Some clothing studies I did using some new blue brushes.

Then I think I at some point I stopped using them.

Study of a woman I did some time ago. Back when Pinterest was still ok.

[ysandersart]

I keep trying to see if there's a way to get these done faster, but I am not sure if there truly is. Just gotta keep doing it...

Portrait study of man in Procreate.

Done while serving jury duty one day, but I forgot to post it.

Tumblr and so-called "A.I."

Apparently Tumblr is working on a deal to let so-called "A.I." companies scrape the site -- and our posts -- for content to feed their systems. Supposedly we'll be able to opt out, but I haven't been able to find an opt-out button yet in my settings.

First: GROSS.

Second: NO.

Third: It should be OPT-IN, not OPT-OUT. I don't want to spend my time having to track which services I use are going to start this kind of trash policies. I shouldn't have to opt-out - it should be opt-out by default since I didn't approve it when I first signed up.

Third: If anyone finds the opt-out button, please do let me know where it is.

Fourth: GROSS AND NO.

UPDATE: Okay, I found the setting! Go to "Settings," then click on the icon for your blog under "Blogs." Then scroll to "Visibility" and there should be an option to click the setting that reads "Prevent third-party sharing."

Still: GROSS and NO.

South Park fanart based on The 1%.

It was supposed to be just a pinup of him with Clyde Frog, but then I started wondering WHY he would do that and then I remembered the episode and then this piece was born. I figured Butters would be the only one to look for Eric if he was missing as they are on their way home from school.

What is Butters Stotch looking at? WIP of a new South Park fan art!

[ysandersart]

Some time ago I did a sketch of NicholexKyle from South Park. I really tried leaving it at that, but I couldn't so I ended up dedicated it to the episode, Cartman Finds Love. It's one of my favorite episodes and it introduces one of my favorite 'alter egos' of Cartman, Cupid Me.

I still would like them to revisit these three and maybe even try to give Kyle and Nichole another chance at some point...

Completed in both CSP and Photoshop.

A WIP of a comic that I had the honor of being able to work on called Magic Crossroads by Serioussyd! It's part of the anthology called Twisted Garden, a project from Tulane University's Center for Youth Equity. It features comics written by seven New Orleans students about their experiences within the New Orleans school system that doesn't always understand and nurture them.

You can read the comic online here: https://twistedgarden.crd.co/

Magic Crossroads takes place in a magic school and it was my first time being able to draw a comic like that and it was very exciting!

Twisted Garden

Welcome to “Twisted Garden,” a captivating collection of stories crafted by our talented young scholars. These narratives go beyond traditio

Finally finished the piece with Cartman and his mom Liane handing out business cards to Butters and his dad Stephen. Took a good while to finish, but fun to work on. I'd imagine that since she's got her own business that anytime she's outside is a great opportunity for her to advertise so the small sketch I had done of Liane and Cartman shopping grew into this.

Completed in Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop

Gesture drawings of a bunny girl from #gesdrawparty.

You can find them on their GesDraw YouTube Page. Great resource for anyone interested in doing figure drawings.

I have been having a lot of problems doing gestures for a very long time now so I do these to try and help me get back into the grove of it. I am not sure if it's getting easier or harder, but something is happening.

Goth Stan and Kyle from Raisins!

I was re-watching the episode and I thought the part where Kyle came into the dinner to find his friend hanging out with the goth kids was so funny. It sounded something more like an adult would say or a parent to a child. I always liked Stan's goth design. Too bad it was discarded so quickly and never made a comeback.

Capturing what people are wearing in the park.

[ysandersart]

Completed for the Women in Comics x King Manor Comic Book Festical 2022. I wanted to show how comics can bring stories to life even if it's a static medium.

Part of the athletic studies I did earlier in the year. Originally intended to put a background on it, but I don't have the time to do it so...here it is! Took a really long time to finish this, but I learned a lot from it.

Study of woman wearing a colorful scarf.

I was trying to learn how to use all the brushes that I downloaded in CSP, but I don't revall which one I used for this anymore.
