About the Artist

Bio

Born in the south but raised in the PNW, I've been doing art for as long as I can remember. I'm mainly a traditional artist, who loves acrylic, pencil, and ink. Please don't ask me to draw digitally . I mostly do original artwork, but I'll sometimes draw fanwork if I really feel like it.

Interests

Video games: Single player rpgs, simulation games, and platformers. Manga: Sci-fi, horror, and fantasy. Reading: Classics, mystery, science fiction. Music: Breakcore, drum and bass, 2nd gen kpop, and electronic.

Currently Obsessed With

NASTYWERKKKK! - Femtanyl: Music to listen to while you force yourself to clean, Femtanyl makes super fun, loud, energetic electronic songs for people who like concentrated chaos as music. Her latest release is just as good as the rest.

World Trigger - Daisuke Ashihara: a totally underrated manga that I've loved since 6th grade. It has the best battles I've ever seen in any piece of fiction ever in terms of strategy and technique. If you like technical power systems like Nen or like battle manga in general, you'll totally love this series.

Projects in Progress

Original Character Ita-Bag

Ita-bags are very aptly named pain bags. I got this bag and a bunch of materials like beads, ribbon, keychains, some PVC photocard holders, and felt. I already have a plushie of Ninura (my OC) and have a felting figurine in process. Right now, I'm painting some images for badges and photocards to add on, but I can't get much done until then. Hopefully I can get it finished before a con I plan to attend in early September.

Seele Cosplay

Herrscher of Rebirth battlesuit skin

This is my favorite skin for my favorite Hi3 character. I have most of the coplay planned out, but of course, execution is always so difficult. In theory, the skirts aren't too complicated...but I have to rebone an entire corset which will be miserable. I have about a month to finish it and hopefully I'll actually be able to finish a handmade cosplay this time.
