You’ve heard of the artist with a thousand WIPs. But have you heard of the artist who finishes everything right away but then takes a year to upload said art? Because that’s me. 🤡✨ But that’s okay because I first read the Winternight trilogy by Katherine Arden in the heat of summer! It actually immediatly became one of my favourite book/series of all time. So I had to make some art to honour it💙❄️ Very much inspired by the Illumicrate editions of the series which introduced me to it! Since publishing my own book I’ve been trying my best to get more acquainted with the big book world out there and have been reading more. So who knows, maybe I’ll draw some more of my favourites. 👀✨

My full time job is forgetting to post my work.

Anyway! Have some little cozy fall animals I made at the end of last year. I got really into Neocolor II and love using them in my sketchbook to make little creatures!

This is the first of 3 sets I made. So stay tuned for the next! :)

HELLO! IT’S ME! I’M ALIVE!! (Mostly)

It’s publication day for the UK edition of book 2! A lot went into creating this one so I really hope you love it as much as the first!

In other big news! The webcomic returns next week on January 25th!!! 💚💜🐰✨

If you’ve seen my updates on insta and Patreon you know I wanted to return earlier, but the book and my health held me back. I was ready to return to updating 2 months ago however while in England I got a bad nerve infection in my head. Which will take months to fully heal… 🤡

BUT my meds for the nerve pain in my head are working much better now so I’m returning to updating the comic every other week on Sunday’s! Keeping them a little more spread out for now to buffer in case I have some bad days still.

Thank you so so much for being patient with me all this time. 2025 was true chaos but let’s make 2026 a lot more fun! 🐰🔥🔥🔥

My mental decline as illustrated by tiny crayon animals ✨

I'm very proud of publishing volume 1 of Les Normaux this year. It's something I couldn't even dare dream of just a few years ago. I did however, let the publishing chaos get the better of me I think and it's affected my art and health.

But with book 2 being so close I will be free of the chaos hopefully soon and I hope 2026 brings a soft reset of sorts where I can focus on what's important to me again.

I'm manifesting more fun art, the return of the LN webcomic and patreon and space to work on new ideas for this upcoming year! ✨✨✨✨

oh and I need to POST MORE!!!

It's spooky season! 🎃✨🦇

I had a lot of fun making this little illustration of my boys and playing with riso style brushes for the first time!

I'll have this available as prints and notepads during Thoughtbubble and DCC next month!

[theartofknightjj]

It’s spooky season, my favourite art season! And a great reason to bring Kevin and friends back. I actually drew this back in March and posted it on my Patreon but I just finally came around to posting it here oop. 🦌🌲🚌💀

I’ve been neglecting this place a bit save for promoting the Les Normaux book. But I’m going to try my very best to start posting more now I’ve finished volume 2!

Make sure to celebrate with the physical copy of Les Normaux that’s OUT NOW!!!!

[theartofknightjj]

I’m so excited to announce that the UK version of Les Normaux is OUT NOW!

Which means that all over the world you’ll be able to get your own English language copy!!

I worked closely with the amazing team at Bloomsbury since the very beginning to create this amazing physical version of Les Normaux for you! ✨✨✨✨

‘Monster is just another word for someone different…’ Sébastien recently moved to supernatural Paris hoping to get away from his troubles at home and live a peaceful life learning magic. But what are you going to do when the really hot vampire you made out with last night (Elia) to forget your troubles turns out to be your new neighbour?

But both boys have insecurities holding them back – with a little help from friends, can they find the courage to give romance a go?

Join Elia, Sébastien and their assorted crew of wonderful friends, as they navigate the ins and outs of dating in a modern and paranormal love story. 🐰💜💚
