I’m realizing folks like to see the tools people use when they draw so I included that this time. It’s a brush that’s too small tbh (a friggin’ size 4/0) but it’s nice & I got it for extremely cheap.

Hope you’re having a swell day!

    It was a joke, I was just joshing you. I wasn’t serious and my b if it came off like it. It’s actually funny, becuase I thought it might be W&N because of the cleanness of the ink. I love that freakin’ brand! Idk what Pixelfed is but my b =

    But ink, ink is 10/10 my favorite medium. And micro-brushes are my favorite tool. My gf is super into the larger stuff, but I think finer details are lovely and good for my head (because of the repetative nature of the hand motions). But I lost a lot of motor control, which is why I ended up stopping doing the fine stuff unless it’s a really solid day. I tend to work a sloppy traditional or a slower digital nowadays. But the pieces I work tend to be personal takes on things I think about or enjoy (like reads) or appreciation pieces for the people I love. But either way creating = life. I never feel better than when I am making something (in any capacity).

      It’s funny you don’t know what Pixelfed is. Your username is [email protected] lol. You have that space to post artwork in the future if you’d like. It’s sort of like Instagram, I guess, but non-commercial. Anyways, thanks for sharing, I like talking shop.

        Super weird, I use piefed. I never heard about pixel feed until you said anyhting about it. Ah, I had no clue. I’ll tell my gal about it, because she loves insta and maybe she’ll get into it? Oh yeah, me too. You got me wanting to make some mucky ink monsters =)
