Feeling art blocked due to stress from the upcoming Fanime Artist Alley, so I painted this scenery based on a photo I took in Japan. Nothing is more calming than the sound of water and leaves <3

“““You’re not a monster,” I said. But I lied. What I really wanted to say was that a monster is not such a terrible thing to be. From the Latin root monstrum, a divine messenger of catastrophe, then adapted by the Old French to mean an animal of myriad origins: centaur, griffin, satyr. To be a monster is to be a hybrid signal, a lighthouse: both shelter and warning at once.””—
— Ocean Vuong, from “On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous”
