I finally finished these two! The Sun and The Moon side by side. They're actually meant to be displayed the other way around, since the backgrounds are actually meant to flow together, which was a neat little thing while I was planning. Below is a preview of both:

We’re live! they came out so good :) I’m so excited to make more sticker designs in the future for sure. These were so fun to make. These will be going out to new pledgees (is that a word?) who sign up to support my work either at the new Gardener Tier ($1) or the Champion tier ($10/mini prin...

I've been going back and forth on making a post here talking about my feelings about what's going on with the protests because, well, I feel like I've been shouting about it non-stop on social media as is, but I always appreciate the fact that Patreon is a platform I can expand my thoughts on and...

Hello, all!
This is my first painting in what feels like forever. I finally sat down to tackle this drawing challenge after seeing so many amazing takes on the sailor moon redraw challenge. This was my take!
I also filmed the whole painting process (or most of it, I believe), wh...

I'm spending this afternoon after work making swatch tabs/squares of all my paints, starting with these molotow acrylic paints (the kind that goes inside molotow/posca markers), so I can choose color combinations quickly when planning a painting.
How are you all spending your day?

They’re here! just in time for my new tier opening. Here‘s how my first mini print turned out. I really love them. They’re 5x7” on semi-matte heavy cardstock and came out super lovely.

Enjoying making these marker sketches! I tried something different with this one and inked it with brush vs. with a pen. I like the brush outcome much more. the variety in line weight gives it a charm the others were lacking, I think. And bless my scanner for not letting me down and scanning thes...

I tried painting today! after not having painted since I graduated from college way too long ago, this was.... humbling. I apparently forgot that, unlike digital, I can't paint everything in one sitting because I get sloppy when I get tired. I also needed a much smaller brush to ink with. ;-; Les...

I've been following this show since it's inception, and as we're about to go into the end of it, I have One Wish: that Arya makes it back home in one piece. That's it. That's the extent of my wishlist. Plucky little Arya (not so little now) has been one of my favorites since the beginning.

So, this whole thing about me keeping to a limited color scheme? forget it. I tried. It failed, lmao. Give me all the neons and bright ass colors, that's my mood for 2019.

Hello, all.
I'm relaunching this patreon as a tip jar :) I debated back and forth on this for a while, but got encouragement from friends and others on twitter. I'd still love to keep this open and decided a super chill, laid back tipjar type set up was a much better use of this space...

The myth goes that Typhon, a giant son of Gaia (also funnily enough, father of Cerberus, the three headed dog guarding the gates of hell) was ENRAGED due to a Bad Thing (honestly, the myth differs depending on who tells it. Some say Gaia sent him against the gods, others say something bad happened t...

There's this tag around going on Twitter about what our influences are for us artists, and I figured I'd share mine! A lot of these were early influences I learned about in school, a few I found surfing the internet, and one I totally mislabeled ;p

I'm... so in love with this gold/black/brown combo and the vibes of mermay in general aligning with my love for all things mythical that I think I might just drown in these mermaids for a while (don't worry, don't worry, I'm working on Pisces/Escape, too!).

Happy Monday! Here's the finished prelim for Pisces: Escape.
I'm pleased with how this came out! I would say it's 98% finalized. There's some stuff yet that needs to be added to the backround (the shape of a giant's hand, a couple more super faded trees), but I don't think I could add it on ...

And here it is! Finally finished after so much work on it. For those who are not familiar with the story, the waterbearer, as I have chosen to interpret it, is based off the story of Ganymede, son of Troy, whom Zeus was so infatuated with that he turned into a swan and stole Ganymede to be the cupbe...

Mermaids are my thing and I never draw them enough. I can’t remember where I saw the advice “draw like yourself,” but much like “draw what you love” it’s really kind of mindblowingly simple advice yet also world changing. Keeping a sketchbook this year is as much about coming up with ide...
