She Doesn’t Even Like Me

I got really into hand-coloring lithographs this semester as I learned about them in my Art of the American West class! The look it creates is totally incomparable.

Venus, Planet of Love

“Why does the bigger painting not simply eat the smaller ones?” This was a super fun piece comprised of some abstract hour paintings I did for class and a screenprinting transparency!

“It Feels Good”

My latest lithograph, playing off some dreamy Greek mythology imagery! You bet they're going to be spending some time in the underworld.

She Doesn’t Even Like Me

“Black, black is love’s potion, we drink, we drink from its well, and in their name, let’s drink to true love, for a toad and a scorpion fell...” 🦂I am so bananas proud of this lithograph, this has to be one of my favorite illustrations of all time.

My first proper experiment with Posca paint pens and boy howdy am I hooked!!! Rendering this space babe was an absolute blast!

Just a... sad ghost/statue girl??? I mixed colored pencil and marker for this one and that was pretty fun!
