it’s a crime how long i’ve been away from your inbox honestly i’m so sorry! so i’m back with gifts 🫂
gen you are an absolute delight, like finding out you have ice cream in the freezer when you were craving a sweet treat in the summer time. you are truly a joy to know and your enthusiasm for the teams you support and the things you enjoy us so infectious i probably look like a maniac grinning at my phone as i scroll through your blog at night. seeing you on my dash makes my day better and knowing you has made my life better! i’m so thankful for you, i hope you’re doing well, and i’m sending you the biggest hug on the planet!
flowers! i’m devastated that i couldn’t take a picture of those orange flowers, they were the brightest orange i’ve ever seen in nature and they were so stunning, like a warm hug and the bold flavour of mint gum in a flower (so exactly like you). here are some other flowers that remind me of you, though a little less 🧡
i hope the rest of your projects and exams go well! i am here for you no matter what!
i love you sm, you are absolutely amazing i hope you know that
all my love,
k 🧡

11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what
Recently it's mostly like. My son yelling, or me straining to hear what he's doing so I can intervene if he's like. Trying to get into something.
But when I don't have to worry about that I listen to all kinda of music. I love sludge metal, "metal" metal, and hard rock for when I'm doing detail work. Queens of The Stone Age, Mastodon, Soundgarden, TCV... I've really been into Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats as well on a different note. Also a fan of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Tragically Hip, and a lot of classic rock bands.
I also listen to uh... comedy music? Tom Cardy, Young Scrolls, et cetera, to keep myself in a light mood when I'm sketching.
19. Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.)
I love drawing plants! And feathers and hair. If those count. I'd say artificial structures are one of my very weakest points in drawing atm. I envy those who feel passion for drawing buildings and the like.
Still need to get better at it.
30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated
In all honesty I don't consider any of my work to be standout... uhh I don't mean that in a self deprecating way. I find the reaction to my posted work to be quite fair! Stuff I've worked hard on typically gets more notes than simple stuff. And I'm grateful for every like and reblog. (And comments in the text body or tags. Those are my lifeblood)
I truly feel like The Boy and The Heron is Miyazaki’s apology letter to his son Goro.
Not in a “your my precious son and I love you so much, here a movie to make you for my failures” kind of way
but in a “I’ve built this incredible empire and legacy that’s given magic to millions of people, and in that time you’ve lived in that same world, and so naturally it’s expected that you’d take it over in my place, but I know that you’ll never succeed me or that you’ll be able to recreate the magic. This magical world will die with me, this company will die with me, and that’s okay. You don’t have to be me.”
