Here is my fourth submission for @creatingblackcharacters ‘s Melanin Beam Challenge: it’s Luz Noceda! Sorry I don’t have much more aside from an unfinished sketch of Willow, and also another unfinished sketch. I really wanted to do more before today but my motivation to draw anything that wasn’t my OCs PLUMMETED out of nowhere. I’ll definitely finish those sketches, it just won’t be today 💔 sorry Ice, I tried

Anyways, here’s the main bad boy herself! I had a lot of fun rendering her! I think I had the most fun drawing the second expression, just cus I love drawing cartoonishly exaggerated faces in comparison to my otherwise simply detailed style lol

I don't say this a lot but... black people, i love us! there's no culture or land we touch (willingly or otherwise) that doesn't saturate with vibrant color and rhythm and flavor and laughter and beauty and song and story. Our beauty is ageless and our very existence is evidence of great resilience, power and community. I fucking love us. We're pure magic 💚💚💚
