Glowsticks

 Knew I forgot to do something last night, despite thinking about it multiple times and musing about what kind of art I'd insert into the timeline for my blog this week.

Well! Better late than never, as the kids say! And no harm done. I am still well within my deadline for posting- skipping two Saturdays in a row is not something I'd let happen on my watch. Not today, anyway! XD

Got nostalgic for glowsticks, so of course had to draw some with my emotional kiddies a few days ago.
I need to draw glowy things more often. It's way too much fun

Freezing Flight's Fall

Out of all the things I expected to do this week, getting a brief but intense obsession with My Little Pony and then diving headfirst into a new AU idea for my Rose Knights story was not on my bingo card! Yet here we are, with me having done exactly that!

On the one hand, I'm a little sad I didn't have enough time to explore all the ideas and concepts I had for the pastel ponies. But on the other hand, I'm deeply relieved to experience a hyperfixation that lasted ONLY for a few days. I was getting exhausted with the obsessions that lasted for months at a time. This one at least was polite and a fun snack for my brain.

We'll see if this new RK AU we've got is going to be another short burst of excitement or whether it's here for the long haul. But we'll find out soon enough, I think!

Bristly sketches

Right! I've done my best to play video games, sleep and readjust to daylight savings time, and more or less give myself every opportunity to "put down the pen and not worry about drawing for a few minutes". And there has been some success!

And then I still turn around and do stuff like this. Because of course I would. XD 

On the plus side, I think my burnout isn't as bad as it could be. And if I'm careful, maybe I can think about a big drawing project in another few days or a week.
What kind of big drawing project will remain to be seen, but the surprise won't be a bad thing. Whether it's RK, another project with my IO kiddies, or something else entirely? We'll see :3

Daily dose of Joy

Somehow after spending almost the entire month of September drawing and making comics with nary a break in the flow except to crash out for a day at a time, I am now finding myself in the tell-tale signs of burnout! Which shouldn't surprise me, yet somehow does because my short memory is only rivaled by my inability to realize when it's time to quit and rest.

But such it is!
I'll make an attempt to take it easy and play video games later. But until then, I've still got a small surplus of art I've made in the last week, so might as well use it for something.

Joy won't be looking so perky and vibrant for long, but that's besides the point.
