i used this one baking tray for ... mice purposes .... and now that the holes are sealed i'm like wah i'm sort of afraid to use this for food now lol
i did wash it w soap today though and i'm thinking of heating it up in the oven for germ killing and maybe it'll be safe to use after that?

idk i was like is it silly to throw this perfectly good baking tray away ... but i was using it to poke at some very dusty under-the-radiator areas and trying to block potential mouse holes :-s

yeah, i feel like now we're back to "not supposed to go outside" too so i try to be a little more judicious about it >_0 still i think living alone cuts down a lot of the risk (i say to myself to justify anything i do lol ...) >_>

ohh the burner or the oven??
for burner i think if it's low heat it's not too bad! just maybe wasting gas but i don't think it'll burn anything ... leaving high heat on though would probably stress me out but i probably wouldn't leave it unattended for high heat
for oven i'm just like oh i guess it's.... an extra space heater .... lol

ahh i see ^^ i usually go whenever the weather is kind of ok out lol ... if i have to be outside i'd rather pick days when it's sunny!

and oh no qq
i've accidentally left the burner on low heat before... i think i uuuuusually remember the oven but i don't think it's tooo too bad if i forget, and i usually use the oven clock to check the time so i would notice if it's on (it'll show the temperature instead of the time)

@moodyb: ohh yeah sometimes if u hit the right rabbit hole u get can get lots of good suggestions
music videos are a really good idea! they can have really fun shots i'm sure could be good inspo

that's great to hear ^0^ i'm so glad you're feeling that way lately abt the art you're working on
yeah there probably is a "trick" to clouds but i'm not sure i've figured it out yet lol
have u ever seen those youtube videos of ppl painting cloud/moon pieces?? they make it look so easy it probably wouldn't be too hard to follow along too :0 they always look so good at the end!

@moodyb: oh nice! i wish i had one put together ... i guess it's never too late to start though!
where do u usually get ur references from?

i usually just look stuff up as i need them, or i'll take screenshots from movies and tv shows when i'm watching them ^^ i think film stills are helpful to do studies of particularly for composition + color!

nature can be p relaxing to paint :-) i agree on clouds, they can be tricky sometimes!

@moodyb: you seem so determined!!! v admirable
that's great u have refs at the ready too!! that way if you're in the mood to draw there's always something you can just pick up at the ready!
sometimes i'll be kind of in the mood to draw but i can't think of anything to do so i end up not doing it .... i've been trying to keep refs on hand lately though so i always have something i can do if i feel like it!
