nineteen ✦ illustrator ✦ he/him | carrd | in my magnus archives era (<- threat)

new years resolution ideas for you that are actually fun and not just based on feeding your insecurities or being "productive":

  • try out a new recipe every fortnight
  • competitively collect photographs of birds with your friends (person to photograph the most unique bird species wins)
  • each month explore one new music genre you're not familiar with
  • comment on every ao3 fic/chapter you read
  • create a list of words you like and add to it throughout the year every time you find a new one
  • when you want to, draw some absolutely unhinged nonsense and post it on tumblr dot com so we can all clap and cheer

you need to make more self-indulgent art btw. hyper-specific self-indulgent niche shit that appeals to You Specifically and maybe nobody else will get it or even like it but that's the point.

but my niche stuff is too niche for anyone else to like it ):

if evolution said that, we'd have stayed as prokaryotic cells forever. fuck what everyone else thinks. your joy is reason enough.

always remember: you're one in a million! that means there are at least 8263 other "you"s out there. kill them, before they kill you.

oh huh just realised everyone i know is properly informed now, so i can hard launch being trans on the art blog. fully forgot about that lmao i was too busy being employed. anyway yeah, whatever. i'm a guy. fork found in kitchen. i wasn't so much doing a bad job at hiding that fact as i was just sort of... forgetting to hide it in the first place.

the magnus archives is great because there can be a spider the size of my hand watching me from the wall and, yes, i will still have a panic attack while standing in the corner brandishing a book at the wretched creature like a shield, but afterwards i get to make a silly little joke about annabelle cane so it's all alright really (<- incredibly sleep deprived from this very situation)

anyone got any tma characters/rarepairs they wish there was more fanart of? send an ask in and i May attempt it.

obligatory disclaimer: this is not a guarantee i will get around to it, i'm a busy guy and i have several projects i'm working on outside of fanart BUT i will absolutely make a solid attempt at getting some done. hopefully. provided nothing Happens.
