"Things that I draw and paint."

I did it. @mskyerzz talked me into the #sailormoonredraw. Of course, in my brain, #sailormoon is a #demon #moonprincess. Swipe for process! >>>>>>>>> https://www.instagram.com/p/CAbdX40DAc_/?igshid=ocfrfrvp6gr1

I have a contract somewhere stating that I “must draw at least one #snake per year, or else.” This isn’t the first one this year, and it’s probably not the last. . . . #bigboss #mgs #metalgearsolid #kojima #hideokojima #yojishinkawa https://www.instagram.com/p/B3u1hGTDwoq/?igshid=9ouezl9htz8v

Stumbled all over #inktober #day2, but there’s a theme, and I’m hoping it’ll come across in the end! Lessons learned: - design the shape of my washes first - dilute my colored inks - build up my washes to inks! (I think in photoshop where I can color over whatever the hell I want) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3ITiDGgABl/?igshid=sjahnfaqrljo

Really wanted to do a portrait of @perturbatormusic - finally saw his show at the @thephoenixtoronto in Toronto a few months back. Excellent live performance! Love his music so much! . . . #perturbator #synthwave #electronic https://www.instagram.com/p/B2m790kDO0Z/?igshid=10pecruxpgon4

I was just about to go to sleep, but then I saw @crom_cristianortiz’s #addamsfamily post, and I had to bust out a #wednesdayaddams before bed. She’s easily one of my all-time fave #characters. Goodnight! https://www.instagram.com/p/BzXcH2GD_z1/?igshid=5bvq4wf5cllx
