Im just feeling a certain way rn
Hey y'all. Here's something for you.
Jubilee in Peril Commission
An animation commission that may explain my extended slow down in posting around here, and why I rarely take animation commissions. Fun as it is to bring something to life, its often very time consuming. In fact I employed the aid of Toonboom to try and ease some of the workload, which it did! ^_^ though at the expense of the hand drawn quality I love so much ^^;
In any case I was commissioned to have Jubilee of the X-men being bound with a kerchief over her mouth by gloved hands ^_^
A fun project all things considered, though I think I’ll shy away from many other animation commissions in the future. I much rather save those large scale projects for my own ideas and passions ^_^ at least for now.
I hope you’re all having a lovely Monday!
All my love,
~FtK
Grimer! ^_^ I was a little bored so I doodled a pokemon. If anyone has a pokemon they’d like me to sketch, feel free to shout out suggestions ^^
Winnie’s Awooo
I decided I wanted to get some practice using Photoshop’s animation tools, and thought I’d give my little Winnie pose some more life in the process ^__^
I actually really enjoyed the photoshop tools, I had lots more control on my line cleanup than I do with vector programs I use normally ^^ hopefully I’ll get a little bit better with navigating the program next time, but for now I wanted to share my little Winnie howl animation with you all ^_^
I hope you all had a super lovely weekend <3
All my love,

Candy Cornfusion
Getting into the Holiday spirit while I practice doodling with some new water color brushes ^_^

Hope you’re all having a lovely evening

Bob Ross is one of my favorite people… I look to him for inspiration. I admire his positivity. And I see a lot of who I want to be in him. Not for his talents so much, although he’s an outstanding artist, but for his patience, and his openness..his softness. His gentle strength.
I have had some people recently approach me, send me emails, or texts..saying that they appreciate, or look up to my positive outlook or my attempts at kindness and, honestly I don’t feel all that deserving of that ‘admiration’ … I don’t even have a word I can call it that makes me feel comfortable. I sound boastful, but I don’t mean to be, really.. I’m only saying it at all because lately I have been very negative…frightened, and lashing out…curt and loud…bitter..and have just been very disappointed in myself.
I’m far from perfect, I’m far from good, but I’m trying…and when I really need help or direction, some way to put my life back on track, I try and look at Bob Ross.He always make me feel better. Not just emotionally, but … existentially.
He makes me feel better. like a better person… and I really want to try to be better for you all. Kinder, Warmer. Stronger.
I don’t know how much I have to offer, but I promise to be as positive as I can be, even in these not so positive times. We need positivity.
No matter what happens I want to be kind, and understanding, and loving, and forgiving, and I’m going to try.
and I hope you’ll all be positive too ^_^ we need to be kind, all of us. For as long as we can, and then longer than that.
and so, that ends my little ramble, but I just had to say something, and draw a little something too.
All my love,
~FtK
