I’m trying to practice. My mental health has been attached to my art in a big way lately. So I’m forcing myself to do different things. I get very uncomfortable practicing new things to push my skills, since it’s new I’m mad that it’s not good enough. It takes practice to get good at something. This is a Saw Palmeto plant . . . . #watercolor #sawpalmetto #traditionalart

I’ve had artblock and no inspo so I decided to do some redraws for fun and practice. #pastpearl #stevenuniverse #stevenuniversepearl #pearlsu #pearlsufanart #fanart #stevenuniversefanart #sufanart

Simple tunic I made for June Faire. It’s not done, but, it’s almost done enough to take to faire. I decided to make a new apron dress too. Not even a week before we leave. I’m excited for faire. #mysca #junefaire2018 #antir

I am very excited for June faire. Still weird to me cause it’s open to public on Saturday. I’m making a dress to match kinda madies dress. I really hope she actually wears her dress this year instead of going to the free bin and wearing a falling apart dress. I may still be salty. Over all the dresses for her a little better. #mysca #societyforcreativeanachronism #junefaire2018

🕸I cannot tell you or explain to you, just how much I love Aranea Serket. 🕷 I could sit with her for eons talking with her. She’s passionate and will do anything to get to the goal. Unfortunately if that means controlling some people to succeed, she will... that’s where we would discuss our differences. Bad gorl. . . I love these contacts, I made this the sign for my sketchbook the night before we left. I am still INCREDIBLY SALTY that I forgot to wear her belt! Like, that was the only thing REALLY stopping me and I was so excited I finally found one, and I forget to wear it.... salty 😫🙃 . . . . . #araneaserket #araneaserketcosplay #homestuck #homestuckcosplay #sakurastuck2018 #sakuracon2018 #cosplay #whiteoutcontacts #honeycolorcontacts #christian #christiancosplayer @ardawigs @honeycolor_official (at Sakura-Con)

I did the meme thing. I really like this one. I don’t take picture of myself out of cosplay often so this picture is like a year or maybe 6 months old. But I love seeing my art improve.

Nothing but Aranea for now, I don’t want to post anything else. Plus I’ve been down with con plauge since Monday. So I haven’t been to work or been able to make money. Oh well. I need to rest. I’m watching sailor moon crystal now that there are 4 seasons to bindge, it’s not bad, my love for Jupiter is reestablished that’s for sure. #araneaserketcosplay #araneaserket #homestuckcosplay #sakurastuck2018 #sakurastuck

“Needless to say, we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into.” 🕸🕷 I love Aranea. I felt so beautiful. ✨ Also I’m still salty about forgetting to wear my belt. #araneaserketcosplay #sakurastuck2018 #araneaserket #homestuck #homestuckcosplay

I loved being Aranea. Wish I didn’t forget her belt. . . . #araneaserketcosplay #sakurastuck2018 #sakurastuck #sakuracon2018 #araneaserket #homestuck #homestuckcosply

I love my princess. I felt so beautiful as Aranea. I may or may not be her tomorrow. I also realized almost all the way through the day, I forgot my belt! Oh well I am still happy. I officially cannot wear paint for big events. It’s just smarter to photoshop later. I hope everyone’s con is going good! . . . #sakuracon2018 #sakurastuck #araneaserketcosplay #araneaserket

throw back to our first con in cosplay back in 2014 I believe. I am going to revamp thy cosplay someday. I’m gonna make a tail for vaporeon. . . . I am very excited to see everyone and do things. We’re gonna go around Seattle AND the convention center. I’m getting actual pictures this year! I am horrible at actually taking picture of my cosplays. I am bringing Aranea and Francine. I’m very excited. My horns are posing to be a problem though. I don’t want to remake them but I will if I have too. Not for con though. #cosplay #sakuracon #pokemoncosplay #vaporeoncosplay

✨ I just want to take a minute and appreciate two of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE BEANS in The WORLD 🌎 🤗🤩 I genuinely cannot wait to meet with you both and hang out and chat and socialize and be nerds together. I haven’t been this excited to meet new friends in person in a while. They are FANTASTIC AMAZIG CARING and WONDERFUL people AND they have great cosplays too 😘 . . I recommend following their pages if you like silly nerds and cosplay. Follow them regardless. They are good beans and they deserve the world. Love you both 😘 #cosplayers #urarakacosply #todorokicosplay #bnhacosplay #followthemnow

I’m honestly really nervous to be her 🕷🕸 . . . I am really excited for SakuraCon this year. Aranea is one of my favorite trolls and she will probably never truly be “finished” I am ecstatic that I’ve found a good way of sealing my paint. even without setting spray it wouldn’t rub off. PLUS big tip I found that helps, spray your sponge and paint with water in a spray bottle. If you spray it every now and then it activates nicely. Sticks to my skin nicely too. . . . I’ll probably only wear kanaya for the meet up and that’s it. We will see. I’m not very happy with her. #araneaserketcosplay #sakuracon2018 #araneaserket #homestuck #homestuckcosplay #sfxmakeup #cosplay

I bought a new sketch book and I like it a lot! I got a small moleskin, there’s nothing but a crease in the middle so I can draw in the seam if I have to. I’ll be inking this soon. See supposed to be sniffing a Lilly flower. . . . . #oc #originalcharacter #furry #fursona #christianfurry #christian

🕷My favorite Expositional Warrior Spider Queen 🕸 . . . My mental health has been on a down slump. It’s been a very bad 3 days, but the LORD prevails in my weakness and my suffering makes me stronger. I’m not alone in this. Not everyone knows what it’s like having a serious mental illness, it’s easy to understand when you don’t deal with it everyday. It’s even hard for those that DO. We all have good days and bad, remember the good when we are amidst the bad. . . . . #GODISGOOD #GOD #christian #christiancosplayer #araneaserketcosplay #cosplay #araneaserket #homestuck #homestuckcosplay

Joshes design. I need to make everything he has now extra big because everything he’s bought or we’ve made he keeps getting to big for. Which is honestly ok, he is a skeleton and can’t gain weight. I am gonna have fun with this one. . . . . #mysca #historical #historicalreenactment #medeval #renaissancefestival #renfaire #garb #tunic #scagarb #myscagarb
