Right now I'm mostly doing fanart. I love drawing, but haven't had much formal training in it (just a couple art courses in high school), and I haven't done much drawing at all for the past several years, so I definitely need to change that!
Unless otherwise noted, my process involves sketching and inking the line art on paper, scanning it to my PC, and cleaning the lines and digitally coloring the artwork in Photoshop.
If you like what you see here, please visit my store on Redbubble. I'm working on making a lot of my artwork available on a variety of products.
