Hi #PortfolioDay I’m Cha, a former tattooist trying to recover from deep depression and burnout When I draw its often #CriticalRole b/c it soothes, inspires & is a rare thing of joy but I’ve been revisiting comics too & its helping. Animation-greatly inspires my work too Thank u for looking 💜

Heya friends, was wondering if any of y’all have advice on managing migraines? I’ve realised mine might be a little worse than I’m giving them credit for but Ive never done anything about them

Tripped and fell at the cosplay finish line with the terrible face paint 😭 lesson learnt—don’t wing it last minute with slightly different materials

FUCK I thought I was having a weird-ass dream to explain why my mirror fell off my wall and smashed in the middle of the night. Turns out it was a fkn EARTHQUAKE

It's my birthdaaaaay!🎊 As an artist, it's often difficult to acknowledge how much I work and how much I improve, so today I want to be nicer to myself and share some of my favourite pieces I made since my last bday.💙 If you'd like to share, it would be a lovely gift!🙏✨

Ignore that some of the outfit doesn’t make sense, but finally calling this Julien painting done! (Special thanks to Sing the Sorrow-era AFI for this one 😂) #CriticalRoleFanArt

Im not kidding when I say I’ve tried to draw over a hundred drawings in the past month or two which I’ve just abandoned. It truly feels like I’ve forgotten how to do it.

Andddd we got another flare of the ‘but you’re perfectly healthy’ condition where I have to lay down for days at a time but can’t sleep nor eat. At this point I’m just assuming this is Long Covid and the doctors I’ve seen are hopelessly unaware.

Christ on a bike, one moment you’re drifting off to sleep and next you’re hit by such a deep loneliness you can’t breathe. What the absolute fuck was that brain? Fucking hell.

Actually sick that my hair is turning white at the temples. Now if it could blaze past the ‘salt and pepper’ and just hit that platinum asap it’d make bleaching my hair way easier thanks

Lately I’ve had a flare of embarrassment at my ADHD. I’m so aware of my inability to shut up, be quiet, be still and I just keep apologising before just…continuing to do it 😭

Should be sleeping but instead I’m thinking about how, despite my sister and I being in our 30s, she only learnt my star sign this week and her response was ‘wow, you really got the only objectively bad one huh?’

Rewatching The Twilight Zone and realising that every trope I love or interesting storytelling idea Ive ever had can be traced back to trying to fight the boredom at Dad’s with whatever TV show was around
