Hey! So is this portal/submission form always open? Or temporarily? I’d love to apply, but a bit later as I feel like I haven’t had the time to create those ultimate portfolio pieces yet to make sure it’s 100% presentable 🙈

I was going through some old folders the other day and found one of my fave concepts done for my comic. I need to make sure Bob gets enough screentime 🥗💣

Carbon Ground first book (which will be massive) is finally 100% scripted 🥹 It’s a rather messy ”for my eyes only” version but at least it exists. Now all I need is a huge grant to be able to actually draw this before I die 😂

Felt a sudden urge to start preparing all the newer artwork for prints 👀 I’ll try to attend one local con this spring, and this time it’s a whole new selection with only a couple of old favourites! ✨
Might update my shop too sometime after but that’s a future me problem 😅

After a year of 0 time for personal art this shippy minicomic was done purely for dopamine. CG has been in a bit of a limbo lately but the first book is half way drafted at least so we’re making progress. Meanwhile it’s more dopamine rush doodles and client work I soon get to post ✨ #OCart #webcomic

Time to showcase my graphic novel here too! (Expect news about publishing soon) ”Säde” is a story about a neurodivergent girl who finds her way through trauma with the help of an unexpected friend; a lost seagull also struggling in a dystopian world.

Suffering shouldn't be how artists create by default. That is an inhumane notion that should've been left behind in pre 20th century Civilization
"Things might be tough but it's great for artists! They'll create more!" You might not believe me but going through a lifetime's worth of stress Every Single Week for years and years- is actually not the optimal set of circumstances that inspires artists to create

It's time to exist here too. Hi everyone, prepare yourself for all my OCs and stories. I'm a 2D animator that works on her comic in free time, inspired by Slavic and Croatian folklore and mythology.

Yup I’m absolutely fed up with new social media channels but I guess we don’t have much of a choice 🫠 Seems nice in here though

Liam sketches. I have finally fully scripted the first part of book one of Carbon Ground (so approx 150 pages worth of plot), and sketched a good part of that. Hence, the neverending inking phase looms close. I’m terrified. 👀
