Focusing on letting go, seeing where I'm headed as I keep moving forward. This piece is much more impressionistic than I usually do.

I added a piece of my own art (middle right) to one of my favorite pieces in my office (center by Emily Winfield Martin). I love my #workspace. It's somewhere that has slowly started to reflect my "style".

Ready for Spring 🪴
I can't keep my own plants alive, unfortunately. I wanted to practice backgrounds and more details in my pieces and this took about 4 days to get to a point where I could call it finished :)

This character looked like a real showman, so I named him Loki. Really happy with how the neon turned out!

I drew this based on a fashion design that I drew when I was 8 years old! I only feel okay drawing fur because I can say with certainty that no animals were harmed because of it ❄️

Has anyone else read The Magic Fish? It is written and illustrated by Trung Le Nguyen and was a fascinating mix of the past, present and fairytales. I felt inspired to draw a #selfportrait in his style. Give it a read!
