Well, Pip is my cute little bb gnome sorcerer, and I love her. So, she is the cutest to me. I've spent a lot of time in this specific D&D campaign, so I'm attached to her. She's a little ...
The Cutest Gnome – Pip
The past 2 summers I've taken some whitewater kayak lessons on the Nantahala River. The first lesson was a 1-day class to get you acquainted with the boat and have some confidence to paddle down the ...

Back in February Leilani Joy was having a contest on Instagram to win an ACEO original and I knew I wanted to participate right away. The theme was pretty open, just design a valentine. I figured I ...
My Entry for Leilani Joy’s Valentine Contest
I love Klimt paintings. There's something about them that is particularly appealing to me. I find myself inspired by his painting pretty frequently, as is apparent by the front page of my ...
Klimt Inspired Watercolor Painting: Blue
I haven't seen the new Power Rangers movie yet. I feel like the reviews have been mixed. People who watched the old series generally liked it, but critics seem to hate it. I'm sort of the latter, but ...
Fanart Friday: Rita Repulsa from Power Rangers (OG)
You do know Inktober, don't you? Jake Parker started this drawing initiative that takes place in October. Basically, you make an ink drawing every day of the month. He has prompts, other people make ...

D&D Monster Art: Beholder
Yes, I know. I fell way behind on my posts. I would say I was distracted, and that might be true, but there's no good excuse. To be honest, I just get behind on scanning things in, and then the queue ...
Mini Watercolor Painting: Girls, Girls, & More Girls
I updated my Youtube with this Bulma drawing! I was pretty excited to get a Cintiq, so I tried it out with some Dragon Ball/DBZ fanart. This version of Bulma is from Dragon Ball, because I think she ...
Fanart Friday: Bulma from Dragon Ball
Stranger Things. It's pretty good, eh? I enjoyed it. I even started a second watch-through, even though I just binged it maybe two months ago. That's okay. I don't mind. Do you ever draw something ...
Fanart Friday: Stranger Things (Eleven)
It's Wednesday. You need a mid-week pick-me-up. Or perhaps something a little less cheery will make you feel ...
Marker Drawings: Mid-week Optimism
Squeak is special to me. She's my first real D&D character. She's a bit of a goody-goody. I've realized that she's actually a nicer person than I am. That's probably not a good thing. I wasn't ...
D&D Character Art: Squeak, the Gnome Cleric
My naming scheme has evolved into coming up with cutesy names for the ladies I draw. This should've always been an obvious way to name my art, but I've been having fun coming up with some of the ...
Marker Drawing: Pearl (not Steven Universe Fanart – Sorry! :( )
Say hello to a mega-80's fashion inspiration. It's too much, I know. 80's aesthetic is so bad, but so entertaining. I can't help but kind of love ...
Marker Illustration: Star
Time for some more bonus art on this lovely Saturday. Spoopy art. Not quite spooky, but sort of. I think that is an appropriate category for some of these ...
Super Saturday Art Bonanza: Bonus Marker Drawings: Spoopy Stuff (Some NSFW)
Name inspired by hippies. This was intended to just be a doodle, but ended up being a cute little drawing. I could edit out some of the doodles around her, but I kind of like that little face next ...

I doodled a derpy Sailor Moon in an old sketchbook and had been wanting to do a slightly better version of it. It's still derpy though. ...
Fanart Friday: Derpy Sailor Moon Marker Drawing
I've mentioned previously that I enjoy demon girls. Devil Girls. Horned girls of any sort. I draw them. I pin them. They're great. I'm pretty sure this drawing was inspired by a small sketch of a ...
Marker Drawing: She-Devil
This was a fun drawing. I wanted to do a variation on a drawing I had done previously (seen in this sketchbook video actually). The original drawing was from a random reference, primarily with ...
Mildly NSFW Marker Drawing: Crimson (No Nudity)
I think this image is another example of my scanner woes. When the skin tones scan in weird, I definitely have the most trouble fixing them. I call this a fashion illustration. I don't know if ...
Fashion Illustration: Diamond
My scanner seems to have an issue with reds/yellows. I have to spend quite a bit of time fiddling with the images in Photoshop, especially if they are very warm pictures. It's a bit frustrating, ...

Cyclops seem to be pretty popular right now. I'm sure that has a bit to do with Steven Universe, but I personally can't get the Cyclops from the made for tv version of The Odyssey out of my head. ...

Bat girls. Not Batgirl. Girls & bats, moreso. I liked coming up with the names for these 2 chickadees. Meet Laura (the one with cutesy pootsy wings) and Sia (she just likes to hang out with ...
Super Saturday Art Bonanza: Bonus Marker Drawings: Bat Girls of a sort
I had magical girls on my brain randomly, so I thought it would be fun to doodle one. The purple background definitely was an experiment, but it was fun to do also. Obviously, her name is Plum, ...
Marker Drawing: Magical Girl!
I have a fondness for octopi, squid, nautili, and the like. Yet, I don't draw them very often. They are all so cute. I should really do more drawings involving them. At the very least, more ...
Marker Drawing: Eight
Although this is really early in my sketchbook, I still really like the way she came out. She's pretty cute. My only drawback about it is that I ran out of gray mid-way through her shirt. I swear, I ...

I've been slacking on scanning in drawings from my sketchbook recently. I had some free time though, and finally went on a scanning spree! One of the first doodles in my most recent sketchbook (which ...
Marker Drawing: Vacant
Another day of feeling frustrated, another day of needing to express it via art. This was actually inspired by a picture in my sketchbook a while back where I had scribbled mindlessly where a ...
Watercolor Painting: Void
Sometimes when I'm feeling down, I have to paint or draw in a way that feels similar. Obviously, I was feeling frustrated/upset here. And somehow, this came out better than I could have ever ...
Watercolor Painting: Silence
Every time I look at this picture I think of Daniel Tosh saying "High Fashion". It's not particularly oddball high fashion, but I just can't get him out of my head. Also, another use of that gold ...
Fashion Illustration: HIGH FASHION
Sometimes I get the urge to just do something super simple and purely for the purpose of sketching out the fashion elements of something. I am definitely not a fashion designer or a fashion ...

I picked up this metallic gold Sharpie a while back, and I used the heck out of it. I've really enjoyed it. This was just one of my random doodles with it that I actually ended up ...
Golden Heart Doodle
I keep mixing my marker drawings with watercolor in some way. It's fun and I enjoy the softness of the watercolor backgrounds. This little girl has some great freckles. I actually think her faun ...

I've really been enjoying my copic markers. I'm collecting a few more here and there, trying to grow my collection. In the meantime, I've been using my Prismacolors for colors I don't have (but that ...
Marker Drawing: Dandelion
Sometimes you just have to paint how you are feeling. Or at least let your annoyances/sadness/emotions inspire your art. Sometimes jobs suck, especially when you feel under-appreciated. At least ...
Watercolor & Markers Illustration: Bound
I rarely do backgrounds. Especially in paintings. So I wanted to try to do SOMETHING for a background in this watercolor painting. I really liked the way the lineart came out. I thought she was ...
Watercolor Painting: Harp
I've been hesitant to use gouache because I don't know how to use it and every time I mess with it, I hate it. I'd heard that it was something like watercolor and something like acrylic. So at first, ...
Experimenting with Gouache: What Not To Do
Have you been watching Daredevil on Nextflix? It's amazing. I was hesitant to watch it because of how bad the movie was (I'm looking at you, Ben Affleck). I was looking for something interesting to ...
Fanart Friday: The Punisher
I've really enjoyed using a mixed media sketchbook. It's helped me learn to color and pushed me to make more finished art in general. I also really enjoy some simple, abstract style backgrounds. They ...

Dungeons & Dragons OC Art: Y’vee Galanadel
I'm pretty proud of this picture. It's one of my favorite paintings to date. It's simple, but it came out pretty much how I had envisioned it. It was also super, duper ...
Watercolor Painting: Poppy Tears
A byproduct of binge watching Sailor moon is ultimately drawing fanart from it. Usagi plants herself in your brain, and you think about her transformations and her love for Mamoru and little chibi ...
Fanart Friday: Sailor Moon Marker Drawing
I've been trying to work my way through all episodes of Sailor Moon. It's taken a while, because the series follows it's formula so closely that it is difficult to really binge watch them (although i ...
Marker Drawing: Lady Jean
Game of Thrones is frequently on my mind. Before this most recent season started, I'd been thinking about Bran and what will be going on in his story. So, naturally, a 3-eyed crow appeared. Of ...
Pencil Drawing: Corvus
I was so excited for this picture. They style is odd, but I loved coloring it. It was so much fun to do. I really need to do more backgrounds. It's a ton of fun, but sometimes I think I don't have ...
Marker Drawing: Too Hip Colored
This started out as a simple mindless doodle and then ended up consuming more time than I had ever thought it would. This didn't take a long time to do, it's just that it definitely started its life ...

I've really been experimenting with Copic Markers since getting a couple of them at Christmas. I still like my Prismacolor markers and use them for the bulk of colors, since I only have a few Copics, ...
Marker Drawing: Coral
I'm pretty sure I've mentioned before that I have a tendency to draw mermaids more as an adult than as a child or teen. If you crawl through the mermaid tag, you'll see that this tends to be true ...
NSFW: Another Marker Drawing: A Mermaid
I think this style is pretty different for me, but I did like it. What was most fun about this drawing was that it was an opportunity to work on backgrounds. I have a tendency to do more simplistic, ...
Too Hip Lineart
There's something about this picture. I actually really like it. It's so rare that I feel this way. The stars have to align correctly on the 5th Sunday of an even numbered month in a leap year. In ...
Marker Drawings Galore: MORE FRECKLES
I've been surprised how much I enjoy doing variations of mermaids. I always liked mermaids as a child, but I don't think I drew them nearly as often as I do as an adult. Another doodle from my ...

Amidst my Copic Marker experiments, I discovered that freckles are wonderful. I'd never thought to include freckles in a drawing, mostly because my art has always been so simple that it wouldn't have ...
Marker Drawing: Freckles
Again, this is another drawing where I was just having fun with the flow of the lines and trying to play around with that. I actually like they style a bit here. It's different from my norm, but ...

Grimmie has been my online identity for probably the last 10 years, when I first started playing Final Fantasy XI. I originally made an Elvaan, but succumbed to the allure of the Tarutaru and made a ...

I've been pretty excited for the small amount of copic markers that I have. I like the color range that I've ended up with so far. They are all so soft and delicate. While playing around with them, ...

I was going through a small phase, very briefly, where I was really enjoying drawing people without irises. I do like the way it looks. I was also having fun with the looseness of ...
