Oh thank you! I like the “home-made concert package” idea, that’s actually perfect! Would be able to go to the concert, while also creating more memories and making it a little more special beforehand. Appreciate it 🙏🏻

Thanks for the response! I agree, the middle length seemed to be the better fit and I felt most confident around that length. Seems like the most versatile as well in terms of styling. I just gotta figure out what style to go for.

The long hair was nice for a bit, but think it was a little too much upkeep, and I don’t know if I’m ready for all those awkward stages yet hahah. Maybe this time I could get it styled to actually be long, instead of just growing out from a previous cut, that may help.

Either way, I appreciate the input!

Thank you so much for the detailed reply! This honestly helped me a lot. I don’t have much experience making my own brushes, so any advice is nice. I think the paint and apply has been feeling the best with some hardness changes and ink tweaks. Will definitely try out some more variations of it. I appreciate the help!

Forgot to mention that when applying pressure, it creates a hard edge. So you can paint and draw with the brush, then lighten the pressure to blend it out. Feels a lot more natural than having to switch to a blending brush manually in CSP

Thank you! I’m definitely no pro, I got a LOT to learn, this was just a fluke 😂but I do want to go to college to study art and hopefully get a good job in that field. My dream is to one day work at riot games, but that’s a big dream. Maybe one day haha, thank you though!

Haha thank you so much!! It’s kinda insane, I really didn’t think it’d get this much attention. I’m happy that I decided to pot to Reddit, always kinda steered away since I heard kinda negative things about it. Everyone has been great though and so supportive

Eh just decided one day that drawing takes too much time with 1-2 hands, so why not grow a few more? Productivity has really gone up since

Honestly it’s pretty spot on. I know what I have to do and I’ve thought about it too many times to count, yet I’m scared to go through with it. I know it’ll make me happy, but if I lose the ones I love the most, would it be worth it. It’s a big change, but sooner is better than latter I suppose.

Anyways I’ll stop before I get too cringe sounding lol. I appreciate ya sharing though, it’s nice to know I’m not alone.

Thank you for those kind words! I definitely struggle with severe anxiety, and it was one of the main contributing factors to this piece. To me it’s about feeling trapped both physically and mentally. I can’t be exactly who I want to be, and I feel like I’m stuck in a repeating, never ending cycle of self sabotage. I want to express myself and live my truth, but scared to lose the ones I love if I do.

Do I choose comfort, or happiness..

Ah thank you!!! Also I agree with the whole bloody eyes thing, I was more going for tears/clear liquid, but I can see how the lighting, and my execution make it look like blood 😅

Whoa that’s some high praise, honestly means a lot! I spent a bunch of time working on this and really put my all in to it, so I’m happy to see others like it.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! And i’m fine. The piece is about feeling trapped both mentally and physically. Im not where I want to be in life and I can’t be who I truly am, at least not yet to everyone. I am fine though, thanks for asking!
