A quick process time-lapse of an illustration I did 🍄 my process in Procreate is a bit different. I start with background and space, then, I focus on the main characters 🎃 then I draw all the little details, such as tools and boots, in other files and kind of copy and paste them where I want them (sometimes it’s hit or miss) 🍄

Hello! I’m back from a long hiatus from social media (or at least posting on them) 😊 A lot has changed since I posted last on here, and 2023 from September on was challenging, to say the least. I lost a very special person in my life in September, which forced me to reevaluate everything. Instead of creating content for social media, I decided to focus on my work. I only took on projects and commissions I was passionate about, and to be honest … it was the best thing I could do to heal 💛 And now I can’t wait to share all of them with you! Thank you so much for each and everyone who stayed with me during this time - it means the world to me ❤️
