I've been hinting that I've been working on a project behind the scenes for the last few months. It's finally time to reveal said project! I've been working on a webcomic for the last few months! It's exciting and an totally different direction than people probably expect from me. I've been mostly working on the... Continue Reading →
Creature Designs and Art Challenges
ETA: this post got away from me. I should have published it months ago, but got busy behind the scenes with other projects. I am working on a secret project. In the mean time I have been working on designing characters and creatures said project. Creature designs are a new endeavor for me. I don't... Continue Reading →
New Art: Adobe Sketch and Draw
I've been mostly working with digital these days. I've always dabble in digital painting, even as a young high schooler (so, so many years ago). Now that I've invested in a tablet that can work with the Apple Pencil and use the art programs, it's been a fun return to focus mainly on digital drawing... Continue Reading →
Adobe Education Exchange: Illustrator
I have a hate-hate relationship with learning Illustrator. I have avoided it for most of my life. Many attempts were made on my behalf to try and master this beast. I could never really "get" this program or vector graphics. Pretty much any Creative Cloud program I could intuitively learn with some effort. Not Illustrator...... Continue Reading →
New Art: Entranced (Venus Art Show, part 2)
Remember when I was working on a new painting for the Venus Show? I sent it off earlier this week! The show opens this Saturday at La Bodega. I'm excited to participate in the exhibition with so many talented artists. I did not photograph the process very much towards the last half. I was worried... Continue Reading →
New Splash page!

One of the things I notice whenever I click a link on somebody's instagram, I really like easy access to finding the particular thing I want to see (usually comics, ha!). Most artists use a resource like Linktree, but... Continue Reading →

I seem to do this thing where I let an upcoming art exhibition I've been invited to sneak up on me and then I have to hustle in order to get things done. Luckily I got my iPad recently and needed another opportunity to learn Clip Studio Paint. CSP is available as the full version... Continue Reading →
Artist Tips: Society6 – Beating the Algorithm part 2
I'm back to my series of posts that will try to pick apart my okay-success (let's face it, there are better ways to earn cash, this is not one of them) with Society6. A lot of what I learned, I learned through testing out the methods mentioned in the Society6 Seller's Guide. I suggest check... Continue Reading →

Goals for 2019
I was going to do a year end wrap up last month for the ol' blog, but life had a way of getting hitting me like a dump truck, one of them being my chronically sick cat finally passed away (RIP) and then starting up the new semester. However, I am determined to get back... Continue Reading →
