Manga girls and cute cats, I made this artwork back in 2023. Markers on paper.

Watercolour and the tiniest bit of coloured pencil and acrylic marker on watercolour paper. Size A4. Done with negative painting technique. This was inspired by a figure found in a Kinder egg from my daughter. It seems to be common sense these days to scan and fix your artwork digitally before posting it on any social media. I don't do that. I kind of like the little (or bigger) imperfections in my work, and I also believe that uploading traditional work that has been digitally fixed gives people the idea that such perfect pictures can be achieved in a traditional way.

I got new oil painting brushes for procreate! They are by Sadie Lew. Much better than the default brushes on procreate!

The vibrant, verdant jungle of Panama is what inspired this latest piece. Posca acrylic paint markers on custom 3" x 2.75" tiny frog-shaped canvas.

My very first comission by the super talented JonnyDoodles, everyone go and show him some love over on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/jonnydoodles) where he streams his work and in all other platforms!

This was something that was requested from my close friend. I've been meaning to post it but life has kept me busy.

I would like to not care about the pain, allow it to pass and let it flow without fighting it, which is perhaps the only way to let it go. Then I will understand that if I give myself trust, I will be able to remember and I will feel in my heart how many lights I found every time I felt lost.
