in terms of intros- uh, surprise! I'm still around lol I'm Eleanor/Rose and for the past year I've been working full time as an FX animator for a super cool Netflix series and that's been a lot of fun for me. I'm always really proud and happy to see your art pop up on my dash; your improvement and skills have grown so much over the years and I love seeing it! (also u lowkey inspired me to preorder the zim artbook so im eagerly awaiting it too lol)

I KNOW YOU!!! I SEE YOU IN MY NOTES liking things quietly like an auntie patting my head. You’re one of the ogs who saw my worst era pre-rebranding (SO ON THAT NOTE LET’S SAY YOU DIDN’T KNOW ME, YIKES) BUT I DID NOT KNOW you now work on a netflix series that’s insane- look how far you’ve come holy shiet. 😳😳😳 You’s a goddang professional with both feet in the industry in some capacity.

AND 💙 THANK GOD YOU THINK THAT I’VE IMPROVED (and considering how long you’ve been around, that’s hfhsgsgf oh god, my art was a hot mess. Though, I guess some held up cuz a portion of it is still mistaken as not fanart and reposted and compressed like crazy 😬😬)

Even then like, on the lowest of keys, despite many classes and drawing every single day for several years of my life I still don’t think I’ve really gotten where I want to be yet art-wise if that makes any sense. (Which is weird because I don’t know what my goal is- i just think i’m not “there” yet, whereever THERE is.) And I don’t believe I’ll really get anywhere with it in life either to boot lol. There’s just this constant foreboding thought of “yup this will lead nowhere and you are dedicating your life to something that will have absolutely no payoff whatsoever” that never leaves and I have no solace ever !!

Ew i like keeping things light around here

im ready for that art book though and i swear the day it drops im hiding from this site until it’s in my hands, I wANnA bE surprised. The small previews got me like 👀 so im just, full on dumb energy now
