Anxious & socially awkward artist in the Chicago burbs. I love working with gouache, watercolor, marker, colored pencil, and digital.
Anyone else fully ready for spring?

Instagram is Instagramming and not showing my art to anyone... Yay. 🙃

They couldn’t even wait for the clown car to arrive before giving him credit. 🙄

Foreign (non-US) companies, take note. Don't come to the US. Don't bring in any new jobs. Don't provide any services for US citizens. If you become too successful here, our authoritarian regime is going to demand that you sell so they can have the power to control you "for national security".

I saved this on TikTok right before it went dark. Now I’m bringing it to Bluesky ❤️

I know 'I See Fire' has been done a billion times by different artists, but this Vinny Marchi and Bobby Bass rendition has to be my favorite.

Now that TikTok is banned and I can no longer decompress by watching videos curated from a halfway decent algorithm, I feel the urge to spend more of my time on social media. Sorry to my current 6 followers - shit is about to get weird.

Day 14 of #birbfest2025 brings us the beauty of the Barn Owl! 🦉 I had such fun capturing the ethereal quality of these silent hunters in watercolor.

Today I realized that there are two too many opportunities to mistype “African Pygmy Duck” in a way that makes the name sound very inappropriate.

More lineart for #birbfest2025! I didn’t have the energy to paint today so I figured I’d catch up on some of the sketches and line art. I finished the penguin a few days ago but never got around to posting. I’m trying to be more consistent though, I promise! Which one should I paint first? #art
