cara mia . . . ( early access )

It was my twelfth(!!) dating anniversary with Theo on the 7th, so just did a lil mushy drawing for him♥  


My husband and I got together we were 18 and, as much as I'm sure people are sick of hearing it, I truly adored him from about three weeks in and every day since. He is  my warrior lumberjack, my vampire anime prince, the gentlest guardian to all our fur kids, and I am endlessly grateful to be a person who gets to love him. 


I know a lot ...

OJJA WOJJA . . . ( WIP )

I've had some difficulty getting back into my comic work, but finally gotten some semblance of a ball rolling. 


Just kind of funny looking at this panel that I initially did back in like, July, when I was really struggling to work and I wasn't planning on redoing when I went back to the page but... you know me :D I don't remember how long I spent on the first pass but it was probably way longer than I should have while my second pass took me only like 20mins and looks a ...

le renard . . . ( early access )

Finally got around to doing my half of an art trade with one of my mutuals!

 Logan Riley did a great painting based on one of my selfies a couple months ago and suggested I do his incorporating the kinda mask style he likes to use in his own work, so this is what a fox mask prompt turned into. 

Hope he digs it!


(Oh, also, this was the painting Logan did, in case you didn't see it...

October 2020 • HI-RES PDF 🎃

Well... 'twould seem Halloween is over once again :')


Normies are putting away seasonal decorations and abandoning increasingly decayed pumpkins, folks are posting that Nightmare Before Christmas gif of the mayor yelling:

hellooo nurse . . . ( 18+ monthly fanart )

Obviously I had to go with your Silent Hill suggestion for this month's spicy fanart... the perfect creepy babe for our Halloween pinup!♥ As much as I love this game series, I actually haven't done all that much art inspired by it, so always glad for an third-party prompt to motivate me ^.^

please know that while I was working on this,  my husband just walked in the room, laughed at me, then left.... The things I endure in appreciation of La Booty :')

just ghoul things . . . ( monthly fanart )

I've been wanting to do this prompt for a while and finally felt like I had the energy/inspiration this month, so did your aged-up Ghoul School gals suggestion!! 

I wanted to give them looks that were both reminiscent of their canon outfits as well as something modern teenagers would wear, and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out... I just love drawing folks doing goofy expressions ♥


For the uninitiated, this is wha...

the apple . . . ( studies )

I was looking at my apple witch from yesterday and had a nagging feeling of it being similar to another drawing I did ages ago so obviously I had to go look it up.

 The drawing was old enough that I didn't have it just saved to my desktop but it was on my Deviantart so now I can share it with you in its full 2010 glory. The one of the left is from my college years when I was first being actually taught about digital painting and I wanted to do a vampire Snow White or somet...

The woods were dark and full of terrors they said, but then again... weren't the not-woods just the same?

Been trying a new work strategy of setting twenty minute time limit to focus on one drawing/panel before either switching or moving onto the next step, and I feel like it's actually been pretty helpful the last couple of days! 

Another drawing I sketched out in September that I'm just putting a bow on now, think it came out with a cool...

the beekeeper ... ( early access )

Alright, go ahead, get all your Wicker Man, "NOT THE BEES" references out of your system, I realize that this drawing will inevitable trigger an immense compulsion to say it so now's your chance. 


Did you do it? Okay, cool.


I started this one back in September when it was slightly more seasonally-appropriate but had to put it down for a bit, so now it's an October post instead :D

lettering process . . . ( comics )

One of those steps in my work flow that I'm not sure is interesting to anyone else, but just comparing my initial placement/spacing for this page to my second, final pass. This short is mostly interior narration so I got to be a bit creative with how I could approach it and its aesthetic, good practice for me just in general

Background for a comic panel that I thought was rather atmospheric. I'm a sucker for drawing a room that looks like someone lives in it and then just heckin' it up with neat lighting.

18+ Fanart Request: October 2020

Hey there, sexy cappuccinos! Welcome to the less-safe-for-work fanart poll, you know what to do (aka leave some scandalous character suggestions below) 

To confirm, you can suggest the same character prompts both here and in the PG13 poll, just so long as they meet my other usual criteria of being adults in their source material! I'm looking forward to some nice 'n' Halloween-y suggestions this month, I've been busy with work stuff so sadly haven't had a ton of time for season...

haunted office . . . ( studies )

about an 30-40min study of my office, freehand and from memory 

(which I know sounds weird because like... I drew this while sitting in my office but I was trying to remember its layout and all its items without turning around ??)


Kinda a neat angle of my workspace because it's the view when you look into the mirror I have on my one wall, only in this version, you can't see anyone looking... spoOOooky :0

delilah . . . ( process )

Sharing this before and after because in that Dishonoured drawing I managed to do the super complicated/detailed floral costume in more or less one pass but i spent probably almost TWO GD HOURS TRYING TO GET HER FACE RIGHT


you might wonder how one could spend so long on drawing a face, surely there are only so many parts to a face? 

oh you sweet summer child
