I posted Garnet earlier but I think she deserves her own post especially since this year is the 25th anniversary of Final Fantasy IX. I'm still holding out hope for a remake btw 🤞💎 #garnet #ff9 #finalfantasyix #dagger #finalfantasy #mimisimon

I got an advance copy of my first picture book I illustrated today! It has a lot of moving parts so it was a challenge to figure it all out but it's pretty cool seeing it in action.

I tried the "How Pinterest see's me" trend and honestly they got me pretty good... For these I typed: fashion, place, movie, and character and took the first image.

I spent this past weekend in Nashville TN exhibiting at the first Animation Ya'll Expo. It was great getting to meet lots of other animation pros and artists I look up to including Maya Lior who I traded for the lovely print in the third picture. #animationyall #animationyallexpo

I had this idea for a Dungeon Meshi print in my mind but actually making it ended up being a huge amount of work. Was it worth it? #dungeonmeshi #deliciousindungeon #illustration #fanart
