Happy MAY!! Spring is my favorite season. It's kind of a melancholy season, you know? It's so big.
I love drawing bikes. They're intimidating at first, but so simple and elegant. All the parts are laid out right there, brakes, pedals, gears. They make sense in a way that I don't think other...

This is what I've been working on this month! I officially signed with an agent (Stephanie Winter with P.S. Literary) and have been working on a pitch packet for a graphic novel. I started writing the script last year. Now I'm putting together the character bios and summary and such.
It's g...

But I have introduced some new tiers that I'm really excited to share with you.
Firstly, the former Reine tier has now been renamed Daup...
Next month's sticker design, inspired in part because I've been sooo dehydrated recently. It's important to stay hydrated! I drink out of a wide mouth Ball jar with a metal straw. Sometimes I spice it up by pouring my La Croix over ice. It's the little things, y'all.

IT'S ARIES SEASON, BABEY!!
I'm still working with my sticker printing company to figure out how to best format for print with cool bg (like, holo and glitter and stuff). So we'll see how this turns out, but I think it'll look really cool.

I watched Portrait of a Lady on Fire for the second time recently. Both times, I became so wistful for oil painting. I don't really have the space to set up an oil painting studio, or the time to go somewhere to do oil painting... so I thought I would experiment a little bit with doing a painterl...

I'm obsessed with Aviator Pharah! Should I make this a print? 😳
I have an agent?? I'm working on a graphic novel! It's a college-aged new adult story, a romance drama!
So far I have a beginning-to-end script draft, but I need to make this story twice as long as it is. I have lots of room to flesh things out
I'll likely be posting updates and qu...
Fran and I got dressed up for part 3 of her birthday. Our outfits were really good.

I started this drawing at TGIFF. I don't think it's done yet. The sun is in my eyes at this coffee shop, so it's hard to see the colors accurately. I'll revisit it later under better visual conditions.
Also I realized that I didn't get any half-way saves of drawing the chair. The chair was ...

As first conceptualized at January's Ink and Drink, I'm proud to announce the March sticker design. I have been really leaning in to American trad as a style for these stickers. This sticker will be 100% Patreon exclusive and twice the size of previous stickers. Once they're gone, they're gone! 2020-02-07 19:15:56 +0000 UTC View Post

Another comic testing out a future feature here on my Patreon. Looking forward to doing more regular comics for you all in the near future!

I submitted this baby for the Portland Zine Symposium anthology! This year is PZS's 20th anniversary, so the theme of the anthology is... 20 things. I did 20 outfits! One for every year from 2000 to 2019, age 6 to 25.
I'm never too far away from a black knee high boot.

My next comic for Autostraddle! It's loosely based on a conversation I had with a friend. Fire signs rise up.

The third and final installment of my travel comics for POME Mag is awaiting editorial approval! Here's a little preview of what's to come, including a rough draft page for comparison.
Pearl has always been a favorite of mine. She's relatable in a big way! I loved the new fusion from the Volleyball episode. And of course, any time Utena is referenced in SU, I go feral.
With this illustration, I wanted to approach the Utena reference. I referenced an Anthy/Utena image for ...
