anyways, I’m so glad I actually have talent and the ability to make fics that make me happy so I don’t have to go around throwing shade at others’ writing because I have the creativity of a piece of fucking lint. So happy I have self esteem and a personality instead getting mine from the internet. Some of you obviously can’t relate.

Today at work, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror &....
I only just realized???? That the way I style & hardcore gel my hair back, as paired with my brand new glasses frames makes me look like a funky lil 1950's office guy &.... I actually love this vibe so much?
.... especially when considering I dress like a '00s skater most of the time lmaooo so the energy I give off can be maximum chaos♡

Sorry for being so rambly today (and last night) I have thoughts so onto the blog they go
I feel like part of the joy of art is in community, like you create something and you get to talk about it and share it with the world. This year I lost touch with the friends who I would always talk about art with and I think that loss is heavily impacting my ability to create (and the enjoyment I get from it.) I miss having a new idea and getting to ramble about it excitedly. I miss texting people the sketches and the mock ups and the color palettes.
I got into art for me. I wouldn’t show anything I made to anyone for years. So I’m no stranger for creating for the target audience of myself. Still, I miss that sense of community. I love this blog and I absolutely adore the lovely comments you all leave on my art but sometimes it feels so one-sided on here. I post a piece, I receive a lovely tag back and that’s it. End of story. I spend hours and hours working on something and it kind of disappears into the void in a day or so.
Trying to put it into words, but I think I wish I could create art that starts a conversation. That inspires people to create their own things in response, or even just talk with me about process. I think the perfectionism has gotten out of hand lately because I feel like I’m missing something—which I attribute to the quality of the piece—but really what I’m missing is buddies to chat about art with. There is no level of being “good enough” that will serve as a substitute for a real community.

I don’t think Lucas’s determination to have Henry onboard for his project is just because he believes Henry’s business sense would be helpful. Nor do I think he genuinely thinks Henry’s past record can be easily dealt with, which is what I believe Edwin wanted to bring up in protest of the job offer. He went through a trauma on top of having his plans for the future change, so I think he mainly wanted to have a good friend around and keep a sense of normalcy in his life.
Meanwhile, Henry knows his involvement would only cause career issues for Lucas and harm his standing as governor. I have no doubt he’ll stick around as a friend for Lucas and give him advice when asked, but the second reason he gave rings true. Henry’s had quite the journey over the run of the show: various jobs/businesses, legal troubles, and shifting dynamics with the people of Hope Valley.
From everything Henry’s said recently (about his past and how he’s changed), it’s clear he doesn’t feel the need to have some prestigious position of power or accumulated wealth. I can’t say for sure what exact path he’ll take, but it seems obvious to me that his future involves helping his community in whatever ways he can, staying present in his son’s life, and being a good friend. I don’t see him running a business. Maybe he’ll work with Joseph on projects to help those in need.
