My personal art
I like to draw my own characters and fanart! I focus a lot on emotions , tiles and water . Grunge and japanese fashions and subcultures inspire me a lot . One style I take a lot of inspiration from is yami kawaii , meaning “sickly cute” - i really like this style to express my mental health, so I feel my art is a good way to vent this out.

Emotions/portraitsi like to draw big expressive emotions , i find these really fun to do with my cartoony style.
Character designHere is how I made some of my characers! My style contains a lot of circles so my characters and style seems more approachable and friendly, which contrasts a lot to the moods i usally draw since they’re quite gloomy.

about me ;
Please contact me by Instagram if you have any questions or commission ideas 🩷I would like to go into , digital content ,comic art, storyboarding or illustrating products.I enjoy drawing 2D art traditionally and digitally. Normally, I draw my own characters and harajuku decora in a stylised way, inspired by western cartoons and anime. I like to use bright colours and thick round lines and a lot of pressure sensitivity. I love to use hatching to identify shade on my art because it can add texture to some areas.Relavant Education:Social media marketing lv2 : PassCreative iMedia GCSE : D*2Fine art GCSE : 7Animation, illustration and games design level 3

I really like impressionalism and using pens. However, I have experience using acrylic paints, watercolour, fineliners and pencils. I can do traditional art and digital, but I prefer digital.
