i know this is my ✨professional artist account✨ but it is also autism month and i am #actuallyautistic so i'm feeling like migrating my autistic fictional character headcannons over here from the old world would be an excellent idea. hmmmmm

Rhystic Study - painted for MTG's Wilds of Eldraine. Probably my favourite painting I've ever made.

you know what, what the heck, we're posting now!

i dubbed this one "Space Race" and ngl it's how it felt trying to get onto this website & escape from the other one. crammed into a tiny little space navigating a very confusing, crowded process (although i think this character is having more fun)

hi! I'm Rachel, and i LOVE watercolors, floofy cloud shapes, & fairytales!

it took a minute to decide what to share because I have SO many WIPs and most of my finished illustrations are over a year old at this point (thanks, art school burnout!), but here are a few that I'm still quite proud of ✨

i somehow do not have ANY finished illustrations that are green, but plenty of sketchbook spreads? so this is a sketchbook share for me!

🌿 repost with your green art! 🌿

I loved this and wanted to create a little comic for it. This is how I imagined the exchange going. I hope you like it @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com ☺️

happy #BisexualVisibilityDay! to celebrate I'd like to share an illustration inspired by a song a former roommate of mine wrote & produced 💖💜💙 here's to all the joy and connection I have found over the years—and also the time my best friend told me "Rachel, you don't need statistics to be bisexual."

hi! I'm Rachel, and I LOVE watercolors, floofy cloud shapes, & fairytales! my main focus is on creating magical kidlit illustrations.

I have a lot of WIP illustrations I'm working to finish so I can post some new things, but in the meantime, here's some old favorites from the portfolio✨

my day job is entering its slow season, so there's been a lot of downtime—so i've started a series of what i call "workadoodles," which is a thinly-veiled boredom activity disguised as me saying i want to "draw more."

we'll see what i come up with today!

it's either a shitpost that takes way too long to make or a full-blown illustration that ALSO takes way too long to make, there is no in-between
