. or which kind of commissions!

[shirmirart]

taylor zakhar perez thank you for your face

[shirmirart]
