Happy feast of St. John of the Cross, one of the doctors of the church. Well known for his work on the "Dark night of the Soul" which is different than "Spiritual Desolation" that St. Ignatius talks about. We all have our crosses to bear but we don't always see the fruit. It's a fitting day for me as I got a big cross today but with God's grace I can support it. Please pray for my healing of headaches and depression, they are really getting in the way. St. John of the Cross, pray for us.

I don't like sharing my art on platforms usually, so I'm using this space to kind of dip my toes in. I'm a digital artist, and I mostly draw feeling sketches when I'm in a dark headspace. This particular one is from a late night depressive episode.
A drawing that took me forever XD I knew how I wanted the lighting, it just took me a long time to figure out how to make it a certain way. Mainly the yellow gradient+glow around the character, not the lighting actually on her. This request was asked by the lovely nabi_nalgae on Instagram and she wanted me to draw this pretty lady, her character Nabi!
This is for BJW [initials] one of my writers and irl friend. Yes, I have drawn her before, but this was again as a gift! [If you read this far thanks for checking out my art! I'll let you in on a secret: BJW might just be the voice actor for Mel....] ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) She helped with Mels character, because she's amazing at improv and surprised me by auditioning for Mels voice... It's a big responsibility- so I wanted to thank her
