First Performance Video Ever - Forgetful

Image
Yup, the title says it all. I made my first performance video recording myself re-creating one of the songs off of my demo tape . I had a lot of fun setting up my little area: View this post on Instagram This is my recording area for a video I'll be making for a song off of my demo tape 🌹💀 #makingof #behindthescenes #music #musician #recordingarea #recording #peacefulspace #witchyvibes A post shared by Terra-Essence Art (@terra.essence.art) on Dec 24, 2019 at 1:03am PST I went all out and dressed up too because it's fun and I can: View this post on Instagram Pre-video photoshoot 🖤 I hyped myself up and was feeling sexeh even though the song I was working on was quite melancholic 💀🥀 Video will be out soon~ #photoshoot #darkaesthetic #musician #behindthescenes #makingof #witchyvibes #witchy A post shared by Terra-Essence Art (@terr

Made my own intro video

Image
So recently I've been using After Effects more. Anyways, I made some music in FL studio and added it to an old video I had made a while back. I used some commercial free stock footage of a glowing, magickal-looking sprite thingy and boom - intro video :)

Recent Activities

Image
So recently I released a new album that's kinda shitty but whatever - I think the art's cool. I made the artwork, album art, and animation myself. I made a visualizer in After Effects. I've made a couple of other digital paintings recently. They can all be found on my ArtStation. I actually started a new merch shop on Teespring too. I'm still posting up different designs. For now I'm going to be experimenting with new sounds and creating new T-shirt designs. I really want to make more time for writing though! I want to complete more of my own original stuff X)

Random Quotes

"They who dance are thought mad by those who hear not the music." - Unknown "The higher we soar the smaller we appear to those who cannot fly" - Friedrich Nietzsche  "If we never experience the chill of a dark winter, it is very unlikely that we will ever cherish the warmth of a bright summer’s day. Nothing stimulates our appetite for the simple joys of life more than the starvation caused by sadness or desperation. ...it is vital that we turn each and every dark tear into a pearl of wisdom..." - Anthon St. Maarten For some reason, I felt like posting these. They're meaningful to me in different ways.  It was limiting to have grown up with social anxiety or really just anxiety in general. Luckily, I'm not plagued or held back by what I think people are thinking of me anymore. It's hard to convince myself that anything I do is worthwhile, so it's nice to remember to not give a fuck. That nothing matters in the best, most beautifu

Blindfolded

Image
I recently created this piece. It's album art~  Mt_Majora gave me the imagery. I was instructed to create a picture with a man and a woman. The man is covering the woman's eyes and is wearing a blindfold that's torn over one eye. Originally, the man was supposed to look like he was protecting the woman - shielding her eyes from the horrors of the world and whatnot - but as I drew, it just kind of morphed into him looking like he's dominating her or something (haha XD) Plus wtf is with the resemblance to Peter Steele (whom I'd forgotten even existed at the time)? Here's a gif of the process: Aaaaand a video of me speed-painting:

FNGI MAGI Banner

This is a banner I made for a band called FNGI MAGI . This is a random scene from a visualizer I made for another band called Behind the Machine .

I'm still around!

Image
I took a break from writing and Twitching to work on some music stuff. Anyways, I recently finished a painting~ I'm going to be working on finishing my fanfic again once and for all. It's a slow process, but I'm a perfectionist and like to finish projects.

Official Twitch Schedule Posted and Feeling Productive~

Image
Man, I'm feeling productive. I finished another chapter for my fanfic (which I'll be posting soon), I got some work done on a new painting (which I'll also be posting soon when I'm done), and I figured out my new Twitch schedule~ This next Saturday I'll be streaming Anniversary no Kuni no Alice. I'm on Blood Dupre's route trying to get his rose garden ending. Don't know if I'm going to stick to streaming, but in the future I'd like to stream my digital art process.

I haven't posted in a while, so I thought I would just randomly talk about what I'm up to~ At the moment, I've been addicted to this dressing game. It's a cute app with lots of outfits <3 It's a nice time waster. I've been so busy that I haven't been able to watch any anime or really anything at all. I've been wanting to catch up on Tokyo Ghoul. I watched the first season and then before knew it four seasons were already out (>.<)! I've also really been wanting to watch the second season of Psycho-Pass. I'm a total Ginoza fangirl haha~ I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Psycho-Pass has a VN and now I gotta check that out too. Not to mention that I want to play Sweet Pool, a VN by Nitro+Chiral (I'm not super into BL, but Nitro consistently has great writing and characters). I'm swamped with stuff to play and that I want to see 😂 I feel like I'm never going to catch up! Anyways, I've been slowly but surely w

Random Naruto Fanart!

Hi random people reading this :) I haven't posted for a while, but that doesn't mean I haven't been busy. I've been posting up a Fanfic called Mist's Legacy on Fanfiction.net and DeviantArt . It's based on the anime Naruto/Naruto Shippuden. It's a romance fanfic with the main couple being my OC, Mizushima Aiko, and Uchiha Sasuke. I decided to draw the couple mid conversation in one of Orochimaru's bases. I imagine what they’re saying would go something like this: ~~~~~~ Sasuke: I’ve noticed this for a long time now. Why does Kabuto glare at your sash? Aiko: *laughs* Because I shot him down when he insisted I wear that tacky purple belt. Sasuke: *raises an eyebrow* Is that all you did? If so, Kabuto is more sensitive than I initially thought. Aiko: He is sensitive if he’s still holding a grudge after a few years. When I first came under Orochimaru’s caring tutelage, my old clothes were worn out so Kabuto brought me a new se
