What to expect this month:

For all members:

As always, the shop promo codes have been updated and can be found here!
A new illustration will go up sometime within the next two weeks (I don't have a sketch preview ready just yet this time - sorry!! The beginning of the year is always so busy!)

For Harvest tier members:

A new wallpaper set and coloring sheet will be available soon after the illustration is posted!
I'll be uploading a peek at some inked pages for my upcoming graphic novel "The Netherling" now that I've got the ball rolling on that!

What I've been up to!

I noted last month that I would be away on a trip - I visited Tokyo to see some friends, and it was a really, really wonderful experience. It was actually my first time leaving the USA, and my first time buying plane tickets, so I was stressed to say the least haha!!! I'm very grateful to have made it there and back safely. Once I have a little more time to sort through my photos (and anonymize faces) I'll upload a pack that can be freely used as reference, edited for backgrounds, etc to the Harvest tier, likely next month!

For anyone who's been interested in my film photos, I also wound up taking a little novelty camera with me - I tried out the Ektar H35N, which is a very casual half-frame camera. Basically, it takes pictures vertically along the film, allowing twice as many photos! The quality is a bit grainier, and the result reminds me of a disposable camera (I mean this in a good way), but it's a nice budget-friendly way to take quick, casual pictures. I uploaded some of those to the gallery above!

Also of note: the gummy bear pattern I made a while back has been turned into button up shirts in collaboration with Maya Kern, so if you like candy, button ups, and standing out, you can check that out here! Like the rest of her shop, these are made using certified ethical labor sources and come in a wide variety of sizes. Here are some pics from Maya!:
