This is what happens when you start encouraging people to have Pokémon battles on the rooftops.
This could have been prevented. A dark day for Lumiose City.

Last but not least, the big hit of the pack, Zygarde EX!
I wanted to capture a kind of Princess Mononoke vibe here, like catching a glimpse of the Spirit of the Forest. If you look carefully, the silhouette of the light and reflection make a big ‘Z’!

I wanted to try creating art for an illustration rare, so I picked a basic Pokémon, Sandshrew, and depicted a scene described in one of its Pokédex entries.
It seems that as the set rarity of a Pokémon card increases, the detail of the illustration does too!

For this illustration I wanted to depict Feraligatr swimming gracefully through a marsh to challenge its ferocious reputation.
Actually, this was my submission for the Official Pokémon Illustration Contest 2024! I didn’t get through, but one of the final winners was similar!

Next up, Dottler!
Dottler is a classic mid-stage Bug Pokemon with a psychic twist. It’s shell reminds me of the big jungle gym cages that kids would climb on in play parks.
I wanted to show it perched within the neon lights of a cityscape.

One day I hope I'll be able to contribute art for the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
So, for a bit of fund I decided to illustrate my very own pack of cards!
For this uncommon-rarity card, I wanted to illustrate Sudowoodo in the cool breeze of a summer day.

"BUG+" was my experimental first foray into comic book making! It's an expansion of an short comic I created during a drawing challenge back in 2020.
Follow two resilient bug robots as they navigate the gargantuan dangers of an apocalyptic world. Will they find home?

Excited to be in Japan again so soon after last summer - and for the first time in Spring! The temperature is so pleasant.
Every time I come back I notice new things - like this giant lad!

@modestmonster.bsky.social absolutely went above and beyond with this project. They even included a swappable eye, and bendable body for flexibility!
I cannot wait to see this in person!
