I’m so relieved to have finally been approved for an apartment. After two months of searching and endless phone calls and emails and driving long distance just for people to ignore our applications, pocketing the app money, or flat out tell us not to bother applying, my roommates and I are moving in tomorrow.
It’s such a cute place too! And they give us the option of having one of the walls painted an accent color. I’ve got my sights set on this teal color they have. Any-who, I just wanted to say sorry to any of my followers here or who follow also my art blog about how inactive I’ve been the last three months. It’s been all of this home scouting nonsense on top of my being extremely ill. I’ve been in and out of the hospital all summer. I’m confident being in a happier and healthier environment will set things straight for this next school year. c:

Um!!!! Hello!!
How am I only just finding your beautiful stunning gorgeous artwork now?!
It's so TASTY!! holy FUCK!
The lineart and the shape language alone is outstanding! I love the sketchy yet refined quality of your work, and the way you draw anatomy is just *chefs kiss*
There's a spindily sort of manga mixed with Tim Burton-esque vibe going on, except everyone's sexy???
Like everyone is so unbelievably hawt in your style like okay DAmN😳
Queen shit right there! 👑I love it, love you. Thank you for blessing the fandom 💕
Ooooooo~! Tim Burton-esque Harry Potter now I like the sound of that!
Tumblr media
Omg, Beanz!! Thank you so much I can’t tell you how much I squealed reading your ask. Tytyty 💖✨ gosh can I just say I’ve been a fan of your comics and art for such a while now??? Adorable and saucy in one big ol package like a Harry Potter enchilada.
Don’t even worry I’ve not been here posting in the fandom for very long hurhurhur. It’s only recently I’ve sort of exploded with the doodles.
And you think my bb’s are sexy?! Gosh I am so tickled thank you again. How many times can I say this-? Take me off the stage, team, I’ve been broken by lovely people on the internet.

I wish for all of you who create to enjoy the process and let go of the pressure to finish content solely for others to see and validate that you're worthy of your craft. Don't give up. Make art ♡ that's enough.

what are your favorite drarry fics? :)
I will only pick 7 and it might not really be my top seven to be fair as I’ve read probably hundreds. I’ve only just a few days ago gotten an ao3 account so I can save them yeesh. So here are 7 Drarry fics I’ve read and immensely enjoyed!!
In no particular order:
All Our Secrets Laid Bare by firethesound // E rating, Auror partners
An Issue of Consequence by faithwood // E rating, 8th Year setting
Slithering by astolat // E rating, set soon after DH
Azoth by zeitgesistic // E rating, hogwarts apprentice partners in Alchemy
Draco Malfoy and the Mirror of Ecidyrue by starbrigid // T - E rating, an epic and completed canon rewrite concerning Draco going back in time to before his 1st Year at Hogwarts
Turn by Saras_Girl // E rating, I cried, disgustingly, like when I rewatched Kiki’s Delivery Service as an adult post college burnout.
Eclipse by Mijan // T rating, written and set after Order of the Phoenix, huge Draco arc with lovely magic and mystery and a very, very long hiking trip.
And a bonus of anything written by bixgirl1 as I’ve read almost every one of their fics and I’m obsessed.
There are lots others like Running on Air of course and just gosh so, so many others I think it’s unfair not to list them. That’s the wonderful part of this fandom. It’s so rich and active it’s hard to taste it all. Oh yeah and most of the fics I’ve read are from over 3-4 years ago or older because I’ve been working through the search result on Ao3 in chronological order like a cracked walnut with a nasty case of completionism.

You are my absolute favorite artist right now. I love everything you do. Your drawings are so lively and I adore your Harry and Draco, but I have a soft spot for your Harry. His hair, the necklace, his features, everything really. Would you mind sharing a bit about yourself, anything at all. No worries if you don’t feel like it. Love love your work !
Tumblr media
Gosh, thank you from the bottom of my slimy heart! May this post-it note doodle find you in fair times. I'm not really sure what you'd like to know, sweet Anon!
My name is Basia but as the misspelling highlight is showing as I type this, it isn't a common English name so I also go by Bosh just the same. I went to college for illustration and have been crawling my way through the past 7 years trying to pay bills but relearn how to enjoy my career and life in general. Fantasy and queer romance is very important to me as genres in media, whether fandom or original art! I have 4 cats with my partner and love to cook as a hobby.
Thank you for your wonderful ask, and if you (any of you?) wish to know anything in particular, feel free to send another!

On Theft in Art
Tumblr media
First: thank you to the anon here and the other many people who brought this to my attention! I know you did it out of support of me and I love you for it.
I was ready to keep it private as I didn’t want anything negative to come up and be associated with my art. But as I was asked across different platforms concerning the art in question I realized it really bummed me out. I’m here to have a good time in the fandom and create with you all. We have a good thing here in the community and I didn’t want any smoke with another artist - a mutual even.
So to help me feel a little better about it I want to turn this into an opportunity to teach others on the differences between Reference, Inspiration, Reinterpretation, and Theft
Reference: (usually) a visual source of information in order to better understand something. Example here is of my reference board and the art I am currently working on.
Tumblr media
My favorite example of a professional using reference photos is by Hirohiko Araki (creator and artist of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure), who uses fashion editorials and photoshoots ALL the time it’s awesome - tysm @yumiaiyuma for showing me this goldmine
Tumblr media
Study and Inspiration: here is a great example from the wonderful Stephanie Pepper. Notice the caption stating these are studies, the movie it is from, and I will even go on to say that this artist is influenced or inspired by the prolific works of J. C. Leyendecker (but what’s key is that Stephanie Pepper has developed and practiced to the point of deviating from his work and become a style of art completely her own - and she’s so recognizable in my opinion!)
Tumblr media
Personal Example for Inspiration:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
An Example of Reinterpretation: note - Both these classical artists whose works are being recycled are dead and no longer missing out on potential work and income. Where stealing ideas and art from current artists hurts them financially and mentally and emotionally. Howl as The Fallen Angel by _mimimaru on Instagram is an interpretation of a 1847 painting by Alexandre Cabanel and is now considered public domain // the Mickey Mouse self portrait was by Charles Boyer and is a parody of the famous illustration by Norman Rockwell and was commissioned by Walt Disney, himself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now here’s the part that is concerning to several people, myself included.
Recently, an artist found the reference I used, and decided to draw Andromeda, Bellatrix, Narcissa, and Regulus staring at Sirius getting supposedly punished by Walburga Black off screen.
Tumblr media
Let’s be clear: this isn’t a matter of tracing or claiming my image as their own. I do not mind at all if myself and another artist end up using the same reference. It happens all the time. Referencing and studying is not stealing. Reinterpretation is great for meme art challenges and paying respect to old classics. Even being inspired and doing one’s own version of another artist’s idea is totally cool, especially if you tag and/or shoutout the artist that inspired you.
I genuinely love and appreciate everyone who has brought this to my attention and who has been supportive and defensive of me with this. That reaction means more to me than anything else in this whole ordeal, if I’m being honest. So thank you all so much, with all my heart.
In closing: Do I hope this is all one gigantic coincidence? Absolutely. It’s one of those very uncool things that hurts my heart as an artist. I just want everyone to enjoy art and inspire each other so we can all grow. I do not want any malice to come from this either. I just wanted to inform everyone that I am aware of this, and give some of my thoughts on it. I also wanted to use this as a way to educate everyone on artistic process and why these things might happen sometimes.
Edit: me and the artist have chatted and we see it as a silly coincidence ♡ and honestly I'm happy and so relieved with that. But I think a lot of this info is still good to be mindful of in a creative community where we circulate ideas and content regularly.

My year at a glance! January I set off strong drawing on streams despite burn out feeling imminent. February through June I either drew a literal single time or none at all, and then I did a little doodle… and that doodle turned into more and more and then some more and even more still thereafter.
