"Let us discuss the matter like civilized humans beings. And by 'discuss' I mean, of course, I talk and you listen."
- Samuel Sterns
"We approach life not just to be able to think about it and talk about it and discover its truths, but also to enjoy it. And so a healthy life really isn't about abstinence or asceticism, it's about enjoying your time on this earth."

November and December Art Summary 2025
I didn't draw much in December and November 'cause I've been extra busy with opening my business and administrative shit so I decided to wait to post the November art summary to fuse them. Bruce Banner / The Hulk & Samuel Sterns / The Leader (Marvel) Believe it or not but this one is a COMMISSION (and I'm very grateful for it). I don't draw much comics Sam lately, MCU Sam took over my one braincell (I think I did say that already) and even less comics Samuce. This commission

How to start drawing
How to start drawing. The easy answer would be "just draw" and it's true. But when we enjoy a hobby, it's only natural to want to get better and to look for tips and advices. The thing with Art and the reason it's so hard to learn is because it takes A LOT of time. No matter how much you practice, it will take you YEARS to properly improve. There's no such things as gifted or shortcuts. The other reason is because Art is a very personal thing, intimate, so we all have our ve

October Art Summary 2025
Sometimes I have a lot to say about something I drew. Sometimes I don't. It's hard to explain my art process because like I often say, it's reflex. You draw this like that because it reinforce this and you pick this color because it has this meaning and you take this compo because it means that etc... It's common sense to you so it feels irrelevant to talk about it and sometimes you don't even think about it at all. It's like explaining why you crossed the road to go to the g

Art Post - The beauty of violence and the violent normality
Whore - In This Moment Samuel Sterns / The Leader - Marvel Studio If you're a minor I'll ask you to leave. Hop hop, leave, go play Fortnite, do your homework, whatever, just leave. Very strong CW for abuses (sexual, psychological, physical). Alright, today I wanna use this art as an excuse to talk about two matters, abuses and dark erotism. I completly rewrote this post because it was too clumsy and not focusing on the initial matter enough to me so feel free to read again

Art Post - Beauty in Imperfections
Phantom Manor Graveyard Jazz - Disneyland Paris MCU Samuel Sterns / The Leader It's Spooky Month, so have a ghoul-ish vampire! This art didn't necessarly desserved a whole post and it will be very short, but I loved it so much I wanted to talk about it. I can already tell it's gonna be one of my fav art of the year (and one of my fav overall). I really like the vibe I gave him. At first I corrected all the mistakes. The too long feet, the too bended thigh, the broken left w

Let's talk genders
Felix Hardy - Fiti I will use this fanart of Fiti 's male Black Cat design Felix to talk about that. I like his haircut and it was enough of a reason to draw him lol, I really wasn't expecting him to become one of my most popular art ever. I made this fanart over a year ago, but I felt like talking about it here. I've been reading every comments on every plateform people shared him and I saw a lot of folks praising the chest surgery scars, being genuinely happy about it. To

Art Post : A bit of Angst
Forsaken (live) - Skillet MCU Samuel Sterns / The Leader (Captain America Brave New World) New art post, a lil' bit of angst with this one haha. Honestly the main reason I drew this was because I wanted to draw his morphology and his arm (in my imagination his right arm is burnt by gamma injections). So let's dive in and talk about it a lil bit! I tried to be kind of respectful to Tim's body but it's complicated 'cause unlike Mark Ruffalo there's barely any pic of him shirtle

Art Post - To shed those tears
Broken Crown - Mumford and Sons Samuel Sterns / The Leader (Marvel Cinematic Universe) He got carried away by the song he was playing, don't judge him. I am OBSESS with that picture of Tim Blake Nelson playing guitar on the set of Captain America Brave New World. I was obsessed with it before it even comes out in fact. In comics (in the 90s during Peter David's run), Sam throw very casually that thanks to the connexion he accidentally created with Rick Jones he can play gui

Let's Talk : Art, Supremacism and Social Media
It should have been the very first post here given how my whole life is driven by Art, but it's a way too complex thing for a simple blog post. Still, let's try to talk about it, to vulgarise it. To give you keys to start your own reflexion. What is Art? This question might bring back terrible flashback from your philosophical classes. I'm not gonna give a definition of Art 'cause there's as many vision of Arts as there's people, Art is an intimate and personal thing, you can
