They are such special dogs, I remember you saying at that art show how much you really wanted a shepherd and it's so cool to see you living your dream! 💖

Last year, an author mentioned my shop on her substack. It changed my income so drastically that this is the spike of orders from that *one* mention last year. Word of mouth for an artist can change everything.

I hear it’s the most important meal

making bad art is very cool and chic actually

“I want to share what I know.” A woman shares her screen on zoom.

“I want a fluffy coat!” She says, “I feel like Florence Welch or Stevie Nicks!”

“and to find someone special.” The woman is living her best life with a tattooed partner who has an accent.

Interestingly, shortly after I drew this I did find a fluffy coat in a thrift shop which is now my fav jacket — so perhaps it is worth writing down the things you would like, also! no matter how big or small. (3/3)

“I want to change every detail.” A woman is crying at her desk in front of a laptop.

“Everything will be different this time.” A woman is on a train with a dog in her lap.

“I want to throw a dinner party for all of my friends.” There is a beautiful banquet table.

“I will appreciate my body.” A woman stands in the ocean and says, “I’m not pregnant, I just ate 3 croissants!”

The moon asks, “what do you want?” A woman replies, “I don’t know.”

The moon says, “you have one life, it is yours.” She thinks, “dramatic, but true.”

The moon looms, “you can choose what it will be… Just ask.”

The woman says, “I’ll whisper it…”

Happy Lunar New Year! 🌝 talking to the moon~

This is a comic I started in December that I didn’t quite know how to finish. I wanted to manifest some things for myself in 2026. (1/3)

A Lunar New Year illustration depicting a smiling horse standing in a field. They are being offered a flower by a rabbit in a dress. A dog person is sitting on the horse brushing it and a cat is standing nearby looking at the horse admiringly. Beneath the horse are the words "may 2026 be kind to you". To the right are the Chinese characters: "恭喜發財" (gong hei fat choi) which translates as wishing you happiness and fortune.

HNY everyone!

like, swatch each pen? hmmm, worth a try!

oooh, thank you! I will play around with this.

Picking colors also feels challenging. In the past, I would color line art IRL with colored markers and I like how there is a limit to the colors you have available to choose from. I try to do the same in Procreate (only pick colors from a palette) but I haven’t found a palette that feels the same.
