︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶ Dance for me, Dance for me, Dance for me ohh-oh ︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶
✨Come one, come all. Ladies and gentlemen, non-binary and amazing beans! May I introduce Moth, the sweet dancer. He dances and dances and dances. There’s nothing else in the world he loves to do other than just that. Come watch Moth as he takes you on a journey.✨
︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶Time and App ︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶
I want to say all 3 pieces took me 5-7 hours in total to draw. I’m not sure how long I spent on each one I didn’t keep track- oops
As usual I’m using procreate app!
Please remember, you don’t need fancy things or fancy apps to make art, there’s lots of free apps if you want to go into digital, I suggest ibis, I started out with that app before moving to Paint sai, which is also very good if you like computers or have a set up for a pc. I personally use my iPad, Apple Pencil and procreate app. Remember though, traditional is just as amazing!

Character art is by me, backgrounds are just blurred f2u photos I had found as I wanted to focus on the character more.
︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶The Story Behind The Art ︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶
When I was growing up, I was homeschooled. Since I was homeschooled and in top grades, I had free time. LOTS of free time, so I spent those free days dancing at a studio called House of Dance. This studio was nothing big as it was in a small town, but we made our name known. We all worked hard and performed for holidays and even had some competitions. Though we would never win first place due to our competitor J&J and even though we never would, we took the small wins and we were still happy. Mad that such a studio beat us in competitions but we didn’t let that take out our flame. At one point I was even a mentor for a younger age group, but that was many years ago.
After we moved before highschool I was sad I had to leave that life behind, and even devastated when I came back and couldn’t dance again because of how bad my anxiety was. I felt judged and watched, I felt insecure about my moves and the way I had to do things now due to an injury years ago.
When I got Moth I already knew what I wanted him to be a dancer. Drawing him dancing like this has started to heal that part of me, people say art isn’t that powerful but it’s extremely powerful once the story behind it is revealed. I thank my best friend for giving me Moth and I love him so much and he has already done many wonders to my mind.
