Welcome, willkommen, bienvenida, etc.
I noticed a bunch of new followers as of late (thank you! I'm flattered), so I wanted to put in a little introductory post.
I'm Kate, a freelance artist in my late 30s who's happily married. Most of my creative work is live caricature art, along with some graphic design and illustration projects and the occasional personal commission.
I'm currently open for commissions—you can email ksantillus [at] gmail [dot] com or DM me here if you're interested. I also have a Ko-fi if you'd like to leave a tip.
My main hobbies are roller derby, which I've been playing for over a decade; and knitting, which I picked up more recently and have found very therapeutic. I've also casually gotten into HEMA fencing, as one does when approaching a mid-life crisis.
Main tags: art — My art. I mostly use Procreate, Photoshop, and Illustrator for my digital art. For traditional art, I primarily use pen & ink and occasionally work with watercolor, gouache, and linocuts. woolcraft — My knitting and needle felting projects. fanart — I'm not a fandom blog, but I will occasionally make fanart for stuff I like. Main interests include old Final Fantasy games (especially VI and IX), Utena, Escaflowne, Dungeon Meshi, Thunderbolt Fantasy, and Look Outside. other people's art — Sometimes I share art from other artists. tunesday — Once in a blue moon I post music that I like. Usually on Tuesdays.
