the-chemistry-of-gazes asked: I actually have a tablet :) I don't like the feeling of drawing on it though, but if you're worried about not being able to draw all that good on it, it really isn't that different. You basically need a day or two of practice and from then on it's like you never made a transition from traditional to digital. I think you should definitely give it a go.
scarletfame asked: Have you considered digital painting? Tablets are cheaper than good painting supplies and come Wacom tablets bundled with starter software. Also, no drying time, no mess, and an undo button.

can't decide
if i should keep doing the 365 challenge thing. ugh its so stressful. days like today, where i have so many other things to do, and will probably have no time to draw anything decent, it just makes me more stressed so I end up posting the ugliest things. and i feel like i have to completely finish something, instead of doing what i can, taking my time, and finishing it completely another day. i...

Anonymous asked: GOodwill will sometimes have disposable cameras on sale. I love getting those for about a dollar, sometimes less, and developing the pictures of these random people's lives, and sometimes of people takingphotos of themself in goodwill while it was on the shelf. haha.
neonmoth asked: check it out, i thought of this its called a "disposable camera party" or "fun saver party" the idea is: everyone has to bring a disposable to the party then they take pictures throughout the night and then they trade cameras at the end of the night and the other person gets the photos they took and vise-versa! i thought it was a rad idea but haven't tried it yet..

MUSIC SUGGESTIONS?
i would love you forever, and ever, and everrrrr
my ipod is so boring lately.
amyystoberr asked: You should try referencing life. Having references isn't bad as long as it's not from a photograph or something. Look at life and train yourself to interpret it in your own way. Look in the mirror and practice some self portraits. You're your own best model ! :)
