Here's my #artvsartist2024 collection!

These are some of the pieces I enjoyed making the most this year. I'm still relatively new on Bluesky, But I'm really enjoying the vibe this platform has.

Here’s to the upcoming year, hopefully full of creativity! ✨🌱🎨

#peachtober DAY 15: AQUARIUM!

Halfway there! I can't believe I've been drawing this much. I definitely went all out on this one. I love drawing fish ❤️

#peachtober DAY 14: BRUSH!

I thought this one was going to be easy, but I still struggled a lot with this prompt. This one is loosely based on the covers of the manga Blue Period. Can you tell I like sparkles? ✨

#peachtober DAY 13: MARBLE!

Marbles were such a big part of my childhood during the 90's. I collected so many of them that all came in beautiful colors. Do kids still play with marbles these days?

#peachtober DAY 9: ROPE! Not gonna lie, had a reaaaally hard time with this one.

The prompt made me think of having a tug-of-war with a cute dog.

#peachtober DAY 8: LEAF!

When reading this prompt my mind immediately went to the four leaf clover. Let's hope we all get the luck we need for the rest of this year~

#peachtober DAY 7: Strawberry! Can't believe the first week is already done~

This has been a good exercise in getting creative with a limited color scheme and playing around with layers!

DAY 6: RING! for the #peachtober challenge on Instagram.

I unfortunately didn't have enough time to really go into this one due to a lot of freelance work. Tried a more cartoon-ish drawing this time!

DAY 4 of the #Peachtober challenge over on Instagram!

I'm feeling more and more inspired by drawing these prompts on a daily basis, especially since I'm drawing things quite out of my comfort zone. Today is Gingham!

DAY 3 of Peachtober on Instagram!! This one was so much fun to make!!!

I love slugs. They often crawl around in the forest close to my home after a long rainy day. Love picking them up too 😆

First day of peachtober on Instagram! I've been struggling with perfectionism again and this seemed like a good opportunity to challenge myself. Hopefully I can do all days of the month!

unfortunately due to life being busy and nerve pain, I've had to postpone drawing and posting for a while. It sucks, but thankfully it's a lot better these days. I'm hoping to get back into daily drawing again!

I have this insufferable itch to completely revamp my online store, since it's so outdated. Just gotta find myself some 80 hours of free time to build it lmao #ramblings
