Hey guys! I know I haven’t been posting much lately but it’s because of all the exciting things I’ve been working on! Including this little thing right here. This is my childhood come to life. For all you Sailor Moon fans out there... <3 It is a 1 inch, flip pin, inspired by Sailor Moon’s transformation locket. It flips open to reveal the inside design. I’ve been working for while on this now and I’m just really excited to finally have this out there!  $15 - Available on Etsy.  Buy now!

Gonna pepper my art stuff with my jewelry stuff.

Here’s some more pieces I made recently! What’s available is listed on Etsy.

Remember that thing I said about being inspired by Sailor Moon to start drawing? That applies here too. MOON POWER BITCHES.

Here’s the rejected cover for the Washington DC Visitor’s Guide. Not everyone was cool with the girl riding a panda :(

So I recently picked up a new hobby. I’ve been obsessed with crystal jewelry-- so what started out as making pieces for myself, turned into a small business that I really hope will take off! Here are some of the pieces I've made recently with more to come!You can find them at https://www.etsy.com/shop/pixiunyc -- I named my brand after the mythological Chinese creature known for warding off evil spirits. Crystals are also often regarded to have powers to protect and cleanse. I hope these pieces will find great homes and brighten your world!

Drew a Laputa soldier for a Ghibli zine! This is a color variant version since the actual piece is sort of limited due to silk screening process.

Here’s the full animated spot I worked on for StoryCorps & Google!

It was my first big 2D animation gig and I had a lot of fun! We achieved a lot in the short amount of time we were given and I think the watercolor effect we got was pretty cool. Thanks @kyletwebster!

Hey guys! Here’s a belated update for some of the backgrounds and chara designs I did for StoryCorps’ Great Thanksgiving Listen spot. You can watch the full video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UyhsTOWUYv0

Some stills from the Otto spot that I worked on at Psyop! 

I modeled the interior post office set, modeled and sculpted some hero props including the wrapped bike, did some minor texturing and lit a couple of these shots. It was a lot of fun and a huge learning experience!

I don’t do much 3D anymore but here is a project I worked on recently at Psyop NY! I was mainly a 3D modeler (modeled and set dressed the interior of the post office) and lighter, but also textured a couple of hero props. I’ll post more stuff soon for this project!
