- He/Him
Jake ▪️🏳️⚧️▪️ Silly & Queer▪️PNW artist
- Art programs you have but don't use
i have clip studio paint but its so intense i cannot for the life of my understand it lol
- Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)
left for sure but i flip it occasionally!
- What ideas come from when you were little
my oc Meleny and her small town has been kinda brewing in the back of my mind since i was 11 :)
- Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw
my fav character that's a bitch to draw is my oc fynn because of how his head fins are. the transparency is so difficult and i genuinely dread coloring him lol
- Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself
the most art i do at the moment is lil doodles and sketches and i don't think most of it is good enough to post online so it usually stays between me and my discord friends lol
- Anything that might inspire you subconsciously (e.g. this horse wasn't supposed to look like the Last Unicorn but I see it)
honestly not sure! i can't think of anything in particular really unless someone else points it out to me
- A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate
traditional art and mixed media. I'd love to try painting and sewing one day tho. its a big dream of mine to learn how to make puppets.
- What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in
I had a webcomic idea when i was 14/15 about a handful of teens that were elected to be in a semi virtual reality game show that was hosted by 2 robot brothers named brain and brawn and it was scifi/horror/hunger games kinda vibes. maybe I'll revisit those ocs one day.
- Favorite piece of clothing to draw
tight clothing/fantasy style clothing for sure :3
- Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what
youtube video essays, reddit stories, music, podcasts, or TV shows :3 (atm rewatching the x files)
- Easiest part of body to draw
face and torso!
- A creator who you admire but whose work isn't your thing
i cannot think of anyone off the top of my head.
- Any favorite motifs
eyes!!! mouths!! teeth!! Hands!! <3 <3
- Where do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)
in my bed on my laptop lol, its usually in my lap and i draw on the screen with my finger
- Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing
N/A if i don't like it i kinda blank out while i do it so i don't remember
- Do you eat/drink when drawing? if so, what
i cannot eat while i draw unless its like chips maybe but i have to drink or i will dehydrate myself lol
- Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.)
flowers :3
- Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy
i am bad at drawing most things so i don't have any lol
- Art styles nothing like your own but you like anyways
i could list a million people!! i love everyone i follows art style!! i guess my bfs art i adore his art so much its awesome he is so cool
- What physical exercises do you do before drawing, if any
finger and wrist stretches are a must
- Do you use different layer modes
ye i liberally use clipping layers when coloring
- Do your references include stock images
sometimes! i have a entire Pinterest board of poses
- Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by
anime. whenever my dad sees my art he's like "wow just like anime!" and im like... where
- What's a piece that got a wildly different interpretation from what you intended
i dont really get many comments so i dont have any pieces like that < . <; i wish i got more comments they make me happy
- Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with
i try to but sometimes i forget
- Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)
none sadly i'd loved to do that one day tho!
- Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically
dungeon meshi, homestuck, dreamworks older 2D animations
- What piece of yours do you think is underrated
i am honestly not to sure, i feel rather neutral about most of my art lol
i think im just gonna post a handful of oc refs i havent posted! then maybe i'll do a lil journal to ask which ocs you guys would like to draw :] and then maybe i'll post some of the adopts ive done recently
anndd i have run out of art im willing to post here lol. I don't draw super often so I hope you guys will be patient with me and stick around :)
ngl I kinda wanna not post my old homestuck art anymore, I might do a few more pieces and then move on to my newer stuff cus I am just not into homestuck anymore and don't want to make my entire gallery that. I'll post a few more pieces but if you want to see more, you can see it on my tumblr page linked in the top corner :)
I'll just be posting my normal content after that (my ocs mainly, as I find fanart extremely draining to do)
