I've got a TON of goodies to share with you all this month. 50 pages of sketchbook drawings, 28 pieces of process pictures, and a brand new wallpaper! It's been a busy month and it's only getting busier. H...

Happy Valentine's Day + new calendar piece!

Hello everyone!

Hope you are having a good start to your week so far! Remember how I said I was working on a calendar for 2018? Well, I've JUST finished the piece for February and I wanted to share it with you all! It's very Valentine's themed for sure, but I wanted to focus more on the getting together and sharing of love rather than the ~romance/teddy bears/chocolate~ spiel that companies forc...

Photoshop tutorial: Sailor Moon series!

Hello everyone!

As promised,  today I am sharing a walkthrough process of the Fight Like a Girl! series. This series primarily explores digital painting with a hint of graphic design and texture. So without further ado, let's dive right on into seeing how this series was made! :D

NEW SERIES: February Moon girls

Hi everyone!

I'm excited to share with you a new series that I've been working on in the month of February. For each day of February I will draw a girl based on the changing of the moon phases. I've been posting them all to Twitter  and Instagram 2017-02-11 00:52:09 +0000 UTC View Post

FIGHT LIKE A GIRL! all images! :D

Hi everyone!

I wanted to share this post again because the images from the previous posts didn't show up.  I tried out a new photo sharing website and I think that's what caused the problem, but all the images should show up now! So I present to you the complete Fight Like a Girl series! <3

Fight Like a Girl! series continued :D

Hello everyone!

Hope you have all been doing well. <3 I wanted to share more pieces that I've recently completed for the Sailor Moon Fight Like a Girl series! It's been a lot of fun getting back into digital painting with a bit of graphic design elements mixed in. Getting the opportunity to draw these powerful and honestly, very very cool, women has been such a treat and I'm glad I get to pay...

Symmetra's cozy morning!

Hi everyone! 

 We've made it, this is the final piece in the Overwatch ladies national food series! The final piece features Symmetra snacking on some somasas (how's that for alliteration?) in a chicly decorated apartment. Since Symmetra values order and balance, I thought it'd be nice to have those sentiments reflected in her environment as well! 

 Thank you so much fo...

The dragon becomes BOTH OF US

Hi everyone!

I'm excited to share a new series of Overwatch guys to go with the series of Overwatch ladies I drew. I went in a different direction stylistically for the dudes because I felt like it fit the characters better. It was a lot of fun working in this graphic, lineless style and I think it helps them stand apart from the style in which I drew the ladies. Not only was it fun, ...

A sweet postcard design for February! <3

Hello everyone!

Hope you all have been doing alright. <3 

I wanted to share with you the postcard art for this month's $10 patrons! As previously mentioned, the theme I'm following for this year's postcard rewards is headphones. Since this is for the month of February, I wanted to draw something overly sweet and sugary to celebrate Valentine's/Galentine's /Single Awareness/however ...

Tracer's Sunday roast! :D

Hi everyone!  

Here's yet another piece in the continuing series of Overwatch ladies eating foods from their countries of origin! Today's piece features Tracer enjoying a simple Sunday roast  in a relaxing and calm environment. A classic British meal fit for a classic British gal like Tracer! Tracer move...

Sombra's quick lunch!

 Hi everyone!

I'm excited to show you another piece in the continuing Overwatch ladies national foods series! This piece features Sombra chowing down on a plate of tacos. Tacos are one of my favorite Mexican food (and I like a LOT of Mexican food...) and I would think Sombra enjoys them as well! Plus they're quick to make and practically portable, qualities she seems to value based...

Fight like a Girl! New Sailor Moon art series :D<3

Hi everyone! 

I'm excited to share a new series that I've been working on with you all! It features the girls from Sailor Moon and is called "Fight Like a Girl!". The first piece I've completed features Sailor Mars (she's my favorite) and I've already finished both Venus and Jupiter. 

This idea has deviated quite a bit from the original idea I had for this series (SM portraits ba...

Mercy's day off!

Hi everyone! 

 Here's another piece from the Overwatch ladies national foods series (whew what a name!) and this time it features Mercy! Since Mercy is from Switzerland I thought it perfect to have her enjoying a meal of melted raclette cheese laid on top of meat and potatoes. Doesn't that sound delicious albeit extremely filling? :D

Working in copics and ink has been fulfilling ...

PHOTOSHOP COLORING TUTORIAL: Junkrat! :D

Hi everyone!

Today's post is a Photoshop tutorial (yay!), but whether or not you have Photshop hopefully you can take away something useful! This method can be used in any digital painting program. The polyagonal tool is not a necessity, just a way to achieve sharp angles and lines. If your program has a brush tool and an eraser tool, then you're good to go. 

Now let's get into the tu...

Mei from Overwatch national foods series <3

Hi everyone!

Here's another piece I completed from the Overwatch national foods series this time featuring Mei! Xiao long bao is one of my favorite Chinese dishes. I thought it would be the perfect steamy food for Mei to enjoy as she's doing her research in freezing temperatures. >u<

All pieces in this series are done using copics and ink! ^^

Zarya's Piroshki picnic!

Hi everyone!

The second piece in the Overwatch national foods series features Zarya! :D I haven't had Russian food before, but I did some research and found the lovely dish known as Piroshki. It consists of a fried bun with filling, usually meat or veggies, but can also contain fish or fuits! Either way it sounds delicious and I could see Zarya enjoying some as a quick snack during her downtime....

THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN Overwatch dudes complete! >:D

Hello everyone!

I've got some new art, hot off the presses to share with you all. I've finished the dudes from Overwatch and WOW does it feel good to be done! I will say, they are the most challenging characters I've drawn in awhile (I think Reinhardt gave me the most trouble...all that armor...), but I had a lot of fun drawing them regardless! 

I'd like to make this series into stick...

D.Va's KBBQ cookout!

Hello everyone!

I'm excited to share with you the first piece in my newest traditional art series done with copics and ink. I wanted to explore different types of food that the ladies of Overwatch would eat based on their nationalities and D.Va cookin' up some kbbq seemed like a no-brainer!

How I plan and sketch COPIC pieces! :D

Hello everyone!

Today I am here to share with you how I plan out my copic pieces! This process applies to any traditional medium that involves coloring in a sketch. It can be a daunting task, especially if you've spent a lot of time on your sketch and don't want to mess it up! These are the steps I take to make sure I know what I'm doing before I excitedly begin coloring my artwork. Feel free to...

Overwatch ladies TRADITIONAL copic art series COMPLETE! >:D

Hello everyone! 

It's been a solid month of on and off work, but I've finally completed the Overwatch ladies national food series! :D Each piece features a lady from Overwatch enjoying a food dish from their nation. This is the first time I've attempted filling an entire page with copics and I'm really jazzed with how it came out. I definitely made some mistakes, but I learned a lot AND had...

Overwatch's Shimada brothers! :O

Hi everyone!

I'm currently working through the Overwatch guys and finished Genji and Hanzo yesterday! They're such serious boys, I had to put them in dramatic poses. 

I'm having a lot of fun working in this style! It places more emphasis on shape and movement, which is always interesting to practice. I'm discove...

Vickisigh CALENDAR: first piece completed!

Hi everyone! :D

Hope you are all having/had a lovely Sunday! As previously mentioned, I'm working on creating a calendar for 2018 and I recently finished the artwork for January (pictured above). I'm really happy with how it came out! I've been working in Photoshop recently and it's been fun playing around with different brushes and tools to achieve a blocky and modern style. If you're curious a...

Overwatch GUYS??? :O WHaaaat? Blasphemy!

Hello everyone! 

2 posts in one day, what is this nonsense? This trickery? This foolishness!

Nothing of the sort, but I did promise more art and it's comin' down the pipes for ya. ;D I'm guessing most of you have seen the Overwatch ladies I did and finished recently. I had a lot of fun drawing them and I was gonna stop there, but a part of me was itchin' to draw the guys as well. And,...

Hello everyone!

Hope you all had a relaxing and fun holiday! I've eaten so much food these past few days I'm probably set for the entirety of 2017. I've got a really fun new art series to share with you, but first some housekeeping!

Welcome back, I hope you have all been well! I've got a very fun collection of drawings, walkthroughs, and wallpapers for you this month. It's been awhile since I've drawn this much and I owe a big part of the artistic inspiration to Overwatch! The majority of the art this month centers around the characters from the game and I've had a lot of fun exploring different environments...

As promised, today I am sharing with you a tutorial! On what you may ask? Why thank you for asking young child who just happened to be passing by, it's a cell-shading tutorial woohooooo! The process I'm about to show you is the same that I used for ALL the Overwatch ladies I recently posted as well as how I cell-shade in general. There aren't many steps, so hopefully it'll be eas...
