I graduated from community college with an Associate's in Art in 2020. I went back this semester for a practicum class. It's basically independent study and there's no real lab credits etc so you only pay like $150 compared to an actual credit course. I haven't made art in awhile and I wanted to get back into it, and work with my old professor. Here's the start of my first piece. I'm working in a... » Continue Reading

I haven't played a new mainline Pokemon game since X, which I abandoned halfway through because I got bored lol. My favorites are Black/White and their sequels. I think gen 5 is the peak of the series. I've heard some people say Scarlet/Violet were good despite their performance issues. I've also been told I would like them as a gen 5 fan. I played PLA and had fun with it. It's pretty shallow, a... » Continue Reading

Decided to make a blog post where I will compile random sketches as I make them. Digital art is all done through Krita. I'll make a post about my Krita set-up eventually. You can also view my art on my Mastodon account. Eventually, I want to make a dedicated blog to store my portfolio, as well as long form essays, et » Continue Reading

10/08/24 10:35 PM Went to the job fair tonight for my IT studies program. As soon as I saw how many people where there I wanted to turn around and go back home. I forced myself to head in though. There was a lot more people than I expected and lots of different companies showed up. I've only ever worked crappy menial jobs. I've never been in a semi-professional setting before. To say I felt intimi... » Continue Reading
Hey y'all. My name's Xavier. I'm 26 years old. Recent Fediverse migrant; found SpaceHey through there. I grew up out of the open web and into the advertising shitfest it is today. Super stoked to see indie web and open web social media take off. I'm currently developing a personal blog that is more professional and will also feature my art portfolio. I figured I could jump on here for more longfor... » Continue Reading
