Found this absolute goofball on my night walk. My heart can’t take it. 😻 Zero thoughts, 100% pure chaos.

One of the angriest street stairs I’ve ever crossed.
Stairs that are fundamentally done with everyone’s shit.

The final version of my Character for my middle school graphic novel. His skin color came out perfect. Had to mix those colors instead of using tube colors or any markers. Love the outcome. Hope you like him.
Bye with Love.

My favorite part about doing custom art and illustrations is making people happy. I love seeing the look on their face when they see their piece for the first time❤️ this is a visual biography I did recently for someone.

Shout out to all of my fellow #illustrators.

This #illustration from my latest book "Alithia Ramirez Was an Artist" sums up the experience nicely, I think!

Something I've realized lately, even after all these years of illustrating, I still don't like drawing people noses. I need to come up with a nose style I like doing. I've also decided I need to be more purposeful in my style of people.

Barnaby thought he’d found the ultimate nap spot, but the hay had other ideas!

🍯 This cozy bear just realized that being "snug as a bug" involves a lot more tickling.
