It/Its

It

is the bluest depths of the sky. It

is the spans of lively desert. It

is the sharp caws of crows gathering on a pine tree in the suburbs. It

is the mid-afternoon sun in early August.

It

is the stone picked up off the ground, chosen out of dozens. It

is the jingle of collected can tabs on a carabiner. It

is the smell of sagebrush and rain. It

is the furry little jumping spider that sits with you a while.

It

is the big armchair in the back corner of a local library. It

is the warmth of a mug of apple cider. It

is the beating heart of the city, humming through the streets. It

is the heavy jacket, worn and patched and repaired.

It means no disrespect

when you say It properly.

So would you, perhaps, consider

that "It" could be me?

i have committed an art

drew a lovely spider i saw in my backyard, still needs some touchups to look it's best but i do like it at its current stage

everyone saying "art doesn't need to be perfect" hasn't taken into account the art monster, the monster that comes and kills you if art doesn't look exactly like it did in your head

lunchtime napkin art

going with a mix of gash in reality/crossing a threshold themes. really needed color on this one but oh well it is what it is

class (not)doodles

no references, mostly just fidgeting and keeping myself awake

space hole with colors

left is unedited, right has filters to make it look slightly better. i used my sketchbook to make a sticker and i cut it out, so i wanted to do something with the back. the pencils look really light next to the black even though i was pushing hard and did so many layers it was having trouble adhering to the paper. also need to work on even coverage. also not horrible for no sketch color work, but i need to blend more. I don't like this piece but it's the practice that matters.
