Hi! I’m daypeep I make plushies and talk a lot about chickens
oddly specific artist questions meme! (I might have skipped some questions I didn’t know how to answer)
-
Art programs you have but don't use
Aseprite! I do most of my pixel art in procreate despite having access to a better program lol -
Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)
Forward! Especially using the mirror tool -
Fav character/subject that's a pain to draw
Chickens with open beaks especially at odd angles and realistic bird feet -
Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself
I try to post as much of my plush work as possible but I’m always doodling my ocs and doing art trades with friends -
A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate
crochet, knitting, musical artists and fursuit makers! (I’ve worked with fur on occasion and it’s not easy! You guys are seriously talented) -
What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in
Somewhere I may have a second generation of Furby fabric printed… I’ll get back to it eventually -
Favorite piece of clothing to draw
Hoodies or long dresses! -
Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what
I watch a lot of anime while I sew lol I also listen to a lot of music (usually anime soundtracks or English covers) but recently I’ve been enjoying the Drawfee show! -
Easiest part of body to draw
Eyes! The whole face is usually a lot of fun -
Any favorite motifs
Galaxy/starry prints, mushrooms and skulls! I’m also immediately drawn to anything with a chicken on it -
Where do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)
I usually draw while sitting on the couch or outside while watching the chickens! I do most of my sewing at a desk -
Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing
Photography sometimes? I love taking pictures but obsess over quality when it comes to Etsy listings so sometimes it can be a bit frustrating when I can’t get the colors to look right -
Do you eat/drink when drawing? if so, what
I don’t usually bring food with me while I sew but like having little treats! Like some M&Ms or jellybeans so snack on while I work -
Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.)
Mushrooms! -
Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy
birds! -
Art styles nothing like your own but you like anyways
People who use crazy shapes and harsh lines/angles are so cool! Everything I draw is so round in comparison -
Do you use different layer modes
yes! Love using multiply layers for all kinds of shading and effects -
Do your references include stock images
sometimes! i just grab whatever inspires me off google -
Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with
i don’t usually do warmup drawings but I’m constantly making chicken doodles! -
Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)
Nothing major yet! Just smaller things with online friends -
What piece of yours do you think is underrated
probably my Stingrays! they’re one of my favorite creations but didn’t sell as well as I hoped (pretty sure it’s because of their really small size)
With the help of some Sheezyart Discord members I managed to put a countdown clock on my profile page! (Thanks again!)
I plan on putting a shop update together on may 13th with my new patchwork chickens!
For both the Rooster and hen body types
they will be made to order and made with random colors! (You’ll be able to list a couple of your favorite colors and least favorites but the overall design will be randomized)
Until then I’ll try to post new duckling and patchwork pictures daily with the occasional chicken picture or other projects here and there
Thank you all so much for all the love on my posts 🥰
I think I finally settled on a profile layout 🥳
Go check it out and let me know what you guys think! Let me know if I missed any spelling errors 😅
I added a big pinboard up top featuring a bunch of unsold plushies you can currently find on my Etsy shop!

ART:
favorite medium: tie between digital art and plush making!

favorite artists/inspiration: Bob Ross was a huge inspiration! Choly knight’s plushies really inspired me to start making my own patterns and embroidery files
