For the brand new year, I’m stepping up to handle my anxious mindset and bolster better flow for my creativity.

November 2025 Sketchbook
The year is almost over, yet I still feel so behind…. I’ve made an okay amount of art but I think I’m hitting the later year slump.

Spooky Month has come and gone! I didn’t participate in any art streak events, but I still made a solid chunk of work over this month!
Continue readingA Review of Tiny Sketchbooks
If you’re interested in drawing more, but don’t know where to start, I recommend keeping a small sketchbook close to you! When I’m at my day job and away from my drawing desk, having a small sketchbook helps me jot down ideas I get.
A while ago, I dropped a short blog post about ways you can get in drawing practice. In it, I discus sketchbooks that I’ve used before, so I’m elaborating more on cool sketchbooks to draw in.

Another week of sketches I’ve been cooking up in my spare time to keep myself going during the daily grind.
Simple Art Practice on the Go
To help people out with their New Year’s Resolutions of learning to draw, I thought I’d drop in my two cents on getting started or getting into it.
A concern I find is the lack of time to draw. When I’m always on the go and away from my drawing desk at my day job, having a small sketchbook helps me jot down ideas!

It’s almost the new year and I look back on 2021 with thoughts. It started out with promise, but I think it went downhill closer to the end. I can’t help but say I felt directionless and the stuff I’ve been doing wasn’t as amazing as I’d like for it to be.
Let’s Make A Comic Part 1: Thumbnailing
This is my process on how I make preliminary thumbnail art for creating my comic story, Incident at the Game Store! If you’re up to having a signed physical book for yourself, you can stop by my Etsy store and grab a copy!
I was struggling to write a new comic after Shirley’s Day. So I decided to adapt an existing story to save writing time. I got the idea to create a collection of the dumb greentext stories from 4chan, Reddit, and Imgur. Many of these dumb internet posts are outlandish, so they’re a great source of visual ideas for me.
This is the original greentext story. Since it’s anonymous, I have no idea who originally wrote it. So, if someone messaged me claiming they’re the original poster, I’d have to take their word for it.
Making Changes
I’ve recently had an interview with Will Humphrey on his podcast Will Vs. You Talk Too Much! It’s a great time, and nice to touch back with my old friend from college!

I’ve been making changes to my website when I have the time. Been video editing, drawing, and some other things in life.
Continue readingArt & Work
Recently, I’m posting art that I haven’t posted on this site before. As much as I maintain my Twitter and Instagram to keep my art in people’s eyes, I still need to remember that I built this website to archive my artwork.
After someone scrutinized my website, I found some issues that I’m taking time to fix. I haven’t been able to focus on personal projects as much as I’d like, as I’m crunching and focusing on finishing my freelance work for Flawless Extra-Ordinary Super Heroes.
