    😂 I had an idea of creating a short video where it looks like I spilled water on my drawing, only to reveal it was part of the actual drawing. Completely forget until your comment 🙌🏾

    My teacher used to use a powder. Amazing. Just like this. I couldn't stand using that, so I stayed with pencil. needed a filter, she died of lung problems.

    I sparingly use powder to get the base shaded, but this is done entirely with charcoal pencils. Definitely need a mask if you’re using the powder like that

    That is an absolutely extraordinary level of detail. Every time I look at it I find something I missed. It’s like a story you gotta read a hundred times to really understand.

    Love this comment, and glad you’re seeing it that way. That’s always my goal. I want you to find something new everything you look at it.

    wish I had money so I could commission a piece; this is outstanding.

    hell, wish I had money so I could have an estate and have the artist move into a guest house and produce stuff like this all day long; I'd support TrisTheArtist as long as he/she was happy there.

    I appreciate that! 🙏🏾 I’m still working a full-time job and doing this as a hobby. So I wish I had the money to take the chance and make this a career. One day 🤞🏾

    No, they don't; you ,and the person who upvoted you, are wrong. 'Blond(e)' is one of the few words in English which is gendered, because it's a loanword from French.

    The spellings blonde and blond correspond to the feminine and masculine forms in French, but in English the distinction is not always made, as English does not have such distinctions of grammatical gender. The word is more commonly used of women, though, and the more usual spelling is blonde. Use of the noun (which is typically spelled blonde) can cause offence on account of old stereotypes about ‘dumb blondes’ and ‘blonde moments’, and because it is seen as reducing a woman to the colour of her hair. In American usage the usual spelling is blond for both adjective and noun.

    But, as you think otherwise, you're obviously American.

    Despite having listened to this album probably 100x or more, this is the first time I’ve realized that despite the album cover saying “blond”, it’s called Blonde on everything- Spotify, wiki, etc

    The name of the album is officially Blonde, the artwork just includes the title spelled Blond
