I noticed with a lot of your drawings there seems to be a particular color palette or overlay that you do. How do you choose what colors to use in the photo? Like the most recent one was blue theme while others are pink based or beige/orange/yellow.
That's a great question! :3 Honestly, I would say that it's largely instinctual (as in, I don't meticulously plan in advance what color I will choose for each monochromatic piece), but there is a method to my madness, I swear! 😄
The pink hue is one that I often use to depict jovial and/or somewhat romantic scenes, ranging from anecdotal to more heartfelt:
Tumblr media
Then there's the sepia tone, which is easily my favorite. 🥰 I always pick this one whenever I want to present something in a more "neutral" manner, but with a definite sense of warmth and nostalgia:
Tumblr media
And of course, another important one would be the bluish/cold shade, which is usually meant to convey a sad, wistful or solemn atmosphere:
Tumblr media
Basically, I use color to amplify moods, and I love playing with both hue and saturation to come up with a result as cohesive as possible. Each new piece is like a new puzzle that I discover as I'm piecing it together, and it's a process that I love to explore in my art!^^ 🎨

Trying out a new way of constructing faces which is going about as well as getting blood from a stone normally goes. Huff. Anyway, I need to keep plugging away to get a better understanding of form and structure instead of copying without understanding. This Dean worked out okay in the end, but he's a bit sad because I had to ditch three Cas portraits in a row. It was very sad. 😔

Crumb, Ranboo, Wilbur, and Charlie in the zombie apocalypses pt.1 w.i.p.
And a look into the creative process :D I'm giving this concept the title of "Zombie Apocalypse with The Crew"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ranboo has a pistol (you can kinda see it on his right side) but his weapon of choice is a metal bat and a bowie knife. He calls it "The WACK N STAB"
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm very proud of my nails into the crumbverses. Also I'm thinking about maybe the crew has a 5th member who is a doll or something of the sort. Just so they can joke around and keep high moral.
Tumblr media
You can see that he is wearing no armor but some cloth and duct tape arm guards and goggles. In my mind the apocalypse happened before there was ample time to react. Meaning that the gear they have is mostly fast makeshift items from common objects. Any extra things like the guns each person has or extra apparel is from looting.
Also... Jorts <3
Tumblr media
I'd say that at some point Charlie got lost and when he started following any human voice he could hear, he ended up right behind Ranboo. Who, instinctively stabbed what they thought was a zombie. mans took an L and a flesh wound.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The batchette is an idea from Instructables on Pinterest. I saw it while getting inspo and I could hear Charlie half screaming "Oh. my. gorshes... guys this power drill has given me a gift from God! BEHOLD... THE BATCHETTE!!!" Original image linked to this picture if you wanna get a better idea of what it looks like.
Tumblr media
Wilbur! I feel the need to change face shape a bit to better represent him. Basically everything on him has a story. What he was wearing at the initial invasion and start of the apocalypse was a white button up shirt and black pants. He was on his way to meet with a tour manager in a café but chaos is unleashed before he can. Later on traded out some looted boots for his dress shoes. And looted the harness which he uses to hold items against his body and keep them from noisily bouncing around in a bag or pocket. At some point he gets stuck in a house in the country side that has been nearly untouched. But he knows it's only a matter of time before he is found by his predators. He has no way of communicating to the group and needs to fend for himself as long as it takes to reconnect. Which could be months. For that reason he finds an undershirt so he can unbutton his dress shirt and have more mobility. He takes down a large curtain and uses it to wrap around his legs as armor. (Think about it, its hard to bite or stab through a thick curtain.) And just cuts his pants so that it doesn't encumber him. (He doesn't take them off because the curtains are only covering his legs. Plus pockets are good for survival)
Tumblr media
Once he's done with the curtain he finds some metal roller skate knee pads to help hold them in place and realizes that the curtain rod would make a decent weapon. Continuously looting the house he finds four kitchen knifes and some ninja stars in a bedroom (likely belonging to the family edgy teen) then attaches them using a hand held blow torch from the garage.
Tumblr media
When the night comes he is barricaded in a top bedroom and there are zombies pounding on the door. It is a moonless, pitch black night and the little bit of light points out the glimmer of a golden cross necklace atop a bedside table. While he is no man of God. He can use all the help he can get. And continues to wear it even when he is safe. Not in a religious way, but in an idea that there is a greater good out there. And the world will be reborn again... someday.
rando in the back: *sniffs and wipes a singular tear from his eye* tHat is sO beUtIfUL..
So yeah that's it for now. I hope you enjoyed this sneak peak and if you have any ideas or wanna join in lemme know! While I am doing this for fun I would love it others could enjoy it too. So if you like it or think your friends/viewers would, then please Reblog. :D but what ever you do, have a good day!

The writer must impose constraints. A painter who uses a canvas rather than a wall; a composer who opts for a given key - all establish a system of constraints. So do avant-garde artists, who try to avoid constraints - they simply construct others, unnoticed.

Heyy there,just wanna say that I absolutely love your linocuts, specially how funny and colored they are! Can't wait to SEE more of your creative/printing process :))
Thanks for the love !
I'm kinda dying to discuss this so I'll take the opportunity, if only for myself, to express my thoughts and structure them. Hope you don't mind me using your ask to do this.
Recently, the process has mostly involved tracing base images and modifying them before transferring onto a sheet of "engraving eraser" (idk what the english term for it is but someone likened it to what they call "keshigomu" in Japan, where it seems pretty well spread) which I think is just softer lino.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sir Clappemcheek the 1st, on carbon paper; and my trusty blade
I used to draw on regular erasers with a pencil but it's much messier, less precise and runs the risk of damaging the surface. There's also another kind I use that's a bit softer that you can press a pencil drawing on paper onto and it will transfer, skipping the carbon paper step. It's thicker, a little less precise and a little bit crumbly, but I like it a lot
Tumblr media Tumblr media
type of sheets I've been on
I try to do a healthy mix of drawing my own stuff and tracing. Because I haven't had any formal training, I figure the more I trace and tweak said traced designs, the better I'll get at standing on my own two feet and coming up with entirely original designs, while also not feeling too frustrated at myself and having fun carving cool designs.
Full disclosure: I have been using some AI generated pictures as a base for a number of those, because they provide a very convenient starting point, help me get poses right, or at least help me understand how a pose might be wrong and how to fix it. I'm not a fan (understatement) of generative AI's recent developments and the way some people revere it as some kind of higher power, but I still find it helpful as a learning tool, and I feel like my printmaking is transformative enough to be in a different category from the usual output of "prompters".
Tumblr media
the AI pic I traced the original sir Clappemcheek from
I would actually love to know people's thoughts on my use of it, good or bad or if they even care at all, as I've been feeling a little self-conscious/doubtful about it, in the face of the positive reaction some of my prints have been getting. This is also partly why I hesitate on the ethics of selling prints (at least those made using AI pics as a base).
Still, I do my best to not get complacent and keep drawing, or at least use other sources (the big tittied landsknecht was traced from an Albrecht Durer engraving and then bimbofied by hand)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
what Albrecht Durer always envisioned
As for ink, I use just good old ink pads that I press the stamps into until I get decent coverage. Still have to look into the little roller setup I usually see in linoprinting, but I also feel like that might work better for larger pieces than what I do, and for a "standard" format. With the way I tend to cut out the stamp from the sheet, pressing the paper on top of the stamp is more awkward than pressing the stamp on the paper.
These are some of my thoughts, however jumbled, and I'm very grateful for the interest my silly little crafts have generated.

The artistic process of ancient peoples is so interesting, I find. It helps bring them to life.
