*introduce yourself here* 😌

Basic Pillowfort guidelines of course apply, but please:

• Keep posting etiquette in mind (keep wordy posts under read-mores, mark your NSFW stuff, etc.)
• Stay friendly and open—we all have different artistic backgrounds! :3
• No spamming! As in, don't post/rb three of your own posts within a short period of time. Over the course of a day is fine—in an hour is not.
  
• Reblog your art posts here so long as your art is 50% or more done in gel pen! So mixed media is allowed, but gel pen must be the prevalent medium.
• Coloring book posts are allowed; you still need to tag them the way you would any self-drawn art post, but make sure to tag with "coloring book," please!
• TAG YOUR POSTS, PLEASE! Not just your NSFW. You must tag your triggers (like body horror, gore, food, bugs, animals, etc.) AND fandom, if applicable. Some others tags to use include:
  • brands (optional, but useful if you know and ppl would like to find similar colors/types!):
    • Dong-a
    • Muji
    • Paper Mate
    • Pentel
    • Pilot
    • Sakura
    • Sharpie
    • Uni/Uniball

    • unknown brand (use only when you don’t know, pls&ty!)
  • aaaand a few more good tags:
    • gel pen art
    • gel pen photos
