All three of these went to the same client. The portrait with the grandparents and their grand baby is my favorite of the group. I was worried since I centered the grandparents and not the grandson but I like how it turned out

Finished this portrait 🖌🎨 for a client a few weeks ago. This one was so much fun to work on.

I tested some new watercolor paper tonight. Final verdict? Smash.

I did a bit of character art for an author. I think it turned out ok but I learned I need to work on lighting and anatomy.

I wish people actually visited websites.
I'm being so genuine when I say this. This is not a dunk.
I wish people actually considered *visiting* personal websites like they used to.
I feel like people just want their platforms, platforms, platforms.

The hit-counter on my site is kinda discouraging.
I cannot stress this enough pleASE create your own blogs or websites, artists. You can link them to your socials so people will still be able to find you!
Welp, looks like Tumblr is going to quickly become a non-viable place to post any art going forward (there are talks of them apparently partnering with midjourney :/ ).

Honestly I'm tired ya'll ~_~....

Well I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner this year but it happened like clock work. The weather couldn't decide if it wanted to be hot or cold so now I have a sinus infection. Fuuuun. Gotta love having overly sensitive sinuses 🙄

I'm working on drawing men/male presenting characters. I have never been good at drawing masculine faces, so here's a first attempt at drawing from imagination. Not bad, but definitely needs work.

I was walking in my backyard and saw a dead mouse surrounded by white moths. It was so beautiful I needed to draw it.

So here we are. Even death can be beautiful.

Many years ago, I was commissioned to draw a Plesiosaur for a documentary about American cryptids. I was so proud of this #illustration. I want to revisit it and rework it now that I've grown as an #artist

This was an old #illustration I plan on revisiting one day. This is Dani and her automaton Bolton. Dani is a young inventor who still has a way to go before she stops blowing stuff up in her father's shop.

Ok so this is a trend on tiktok. There was a filter that told you what your "fursona" or animal persona would be. It just randomly chooses an animal in its dataset, nothing more intense than that. It landed on Rabbit for me, so I drew my fursona. Extra points if you know who Bloodywood are

I'm a huge fan of romance novels and one of the things I love to do is make fan art of the characters I've fallen in love with over the book. This one is from "Enthralling the Orc" by Tracy Lauren. I adored these characters so I had to draw them as soon as I put the book down.
