Another funky update

Sincerest apologies :0
Yes, i have missed three whole weeks worth of updates for no good reason, the shock, the horror! In truth, i have still been doing my little daily creative tasks, they’ve just been slow. I’ve been enrolled on a course to aid my job seeking ventures and its taking up too much time to be…

Embracing the cringe
I fear i do not have much to show for my creative ventures this week, hence the delay. I decided to write down a full story for my original characters, i am not a writer and it shows, but the process is a fun way to actually use my brain hehe, so I shan’t quit.…

A very exciting update
I’m one step closer to my dreams of looking like the octopus super fan that i truly am! Thanks to handy dandy fabric paint and oodles of patience i am no the proud owner of not only a pair of octopus shoes, but also, an octopus jacket! I’m so happy with how these turned out,…

Another silly man…. Among other things
I do feel like I’m entering a “being creative because i have to” phase in my year of art. I fear the quality of what I’m making is severely lacking because I’m really not motivated to think about anything too much. I’m doing the things, and I’m enjoying the process, so I’m classing all these…

Low stakes projects
Maintaining a goal of being creative everyday sometimes feels a bit daunting. I think where i usually go wrong is when i get it in my head that i need to finish whatever project i start, or that it has to be “cool” or interesting in some way, that i absolutely HAVE to better myself…

New projects
Starting strong with a bit of sculpting fun! I designed a cute pen holder inspired by alice in wonderland, featuring a fake drippy candle, an oversized spool of thread, a tea cup and mushrooms. I mainly wanted to make this because i desperately wanted to work with a big ol slab of clay, i did…

A resolution
This year’s resolution is simple on paper, but I’m sure it will be a challenge to keep up with, given my track record; i must be creative everyday. I’m not being silly, I’m not saying i must make complete works of art every day, just dedicate at least 20 minutes everyday to doing something creative.…

The Christmas dolls; revealed!
I can finally showcase these cuties!!! These were so fun to see come together, and despite my lack of sewing enthusiasm, I absolutely will be making more (i may or may not have already started making more). The plan for the project was pretty simple, sketches where mainly to have a vague plan of the…

A small bit of painterly progress
I have retrieved my painting from behind my wardrobe and have added to it. Now, full disclosure, the original additions were the result of a nice little crash out, a wee temper tantrum after a bad week… It got angsty… It got very “im 14 and this is deep”. But I’m not 14… Im 24….…

Just a small update again, axel is making good progress, his outfit is particularly decorated, his face is on his head, his nails and hooves are repainted. Now to begin adding his hair. I’d also really like to carry on adding accessories, i want him to look a bit… Much. The dolls are also developing…

Christmas project
I have unfortunately not made any progress on Axel, his face plate took a little longer then anticipated and by the time he was dry enough for paint, I’d already begun the next ridiculously hefty project. Last year i made my friends their own curiosity bear, it went down quite well and after asking them…

Project update
So, to start I’ll let it be known that an updated Axel bear is currently in progress, I’ll drop the new face sculpt here alongside the original. I’m really trying to inject more personality into my bear faces now, i think some of my old ones were kinda meh. Ill of course post any updates…

Rest in pieces, original Gabriel
I have decided it is time to say goodbye to some of the original Gabriel pieces I’ve made over the years, i have healed my boy and its time to update the pieces of him i have on display. So first to go was the Gabriel doll repaint, it was a decent first attempt, but…
