Doodlebug
may i ask about your art process?
Of course!! Although Iβm not the best when it comes to documenting the process of my personal work, I can try explaining it. I also included my process for my linocuts, in case anyone was wondering.
My digital illustrations usually start with mindless doodles, unless I want to draw something very specific. I donβt worry about doodles looking perfect or the anatomy being on point, I just draw whatever I want and whatever comes to my mind at that point. I feel that with such an attitude while drawing you can accidentally come up with something interesting and just have fun.
I also donβt know if it is a bad habit or not but I usually doodle on one canvas for weeks and if I turn on all of the layers, my canvases tend to look something like this
(while preparing this ask I actually found so many unfinished doodles which I now want to finishβ¦)
For example, my latest kanaya illustration started from this doodle. I didnβt have any particular idea for it in mind and I just wanted to experiment with it. When working on it, I just decided to go for something simple, perhaps with negative space composition and a colour accent. And after deciding what I wanted to do with the doodle itβs just drawing until I like how it looks and think itβs finished.
I, unfortunately, donβt have that many process photos as I feel like my process is quite basic, similar to traditional illustration process+I like to draw on one layer or merge all layers together, but I have this picture I took for my friend while drawing. I was trying to figure out how to position the hand.
With my linocuts, the process is a bit more straightforward with not so much experimentation involved. I start with an idea in mind, for example, for my latest linocut I really wanted to do something with erisol, possibly something small in terms of size, A6 or A5, and with two colours. I then begin working on the sketch, usually I make a digital sketch but for this one I first made a traditional sketch and then refined it digitally.
I then print my digital sketch, transfer it onto the lino block, carve and print!Β
Aaand thatβs it. Hope you enjoyed!!Β As a bonus, have this yellow pikmin doodle I found in one of my canvases. I think itβs very silly.

INTJs have this annoyingly calm demeanor that perceives everything will be alright. A plan fails? It's a learning experience.
You did not achieve your goal? It's still part of the stepping stone towards better progress.
You overlooked the details? Then it will be considered the next time. Do we think we're better than you? Hardly! INTJs are just competent and we trust completely in our skills and intellect.
Do we want to be better than everyone else? Well, we can't really lie about that category however it barely scratches the surface of our sense of purpose, integrity, and philosophy...
If we think we have things, actions, habits, etc. to improve for necessary means--as we see fit, we simply will. Keep an intj close and earn their trust... and you'll surely find yourself a valuable piece to their grand schemes in life. Per se, INTJs believe in equal exchange... trust that you won't be empty handed in any bargain.

"READ MY DNI" no. use your block button like an adult. i'm not scrolling through the many-paragraphs-long pinned posts of every blog i reblog something from. if you insist certain types of people aren't welcome in the notes of your posts then it's your responsibility to curate that. or choose a closed social media platform like facebook or instagram. or go and live in a barn away from humanity if you really don't like sharing the world with people who are different from you
