Revisiting Hecate with a fun portrait. This is a piece that I started on stream and was a little worried about her for much of the process but in the end I really like how she turned out! I'm definitely in the mood for October already.
I have so many works in progress piled up at the moment, which is kind of a weird feeling for me. Usually I like to finish artwork befor...
I have been dying to do this tutorial for a while! As you may have noticed, I'm a little bit obsessed with clingy transparent fabric! All the goddesses in my series are draped in this fabric! It looks so elegant, mysterious, whimsical, magical, ethereal just *chef's kiss*! So I'm excited to bring you this tutorial detailing the brushes and process I use to achieve this f...

It's a hot day and Mist is wondering why you are still on the lawn and not in the pool! lol
In discussing the plushie options on discord with folks, a really good point was made that Mist doesn't have enough PR! lol Which made me think I don't draw her enough. On top of that I have been noticing a few poses on twitter of characters leaning over and I realized that I ...
It's been a while since I participated in a DTIYS, so when someone in twitch chat suggested Lumeree's wonderful challenge, I decided to jump aboard. Such a fun and magical design!!

We have a couple options again for the spicy print! Help us decide!
Endless scrolling. Comforting because it numbs out emotions, consuming what makes us human. We consume content and in turn, it consumes us.
This image came to me on this bus this morning as I was scrolling through social media. I think most of us see this problem, and yet I don't know that we'll do anything to counteract it. I certainly don't.
