the first death

♥(bg painting practice 1/250)♥! i feel like i know nothing about colors and backgrounds, so i'm making the commitment now to do 250 of them starting now. gotta get the bad paintings out of the way. here's to improvement in 2021!!

“Hey there, Shortcake.” ❤️🍰 ——————————————— One of my favorite summer reads (and now favorite romance books of all time!) is The Hating Game by Sally Thorne ! I’ve read it twice in the last month (and my favorite parts more than that)—if you love enemies to lovers, this is like THE book to read. I was so excited when ACOBAF said this was going to be the art for the month of August 😆❤️! It’ll be available in their shop as a booksleeve & print in September, so go follow them 💕.

I don’t think I’ve ever shared this, but here was the piece Fairyloot commissioned me to do for their Finale Collector’s Edition Box.

It was so much fun to do! Love them.

if you’ve been following me for awhile...you’ll know that i have some oc’s! i love them very much, so here’s a sketch dump <3 i’m writing their stories right now!

It’s been awhile since I’ve drawn any ACOTAR art! I recently brought myself to finish ACOWAR (I was putting it off because I didn’t want to their tale to end...) and I’m experiencing serious book hangover. To cope with such, I decided to draw one of my favorite scenes throughout the series--Starfall.

Happy New Year everyone! Here’s a drawing from last year I never posted. I drew it while I was rewatching FMAB (one of my fave animes of all time). I have a feeling I’ll never get around to finishing it, due to the fact that there’s so much I’d change about it 2 months later. Thanks for all your continued support! May 2019 be a year of growth for all of us.

I just rewatched FMAB and I feel everything.

You are loved!

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you’re having a great time with your loved ones. I just wanted to pop in and say that if for some reason you’re alone this holiday season because you can’t see your family or because you don’t have family, you are not alone. I know what it’s like to be lonely during the holiday season, and if someone hasn’t said it to you already, here it is: You are loved. You matter. Things will get better. Keep praying and keep your head up high. Jesus loves you! ♥

"conflict" (030617, 1.5hr) -- i've been struggling with my art recently; structure and the pressure of always "making it look good" gets to my head and puts restrains on my creativity. so last night i decided to just put on an instrumental soundtrack and decided to let my arm just flow and this came out. sometimes you just gotta let yourself be creative. :') -- follow me on instagram (@sallteas) for process pics and personal artwork! i upload (nearly) everyday. thanks so much for your support, guys!
