So I wanted to post an update before I get overwhelmed with my schedule again. I thought to put aside religiously updating Patreon if ya'll don't rely on reading it so much. I had to take a break from streaming too since it's too much working 2 separate intense jobs, weight lifting, singing, havi...

New artwork! This is an illustration project I took on to expand my character art portfolio. I would really like to be illustrating book covers or MTG cards. I hope you see how title & author credits could fit at the top or bottom of this illustration.

I am persuing tattooing as a side career. I discovered this is something that makes sense and is a natural trajectory in my work. Why?

So here are a few more drawings from the session. I got a lot of drawings out of this one. Sometimes I don't, sometimes they're so wonky or incomplete it's not even worth scanning.
There's nothing wrong with some of these, they're just kinda...as punchy as some of the more succes...
I saved these for a Valentine's Day appropriate post! I went to Dr. Sketchy a few times now and I have been enjoying it. This time, I went alone and got treated with this fetish model night. Artistically, I love drawing latex because of how form-fitting & shiny it is. I just love painting ref...

I'm pretty excited to post this artwork. I feel it's one of my best animal paintings so far, and it had quite a journey to get here. The idea comes from some stories I read or heard as a child based around magpies stealing shiny objects. They were this whimsical, where the birds in the story stol...

Another one of my goals when starting a Patreon was going to more figure drawing. Whether it's once a year or once a month, any amount is better & the cost of doing that has been prohibited. I made a collection of options for workshops around the city. By far, Dr. Sketchy is the most fun beca...

Since I'm not a big drinker and NYE in Montreal is usual a -20C night, I don't go out for it.

One of the things Montreal started doing for the pandemic was closing streets off to traffic and making them pedestrian shopping & dining zones. Plenty of main streets in different neighbourhoods did this. It meant restaurants could put their terrasses right into the street, shops could insta...
