Trying to stir away from my comfort zone. I really enjoy more abstract artworks, so it's time I try it for myself !

I just found your art and it's gorgeous - curious if you're on Instagram or Twitter/X as well? I want to share it with my gf but she's not on tumblr

Thank you very much! So far I'm only on Bluesky other than tumblr: https://bsky.app/profile/krugboy.bsky.social Probably gonna stay on only these two. I'm not super into instagram because of the image ratio limitations, and X is run by a f*cking psychopath, so I'm out of there haha

Hey Pedro! You have been an incredible source of inspiration for me and I strive to reach your level of creativity everyday. I have just one question, have you ever provided art mentorships before, or are you considering doing it? My apologies for being so direct, but I just 'have' to know!

Mentorships might be coming very soon!! 👀

Trying to learn color schemes other than complementary lol this one is supposed to be a triad, and I think it worked (?) color theory is hard folks. I'm quite happy with the drawing of this character, but the rendering not so much. I think I'm starting to feel a bit tired of the way I paint things, probably gonna try new things from now on. But this was a color study, so I won't beat myself up that much haha Have a nice start of the week everybody! Cheers

I've been slowly trying to detach myself from my own pretentiousness when it comes to art. The constant impossible challenge to come up with the "next big thing" has finally shown itself as not that great of an idea, you know. For the past few years, I'd say, I had separated art from pleasure and gratification. It simply became "the thing I did". It was few the days that I actually enjoyed creating stuff, and that realization on itself made me really depressed. How did I ended up like this? I've been drawing since I can remember, but somehow I willingly took a knife and stabed that part of myself in the heart. I like to believe that this happened because of the state of the Entertainment Industry, Capitalism, and society as it is today. But it's easy to blame those things. And it's a bit harder to admit that as I grew older, and got my work on the internet more and more, I became more selfish, pretentious, and I wasn't really drawing for the same reasons I did before. In this industry, we do need to fit within the status quo sometimes, in order to get our work seen by many people, and thus, be employed and make a living. Since the start that was the plan. But somewhere along the journey, I got lost. I feel like I got rid of the good motivations I had for drawing, and replaced it with the status quo, and suddenly drawing and art ceased to be something I enjoyed. I'm still finding myself, and this week I was really happy that I managed to sketch these characters above. I still can't explain it but somehow this past few days something in my brain clicked, and drawing came back to me like a long lost childhood plushie. It felt good, fun, and most of all, relaxing. It felt right. So now I am trying to make this a routine where I draw with no intention what so ever, other than to draw. I'm hopefull that I can make art part of my heart once again. I also like to write about what I'm thinking, so expect more rambling in the coming posts. Cheers,

Hello! I’m a student and I’ve been a big fan of your work for a long time now! A question I was wondering is: who would you say are your biggest art influences?

Also what brush/brushes do you use? 🐒🐒

Thank you! Nowadays my art fuel comes from drawing/working with my art friends, not really thinking too much about influences outside of that. But in more abstract terms music inspires me a lot , love Sleeping at Last My brush is square ⬜ embrace the sqquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquaresquare
