Gemini & Moving
I’m done moving in the sense that (more or less) all my things are in the new house. I’m still unpacking and that’s going to take for-fucking-ever because I am just so tired of it all. I wish my things would just magically go where I want them. This is my second move in less…

Seeing Stars
What a year this has been. I don’t even want to talk about it. I’m ending on an exciting note– I am making my way to the mountains on my very own four acres in rural Colorado, where I can see the Milky Way at night– but I think everything else should just be left…

Personal Growth
I was really hesitant about giving this style a try, as I am not very good at inking (digital or otherwise) to begin with. But I’m pretty pleased with the end result and will definitely be developing this style further. This is the kind of thing I had in mind for multiple drawings in this…
