    I really think you’re about to find your audience! At least, you found me haha. I love your vibe, art, and discussions. It is very unifying and comforting.

    This piece is so beautiful!!! Those pastels were soooo creamy going down. I struggle with fear sometimes. Defiantly a lot more now than I did say 5 years ago. I don't know! Perhaps I listen to myself more these days and therefore: overthink! wooo! I usually try to PLAY, and do something silly and a bit out of my comfort zone. I created my Scribble Brigade live stream and art prompt days over on patreon more for myself than anyone, mainly so i can just break out of some sort of sticky loop I'd get caught up in. Yeah, being silly and playful helps me a lot. It's like a reset. It doesn't always work, and when it doesn't I just become a blob for a few days until something else sparks my interest! I ADORE YOU x

    @@SophieMcPike no I adore YOU ☺️✨ but I totally feel this. And I think you’ve built something really lovely and genuine with your Scribble Brigade. The art that yall make is so whimsical, it looks like a blast to be a part of. (I almost keep telling myself to join, but I’m a workaholic so I’m always doing something else 😅)

    Thank you! I have been trying to make art every day and yesterday I had to learn to talk myself down from very critical thinking. So glad you did oil pastel which is my current "hot mess" medium. I have those Mungyos and they are so much fun (but I have yet to really give this medium the time it needs ... so little time available!)
