longboarding

now don't get me wrong, i love my parkstars and spent absolutely too much time this summer on them, but i immediately got really invested in sunset and dusk times so that i could be on my board as long as possible. i dont wanna say i got "good" quick but i tryharded my whole ass off for, like, most of summer 26 and got really into the new vince staples album in the process.

lately ive been boarding out to rich people neighbourhoods and taking pics of all their flowers. im using them as my own reference photos for the flower study series of drawings im working on. sometimes its hard to find pictures of the specific part of the flower that i need to see, like the back of the stem near the ovary.

i try to get maisy in a lot of pics too, so that i have on hand that those pics are mine and not ai. as silly as that seems to even have to do. plus they make good instagram stories.

here's a wip of the current flower illustration.
