Art Fight 2019

1 min read
guh, hey, hello new watchers. Not really sure where y'all are finding me, but i appreciate it. A bit overwhelmed by my activity notifications rn to be honest.

Anyways, i guess i can make a late announcement for art fight this year. I'm team dream and finally getting into the groove of drawing some attacks. Here's my profile: artfight.net/~vireosy 

I've only got humans up right now, but i usually have my sona up for a week or two near the end of July if that's more your style. Not really looking for too many attacks tho, lol. Would be happy to just check out others' characters. Anyways, happy summer

i suppose i never made a sort of official post about this ? after roughly 8 or 9 years of dA membership, that's finally run out, and i didn't feel the need to renew it with my dwindling activity. but i'm a bit too used to the features to say not having it doesn't deter me from checking here even more so than usual. i don't think this sort of thing comes as a surprise to anyone following me, though if it does, then i'm touched and flattered my presence here, however scarce, meant something.

i most regularly check 
though you can also follow my art and projects on tumblr or wysp. these two are checked about as often as dA.

i've struggled to continue drawing or to see the point in sharing any of it if it's not fanart or animal illustrations. i can't seem to be able to write, though i do want to and i know i have the capacity to. being able to run and organise zines or art games has been a welcome change, though it does mean i, myself, am creating less, and i worry this sort of thing alienates those who decided to follow me.

to those who have enjoyed my work, thank you. i fear i'm losing sight of what i want to do, but the fact anything i've done has caught anyone's attention is astounding to me. i regret i was unable to figure out/commit to some sort of long-term project or more consistent line of subject matter, though i don't regret the work i have managed to do.

despite appearances, i don't mean this as a farewell, just some sort of notice for my activity.

again, thank you

Hey there! It's been a year since I started hosting semi-regular art exchanges and I hope to keep things going. We're back with an art swap for Valentine's, and this time there's an optional theme for those who want it. Our theme is sweet treats, and I'm excited to see what kinds of art people will come up with.

The signup form can be found right here: goo.gl/forms/oUCHfdS3dCdXKMpV2

Signups close January 26 @ 23:59 CST!

Additionally, if you want to stealth around in the server before making a decision, you can check that out here: discord.gg/SafJV8v

Thanks, and all the best! tiny light pink heart

hello. just a quick notice:

here's an art swap where i'm trying something different again—since we'll be working through november (i.e. the month-long huevember), i thought it'd be fun to mix in a palette challenge, so you'd sign up by giving some character ref(s) as well as a small selection of colour guidelines. other than the colours, it's similar to any other art swap, and i'll be managing it through discord like i've done previously.

sign ups close at the end of October 31st, and the swap ends November 30th.

the signup form is here: goo.gl/forms/XuRcTj9fbxHIqQcR2

or you could just check out the discord; that'd be cool too: discord.gg/hydPKbZ
