hello! ur art makes me coocoo bananas!! do u or did u have any specific influences on ur artstyle?

this was a big big post in my drafts for a while and it mentioned all of my beautiful friends and mutuals, but i got shy and less intoxicated. ill put some of them in tags.

other than obvious monkey see - monkey do, i think the most influential thing was getting the basics of academic art? i won't say i was good at it (i wasn't. though my oil painting was fine, to my knowledge) but it did help me a lot. and believe it or not, getting medicated also changed my process and end result a lot. something in antipsychotics is forcing you to use every texture in the world and abandon line art all together
