I referenced this acrylic paint marker painting on pinterest here!

Also, I wanna eat the fruit in the picture so badly 😂

[ih2msb]

Okay but hear me out....what if they did? 🤔

Hii! Quick question do you still draw marvel things like spider man and iron man (I saw your old comics on Pinterest so I had to find the source)

Hey sorry it took me so long to respond! And thank you for searching for the source when you saw my artwork! It really means a lot! ❤️

Sadly I have not drawn anything Marvel-related in quite some time, though I have been toying with the idea of redrawing some of my old artwork as an art challenge. We'll see!

So I got to try ADHD medication for the first time a few days ago... 👁👄👁

Ngl it was wild! I didnt realize it was actually possible to clean the whole apartment, cook food, and STILL have energy for hobbies! Not to mention I didnt need to mentally prepare myself to go outside, I just...did it. But my doctor dod warn me this one only worked for 12 hours, so I definitely felt like Cinderella when the time was approaching for it to wear off 🤣

Today is only the third day on this new medicine (I'm doing a trial, and after this week is done my doctor wants me to test another one next week to see wbich one works best for me). So we shall see!

Of course, if you have ADHD, you definitely do NOT need to take medication to thrive, and are totally valid if you don't want to! This is just me sharing my experience thus far as I am brand spanking new to this diagnosis, and I wanna test my options (and also share any silly doodles I may make about my experience 😂)

If you have ADHD and are currently taking or tried medicine, what was your experience? :O

These were some of the sketches I did while I was on holidays last december.

My boyfriend was born and raised in Hawaii on the small island of Kauai, so we went there so I could meet his family for the first time! It was such a beautiful place, and I feel very fortunate to have had the chance to go considering how expensive it is. We could only afford this because 1) he had been saving up pointa for a LONG time, and 2) were stayed at his family's home. I would definitely love to visit again someday, so I'm gonna work hard!

Also, should I one day make that front print into a sticker if I ever make a shop? What do you think?

Holy shitbit, it's WAY past new years!

I hope you guys have had a wonderful holiday season, and a fresh start to the new year! 2025 has been rather hectic for me, as I made the decision to tackle my health this year. Which while it has lead me to having some medical tests (some of which are still ongoing) that I NEVER thought I would be doing in my early 30s, but it also lead me to discovering something I always had!

So, I have ADHD!

...I know, now that I can say it with 100% certainty, it almost feels...rather obvious. Especially when I look back at what were clearly hyperfocuses (when I drew Marvel fanart for years, and then Legend of Zelda, and then I threw myself into FFXIV...😅) and how while I HAVE been drawing here and there while on vacation in december, I forgot my password, and then I kinda spiralled into imposter syndrome and...yeah 🫠

Anyway, I'm back, going to try and be more consistent, but also wanted to share with you guys what's going on on my end, and I also would love to hear from you!

How was your holidays and new year? Do you have any goals or things you look forward to in 2025?

And also, if you have adhd (whether you were also late diagnosed, or you've known since you were a kid), got any tips for a newcomer like me? 😂

As much as I love playing as an Au Ra....it is such a pain trying to draw their horns 😭

[ih2msb]

Sorry, I havent posted anything in a hot sec because I'm getting ready to travel! Going to visit my boyfriend's family for a week (and meet them for the first time!), so there's been a lot to prepare for 😅

Hoping it will will be a good chance to take in the scenery and do some art! But in the meantime, here are some older river otter studies I did ❤️

[ih2msb]

These were some bear studies from a few years back!

I like bears :)

(These were based off reference pictures from pinterest!)

[ih2msb]

Some various mushroom studies/art I've done! Some old and some new!

Most of them were made with pen and ink, but the one with the green background was a gouche painting (the reference picture was from somewhere on pinterest 😅). The black and grey one I drew on the cover of one of the MANY sketchbooks I am trying to finish...😅😅😅

[ih2msb]

Not art related at all, but Im curious!

For those of you who play video games, what game are you currently playing and enjoying? And which is your favourite game of all time?

Example: I'm currently playing Trails of Cold Steel (trying to get through all of my old games that I never finished before I buy new ones..😅), and my favourite game is Okami

[ih2msb]

These were some slightly older bird studies I did; I cant remember if I ever uploaded them before.

I just love how *orb* they are

[ih2msb]

Some koi studies while I wait for my friend

I was listening to the distractible podcast and then my wireless earbuds died 🫠

[ih2msb]

Ive been practicing drawing my Warrior of Light from FFXIV. Au ra horns are so beautiful, but so tricky to draw 😅

Here in vancouver we have local chain bakery/coffee shop called Breka, and oh my god it's amazing. If you guys ever happen to come to vancouver, you gotta try it out (and try their dark hot chocolate and breakfast croissants that are pictured here 🤤)

It was my boyfriend's birthday at the beginming of the month, and his dog Kiseki's birthday a week before that! So I made my bf a portrait of his favourite boy as a birthday gift

He's such a demure shikoku uwu
