The Golden Trio Some new sticker designs that I’m planning on selling next year at Fanime! I had a really great time meeting artists, new and old, at the alley and I really look forward to being back there. Anyway, have the Golden Trio for now while I figure out what to do over summer.

Obligatory Fanime Post

So, I’m not sure how many of my followers live in the Bay Area, but for those of you who do: My friend Ashley and I will be participating at Artist Alley in this year’s Fanime. We’ll be located at T31, so if you’re coming, please stop by~

Happy Earth Day!

I wasn’t planning on uploading these, but because it’s Earth Day, I thought “why not?” :) I drew these for a school project but I ended up scrapping these because I thought they made it look a little too busy.

Reference was used; I think I got it from fat-birds; so much cuteness. ;A;

Edit: Oh yeah, I forgot that they didn’t have backgrounds on these; excuse my messy attempt at getting rid of the white.

Hi everyone! Really sorry about my disappearance. Had a lot of homework to go through, and I don’t think it’s ending anytime soon. D: I decided to take a little break to work on this art trade for paulettejo. She asked for a drawing of herself. I hope she likes it! Her art is really nice, so be sure to check it out! I had to do a lot of experimentation with this though; it’s been a really long time since I’ve drawn a stylized person (as to one from observation), so I was questioning myself every time I put a pencil on paper. In the end, I went for a Disney-esque look. This was also the first time I used Copic markers and those were pretty interesting as well. c: Anyway, I talk a lot! ;A; Bah, back to doing homework.

A sneak peek at the new Adventure Time v.2 sticker designs! I probably won’t be finishing these anytime soon, but they will definitely be for sale at Fanime 2012, along with my previous AT designs, as well as various Studio Ghibli and Pokemon themed stickers! Oh yeah, did I mention: We finally got our table confirmations a couple weeks ago (last week? I don’t remember), so this means that Ashley and I will definitely be sharing a table at Fanime! If you guys are going to be attending, be sure to check out our table for some prints, stickers, as well as miscellaneous crafts. :) Table locations TBA at some later date, I suppose~
