This awaited me in the kitchen after I woke up today. A crafty teen who loves #spiders might have a funeral planned. 🕷️🕷️🕷️🪦🪦🪦

Hi, I’m Arp! I got diagnosed with ADHD at 49, and now I'm trying to figure out what's me, what's masking, and just about everything else. I make comics (when imposter syndrome isn't striking) and write about life as a creative Indian-American. I’m self-taught, self-employed, and self-flagellating.

More Notes & Asides

I could have finished my adhd blog last night (I just had to finish optimizing performance) but … I wasn’t totally thrilled with the colors and their use. Which led to a #rabbithole on UX (user experience), colors in websites & apps, and messing around with a plethora of color palette generators & tools (many of which were new to me and super cool). This prolly led to today’s insomnia as I hyperfocused & missed my melatonin window (at least that’s one theory I have for my shitty sleep).

I can’t count the number of times someone asked me to stop pacing because ‘it made them nervous.’ Has that happened to you?

Hey – it’s #lettering I don’t hate! I’ve been messing with #blockletters and finally made something that didn’t suck. But for the life of me I cannot remember what brush I used and I just realized I need to throw in a couple of skulls 🤦🏽‍♂️ This is a line that’s been stuck in my head since Green Day released #Saviors. I feel less dead inside after I stopped taking #adderall. #HandLettering #GreenDay #frankentoon #truegrittexturesupply #greenroommedia #letteringart #digitalart #affinitydesigner #textures #digitalillustrator #ADHD

Sooooooo I haven’t watched any of the vids I took when we saw #GreenDay because I’m afraid to hear myself singing 🫣🫣🫣 #music #punk #rocknroll #anxiety #adhd

Sunday morning coffee reading: this caught my eye at the #library yesterday and the description sealed the deal. It’s weird, and funny, and interesting – and again makes me wonder why I can’t draw with imperfections like it. I wish I’d been exposed to a wider world of #comics when I was younger, outside of #Tintin. Superheroes overshadowed everything in the US by the 80s, despite the popularity of Archie and all the Gold Key comics that I enjoyed reading. #Vampires #BD #BandeDessinee #JoannSfar
