Happy New Year with the first post of the year. Do you have any goals you would like to achieve for this year?
I tend to have a very bad case of imposter syndrome or a fear of failure when it comes to my art. For years it has stopped me from creating the works I want to create or going to certain companies to work for them. This year I plan on getting those jobs or creating that story. As well as, not feeling like everything I post online has to be some finished piece. That it can be a silly looking image like this.

2020 goals:
-Hit 1k followers on Instagram -Hit 100 followers on Twitter -Sell my work and do commissions -Create my webcomic series
-study 3D or 2D gaming for this story that is too short to turn into a comic

These are my goals for now, but I do plan on adding to that list.

My #topnine of 2019.
How was your 2019? Sorry for the lack of updates towards the end of the year. Had to take on a seasonal job for the holidays.
My 2019 had its ups and downs. The downs being the death of two teachers that I really liked and the moments of feeling like my art is going nowhere. But the best parts have been seeing people like the creation of Pip the Catcus and the mini feature of my crow-tit painting on Liquitex’s social media pages.

For once, I feel hopeful for the new year. I plan on creating more comics. I’m going to be working on this one story that I’ve had on the back burner for at least 7 years. The main reason for the seasonal job, is so I can pay for an editor.

Thank you all for sticking around, especially during my inactivity periods!Here’s to a great 2020!

A little break from the cute. Struggled to draw this in a timely manner due to a cold and feeling down to losing two people I knew around the same time.

I recently got news on November 19, that my professor, Tom Lyle, passed away. For the majority of everything that I’ve learned when it came to creating comics is thanks to him. Tom helped me to realize my own potential when it came to art and making comics. He made me work hard on things I struggled with the most, like perspective with backgrounds. (I still struggle, but not as badly as I did in his classes.) I have lots of fond memories taking his classes. Tom wasn’t a big fan of the anime/manga style (the type with the big eyes and simplified features), but it always made me feel happy inside that he liked my style. My style is influenced by anime with some western comic qualities. You will be missed Tom.

I wish I got the chance to get into a mainstream comic series or created my own series to show him. So he can see how far I’ve came as an artist.
Tom helped with the creation of the Scarlet Spider, so I got them swinging along together. (Thanks to my friend @twinkletaters for giving my some advice on the drawing)

I need your help with votes. You can vote once a day for my design. Voting ends October 23. If you want to, you can repost the image to spread the word for me.

I’ve entered a design contest on Fan Factory Art with Hot Topic. The topic being the original Archie and Sabrina from the comics. The Archie comics has been a part of my life ever since I was a child. From the comics to the cartoons and now the live action shows. I love the series very much.

The winners and runner-ups get the chance to have their design on shirts sold in Hot Topic. As well as, monetary winnings. I’ve always wanted to see something that I’ve created being sold in stores or online. (But the right way, not through theft)

If you can vote, I would like to say thank you for taking the time out to do such!

I want to say thank you to everyone that commented and liked my post with Pip the Catcus. It makes me happy to see that there were a lot of people that liked/loved the lil’ guy. I never imagined that I would have created something that people would like to see as a pin or a plushie.

I do plan on making more comics with him and possibly other hybrid (most likely) cat creatures. Thanks again for all of the support!
