Hi everyone! Here is the realtime process video for my latest painting "Golden". I will have a Youtube video coming out soon about what I've been up to, but I would love to film a more in-depth video for you guys, so feel free to leave me any questions you have!
Hi everyone! Here is my latest Youtube video that will be out shortly. It's the process of this Patreon postcard, and I wanted to talk a little bit about how my updated painting process includes only one brush. I just realized this the other day!
Let me know your thoughts and how many brushes you use when you paint!

Hi hi! Here's my next Youtube video coming up. It took me over a month and a half to finish but I love the outcome. I wish that more of it was thrifted, but bedroom furniture is hard to find when thrifting, as well as hard to transport due to size, so buying online has been the simpler option. My studio makeover should have some more DIY and thrifted elements to it, and I'm excited to make a dedicated filming space in it!

Hi! Here's the timelapse for my May Patreon Postcard; the June and July designs will be posted super soon. Hope you enjoy seeing this process as it's much different than what I usually work like.

Hi everyone! Here is my latest Patreon postcard for May. I've been slowly getting back into painting fuller pieces in Photoshop instead of Procreate, and I've been enjoying it a lot after having a break from serious digital painting. I want to continue experimenting with styles and colors, and I love the dreamy and sketchy look of this piece.
I've also been brainstorming what paintings I want to create for my book; the manuscript is due at the end of July, and the book is going to...

Hi everyone! Here is early access to my new video about my experience with going to a liberal arts college for my design major. Let me know if you have any thoughts or questions; this video is a very long one. I've been slowly building up more and more feelings about my education in the four years I went to school, and I am so so happy to have graduated and to be done.
Thank you for supporting me along the way; I'm so excited to be back into the groove of being a fulltime freelancer! 2021-06-11 19:38:20 +0000 UTC View Post
Hi everyone! Here's what I'm currently working on; it's going to be a new print for my shop and also my next Youtube video timelapse. I'm going to be talking about my experience with going to a liberal arts college, so if you have any questions you'd like me to talk about, comment down below. I would love to know what you'd like me to talk about, and I have a lot of thoughts to share about my experience.
Hiii! I'm changing the tiers around today-- make sure to select the tier you'd like to be moved into since I can't personally move you!
Thank you for your support :-)
Hi everyone! Here is my latest video coming out; I wanted to talk about some of the struggles I had growing up and with mental health, and how I've progressed and reconciled with it. Thank you for all the support and listening to my story! I'm excited to continue growing my platform with honesty about mental health and the person that I truly am, and I hope this encourages you to also seek out happiness and peach if you're not encouraged to do so elsewhere.
2021-05-19 16:45:57 +0000 UTC View PostHi hi hi!
So starting in June, I'm going to be changing up tiers a tiny bit;
I'm going to switch the $1 to $2, $5 and $10 will be merged into shared rewards for $7, and my sticker tier will go down from $20 to $16!!
So new tiers:
$2- base
$7- videos and process work
$12- postcard
$16- stickers
$50- original sketch
(higher tiers will, of course, still include the lower tier rewards as they do currently!) 2021-05-16 00:08:07 +0000 UTC View Post
Hi hi! I wanted to check in with you on some fun major things happening recently! First off, this is April's postcard design. I'm finishing up some matching sticker designs and packaging everything up this weekend. This should hypothetically be the last month that I don't have rewards out a day or two after all payments are processed, and that's because ... *drumroll* I just graduated!! I have one online class that I'm still working on, but it ends tomorrow, and after that, I'm freeeeeeeeee!&...

Hi everyone! Here is the Procreate timelapse of April's postcard; it's a little sketchier than I usually go for, but I still think it's cute enough. Let me know your thoughts. Matching stickers coming soon.

Hiiiii! Here is an early release of my latest video; I edited this in Final Cut Pro instead of Premiere Pro, and I looooove it so much more. I'm very excited to get into better video editing and consistent posting. Let me know what suggestions or ideas you have for future video topics.
I want to post some fun type of videos as well (like trying out art TikTok hacks or bedroom and studio makeover now that my roommate is moving out in a week or two). Thank you for all the support! H...

Hi everyone! I've been staying busy at my internship this month (working full time for no moolah) so I've been burned out creatively on this final stretch. I've been slowly chipping away at some landscaping as the weather is perfect for being outside has been changing. I hate humid summers, so I've been trying to get ahead on outdoor projects while temperatures are moderate. I've planted some apricot tea roses and white gardenias in front of my house, and this week I've been pruning my crepe ...

Hi hi! Here is a sneak peek at my latest video on how I redesigned my website with Wix. If you have any questions about the process or creating a website, let me know. I'm planning on making another video with some more tips!
hiiii! I wanted to give you all early access to my latest video. I wanted to talk to about some of the stuff that's been on my mind and that I've been learning. I've been going to counseling since January, and revisiting and processing a lot of my trauma has been taking a toll on me.
I wanted to paint a self portrait that reflected this period of my life, and something that was based on the artistic process and less on the final outcome. I love the end result, and I hope this vide...

Hi! Here's the real time process for my February postcard! Hopefully you enjoy seeing some of the trial and error of this piece.

Wow; February came and went for me. I can't believe I haven't posted anything this past month-- trying to amend as much as possible right before midnight hits hahaha!
Firstly, I wanted to upload a small PDF of what I've been working on this month. I haven't been sketching at all, and haven't had time for personal art since I've been slammed with my internship, practicum, community service, and school. I can show you the small projects I've worked on for work; my internship ...

Hey everyone! Hope you're doing well since I last checked in.
I know the new year doesn't mean the dumpster fire we're currently experiencing is over, but I've personally made a couple of changes to my life (not New Year's resolutions, but goals I set mid-December) that I wanted to share with you.
Don't purchase any clothing for six months
I love finding fun clothes, especially online thrifting, which is a really bad habit when you have a close...

Hey everyone!
Here's January's postcard design. I wanted to paint something a little different than my usual, so I opted for a Renaissance-inspired girl with hellebores in her hair. Let me know your thoughts! This was definitely a long one. I wanted to make sure that all the details and brushstrokes were well painted!
Hey everyone!
How were your holidays this year? I definitely took a bit of a break for Christmas and New Year's, but I am baaackk!
I spent the holidays with my boyfriend (his birthday is New Year's Eve) and we had such a nice relaxing time together. Right before Christmas, my car broke down, and after towing to my dealership for a diagnostic, they told me that the transmission and front axle needed to be immediately changed, among other things. The immediate fixes I needed t...

Hey everyone!
Here's the process for my latest digital painting "Midnight". I've been having a blast working seriously on digital paintings again, and I definitely want to hear your opinions. I'd love to work on a new step-by-step tutorial/process for you. Is there any topic you'd like me to discuss?
Hope you're doing well, and happy new year!

Hi! Here's the real-time process for my painting of Elsa from Frozen. Usually, I focus on painting the face, and then rush through the hair, clothing, and environment, but I really wanted to focus on creating a cohesive painting. I took my time working on all the elements, taking breaks and forcing myself to make sure all the details were as clean and polished as I wanted them to be. Finally, I added some filters over the image to make it more dreamy: kind of like an 80s glowy photo. 2020-12-14 23:19:04 +0000 UTC View Post
Hiiii! I'm so proud of December's Patreon postcard! Look how cute and dreamy! I'm not sure whether to make this available as a print as well, but I cannot wait to make the matching stickers for this month. I wanted to paint a wintery lady, but it ended up looking a lil bit like Elsa, so we're going with it! New Youtube video coming this next week, and I'm going to put together the Patreon exclusive real-time process video for this piece.
I'm getting busy shipping out all of November's r...

2020-12-02 02:58:56 +0000 UTC View PostHello! I wanted to jump in and share some of the thoughts I've been having about my art style, the direction I want my art to go in, and what I've been thinking about in relation to growing my business and brand.
As an artist who loves experimenting with different media, I love working with both traditional and digital media. Learning gouache, watercolors, oil paints, acrylics, charcoal, graphite, and digital (in Photoshop, Krita, and Procreate) is so fun for me. I love switching up wha...

Hi! Here is my very first step by step tutorial in this format! I definitely would love to make more of these for you guys, since these really helped me out when I was learning digital painting techniques. Let me know if you have any requests for my next tutorial; let's aim for one every two weeks? Procreate, Photoshop, and Krita tutorials can all come your way!!
Hi!! Here is this month's postcard. I'm so sad that fall is basically over, but I can still paint with autumnal colors and daydream!! My fall and winter outfits are hands down my best, so I've been thriving getting dressed in the morning and taking cozy drives through nature.
I was also in the mood to make some cute, vintage-inspired sticker designs for this month. I know I said I would b...

Let me catch you up on what's been going on with me! I've been working on lots of my school job, as well as small home makeover things. This week, I'm going to be printing the three postcards I haven't sent out yet--- the only issue is I still haven't been able to design the 9 stickers to go with those!! I just feel stuck on my sticker ideas, and I hate printing and cutting with my Cricut.
Starting next month, I'm going to be sending out only one sticker instead o...
