hello, call me Jast
greetings, strange traveler from the Wide World Web! this humble digitalscape will serve as a form of personal hub:
here, you can find my wacky artwork specimens, useless knowledge about me, almost nonsensical rambles and much more! :o)i hope you enjoy your stay over here. and yeah, i dunno what i can add more... but check out this wonderful vintage duck that i found on the internet! cortesy by furby_y2k on poshmark.
but also shotouts to
- carrd, for making this site a reality
- porkbun, for letting me have a cool dot com domain for me
- my friends, online and offline
- my family
- and you!
maybe the owner of this site idk
who is jast?
i am a mainly digital artist from brazil, but sometimes i do mixed media. (collage, photographs, playdough...)
this day and age we have so many tools to make art, it's fascinating! just a hobby though, i do not intend to take this professionally, although sometimes i take illustration commissions or requests in my teeny beety meety time; i like to translate what the person requested in my own artistic language.you can consider me quite the quaint fellow! my manners and my own artistic language might prove this statement, i think
i am also part of the queer and autistic community, diagnosted β.
what jast is up to now?
right now, i am graduating graphic design school and working as a "marketing assistant" (i am in charge of visual communication) in an educational institution, it's been fun!
but enough of this useless information... how about reading MORE useless information about my interests and overall tastes?
usually, stuff that i enjoy is very weird for the most part, tacky but charming and of course, silly! which reflects my artistic choices a ton. but if i could be more specific, maybe, hm... oh well there these lists below.
π π π π π
general interests
animation! my main source of knowledge is animation obssesive, a goldmine if you want to know many things about it.
as i said before, anything that can be considered tacky, amateur and kitsch. for example, i'm very fond of those antique plushies, toys and puppets! i also love those specific clearly vector-based retro cliparts from microsoft.
CLOWNS AND JESTERS AND MIMES I LOVE THESE HUMOROUS SPECIES! must entertain the masses.
textures..TEXTURES hmmhm drooling emoji.. like adding a fake crumpled paper texture in hopes of making it more real and somehow tactile... and OHHH dithering process too, hmhmh delicious bits!
birds, arthropods and marine life. animals rules!
music!! another thing i CANNOT simply ignore! #MUSIC4LIFE and of course. experimental art gives me that musique concrète
i love hearing "useless yap", yes please tell me about your niche obscure shovelware game that the entire planet forgot about!
picture fo today: #selfietime
mooh-sic!
i lean towards more instrumental music, not really into vocals all that much. there is some exceptions though, ahah!! but i guess that is the reason why i am not too fond of musicals unfortunately.
