The first progress picture I took was before gravity decided it had beef with this painting. On the right side is some round gold shapes that don't look like a clock yet, and on the left is most of a woman's face. It's basic but the proportions are fairly good.

The second progress shot is after two rounds of repairs as well as the actual progress. 

On the right, the clock is taking shape against a fabric-like backdrop. On the left, the woman is recognizable as Sara from the Labyrinth movie because of her distinctive gown and hair, but her mouth and cheek are a bit worse for wear.

After the latest loss to the vagaries of physics, the same dang side of Sara's face is smeared again, as well as the fabric backdrop, and this time her mouth hasn't even had a chance to be repaired yet.

Lastly, a bonus shot with my leg propped up near the painting, because not only did the painting fall squarely on my shin, but I'm wearing black jeans and spider socks.

The painting is super glossy and you can definitely tell that it's wet paint.

Bonus soda can that's about the same height as Sara's head.

There's a tuxedo cat under the easel. Princess Elora is glancing over her shoulder to figure out what nonsense I'm up to.

I tried oil painting for the first time.

Gravity+dyspraxia decided to remind me why I use acrylics.

This poor thing tumbled off my easel four times. FOUR.

And trying to get a shot of the paint on my leg was awkwardsauce. Bonus soda can scale and Princess Elora's cameo.

Hi, I have diagnosed c-PTSD and this is true and if you suck at tetris, any bright coloured fast game requiring rapid eye movement and decision making will do! it also helps if you witness something triggering and are trying to stave off an episode

If you see a snail crossing a path & grab its shell to move it out of the way, you might be injuring it while thinking you're helping but grabbing the shell is a problem

i think sometimes people don't mean it very sincerely but if you do sincerely want to draw i am throwing a pencil box at you. i am gently sandwiching your face between a sketchbook and a tablet with youtube how-to-draw videos loaded in the browser

Onfim’s drawing of himself on horseback as a warrior defeating an enemy.

Onfim’s drawing of himself on horseback as a warrior defeating an enemy.

Two of Onfim’s works.  On the left is a copy of a passage from the Book of Psalms he did for schoolwork.  On the right is an apparently autobiographical depiction of a monster labeled with β€œI am a wild beast.”

Some more spelling practice by Onfim with some human figures who have round heads and varying numbers of fingers on their big hands.

Onfim’s writing practice accompanied by 7 little people in his particular drawing style, who tend to have very big hands with many fingers.

Nice AI-image-generating tool, but it will never be as great an artist as Onfim, a child who lived in the Novgorod Republic in the mid-1200s and who scribbled these drawings and schoolwork writings on birch bark at the age of 6 or 7.

An advertisement for the polio vaccine which reads: "they all got vaccine except dad...don't take a chance...take your polio shots!" It depicts a photo of a family gathered around a father who is in an iron lung.

With science falling under increasing attack, this medical historian is here to remind people of the power of vaccines. THREADπŸ‘‡

Hard-hitting polio advert from 1958. In the first half of the 20th century, polio was the leading cause of death in children and young adults. 1/7 #history #skystorians

Kansas Sends Letters To Trans People Demanding The Immediate Surrender Of Drivers Licenses "The legislature did not include a grace period."

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

This is an attack on human rights.

Kansas is stripping trans people of their drivers licence unless they change it to the wrong gender.

This will make it so they can’t drive and can’t vote.

Get loud.

If they can take rights away from trans people, they can take them from you.

‼️Final Statement Regarding EvulArt‼️

I originally did not intend to make this public but recent events have made that impossible. This is no longer "internet drama", it's harassment and retaliation.

Yeah about this, it's right!

I did not take care of my hands and now I have carpal tunnel and tendonitis and nerve damage in both my hands. Take CARE of your hands. Do your stretches. Use braces if you need to and go to the doctor. Please take care of yourself. Hand surgery sucks.
