Hii, my newsletter has just arrived in your inbox. If you'd like to join aimeesart, you can:

Excerpt from aimeesart (newsletter): "You ever had a little uncensored whisper of what you actually want to do, who you actually want to be, etc? That whisper you constantly shove down because “it isn’t realistic” or “I can’t do that”. That whisper of hope is the you you’d be without any societal limitations. For me, that whisper has long past transformed into a scream. I have no idea how I’ll get there or make it real, but I know that whisper/scream is what I truly want. It bubbled up into an intense..."

Here's a small sneak peek of July's #newsletter, where I talk all about my first time at San Diego Comic Con. 🤓 If you're already part of aimeesart, it's waiting for you in your inbox. 💌

Drawing of Aimee excited in a black dress and big chunky black shoes. They have heart eyes, and the speech bubble reads "Tokidoki!" Text reads: My Fav Dress. It feels very gender neutral. For me, dresses are a lazy way to look put together.

Hello! Here’s a sneak peek of the first monthly comic in my newsletter.

January 2025:
Page 1 from my January 2025 Comic. Panel 1: Fire creates a big cloud of smoke. Caption: “This isn’t the first time fire worried me.” Panel 2: I fly as I point out the window where smoke seeps through. Caption 1: “It was maybe a couple of months ago when the smoke clogged the air.” Caption 2: “I could smell it seeping into the apartment.” Panel 3: My hands rub my temples and I close my eyes in pain. Caption: “It caused headaches. I wasn’t feeling right.” Panel 4: Smoke from Panel 2 appears and I am lying on the floor. Caption: “I remember laying on the floor to escape the windows.” Panel 5: I drink tea. Ginger and lemon slices float around. Caption 1: “I used lemon ginger tea to help my allergy-like symptoms.” Caption 2: “piece of ginger 15 min in hot water” Caption 3: “add slice of lemon last few min” Panel 6: Inside an empty tea cup holds part of the caption. Caption: “But other than that, I didn’t know what to do.” Page 2 from my January 2025 Comic. Panel 1: My hand holds a phone showing an app displaying fires. The background shows dead trees and rubble. Caption: “ It was not even a week after hearing about the LA fires Neighborhoods burned to the ground Landlords inflating rent for the suddenly homeless Making life even harder during a traumatic time” Panel 2: Flames shine bright as a building burns and rubble piles up. Caption: “Many having no time to grieve…” Panel 3: I hold my phone showing a black reflection of my sad face. Then there’s the car window view of the fire. Caption: “So imagine how I felt seeing a fire close to my home. I saw flames from my car window.”

This was created on printer paper when I had some downtime at work. Maybe a year or two ago? #coloredpencil #art
A colored pencil portrait of a person with striking eyes gazes at the viewer. An unusual white mask obscures parts of their face. The person's aesthetic embraces alternative fashion.
