Here is some environment and character work for my personal project called Nagual. It’s roughly about a young shaman who discovers she has the ability to shape-shift into a jaguar. It is her duty to team up with the God of Death to rally up lost souls and deliver them to the Underworld.
Here’s the last one for now. I’m trying to boost my presence on social media so reblogs and follows would be greatly appreciated! Thank youuuuu :3
This was some environment and prop design I did for a re-telling of Hansel and Gretel that is set in Mogolia

How I Approach Color
I got this sweet message with some very real questions about color! Here is where I try to answer:
Looking at the following pieces, you’ll notice (at the core) it’s an interplay between warm/cool, complimentary colors, or primary colors. Here’s that in order:
But of course there’s a lot more happening than these fundamentals. At least, that’s what it looks like. But really I’m just repeating the same principles of warm/cool, complimentary, and primary colors (color theory) in smaller, more hushed ways throughout the whole painting! This makes it harmonious, but interesting! Let me explain and show through deconstruction:
1. Basic division of primary colors:
2. Smaller divisions of primary colors:
3. Smaller divisions of primary-color-relationships (it just keeps happening):
At the core, we are repeating the same core principle of contrasting primary colors, but with varying degrees of contrast and subtlety as we add more detail.
Indulging in the midtones:
Everyone’s all about those highlights and shadows, but great color treats the midtones just as lovingly. In this piece, you’ll notice bits of what seems to be blues/purples within all the green foliage:
Really, if you color-dropped them, it is just grey. The simplest way to tap into these greys is to just move your color pick to the left and a few degrees towards it’s complimentary color. Now dapple it all over the leaves and rocks and forms! See what it does to your piece.
Midtones aren’t as explicit, but they are certainly felt. It can differentiate mature color to immature color, goodness to greatness, etc. Do allow yourself permission to camp out here longer!
Final:
There’ a whole other half to color that says, “Well, why did you choose to make the sky teal with yellow? Why is the sunset purple this time, etc?” This is all your feelings, your intuitions, your personality, your intention, etc. It really is the large majority of why you choose a color.
It is just as important as the technical stuff, but I can’t really teach you to have a certain taste. I can just urge you to not neglect this part about color (all the FEELS) because otherwise things will turn out hollow. Allow yourself permission to care about the feelings and the technical stuff, don’t shame one over the other, and appreciate the growth in both.
I can only encourage you to keep actualizing your tastes and personality through your art. Repeatedly. This will become more clear and refined for you, and I’m sure you will notice it growing with you as well.
Thanks again for your sweetness and forcing me to reflect and come to my own thoughts about color!
Here are some other resources that say things in a way better than I could:

I promise, this is the last post for today :’) bunch of stuff just had piled up that I didn’t post to tumblr.
In 2017 I will be going to my first US comic convention as I will be tabling at Emerald City Comic Con with my boyfriend @tureekroos and I’m making a first ever artbooklet to sell there, consisting of my inked and penciled traditional artworks. These among with inktobers and hopefully some more!

if we’re being honest it was black lives matter that really paved the way for all of these recent protests like I hope people as a whole aren’t assuming otherwise
Tumblr would enjoy this I thought

Source More Facts
Yes this could have to do with the fact that Freya the Norse Goddess of love, beauty and fertility drove a chariot pulled by cats.
So, if I ever get married, I fully expect a catmobile.
One of the other reasons why they gave cats to each other was for their valuable skills as mousers. Cats were able to control rodent populations around their properties.
Also, Norse myths are thought to have the earliest literary descriptions of the Norwegian Forest Cat. They were described as large, strong cats that drew Freya’s chariot and were so heavy that not even Thor, God of Thunder, could lift them from the floor. (Source)
