What I do with my life and what I steal from the art room is none of your concern.

Bakugo: oh here’s a blue colored pencil-
Y/n: *rips it out of his hands glaring at him and hands it to Deku*
Deku: Oh! Cool a blue pencil ☺️
Bakugo: OI WHAT THE HE-
• You gave Deku a large painting of him and all night for his room
• He cried like a baby so did all might but we ain’t ready for that convo
• Sometimes when you’re painting you spend hours on end painting and frantically mixing colors - and you forget to eat
• When Deku notices he buys you your favorite takeout and leaves it in your room while you’re trying out different shades of whatever color with your headphones shoved in
• When you smell the food you look around and see neatly wrapped up and a water bottle next to it

• He doesn’t really like doing arts and crafts but if it’s for something you want, like a cute painting with your hand prints he’ll do it for you
• When you go out and he’s not training/isn’t busy he definitely sharpens your pencils, organizes your art supplies, and cleans you brushes/your paint water for you
• When you throw yourself into a piece of art and work for a long time he physically drags you out of your room
Y/n: No! I have to finish it I was almost done
Todoroki: You weren’t, You weren’t even half way
• He knows your art habits inside and out so you can’t fool the boy you definitely can but you would rather not
• He also gets a tad bit sad when you focus more on your art rather than him, and you notice because he sits on your bed pouting
• He’s watched a few Bob Ross tutorials because he’s a man of culture he wants to learn some basic painting techniques so he could join you in painting :’)
• He just loves doing the little things for you and definitely loves seeing your happiness when he does said little things 🥺

- he’d sharpen your pencils for you and always get you any supplies you need

- if you ever gave him any artwork then he’d cherish it forever. frame it up in his room. yep.
- he’d be SO happy if you gave him any art

- he’d always make sure you didn’t skip any meals because of working on some art projects
- he’ll even make you food while you work
- if you ever drew him, he’d cry

Im doing all the artist asks cuz im most likely not getting any asks and i want to answer these
1) traditional but i like digital cuz i can do more things
2) uuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
3) not counting school, 1
4) i have DA but I rarely use it i mainly just post art here
5) animals and fictional creechurs
6) hands
7) when im drawing things that are really difficult, when i dont have the design memorized, and for really detailed drawings
8) jus for fun, cant make money off my art and im not really the best at it
9) a lot
10) no
11) im not sure i just follow blogs based on my current hyperfixation
12) sure
13) i like to draw for people close to me or if its someone I really admire. I show affection thru gifts and since all the people im close with arent in my area i can only draw for em and i think its more personal because im making the gift myself with my skills and time <3
14) just with icy sometimes
15) what counts as average i draw pretty fast
16) i draw more cuz back then my fidgets and stuff were seen as ‘distractions’
17) not completely. I can mostly tell people younger than me how to improve and can tell others that references arent anything to be embarrassed about but thats kinda about it. Its not easy for me to give constructive criticism and others are more experienced than me so im not the best to ask
18) perspective ig and some anatomy cuz thats difficult. Im often staring at dogs and cats to see how they move their legs
19) hands and extremely detailed things
20) circle /hj
21) no ill get frustrated really fast and just quit
22) im not sure. My style is still similar to how it was in 6th grade but you can tell I understand things way better like i drew scenes of bluestars prophecy in the book my first time reading it (in pen which I really regret) and ive redrawn them like a couple days ago so im putting some under the cut
23) kinda an even mix of both
24) both
25) depends on how im feeling
26) ibis paint x on my phone and krita on my pc + drawing tablet
27) depends on whos in the piece, the bg, the effects, ect
28) i use a mechanical pencil because i dont have to sharpen it
29) I usually do big pieces on digital but ill always do a sketch on paper, take a pic, and then trace it in digital
30) i dont think anything. I draw because its fun and its one of my coping methods
Heres bluefur getting her nine lives
Bluestar looking at rusty
Bluestar losing her ninth life
Bluestar looking over thunderclan (you can tell i was lazy back then)
And bluefur yelling about her lost kits

Vincent Dating A Creative S/O
Headcannons for Vincent Sinclair having a S/o whos crafty: - For whatever reason, you ended up as a living residence of Ambrose, a feat that was unheard of. But you managed it, now living as part of the Sinclairs little town. Vincent was instantly drawn to you after your sketch book fell out of your bag. He flicked through the pages, his fingers tracing the delicate lines and rough sketches. - He would always be listening to you, even if you didn’t think he was. Like if you mumbled to yourself that you needed a sharpener, it would appear within an hour. - If you knit or crochet, he would love it when you sat down in the wax room with him, both working away silently but comfortably. It would remind him of those ‘ideal’ family pictures he had seen. - You always make things for him. Whether it’s a painting of Ambrose from the top of the hill, a pair of knitted gloves or some pottery, he would treasure each item. - Compliments from both sides. - Vincent likes to think of you as his muse. Your beauty drives him forward, wishing to replicate it in his art work. In the beginning, before you got together, he would be unable to stop thinking about you. it would drive him crazy, especially at night or when he was trying to work. Out of frustration, he would grab a sketch book and start drawing you, hoping that if he put pencil to paper, that he might be able to clear his head for a moment. But he quickly became obsessed, especially if you find the drawing and compliment them. - In fact, that would be the reason any sort of confession might come. You would find this beautiful drawing of yourself and make a joke about it, something along the lines of “im not that beautiful” or “you’ve drawn me too pretty”. Vincent would shake his head, reaching out to push a strand of hair away from your face and your laughter would stop as he stared down at you. in that moment, you would realise he really does see you as that beautiful. - You would persuade Vincent to take off his mask when he was around you with a single phrase. “Me and you, we’re artists. We see beauty in things that other might not. I see beauty in you without the mask. I always have.” - As things got more intimate between each other, Vincent found himself wanting to draw you with… less clothes, a request he never voiced. But you wanted the same thing. One night, you came to the wax room, only wearing a nightgown. Vincent thought nothing of it, just assuming you had on a nightie or short and top under neither, until you asked him to draw you naked. He would nearly fall out his chair and scramble to grab paper and a pencil. The two of you would retreat to your room and, as Vincent worked, his heart hammered in his chest. - If you had a knack for realism in your art work, he would try to make sure his sculptures are as realistic as possible, which would lead you to try be better at realism. You and Vincent pushed each other in the best possible way, always improving and getting better because the other improved and got better. - Making things for the other Sinclair brothers. Bo would act like he didn’t care, but you knew he always walked with a extra bounce in his step after he received a gift. Lester would be over the moon, your gifts being displayed or worn wherever he could. - During winter, your handmade gloves, scarves, hats and sweaters where all the Sinclair family wore. You couldn’t help but laugh if Lester and Bo get into and argument about whos hat is whos, or what colour you had given to each of them.

𝓶𝓾𝓼𝓮 𝓭𝓲𝓼𝓼𝓮𝓻𝓽𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷
sutton attwood was born the youngest of four children , to her mother marie , and her father , alexander . marie and alexander had been married for the last twenty - seven years , having kids in their younger years , happily in love , ready to start a family . after her three siblings were born , there was a long gap until her own arrival , an accident that her parents had no reason to expect . but she came anyway , arriving into the attwood family , lungs aching as she cried & cried .
as a young girl , sutton was very well - behaved , but also very sensitive . she was careful to mind her manners , knowing the consequence of having her elbows on the table , or neglecting to fold her napkin across her lap . her parents had high standards & expectations , strict rules that they enforced to ensure their daughter stayed within the mold of the rest , the two of them scared that , with sutton being the anomaly , she may have the tendency to try to break from the restraints they had confined the rest of their kids in .
for most of her adolescence , the girl was extremely confined , repressed ; she had no way of exhibiting her freedom , expression , or creativity , except for one thing -- ballet . she had started as soon as she could walk , her parents having her join on the premonition it would be a good outlet for her , a way to teach her the discipline they were sure she would need . little did they know she would end up loving ballet , naturally poised for such a difficult art form , her grace & athleticism preceding her wildest dreams as she continued to train & train , changing dance companies over the years as she became better & better .
being raised irish - catholic , she has a strict church schedule , attending mass every saturday with her whole family , & sometimes during the week to help her church organize youth groups , bible study , & activities of the same ilk . being heavily involved in the church only served to reinforce her parents warnings , the people around her sure to remind her that if she were to sin , she was damned to an eternity of suffering . with that in mind , sutton always navigated the world as carefully as she could . her overall mindset was to stay out of trouble , avoiding temptation as she came across it . her will power is something that she praises herself for , being able to resist drugs , sex , & alcohol her entire life .
due to her kind demeanor , she has the tendency to be taken advantage of , her niceness taken as weakness over the years as people took the chance to belittle or berate her , but despite it , her exterior has never hardened , the girl’s heart forever warn & displayed on her sleeve .
since coming to hollingsworth , the girl has done her best to maintain her pristine image , her reputation untainted by the things a college experience may promise to tarnish . but somehow , she’s sidestepped trouble up until now -- senior year . as a kappa , she has the intention only to maintain her house’s top spot , her competitive nature from dancing making it so that her kindness isn’t always necessarily extended to the members of other sororities , but a part of her can’t help but still smile in other girl’s directions , happy to have them as a friend instead of an enemy . the cutthroat mentality of kappa house is overwhelming , but with chaise as president , sutton is even more nervous to see what happens .
with the promise of new experiences on the horizon , sutton intends to keep up the good work . to maintain her 4.0 gpa , to keep her virginity & promise to god intact , & to continue dancing without having any drama . whose gonna tell her .....
𝔀𝓪𝓷𝓽𝓮𝓭 𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓷𝓮𝓬𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷𝓼
tbh ! i want her BEST FRIEND , one - sides friendship ( i . e . sutton bothering them & always being nice , inevitably driving them crazy ) , her CRUSH ( this is a big one bcos ... well ... v*rgin or what not jlkjlajskdjaldaj but yes could be mutual / one - sided ) , someone she tutors bcos she’s a smart gal ! her confidant , her ex - best friend ( maybe dropped her bcos when they came into the college they were both wholesome & they gave into the whole greek lifestyle , losing themselves / sutton along the way :/ ) um ! i can’t think of anything else rn but u know me ... lets go off chem <3 ok , that’s all for now , folks !

Yo so I've been thinking (because who doesnt love that horror), and I've realised something:
School therapy admissions really really suck. Dont get me wrong, having the option of therapy within schools is great (although the therapy itself sucks dick, but that's not this story) but the admission process sucks ass.
Let me tell you the story of my GCSE (so age 14-16 for you Non-UK guys) art class:
Now then, we were 14. We were in our first term (ish) of our GCSEs and we were just starting our first art projects. The project title was "inside/outside".
My table (because we chose where we sat) contained me, my best friend, and two of our other friends. We were all in that edgy/emo stage of teenagerdom.
Everyone, except me, got sent to the school counsellor for our art books at least once throughout the school year.
(TW) My best friend got sent because she Seneca Crane-ed a wooden art model on the front of her book as a trigger warning, glued in pencil sharpener blades throughout her book (which fell out somewhere during the 2 years, never to be found. We found it amusing. Again, we were that group) and faked some self-harm photos. Fair enough. It was used as evidence to her counsellors because she was already going.
Another one of my friends got sent because he was drawing an awful lot of very graphic and violent art. Again. Fair enough.
My other friend got sent because she glued thick shards of blunted glass into her book for the aesthetic as it was something one of the artists she was studying had done. It was blunted, small, and obviously done for the view of it. There was nothing, at all, even slightly concerning about it. They were on 2 pages and there were roses on the pages.
I, the only one in the group not sent to the therapist for our art, spent 3 months on a book that literally could've been titled "I fucking hate myself". The whole thing was centred around each of the senses and the negative things you feel. Negative thoughts (brain), horrific views (eyes), slurs and insults (ears). The mouth section of it was an optical illusion that said "I'm fine" one way and "save me" the other. It was an 80 page book and I spent 3 weeks on the final piece. I was never even asked anything.
Dont get me wrong, I would've been angry and upset if I had been sent. However, looking back, I really should have been. A year before I'd been sent for self harm. Two years later I'd be sent because I was having regular breakdowns in class from the stress of A-levels, had started to seriously self harm (again), and wasnt eating properly.
No one ever asked me why I decided to create that artwork. Why I could list a full page of different insults and slurs, a full page of horrible thoughts and half a page of horrific sights. Why I spent 4 pages creating a mirror image of "Im fine" to say "save me".
All because a teacher decided I wasnt drastically in need of it? A teacher decided that. How much would people have been outraged if I'd taken my own life, that was found and nothing had been done?
I was close quite a few times those years.
The book was displayed for others in any year (and our school is for ages 11-18) to see.
Someone. Shouldve. Mentioned. It.

Becoming me
Why did I stop being religious? I mean a trillion reasons but most of the fun ones came later. After my dad and my ex step mother had their "incident" and separated I didnt really have anyone to hang out with on shabbos when I was there. When I was with my mother, it wasnt much better as I really didnt get along with my stepfather (which I now realize was just because I was traumatized and didnt want any step parents near me). I did try to have some sort of relationship with my family but they didnt understand me and honestly I didnt really feel like they were family. They were just some strange people who for some reason wanted me to hang out with them for literally no reason as they never really spoke to me or anything. So I was alone during a time where I really shouldnt have been. I didnt have many friends and the couple I had, i didnt feel comfortable telling them what had happened. We were young and bad things hadnt happened to any of us yet so I kind of just cut them all off. I think they were offended but i just couldnt have them know that my life was no longer sweet and innocent like theirs. So then came high school and a few months later...and then came the nervous breakdown. It was on shabbos. If I had just been able to pick up my phone and call someone I would have been okay ( I now recognize that I should have and it would have been forgivable but at the time i couldnt imagine ever breaking shabbos). So i just crumbled. I never attempted suicide, though I wanted to desperately that night, because I figured that whatever consequences there are for that were worse that living and sticking it out, so I just cried and prayed and begged hashem to let me sleep and to please not wake me up in the morning I didnt know much about drugs or alcohol at the time so I just tried to knock myself out my banging my head against things. Eventually I cried myself to sleep telling myself that I had to at least pull myself out of this enough to recognize that there had to be a lesson learnt from this whole thing and I did find it and I know that was what saved me and I will always be proud of that. This was my first experience with sleep paralysis which i was never able to explain but was a terrifying thing. I couldnt move or wake up but I was hearing people screaming at me, shrieking with laughter and it was utterly horrifying. when I woke up I had claw marks all over my arms. I tried to say modeh ani, but said it through tears as if I was accepting a punishment. I still have trouble saying it to this day. I was never the same after that. I still kept shabbos but would break down every friday night. My mother stopped making me come down for meals (but always set my place at the table for me no matter what and for some reason as I am writing this entire thing, this part is what bring me to tears. She is literally the best person in the world.) and i would just go up to my room and cry and pray and beg hashem to please help me keep shabbos in any way because it was getting to be too painful as it was. I started dreading shabbos and getting anxiety even by Wednesday because I knew it meant 24 hours of more pain. I would literally just cry through the whole thing. I wasnt drinking yet but I would resort to hurting myself physically in any way I could think of because for some reason that was what helped me sleep. I have no idea why. I would wake up covered in bruises all over my body and just look in the mirror and cry more until it was over ...then wait till the next week. Eventually I took to drinking, I was still a teenager so I would sneak out my window to the liqueur shop that accepted my fake id and just drink myself into a coma. All this time praying and begging for hashem to take this pain away so that I could keep shabbos because I wasnt sure how much longer I could hold on. Eventually I was healthy enough to make some new friends. They werent jewish and I did stop keeping shabbos slowly. first thing I did was leave the TV on so that I would be able to pull myself out of the sleep paralysis...eventually I would turn it on or off....eventually I would go out with my friends and do whatever they did because I just couldnt anymore. I never stopped praying and I never stopped telling hashem that I would love to keep shabbos again if he would only help me find a community and friends to do it with. After i stopped keeping shabbos, everything else followed. I always kept to a standard of kosher but I no longer had any jewish friends. My parents had pulled me out of my old high school after I had been rushed to the ER when I had slashed my leg with a pencil sharpener blade and Id spent some time in a mental hospital and my new school was much more relaxed, but it was far and I was the only person in the grade. (yes that is the end of that sentence. it was a small school and my grade consisted of only me..). I was terribly lonely and the friends I found were from concerts, art school and various parties. Many of them were good people and really did help me as at that time it was my life that needed saving and not just my faith. i missed shabbos terribly. It was an empty space that I couldnt even acknowledge because it was too painful and too far away, picturing myself at a shabbos table full of friends and family, sitting on the couch reading books together, going for walks, and of course that feeling that only shabbos can give you which I hadnt felt in years. Anyway like i said after shabbos, everything else follows. Shabbos nurtures our emunah and mine was fading and fast. It was a terribly painful experience. I thought about death constantly and it absolutely terrified me. I thought to myself one night, during a particular bad moment (I believe i was anorexic and drinking constantly at the time, having sex with whoever whenever) that I thought to myself...this is hell. This is what our hell is. Being distant and empty and losing touch with any and all purpose. It sounds basic it really does but it was a horrible feeling and I truly understood what kind of punishment kaaret could be. I dont remember exaclty what went on for how long but thats basically how it went. It took me a long time to accept that I was no longer "religious". I told my mother this once and she told me that I am religious and Im just having a hard time but I still keep mitzvot and guide my life by the torah as much as I can and I'm so grateful to her for that. She insisted on keeping the title for me and I am sure it saved me in some way. I never skipped a major fast and yom kippur was coming up. I was nervous as i never broke chag on yom kippur and i knew I had a lot to atone for and to think about. I was in a really terrible place and felt like my soul was actually dying and i cant describe how much it hurt. I sat on the edge of my bed as the chag came in and wept for a good couple of hours. eventually I was in a panick and couldn't catch my breath. I prayed desperately for strength and for comfort and most importantly some sort of direction so that I didnt have to do this anymore. I was done I didnt want to be like this. Suddenly a calm came over me. I literally felt it spread from my head to my fingertips down to my knees and toes and i got my breath back...a voice inside my head then spoke to me (In my own language which I always appreciated about epiphanies) and said...."lets do this. let get the fuck to Israel"....I guess the rest is history. I called my dad after chag and said " i need to go back" and it turned out they had just decided to have my brothers bar mitzvah there so yeah..that happened. It was never said that I was going to be staying in Israel but my mother got me an extra suitcase and made sure I had my papers with me "just in case. The night before I left my mom came in to talk to be sobbing like ive never seen her cry before so I told her "mommy dont. Ill visit."..i think that was the first time we kinda said anything about it out loud. she said (well, hiccuped, as she could barely get the words out) "I want you to be happy. I just wish that it could be here. But im proud of you".When we got to the airport and we were boarding the plane my eyes filled with tears and the same little voice in my head said "its over. You did it you're going. Its gonna happen you're gonna be okay" and I had the same feeling when I got to the kotel ( which i made sure to be alone for). My first night in Israel all i wanted to do was walk. I walked all night. I savored everything, I smelled everything, breathed the air, ran my hands along the stone walls taking it all in because I knew that I was literally living inside my own personal miracle. It took me a while and I did have some major ups and downs here like this was far from a smooth transition. I still had trouble with alcohol and hadnt kept a shabbos in years and it of course still had that stigma but I was here and I was ready and I knew that I was finally on my way and most importantly, I didnt feel my soul dying anymore. My first shabbos alone in israel was just me by myself in my sublet apartment with some cheap groceries, a glass of wine and two pitas which today would have sounded like the worlds most depressing night, but when I lit my candles and heard the shabbos bell go off and I had my little set up in the city I had always dreamed of living in, I felt so at peace and for the first time in a long time, I didnt feel alone in this planet and I knew that everything was going to be okay as long as I did my part. So thats it. Thats me. Theres way more obviously i had a lot of work to do but I never stopped moving forward and I dont plant to settle until Im "as frum as I can get I guess" which is always my answer when people ask me what I want to be. I found a group of friends. They dont know this whole story so theyll never really understand what they are to me which is literally, in every sense of the word, the answer to my prayers. every single one of them. Now when I light for shabbos, I picture my own shabbos table set and waiting, my husband coming home from shul, my kids sitting on the couch together reading books, and the spirit of shabbos shining through my home from the light of my candles and the comfort of knowing that its all real. Finally its no longer a painful wish, but its still a prayer and i feel it closer to reality every day.
