I'm very proud of this painting of our cat, Zoey! Being new to watercolor in general and not knowing how to paint creatures did not hold me back! ✨ I'm feeling very motivated to improve as time goes on :)

Treated myself to this hardcover collection of Midst comics! Been a huge fan of the podcasts, so to have this kickass piece of art in my collection brings me immense joy 🥰

Inspiration struck today and in preparation for some other stuff I redesigned my itch.io page! Will probably tweak it a bit more but I am veeeeery happy with it 🥰

Check it out for yourself 💖

Also, I did most of the 2D Art this time around! I'm not really an artist, but I did my best and it was really fun! Here's Detective Bobert Bubbles at the scene of the crime, early in development 👀

Aside from working on the wizard game, I tried my hand at pixel art and made a simple tileset and character! I always wanted to learn pixel art, so I'll take it slow :)
