August 2025 Sketchbook

Nearing the end of summer but not the end of my sketching! I’m fiddling about with new coloring techniques and progress on pixel animation!

A monochrome green pixel art mockup of two anthropomorphic animal characters, a raccoon and a sheep speaking with each other with "Lorem ipsum" placeholder text.

As I’m figuring out the last of my commissions, I’m thinking of ways to change up my art output. The chief catalyst is buying a new iPad to sketch in it everyday like my past sketchbooks. It’s been tough as I keep shifting my art attentions around pixel art, digital illustration and general sketching.
