Even though EarthBound/Mother didn't win the poll, I wanted to make one for fun! I've included two versions - one with a sort of vintage, papery texture overlaid, and a cleaner one without any texture.

Cardcaptor Sakura won the poll, so this month's phone wallpaper features Kero and Spinel! It's been made with a little extra space at the top and on the sides, so it can be zoomed in or dragged to fit most phone screens.

Lots of pink this time! I also tried messing around more with the leaf drawing, but I'm not sure I'm coming up with anything good, so I might just set it down for now.
Also, Cardcaptor Sakura won the phone wallpaper poll, so I included a preview here!

This one was a little different from my usual way of working because I wanted to try experimenting with new methods! I also want to talk about this one specifically since it touches a subject that a lot of people avoid at all costs: tracing.
With tracing, the big, unshakeable rule is to nev...
2021-08-04 21:34:16 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the poll for this month's phone wallpaper! Like last month, I might end up drawing more than just the winner, but the winner is the only one that's guaranteed.

This one is from all the way back in 2015! Even though it looks nothing like my current art, and even though I retired it as a print a long time ago, I still sometimes have people asking about it, so I want to make it available here.
The above images are previews - the downloadable jpeg and...

I feel like the more I do these the more I want to try making prints and comics like this? I've felt stagnant for a long time, but I've been getting really excited about the potential of art again recently, especially about the potential of imperfections. I've always really liked looking at art t...

Kind of a light (and rough) update this time since I'm resting my wrist!
I'm still trying to force myself to do quick backgrounds somewhat regularly, especially since I'm trying really hard to nail down concepts for something. I always spend too much time on backgrounds (especially ones wit...

I've been wanting to draw a Nana print for a while, so I'm so glad I was able to put aside some time for this! I actually still haven't seen much of the anime (I only tried watching it after reading the manga), but when I was a teen I listened to the music a lot, and it was really nostalgic to li...

This one is really red!
I've been re-reading Delicious in Dungeon recently, and I love how solid and tangible the art feels, and just how good the artist is at different faces and body types. It makes me want to get back into figure drawing when I get the chance.
I'm also finally draw...

The biggest change comes to phone wallpapers - originally, these were mostly going to be crops of existing work that only happen...

This one is from last year, but it's still a favorite of mine, so I want to talk about it a little!

Things have gotten a little busy over here, but I'm still trying to make room for sketching!

I drew a little Ichigo for fun, but any time I draw her I have to draw the others, so now I'm planning to turn them all into a cute phone wallpaper set! Maybe they could also be mini prints?

Did a little more traditional sketching this week!
