Anonymous asked: what do u use as a medium for acrylic paintings? Do u just use water?

If you are asking what I mix with the acrylics to put them on canvas, I use water. At least for the ones on my tumblr. I have also tried mixing in varnish, modeling paste, etc.

tribulate asked: Sorry, I meant to ask this in my last message but just realized I forgot.. do you use photo references or do you mostly paint from life? I always choose to draw/paint people, and that makes it much harder to find someone to pose, but I heard it's much better to draw from life than photographs, soo.. just curious..

I do mostly use photo references, but I always use my own photos. It’s basically plagiarism if you don’t! I’m taking life drawing classes currently because I’m trying to get off using them.

tribulate asked: YOUR ART IS INCREDIBLE!!! so insanely inspiring. I'm trying to do more with color and paint, so I have sooo much respect for everything you've posted on hereee!! Also, you're so lucky to be going to an art high school!!

Thank you so much, that’s exactly how I want my art to be portrayed by others. I love the style and mark in your art. Good luck experimenting with color, it’s limitless!

wearedirt asked: You're an incredible artist. What was your concentration for AP? Mine was cats haha c:

Cats was my friends concentration too! My concentration was internal conflict and how it is portrayed physically. It included themes such as depression, anxiety, hope, and isolation.
