two silly characters from an AU I made based on the sams (tho from much earlier as I’m really behind on the show atm-) meet Dusk and Aurora! Color palette was gotten from one of those color palette challenges that my friend showed me (don’t have it on hand atm but if someone wants it I can try to dig it up ^^”)

“Where touch begins, we are” is a visual representation of the tactile sense. A series of slow-motion sequences emphasizes the connection between action and reaction. The video work assembles a collection of gestures on touch sensitive surfaces, ranging from natural elements, such as the Mimosa pudica plant to touch-screens or memory foam. By building a language based on sensuality, the human body can expand infinitely through touch, and reality is inherently translated.”

“Nona Inescu’s work concentrates on the interpretation of the post-humanist relations of the human body to the surrounding space and to technology. In her video production Where touch begins, we are, of all the senses, touch is the most directly charged with intimacy. In this way, touch can transfigure and blur the edges of both the individual as well as the objects in an interaction. By building a language based on sensuality, the human body can expand infinitely through touch, and reality is inherently translated.” (Diana Marincu, 2017)

I enjoy making lots of versions of an adapted version of eclipse 💃 (the background is NOT mine, it’s from the Art Nexus from an old art competition/challenge https://discord.gg/art-nexus)

update on the calendar :D

Here’s another update on the progress! The lines are a bit blurry cuz I cropped it manually instead of exporting it (final won’t be blurry don’t worry). Hope you guys like sun 😋- the hands are a bit wack-

sneak peek at a drawing for a potential calendar

Hi! Sorry for the slow posts. Tis exam session 😩. Anyways I’m working on a drawing for the month of may and will prolly turn it into a calendar that will be free to print (but it will likely be water marked). General rules still apply in the sense of don’t claim my art as yours when it’s done but I don’t really care if you are clarifying where you got the picture from for this specifically. Hopefully it’ll be done a few days May, thank you for all the support so far

My OC Eclipse’s armor design

Another Blueprint-ish doodle sheet of Eclipse

Made a sort of sheet on how his head would be assembled, more specifically a list of stuff you’d need cuz I dunno ��‍♀️
