While known for her singing, Eilish also flexes impressive skills as a visual artist. She has a long-held passion for drawing and painting across different mediums. This hobby provides a relaxing creative outlet completely separate from her music.

On her Instagram page, Eilish often shares candid clips showing works in progress. Intricate anime sketches, moody abstract paintings, and colorful graffiti-style pieces reveal her versatile talent. She has also decorated merch items and music videos with her original illustrations.

In a 2021 interview for Vanity Fair, Eilish explained how vital visual art is, even with her packed career:

“I have to draw and paint on my downtime. It balances me out and opens up a different headspace. The visuals are satisfying in a whole different way than music.”

Eilish seems to enjoy painting privately just for herself as much as making fan art. Letting her inner graphic artist run free recharges her.

Binge-Watching Horror Films Gets Her Blood Pumping

While Eilish oozes brooding gothic attitude in her work, fans may still be surprised to learn she absolutely adores the horror genre. For both mood inspiration and pure adrenaline, Eilish can’t get enough creepy, bloody, psychological thrillers.

She created a whole themed Instagram Highlight reel devoted to “Billie’s Horror Corner,” reviewing cult classics like The Babadook alongside new favorites like Hereditary. In interviews, she’s named The Shining, Saw, and Midsommar as go-tos.

Eilish told Entertainment Weekly in 2019 that she loves the feeling of being scared:

“Horror movies give you this insane adrenaline rush. My heart is racing just thinking about the super tense scenes in Hereditary!”

When not busy, she eagerly binge-watches terrifying flicks, getting inspiration for her own horror-inflected videos and songs.

Gaming Skills Showcased on Twitch Livestreams

Eilish is also a major gamer at heart. She has streamed herself on Twitch playing various games for charity and fan enjoyment. Casual simulation games like Animal Crossing and The Sims are favorites. But she also flexes skills at Fortnite and oozes cool joining fan games.

During downtime on tour, Eilish squeezes in time for gaming. She created an entire Instagram Highlight reel “Billie Plays Games” showing off her play. In 2020, she told NME:

“I’m really into gaming right now. It’s such a nice escape, and I can connect with fans in a different way, which is awesome.”

Seeing Eilish conquering video games so adeptly makes her seem more down-to-earth. Her carefree laughter while gaming contrasts the intense brooding of her professional persona.

Goofing Off with Friends Adds Lightness

Despite her anti-pop star vibes, Eilish seems to love hanging with friends and goofing off like a typical Gen Z teen. Lots of laughter, inside jokes, and messing around get documented on her Instagram.

Eilish has maintained a loyal friend group since childhood who keep her grounded. She celebrates their birthdays, posts nostalgic throwbacks, and jets off on vacation with them any chance she gets. Keeping these real-life buddies close is a priority.
