by the way, i started up a sticker club! im designing a monthly paper doll with fashionable, customizable sticker outfits you can dress it up with, plus other goodies.
all you gotta do is subscribe to the sticker club tier on patreon / kiwibyrd -- this will also get you discord server access and the ability to message me for 1 on 1 art advice :D

i used to watch your speedpaints all the time in 2017 as a 13 year old amazed by your art, u were literally my idol LOL and this came up in my recommended, i just got a wave of nostalgia seeing ur channel name. your art is still as amazing as i remember it and your art has grown so beautifully. i hope i didnt word this weird or anything but i still very much love your art and this was an awesome watch ur such an inspiration to me

[@oanshee2462]

Wow I was 13 in 2017 too and this artist was my idol 😮 (and still is)

After all this time, I remembered again what contribution you as an artist have made to my life. And now, as I write this letter of gratitude, I am overwhelmed with inspiration and a lot of memories. I used to study by watching your work, then (three years have passed from this situation)I have protected your copyrights on the territory of my country, because few people observe them on the territory of the CIS (unless it concerns people who have money to track these things). Now, I am still amazed by your stylization skills and I hope that I can also learn such a skill of expressiveness!(sorry if something is not quite clear. I wrote through a translator, because of my low language skills)

Hey! I saw you clicking the sidebar to move up and down a lot. This might speed you up:
Hold spacebar and drag your stylus across the screen in the direction you want, then release. (This temporarily switches to the hand tool)
For zooming in and out it's: Ctrl or Command then the + or -
You probably already know these, but I think you used to use a different program for a long time. These are what I use. I just program them to a key on my pen or wherever is comfortable. Pretty sure that's right anyway. I don't click the specific keys everytime since it's already programmed, so I might be a little off. Also that's just me. Sometimes it feels better to do it manually and that's okay too! You are one of my favorite artists love this btw! ❤

[@HalfBoyHalfGod]

I cannot believe the haunting beauty of this giraffe

[@GenreChowderStudios]

I was just listening to something about giraffes.
You really have become a master of shape and light. I’ve always loved the shadows cast by eyelashes. There’s something so sharp yet subtle about them.
This color palette was really well balanced. Cohesive and good value spread.
Also, I find it interesting how you painted in the background instead of doing a bucket fill. Is there a reason for that, like adding subtle texture, or is it just a workflow preference?

[@KiwiByrd]

thank you so much, great comment as always!!
i just like to do the actual coloring and think it's fun, which is why I prefer a big brush to the bucket tool :D

[@anniesamare]

This is incredible! I love how you applied every nuance within the palette
