2025 almost over and done!

Fortunate enough to be super busy with work, but resulted in less time to make personal art. Gonna have to correct that :)

See you on the other side!

My contribution to Xenoblade 3 fan zine 'MEET'. Double fan art piece that also pays homage to Gustav Klimt's 'The Kiss'.

The word 'zine' almost feels disrespectful; the final result's a beautiful book with excellent printing quality ❤️

Finished Link’s Awakening for the first time this weekend. Sadly already knew where the story was headed so that didn’t leave as much impact as I hoped, but still enjoyed my time with it! Love the art style so much ❤️

Undertale was recommended by friends. LOVE the way it kept surprising me, made me laugh, be afraid of a character and then grow to love them. Played it, played it again. Couldn't finish it a third time because I was too devastated by my own actions.

Still think about it often. Thank you <3
