SPRING HAS SPRUNG~

Everything is coming back to life during this spring season. Including myself. This month's theme is "Meeting after Metamorphosis." The drawing for the postcard was inspired by this concept: the rough battle of growth and hibernation has come to the close for the time being, and at the end comes the i...

FEB REWARDS :) (+ december pins update)

Hello my lil cuties~

I hope your year has been off to a lovely start so far. I have had time to recharge and get my creative juices flowing again. This month's theme is "ZOOMIN' INTO 2023 LIKE IT'S MY YEAR". I decided to center February loosely around lunar new year, which was a couple of weeks ago in late January. I wa...

YOU WILL NOT BE BILLED FOR JANUARY 2023

Hello lovelies~
I hope your last few hours of 2022 are filled with lots of love and happiness. 

As you guys have probably noticed, art has been quite hard for me lately. I still have not been able to complete a rewards collection for December. Instead of trying to force out a piece that I'm not happy with for t...

november rewards~*

Hello beautiful peeps of the internet!

This month's theme is centered around "self care". Little things that I have been trying to implement in my own life, such as a nice long bath, finding new music, and cooking. I had the best time drawing the rewards for this month. I truly am so happy with how everything t...

OCTOBER REWARDS (finally!!!)

It's finally here :D

Thank you SO SO much for all of your patience. My art block has been absolutely horrible. I think I tried to draw, not even kidding, like 10 different illustrations and ended up hating all of them?? BUT I finally hit a break through last night and drew until the early hours of the morning. Hope you ...

WHERE I'VE BEEN :o

Hello lovlies~

I'm so sorry this update has been so late. Last time we talked, I mentioned that I possibly had to get knee surgery. The end of September and most of October was spent going in and out of many, many doctor offices. It took awhile to figure out exactly what was wrong with my knee and what was the best cour...

september rewards 🥀 (+ an update on me & knee surgery)

hello lovlies~

This month's rewards theme is "To Buy or Not to Buy? - that is the question". To remind us all that the best things in life, the things that we yearn for the most, cannot be bought. No matter how much we consume, the thrill is always temporary and we're left feeling empty. Growth...

"Socially Drained" progress pics

A little step-by-step progress picture collection for you all, featuring my latest illustration.

♡ august rewards ♡

Happy august my lovelies~ 

I have been quite the busy bee behind the scenes in the last month. I've been drawing a lot, but not posting it anywhere. As I still feel like I have to mentally heal before I can fully come back to the internet. The month's theme of "Low Social Battery" really reflects that. The...

✦ JULY REWARDS ✦

Hello bbs~

It's been quite a long time. I have been struggling a lot with my mental health, mostly my anxiety and panic attacks.

doodle dump :D

Some things that I have been drawing to try to get over my art block. I don't particularly like them all that much, but I think all art serves a purpose. Even the ones that you feel aren't good enough! At least that's what I'm trying to tell myself hehe. 

I hope you all enjoy these. A small token of my appreciation...
