If you add a few drops of lavender, peppermint, or tea tree oil in a spray bottle with water and spray that around the house it’ll help with the spiders! I did it when I lived in a house with lots of black widows around. You can also try lemon or eucalyptus. Insects like spiders don’t like intense smells.
I definitely agree that drawing is for survival! I'm working on my art around my day job.. it's hard but if I don't make time for it I'm miserable! haha
Maybe try coming up with your own pokemon, that way you can start it off in your style, rather than making an already existing Pokemon fit your style. That second version definitely fits with your drawing style more though. Back pain is the worst.
It so hard finding the balance between copying it for practice and study, and then doing it in your own style - which more do you learn from? Do you do a bit of both? So many questions and so much practice - haha! 🤔
@MelaniePromise definitely a fine balance, I always say go with your gut. If you feel like copying, copy. If the creative juices are flowing, go crazy 💚
