    It’s a myth that David Bowie had different-colored eyes, it’s just that the pupil in his left eye was permanently dilated because of an injury when he was younger, and it only looks like different colored eyes if you’re not looking close enough. But it’s cool you still gave your character heterochromia anyway 😅 It took me a few minutes to notice the goat brooch thingy, that’s a really cool detail. I love how this design is very elegant but it also has a bit of an edge to it, and as a Capricorn I approve.

I always feel bad for putting off watching your videos because the algorithm likes to burry them, but they’re so special and calming I prefer to save them for a time I can fully enjoy the process. Been seeing this piece on instagram and was so excited ! I’ve been in some sort of art burn-out for years, only being able to draw for a couple days every few months, but I always get inspired seeing your art ! Thank you and keep doing what you’re doing 💖💕

    Off topic, but it makes me happy to see your brushes used. I got my set and then got nervous about getting them all stained and not white anymore. Kinda silly, considering their purpose. This just makes me less worried about "messing them up", you know?

    This is so amazing! When you added the gouache over the colored pencil, how watery was the gouache? It's hard to tell in the video but it looks more like a wash. The way the face turned out is so smooth and blended - I'm excited for the rest! Sagittarius here... so I'll have wait!

    Gorgeous piece! Your experimenting is paying off. The zodiac theme kind of didn't stand out to me for this but that's ok cuz its something anyone could like! Also just fyi Capricorns are mountain Goats not Rams the Aries sign us the Ram. 🤷‍♀️ Linda Goodmans astrology books might be really helpful for understanding the zodiac signs in a deeper way.
