Oh my goodness I have so much backlog- wowowow! Time for me to start scheduling. 🙂 I’m really excited and happy that I have a place to share art with you. Sorry for taking some time to post these– I’ve been finding myself slowly trying to juggle life around, and I think I’ve found a…

Art Log: just a sketch dump
I must admit, today’s post will be a little bit more of an art dump and less about words. The reason being is that these were all pieces that had no wondrous thought process to them nor meticulous documentation. They were items that I wanted to draw simply because I wanted to feel alive through…
Living up to expectations
It’s been a minute since I’ve updated, so above is the masterpiece I’ve created in the meantime. Beautiful, isn’t it? Ok on the real, I’ve been having this weird looming feeling of needing to make beautiful blog posts, but words have been failing me. I want everything wonderful, and when things fall short I get…
Colour study: Colour theory practices
Recently I got book that has pages and pages of beautiful colour combinations. The purpose of this book was to display beautiful colour palettes that were unconventional back in early Showa period in Japan. A lot of these colours fit those gorgeous kimonos like so: But I’ve been really busy, and instead of design…
Copic Sketch Marker Colour Chart
Let me jump straight into the meat of this post and give you the copic sketch marker colours that I currently have: I recently bought a few more, so I think this chart will change in the future. I’ll update in the future again later! I’ve been really lazy with swatching since I had the…
Is photoshopping traditional pieces cheating?

how to draw an ow- I mean how to copic
Okay please bare with me today. I actually like the extra more than the featured image, but I’m going to blame it on the fact that I was distracted during the final crucial moments and not at all that I shouldn’t have been lazy at the end. To entice you to keep reading, I will…
Applying washi tape to copic markers
A lot of artists I admire on Instagram have this beautiful idea of using washi tape in their piece. I’m not quite sure how they were doing it, but I wanted to try tackling it. I originally drew this piece for Sleepy Mia‘s Magical Girl Challenge, but I missed the deadline. So I changed the…
Continuation of uncomfortable worlds
I DID IT. FAM. I have created a piece with the Gansai Tambi that I actually like! This was Torianne’s #DrawThisInYourStyle challenge piece that I wanted to try. I stumbled across Tori when I was on Twitch one day, and I fell in love with her deliberate line weight and love for traditional mediums. Before…
Hello Beginnings
To be honest, I am not good with words. I’m not sure at what point I had decided to give up on trying to phrase my thoughts articulately, but one day I decided that pictures, sounds, and gesturing depicted what I felt much better than anything I could possible try to say or write. And…
