I love how you talk about what you’re drawing rather than doing a speed paint- first of all, it lets us know why she made her design choices. Second of all, it’s not as boring. Lavendertowne, you are honestly my favorite artist- no, KZbinr. Actually, scratch that. My favorite influencer EVER. Better than the biggest celebrities. You’ve helped me through an unbelievable amount, you’ve made me smile when I’ve wanted to legitimately DIE. You’re so adorable and quirky, and an amazing artist and character designer, I really wish I was as skilled at her with my own art. I have to look up tutorials for everything and it’s still terrible, but you have BEAUTIFUL, AWE-STRIKING, LOVELY art that makes my day. Plus, your shading is AMAZINGGGG. Speaking of, can you make a video on your process? I’d love to see what goes on in your mind while you’re drawing, maybe get a good insight and some tips- I look up to you so so much and you’re amazing and I hope your life is full of wonderful days
