gloom

14 September 2020

With everything that’s happening these days, it’s so easy to feel sad or upset or angry – and that’s honestly an understatement. But it’s 100% okay to feel like that, it’s natural.
Just… be sure to take care of yourself and be kind to others. Everyone is fighting a battle right now, and a little bit of kindness or consideration can mean the world to someone who’s struggling.

(A little something I drew of my ACNH character, back in July.)

Commission: High Seas

7 September 2020

This was commissioned as a gift for Lora (Canephora Crafts) from earlier this year.
It’s been a very long time since I’ve drawn a pirate character, so between that and the pose/colour scheme, Tiarnan was really enjoyable to draw!!

Deciduous Delights

31 August 2020

Who’s ready for some cozy autumn evenings?~

I was actually working on something else, and I haven’t even really been playing pocket camp, but I couldn’t resist drawing Celeste for her gingko cafe event!! It’s kinda funny considering I drew something for their autumn event last year, too.

Glow

28 August 2020

The glowing festival lights, the sparkling fireworks, and her beaming smile.


It’s a little old now, but here’s my full piece for the Feathers SyaoSaku zine!
I had to redo parts in the background several times, but I learned a lot and I’m happy with the result~

Before it becomes history

24 August 2020

I had a feeling, looking into the clouds
I reached out my hand, with a stronger courage than I ever had.

from “Yasashisa no Riyuu” by ChoChou


It’s… hard to find words for this piece. I created it for the KyoAni charity zine, but it became a tribute for Kyoto Animation and Hyouka on it’s own.

So, I guess what I’ll say is,

Thank you Kyoto Animation, for creating such inspiring, meaningful series.
You’ve given me a sense of belonging, strength, joy, and hope, in some of the darkest times.
Thank you… thank you.

Afternoon in Sunfish Pocket

9 August 2020

My piece for the PSYNCIN’ IN THE ZaiNE charity zine!

It was difficult to decide on a concept for this one – I had so much I wanted to draw, and I pressured myself since this zine means a lot to me haha… oops. The background was a huge struggle too. But in the end, I wanted to give these characters some peace, away from the darkness seen in the game, and I’m really happy with how it turned out~
It’s an absolute honor to have this alongside all the other brilliant pieces in the AITSF zine!!

(In case anyone’s interested, here’s some detail shots!)

ACNH Pascal

3 July 2020

Give and take? Nah, it’s give and GIVE!

Drew this once the new ACNH update was announced! I really missed Pascal and his wisdom, along with the diving and mermaid furniture of course~
