What better way to celebrate my birthday than to draw Zouis again?

aki-anyway! Erika has some really cool art, and her Larry New Year series is so adorable! Also the jedi Zayn was fantastic and the Louis' family one was brilliant!

@aki-anyway!  you are so appreciated!  thank you especially for the works named above, as they seem to have struck a particular chord with our dear nonnie, and isn’t that the entire point of art?  congratulations and thank you!

Hi, sorry to bother you with such nonsense, but I just remembered /realized that I most probably started to follow you back in the glory days, like possibly a decade or more ago because of your beautiful drawings of 1D. And now I'm here liking your memorial drawing for Liam (actually I think I did that right around when it happened, back in autumn, my recent experiences with time are tricky though, sorry) It just feels crazy surreal, yet comforting. I don't know mostly strange.

Sorry for the unprompted sentimentalism and I hope you are doing well xxx

It's crazy to think that some of you have been around for that long!

The 1D fandom was an amazing family and I have many good memories of those days. We all went different routes, but I think those times will always stay with us ♥

Thanks for still being around, I hope you are doing great as well!

Support all the women, help women who are struggling with abusive relationships, don’t shame women because how they choose to dress, respect trans women, listen to women when their opinion is invalidated because of their sex. Believe in your ideals and keep fighting for your rights.

Happy Women’s Day

I just saw the Grammys tribute and this clip I've never seen before. He was hugging my Lilo drawing 💔

I am quite late to the party, but I finally finished this drawing of Qimir from the Acolyte ✨

I was debating if I should draw something or not, until I received an ask saying this would be comforting to some, knowing he's not alone.

When I read the news the other day my immediate feeling was denial, someone must have made it up. Unfortunately no, it was all true. I disagree with a lot of actions Liam did in the past few years, but he was a fundamental part of something amazing that connected hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. I am extremely thankful for what he helped create.

If you're new to my account, you might not know that everything I am doing nowadays has been influenced by One Direction and the fandom. My art and social media career would never have existed without them. This past few days me and many many others have been mourning the loss of something that shaped up and changed the course of our lives. It was amazing to see that as always, the fandom came through and we're still supporting one another, all these years later.

I wanted to draw this piece as a reminder that no matter how lonely and lost you might feel right now, you're not alone. Even if it doesn't seem like it, there is someone who will miss you dearly. If you're struggling, please ask for help ♥️

This tragic story is a reminder of the importance of mental health and how it should always be taken seriously. Here is a petition to help prevent the abuse of artists the music industry.

My heart goes to Liam's family, his son, his friends and to his 4 brothers.

Ciao Liam.

On The Road Again (again)

People who are not artists do not understand why we create.

Under my video tutorials is full of comments like "AI would have done this in 12 seconds". Yeah and then what? What is the point?

The beauty of art is creating it yourself, putting effort into learning and seeing the results. Bringing to life what's in your head.

The beauty of art is creating.

Female Rage the Musical 👊 This took me ages to finish! I’m so in love with @taylorswift latest album, every song speaks to my soul. I can’t believe I will see this live in a month and a half???

🤩 I’m so excited to finally show you what I’ve been working on for a while! My first-ever art guide: “Stylize Anyone from Reference: A Step-by-step Guide to Stylized Portraits of Different Ethnicities” 

I wrote this workbook after receiving your amazing feedback on my last YouTube short. I wanted to expand and complete the information in my videos in one place, so here we are! In the workbook, you'll learn how to study a reference, turn each facial feature into simple shapes, let go of unnecessary realistic details, study and draw different ethnicities, and understand the traits that define a person’s look. All are explained in simple steps.

🚀 It’s not all, I’m running a sale to celebrate the launch, get 30% OFF the workbook until the 20th of December!

If you’re interested and want to know more, here is the link to my store: www.aki-anyway.com

I hope this workbook will help you reach your stylization goals!
