I hope you enjoy the new look of our monthly sketches!! ✨
Making these sketch requests each month in my sketchbook has been a lot of fun -- but I wasn't too satisfied with how the previous months' pages turned out. I think adding some rough color and a bit more polish to the ink drawings makes them look a little nicer...

I also wanted to share a little bit more of my comic-making process with you, so this week's BTS is about how I format the pages into a vertical layout for Webtoon ✨ Let me know if there's anything specific you'd like me to share about the process in the future; I am...

The internet wasn't around when Alex and Marcie were growing up, so they've had to think of some more creative ways to teach themselves how to play their instruments 👀✨
This is the first of a 3-part comic I had in mind! It's also a continuation of one of our OC-tober posts last month: 2021-11-14 17:47:34 +0000 UTC

Some less than stellar tattoo ideas for Alex's arm :,)
This comic probably isn't going to be canon, but before they started dating, Alex would definitely be so eager to please Jon that he'd get a random tattoo for him lakjdkdj

Hi-res uploads of this week's Insta posts! 🥰
I couldn't really land on a good image to redraw for today's OC-tober prompt, so I sifted through some old sketchbooks to find inspiration. One page from 2019 had these marker doodles of Alex and Bee that I really wanted to try again -- I'm happy to say my second attempt t...

More OC-tober illustrations!
I don't think I've made it public yet, so this will just be a special insight for you Patrons: the webcomic we're following now on Webtoon is just Part 1 of Jon and Alex's story. That comic is mainly about them first becoming a couple, and there are going to be a lot of loose end...
