What do you use to draw?

In recent times I've settled into using clip studio paint almost exclusively, though sometimes I use other stuff like ms paint or krita just to shake things up a bit. I also currently draw on a Samsung s9 FE+ tablet with the s pen.

What brushes do you use?

I've given up committing to a specific brush or set of brushes, I like to change things up often so this answer could easily change. as of now, I use the natural brush from the true grit sample pack, the artemus hard brush from the artemus pencil set on the clip studio asset store, and a lightly modified version of a pencil brush that seems to have been taken down since I downloaded them. (sorry!)

What do you use when drawing traditionally?

A whole mix of things, I really dont like sticking to one thing. I generally draw within sketchbooks and those sketchbooks are always multimedia. currently I'm using a talens art creation sketchbook. The tools on the other hand, I use a mix of posca and jusart acrylic markers, ohuhu alcohol markers, just some off brand highlighters, gel pens, pencils and erasers and faber castell colour pencils.

Do you have any tips for art?

Its hard to think of much outside of the stuff you've already heard a million times by now (unfortunately its true, studying does a lot and goes far.) one thing I personally think though, isn't necessarily related to art in practice but does help, taking care of yourself outside of it. Sometimes our art blows or we attach too much worth to it because we're doing really shit in other parts of life. You gotta look after yourself for it too.

Can I take inspiration from your art? study it?

I dont mind as long as its not just a 1 to 1 rip of my ideas (tracing, redrawing like 90% of a piece exactly and changing one minor thing, that sort of stuff.) thats how art is, my own art is a lot of observing artists that I like so I find it really annoying and stupid when people go against that.

What do you use to code?

Phoenix code. Its free to use for the most part, but recently gained a paid pro version (though as far as I've seen, doesn't take away any features that I'm accustomed to, so I dont think you'd be missing out.) I feel its not the best and others would probably tell you to use something like viscode, but I learned to code in this one and dont really feel like having to poke around another program. it does its job.

Do you have any tips for coding?

I'm still really bad at it not gonna lie. uhhm. Learn how to use flex box before you do too much of anything, it makes life so much easier when you understand how to use it instead of using things like positioning and float for the entire layout of your site. Absolutely dig into peoples codes too, you can find out a lot of things you can do just from looking. Copy paste it into your coding program and take it apart even, figure out what does what.

Can I take inspiration from your site?

Same with my art, I dont mind just dont blatantly rip off my things. I dunno if I recommend ripping any of my code though, as ive said im not a fantastic coder by any stretch and theres infinitely much better coded sites and coders willing to give tips you could look towards.

What are your stances on (x)?

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Ok. I'm a transgender otherkin/therian furry, and I've been handmaking art for the majority of my life at this point. that should tell you a lot without needing to spell it out.

A lightning round of things that aren't conveyed by that, though: I'm pro Palestine, anti terf (since for some fucking reason you freaks think trans men are allies to your cause, no, fuck you, trans women are women.) I'm anti harassment, censorship and pro kink, but I will not coddle you nor be your friend if you sexualize any sorts of abuse towards other beings (children, animals, etc.), or anyone who supports that. I do not view those in the same realm as just kink.

tl;dr: I'm pro anything that makes the world a better place for everything in it, and anti anything that causes harm.
