10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw

Those cunty vampire shirts... you know the ones... Tbh anything with big flowy sleeves or skirts!

14. Any favorite motifs

I love including little stars or flowery symbols, tho I don't know that much about flower language so it doesn't come to use that much

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy

I think hands? I haven't had trouble with them in a long time and find them kinda fun to draw. Tho tbh at this point I could probably make a solid attempt at a rollerskate without looking at refs <3

11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what?

I'm a YouTube video essay girly! I gotta have those really long ones but it also has to be either entertaining or be about stuff I care abt or else I'll get annoyed at the grey background noise...

22. What physical exercises do you do before drawing, if any?

I neglect those :( BUT while drawing and randomly during the day I do wrist and neck exercises! But alas today I have neck pains...

Weirdly Specific Artist Ask Game

Didn't see a lot of artist ask games, wanted to make a silly one.

(I wrote this while sick out of my mind last year and it's been collecting dust in my drafts, I might as well let it run free) 1. Art programs you have but don't use

2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)

3. What ideas come from when you were little

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw

5. Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself

6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously (i.e. this horse wasn't supposed to look like the Last Unicorn but I see it)

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

9. What are your file name conventions

12. Easiest part of body to draw

13. A creator who you admire but whose work isn't your thing

25. Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by
