So in 2013 I did a number of drawing tutorials in Colors 3D on my 3DS. Some of them were pretty popular! I think a few are still decent for beginners so I thought I'd share!
This link takes you to my basic hand drawing tutorial. it was my most popular piece!
Listening to More Ethereal Melodic Trance (https://www.amazon.com/Ethereal-Melodic-Trance-Various-Artists/dp/B000065UJN) while working really pumps me up for flowy styled art 🎶 🌊
Some wip stuff! I get to draw some water elementals for this job and boy, am I glad for CCS Clear Card because the way CLAMP illustrates Aqua in the manga is fantastic and very inspirational for my own watery creations.
I will always be in awe of those talented women.
More WIP for one of my jobs. These skeleton warriors were a pain, haha.
Here's SPACE, a little 5 page anxiety comic I did in 2014 (so long ago!) I found it when going through some old sketchbooks and I'm still rather fond of it so I thought I'd share!
I figured it was about time for a new icon (my old one was from 2016!)
The coloring was inspired by CLAMP's CCS art, I've always loved the soft colorwork in those illustrations.
The flowers are my three favs, muscari, peony, and forget-me-nots 💐 ❤️
The outline is in the colors of the Ace flag!
Working more on that kid's chapter book job. I started the interior stuff so here's my rough for chapter one!
Finally finished this unicorn pattern! Got it up on my redbubble now~
(the for sale version doesn't have the watermark)

Some character designs for the kids' chapter book I'm illustrating. The clothes are inspired by Polynesian traditional clothes, but meant to reflect the cold environment of the story (like, instead of beautiful grass skirts and accents, soft wool roping/tassels) They'll have cloaks on over top as well, but I wanted to share these without the outfits being hidden.
(that's my birdsite handle btw)

Psst! I love Kid Cat!! #animalcrossing #clipstudiopaint
I'm making cover collages for all the sticker sets I've made and I really liked how this one turned out! I just...really like flowers I guess?
I'm finally starting to add stuff to my Art Station account. I don't know why I kept putting it off, haha.
I only have four projects up atm, but each has multiple images.
