For our study on focal point, we made newpaper page inspired collages! I quite enjoyed this, and I like the aesthetic that this style of art created...

*scrambles onto mermay wagon* OKAY FINE! haha just a little something I did for fun today.

We made our patterns In class, it was a surprisingly complicated process haha. But I based it off of some things I loved about Maryland!

Happy mermay.... again haha. Now I feel like I'm committed XD

I am really happy with this art piece! Accomplishing it helped me to realize I could create art with far more stylization than I ever thought I was capable of. This came out of an illustration class and I'm SO glad I took it!








Marked (Preview)
Hope this little preview gets you just as excited as I am! I’ve officially started on my first graphic novel which, for the time being, is called Marked. I’ll be posting pages of the novel weekly on Fridays, so be looking forward to that.
I’ll give you more of a summary next week with the title page and page one. But I feel like it’s important to say this now: this book addresses mental illness, specifically anxiety and depression. It’s just as much for those who are clinically diagnosed as it is for family members, friends, or anyone who wants to better understand. Hopefully it can help you or a loved one to gain insight on these situations. Please share this with family and friends, and get the word around. I hope to be able to influence as many people as possible! :)
Thank you!






For class I’m experimenting with different styles, as well as coloring. This was just some fun stuff that I did!

Sorry it took a little while to get this page out. I’ve had it done but haven’t posted it, haha. Ironically, I’m still struggling with my own depression and anxiety while trying to complete this project. But worry not-- this is too important for me to give up.
Thanks again for your patience!


It’s a Deenosaur!
Currently still a work in progress, but I really like how it’s looking so far. In a few weeks, we’ll get to see how it looks when it’s fully colored! That’s pretty exciting.
From pencil to computer... it really makes quite a difference! Man I love technology

Are you hoping to develop a new art style? Just starting on your artistic journey? Looking for helpful tips or tricks? Then you’ve come to the right place! I offer art classes, which consist of traditional drawing (pen and ink) or digital drawing. If you want to get to know Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator better (or perhaps Autodesk, Sketchbook, or Procreate) I offer classes for that too. Art classes are $10 an hour, we can work one on one or pull a group together. I also do illustration work. If you would like a commission or work of art, please message me and we will work out the details. Prices vary depending on complexity. Feel free to message me for more information!

Underfell-- Turn Around...
I was reading an underfell comic and got the urge to redraw a couple scenes... Because the comic is super great and undertale is the best game ever and how can you say no am I right?
It was also a great opportunity to practice coloring and mess with color adjustments. The first one is the final image (after the filters) and the second one is the first image (before the filters)
The comic I was reading was by Kaitogirl on Deviantart


The final look at my “Deenosaur” project! Essentially, he’s Barney’s arch-nemesis... I had a lot of fun with this, and I worked really hard on it, haha. But the harder you work on something, the more it means to you. Enjoy!

Life is a struggle but WE KEEP CHUGGING ON ANYWAY! Sorry the updates are slow going. This page isn’t technically finished either haha. But I think it’s best to say what you need to say rather than worry about making everything perfect...

Mixing and matching different styles. Every page might end up looking different, haha.
If ya sum it up, that's basically what he says. XD LOVE THIS GAME

PunkBots
Playing around with character design and color swatches. Said swatches come from a book called “Color Inspirations” by Darius A Monsef, and each color set has a name. The one for PunkBoy is called “Good Boys” and the one for PunkGirl is “Gaelic Swans”. I had fun putting the design together, and I’m interested in seeing what ideas others have about the possibly personalities or stories for these characters. So have at it. I’d love to see what people come up with, so please be sure to tag me!
