Hii! Here's a commission I did for a D&D character named Magdalena! I've been working on a lot of digital paintings recently, and it's been super fun to get back into!
I've recently started taking commissions, and I just finished my first one in a long time.
Since I send progress shots to clients as I'm working on the process, I thought I would show you the steps as well!

Hiiii! I wanna share the painting process for this piece; I used the Kuretake Gansai Travel Set that Kuretake sent to me to review!
I also used a flat Trekell brush for blocking in the first washes, the thinnest Kuretake water brush in the pack of three, the Zig clean color brushes, the Zig...

HIIIII! Here's a little cottage sticker that I made the other day when hanging out with an art friend. My shop is currently closed, but I want to have small shop updates with curated products, so this is the first of my designs!
Hey!
Here's the little update about why I had to take down my Netflix video and what happened afterwards! I wanna know your thoughts hahaha am I overreacting?

Hello!
I've recently been really loving using my P. Cezanne colored pencils with the Legion Stonehenge White paper and experimenting with mixing colors and textures. I've been loving Chris Hong's colored pencil work, as well as Bao Pham's, so if you're looking for inspiration, I recommend them!
For this walkthrough, I want to share how I built up deep, curly hair to have dimension!<...

Hi!
It's funny that I should post July's rewards when I haven't even designed June's, BUTTT I have extra fun things I'm putting in all orders so you can't be mad at me hahaha! I'm adding the holo sticker to all packages as a thank you for your patience, and the third photo (the painting) is also an extra thank you postcard!

Hi hi! I hope you're all doing well; this is a little rant about why I'm so late on rewards and what's kind of going on with me at the moment. If you have suggestions on any of this, let me know! I want to make sure you're satisfied with content, so if you have a suggestion on maybe digital rewards to supplement your tier with, let me knowwwww! I would really appreciate it.
Enjoy watching...

Hi hi!
Hope you're doing well; I finished the April and May sticker designs, but haven't sent out rewards just yet! I've been trying to work on Patreon content but the smallest things have been delaying content. I even filmed a vlog over a couple of days showing what a realistic work day looks like for me, but Premiere won't import the audio and I have no idea how to fix it! 2020-06-13 01:39:27 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey guys,
How are you all doing? I'm not gonna lie, I've been taking all the recent events pretty hard, and I've been trying to process everything over the past couple of days. I haven't really been able to sketch or edit videos, which is super inconvenient. It's hard to talk about online, and it's hard to mention being depressed about all the recent events since nothing I say ...
2020-05-31 02:13:10 +0000 UTC View PostHi hi friends!!
I have had no wifi and one data service bar thing for the past week, so I haven't really been able to hop on and chat. I've coincidentally had to post tons of sponsored posts on Instagram during this insanely hectic time, which seems disingenuine but I can't really help that! Sponsored posts are something that really stress me out; I am soooo careful with who I accept sponsor...
Hey guys! Hope you all are doing super well! I've been MIA with posting with my finals having just finished yesterday, as well as the bathroom remodel and packing my apartment up. I've been in a crazy hectic time, and just a heads up, I'll probs be a little MIA in the middle of this month with all the moving. I should still get the usual amount of rewards out for you (sketchbook pdf, real-time ...

Hey hey!
Here are updates on the tea packaging! I made these yesterday; we had to have the templates for our packaging done for today's critique, so I mapped out the template and designed the outside box for each of the tea types.

Hiiii! So, I closed on Tuesday on my new house! I didn't post because I IMMEDIATELY started the bathroom remodel and have been working on that along with schoolwork.
This was the damage day one:
Bathtub and shower taken out, as well as a wall partially ripped up.

Hi! How are you doing today?
I've had a long morning by now, planning house and remodeling things, getting ready for class and working on assignments, and later, I would really like to begin working on April's Patreon postcard and recording the process of painting that!

This is the real time drawing process for a Patreon sketch for Erin! She asked me to draw Eleven, and I had such a fun time doing this! I've been loving colored pencils recently, and they're just what I needed to get out of my creative rut!

Today I wanted to share a new school project I have to work on! It's a conceptual packaging design project, and you can check out the pdf attached for my proposal (I didn't realize I needed to have it done in class today, so I did it super quickly in two hours, don't judge!)

I hope you're doing well and safe and as happy as can be. I've been starting to organize my schedule better in the past couple of months, and I've begun letting myself take weekends instead of pressuring myself to work and feeling guilty if I rest. I don't always take Saturday and Sunday as rest days, but it means that two days a week I let myself have down time...

Hey guys! This is a sneak peak for a video that I'm editing today. The video is using inexpensive art supplies, and I painted it using the Koh-I-Noor watercolor stack pack (set of 24 colors for $9.42 off Blick). This is the first watercolor set I bought myself when I was getting serious about art and wanted to try watercolors. I remember really loving this set and thinking it was pigmented and ...

Hey guys!
I've been trying to make my Patreon cuter, and one thing I didn't love with my tiers were their names and how I didn't have any little thumbnails for them, so I decided to rename them and make some cute illustrations!
How do you guys feel about these new tiers?? Are you happy with them or did you like them more before?
2020-04-07 18:54:39 +0000 UTC View Post
Here's the quick Procreate process for the new Patreon tiers! I didn't love the names of the previous tiers, so I decided to work on something I was satisfied with, and I really like the outcome of these little drawings!

Hey guys! I wanted to show you some of my Procreate process for how I design stickers from start to finish.
