(Drag and drop for full size)

I didn’t actually feel like I did the series justice with last year’s Ouran print. So I decided to try again.. in bookmark form!

I put my heart and soul into each bookmark, and spent more than a couple hours on each. I probably spent the most time on the twins (Hikaru and Kaoru)… I couldn’t figure out how to draw them, so they were finished only days before the convention. I cut it a bit too close. >_> I’m really thankful people liked them so much, though!!

To those who wanted to buy the twins/set.. I’m really sorry about how quickly they sold out! We really weren’t expecting that. We have learned from our mistakes and we will be bringing our printer next year.. so it won’t happen again! XD;;

Also, posting this a little early, but I’m not sure if I’ll have time to update tomorrow. So yeah. P: Thanks for looking!

Another print I sold at Ai-kon! It’s my original character, Epic~ I’m really glad people liked this one! ^w^

In my portfolio, it went next to last year’s print of Epic. They were hard to match with any other prints of mine. X_x

I started this picture wanting to draw a star-shaped lollipop, rainbows, and pastels. I tried to keep the shading simple, soft, and warm. c:

Thank you for looking!

Something I doodled before Ai-kon~ I was feeling inspired, and I wanted to keep the shading simple but add different patterns~
Based off the nanaimo bar.

(and no, this wasn’t a print. It’s just filler~)

Hi guys, I’m back from Ai-kon! :3
I will be posting a journal (and blog post) about it once stuff settles down here, but I’ll start uploading some of my new merch now. : D I’ll probably post something every couple of days. I’ll probably post an original next.

Anyway, a headshot of Rin Okumura from Blue Exorcist (aka, Ao no Exorcist). I haven’t finished the series yet, I don’t know if I will… he’s a pretty awesome character. c:

This year, I tried doing proper line art and everything, because the sketchiness drove me crazy. :3

If I remember, this one sold out. So thank you to everyone who bought it (and/or wanted to) <333 Rin Okumura / Blue Exorcist © Kazue Kato
