We had the first snowfall of the season yesterday! Winter is right around the corner! #kidlitart
A digital drawing of a nighttime winter scene. A young girl is sleepily riding a brown horse through the snow, a dog walking beside it. In the distance a fox is searching for a rabbit.

Another artwork from 2022, this was my first time experimenting with painting completely in greyscale and then using layer effects to add colour afterwards. I found it took longer than normal, but the results made up for it!

A digital painting of a child holding a lantern in one hand and a stuffed rabbit in the other. He is surrounded by trees and giant mushrooms. In the foreground is a tiny fairy laying on top of a mushroom.

I've had a bit of a fascination with drawing bugs lately. It's fun to balance personifying them enough to convey emotions while still keeping them recognizable as bugs
A grey scale digital drawing. Depicted is a cartoon fly, dressed as a clown, handing a balloon to a happy baby caterpillar. A moth is handing the fly a coin while holding another baby caterpillar.

New website means I have a backlog of old art to post 😊
I digital drawing of a circus poster. In the centre is a ringman, who is a bumble bee dressed in a red jacket and top hat. Below are two fairy trapeze artists. There is a gilded frame with 'welcome to the circus' on it.
