New Abstract Pattern: Velvet and Vines

27/5/2020

I'm working on another floral pattern. :) This one's going to have red flowers with purple decorations on the petals and yellow pollen at the center.

After I drew the vines, I realized they would probably look great on clothing and decor by themselves if I turned them gold. So I saved the works in progress to put in my print-on-demand stores - both the gold version and the original green.

And of course, to the surprise of probably no one, a rainbow dapple and pride flag series followed.

If you want to wear this pattern on your clothes, or use it to add a touch of abstract gracefulness to your home, it's available on blankets, coffee mugs, dresses, iPhone cases and more in my Society6 store and my RedBubble store.

Here's what it looks like on some of the available items:

Here are the links to the items in the collage:

Face masks
Wall Clocks
Throw Pillows
Comforters
T-shirts
Towels
iPhone Cases and Skins
Backpacks

Snowflake-Drawing Montage: Silver Forest Flakes

15/5/2020

I thought silver snowflakes on a dark green background would look elegant, so I decided to try it.

You can see the drawing process in this video, set to peaceful music:

Page 53 of My "Undertale" Comic, "Just Cause", is Ready!

Here's the latest chapter of Just Cause! You can read the comic from the beginning here.

When I first got to this part of the game, the first thing that flashed through my mind was the words, "Holy shit. She's about to go full yandere on me."

The original script actually had Frisk say that, but then I realized they probably wouldn't be familiar with the term "yandere", and it felt a bit out of character.

New Snowflake Patterns: Shining Skies, Woven Gold

26/4/2020

Ever have one of those days when you're trying to record a snowflake-drawing montage, and you don't realize until AFTER you've drawn the snowflakes that you'd accidentally changed the settings so it only recorded a tiny part of the screen?

Yup. That happened.

At least I got some nice designs out of it. I'll probably try this style again; using a smaller brush and thus thinner lines pushes me to experiment in different ways than I do when I'm using a larger brush that fills in more space between lines.

And, of course, I'll have to make sure that my recording software is properly configured next time.

For now, I hope you enjoy the snowflakes.

You can get this artwork on household decor, dresses, coffee mugs, iPhone cases, and more through my RedBubble and Society6 stores.

You can see all the RedBubble items here.

Society6 doesn't have a "view all products with this artwork" page, but if you visit this art print page and scroll down, you'll see a variety of available products.

Here are a few of the items you can get:

Snowflake-Drawing Montage: "Gilded Space Snowflake"

21/4/2020

I wanted to do a space-themed snowflake-drawing montage, and I ended up basing the color scheme on the Undertale AU "Outertale".

Due to having two colors on each snowflake, this ended up being the longest montage I've ever done.

I'm torn between the gilded and ungilded versions of the snowflakes - I like them both - so I decided to share all of them.

Snowflake-Drawing Montage: "Drifting Snowflake, Gentle Rain"

7/4/2020

I found some soft, sad, beautiful songs, and I wanted to make a snowflake-drawing montage that would fit with them. So I created a rainy, misty background, and used vivid but gentle shades of blue for this snowflake series.

I also added rain and thunder sounds to the video, to help complete the mood.

Frosted Sky: 12 Minutes of Drawing Snowflakes While Peaceful Music Plays

4/4/2020

My last snowflake-drawing video got such a positive reception on YouTube that I was motivated to make another. :) This time I made the background slightly more intricate, and included the process of drawing the gold decorations in the video.

Frozen Zephyr: 10 Minutes of Drawing Snowflakes While Peaceful, Dramatic Space Music Plays

28/3/2020

It's been some time since I did a snowflake-drawing montage, and I was getting the urge to do it again.

With COVID-19 forcing so many people into quarantine, I also felt a pull as an artist to offer those who are trapped in their homes a bit of escape and entertainment.

So if you want a relaxing way to pass the time, click the video player below to watch beautiful snowflakes taking shape while peaceful, dramatic space music plays.

Page 52 of My "Undertale" Comic, "Just Cause", is Ready!

21/3/2020

If you haven't read the previous pages, you can read the first 51 pages of Just Cause here.

Wow, it's been a while since I finished one of these! Floral pattern side projects with pride flag series versions will do that to a webcomic, haha.

Toriel actually does understand questions, of course; she's just trying to end this conversation before Frisk can get back onto the topic of going to the surface. Not the most effective way to sidetrack a kid, but it can be hard to think and suppress fear at the same time.
