The arcade dragon's lair 🌟 How many characters can you spot? . I'm working on getting my shop ready to open for a Holiday print sale! I'm planning to open the vaults to let everyone order prints from older sales along with new prints. So sorry the store has been closed for so long! Will be ready in the next couple weeks! . #arcade #dragon #digitalpainting #digitalillustration #dragons #fantasyart #visualdevelopment #visdev

Even spider heroes need an afternoon break ☀️ . I painted this for Process Adventure 24! You can watch the process back under the story highlight by the same name! I cannot WAIT for the next Spiderverse movie . #spiderman #spiderverse #milesmorales #gwenstacy #digitalillustration

He wants some bread... 🥖🥐 . How's everyone doing? I know I've been away for a while. I'm focusing on my health and rest and getting better each day! #dragon #dragonart #dragons #bakery #fantasyart #digitalillustration #digitalart

“The river was called… the Kohaku River” I’ve always loved this “Spirited Away” scene so so much and wanted to paint something that represented the emotion of the moment. Exuberant joy! Epiphany! I saved out the whole process under the story highlight “Process 30” if you want to take a look! I know I’ve been away for a long time, soon I’ll start to be around more again!! Hope everyone has been well ✨ #studioghibli #ghiblifanart #spiritedaway #chihiro #haku #digitalartist

Swipe to see both Zelda pieces! I’ve been working on both of these paintings just a little bit each day over quite a while. It’s hard for me to even sum up how much Breath of the Wild has helped my mental health especially when I’ve had physical health issues to contend with. And I also can’t describe how excited I am to dive into Tears of the Kingdom soon and explore for months and months and months. I hope you guys enjoy these pieces! I think they describe my love for these games better than words can. #zelda #breathofthewild #tearsofthekingdom #thelegendofzelda #digitalpainting #digitalart

Only one more week till Tears of the Kingdom drops! Are you ready 👁️ Had to paint Link with his fancy new arm, maybe I’ll paint Zelda to match… #legendofzelda #tearsofthekingdom #zelda #link #digitalart #digitalartist

“The Lantern Shop Dragon” - the newest dragon in my dragon series! This piece was painted for a YouTube collab with @clipstudioofficial and painted of course in Clip Studio Paint! This was my first time doing a full, finished painting in a program other than Photoshop, and I’m really happy to report it went very smoothly, which was a big relief. If you want to watch the full painting process and see how I made it, head on over to my YouTube channel, the link is the play button logo at the bottom of the linktree in my bio! I’ll also throw the link up in my story! This piece is meant to take place during a Lunar New Year festival in Vietnam, when you buy a lantern you head over to the lantern shop dragon, and he lights the lantern for you! 🔥 #fantasyart #urbanfantasy #dragon #dragonart #digitalart

“The Avatar State” My attempt at depicting the sheer awe and scale of the “Avatar State” bending in the show, with the many Avatars of the past channeled through Aang, and also continuing to attempt “poster” style compositions. At first I was going to include Korra in this too but decided she should get her own instead! I’ve been trying out new working techniques to avoid triggering migraines these past couple weeks, and I painted this unusually, over many days doing a just a bit of painting at a time. And I think it actually shows, in a positive way. #avatarthelastairbender #avatar #aang #atla #digitalart #digitalpainting

“After the storm ends” It’s been storming a lot here lately, more than usual for sure, and there’s always something I love about the hours right after a storm passes. It reminds me a lot of the feeling after an illness or difficult time passes in life too. Whether it’s a real storm or one just inside my head, there’s just something about going outside and looking at the blue sky. #digitalart #digitalpainting #shiba #shibainu #illustration #visdev

My homage to Howl’s Moving Castle 🌟 #studioghibli #ghibli #howlsmovingcastle #artvideo #digitalart #digitaldrawing

Nausicaä & Teto 🌟 swipe for process in reverse order! . Staying true to my goal of practicing my character portraits this year! This movie is one of my favorites, and this scene always makes me tear up. The music, the glow, takes me right back to watching it as a kid and being so mystified. I never caught as a kid that her dress is dyed blue by the baby Ohmu 🥺 #ghibli #studioghibli #nausicaa #ghiblifanart #digitalart #digitalpainting
