It's hard finding time to draw on location with 2 kids, so I took a few ref pics while visiting the Jersey Shore and then drew them later with the new acrylic markers I got for my birthday.

Here are a few scenes from my July. It's been so nice visiting home, and even more so, sketching it. 😊

Dinosaur familiar

Our dog went missing yesterday.

30 min later, Karl finds our dog at our neighbor's house snuggling on their couch. Meanwhile, I ran around the block frantically searching for him while hacking a lung.

Of course, Newton is now lying on our couch as if nothing happened.
LOL thanks Ju Li. The things we do for tiny humans... 😂
Thanks so much Neil! Your art is amazing, so I'm touched to read your kind words.

Haha, water slides are an experience for sure! 😂

Riding the waterslide at the Hilton paradise pool. My ghost left my body as we rode the slide in complete darkness.

We've been meaning to visit Leoda's pie shop since last time we were in Maui a few years ago, so we were happy to finally check it out. Their banana cream pie (as well as their avocado cucumber sammie) was SO good. Highly recommend!
#Artober2025 Day 9:
New page, new set of blobs. Color palette inspired by Hawaii since we're in Maui. Guest artist collab w/ @scionk.bsky.social who painted the watercolor blobs.

This one is a loose interpretation of a flame angelfish. Their real life silhouette is smaller, tho.
#Artober2025 Day 6-8:
Playing catch-up as I was busy prepping and then traveling for vacation.

- Kuya ( big brother) requested I draw the baby so I did.

- A blobfish which is appropriate for #blobtober

- A nene bird w/ a hairdo

Hey all, my husband @kevinonthelam.bsky.social found out that he’s going to be laid off next month. 🥺He’s a Staff Character Animator who has been working on The Outer Worlds 2. We’d greatly appreciate any leads that you have, because times are expensive and we have two little boys. 🙏 Thank you!
Aww, thanks Jenny!! ❤️
