I'm helping out on a short indie project with some great colleagues for the rest of 2025, but I'd love to line up some union work at the beginning of 2026! #PortfolioDay

Feels weird to not have Solar or Lower Decks in production anymore. So proud of what we accomplished on both shows in very different ways. Thank you to everyone on both productions, and to all the fans who tuned in!!

Star Trek Lower Decks commission for Erminia~ This was a lot of fun to do. Tendi and T'lyn :'3

Hey friends! I'm back in the storyboard job market. ✨ I’ve worked for adults, kids and preschool in both 2D and CG shows. I'd love to move up into directing but I'm also cool with storyboard gigs. 😎 Email me if you want to work with me! Thanks y’all! 🖥️ crystalkan.com ✉️ [email protected]

"Animal Avatars" Found this comic test I made last year to see if I could do the whole process on an iPad and be happy with it. It still makes me laugh, so up here it goes.

HOLY SHITTTTT!!!!!!

What I’ve been up to for the last bunch of months!

Sometimes you gotta please the inner child. #makeaterriblecomicday2025

Perfect for adding your favorite union guys at a picket line near you. B)

Going to have a little space at the TAG zine fest this upcoming Saturday at the animation guild building! Going to debut a few new sketch zines from drawings over the past few years. :3

Got to try out #supernote thanks to @jaxcels.bsky.social giving me the lite version of @aluhnim.bsky.social ‘s Ted talk. 😆

AFTER 4 YEARS OF ONLINE COMICS, IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳 overjoyed to launch my 1st Kickstarter ever w @peowstudio publishing! Throw me a bone to help my bday wish come true (just turned 36 baby🎂) MAKE SOME NOISE LOVE YALL!!!!! link to kick and full comic avail below!

Wait holy shit Lower Decks got nominated for two Hugos too! I was so busy celebrating @ryannorth.ca that I didn’t catch it!! LFGGGGGGG!

Residuals from physical media sales do go into the crew’s healthcare plan, which is a roundabout but great way to support the show. Keep the crew healthy until we get hyposprays! 🖖

This show was a silly love letter to animation without being literally about working/creating animation <3

LRT: One of my favorite things to do to mess with anime curious folks is to lead them down the Ikuhara rabbit hole. Never gets old to see people realize how weird anime can get.

Honored for Lower Decks to be a Nebula finalist, especially sharing a list with Dune MF 2! 😎

I'm going to open some limited commission slots to draw anyone's DnD character art in exchange for donations made to either IASTE or @wizardofkitty.bsky.social 's list of direct gofundmes. Message me directly if you'd like to commission! I'm doing busts or full body for tokens, etc for games. 🧵1/3

The list has grown so much since I started it. I know for a fact that there’s still more members affected from the grapevine. Thanks to everyone who has donated so far and shared the list around!

Hi y'all! I started collecting fundraisers for members of The Animation Guild (my union) and their friends and family in hopes of having a centralized list people can send around. Please feel free to share! 📃 bit.ly/TAG839LAFires

Animation Guild members! Did you vote on the new TAG contract?? I've been hacking my lungs out for the last week and a half and still voted so WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? ✊

New photos from the STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS series finale "The New Next Generation" — streaming this Thursday on Paramount+.

Last one for the day, I promise

Me watching everyone react to the secret I’ve been sitting on for a year.

Lower Decks! Lower Decks! ❤️💙💛 #startreklowerdecks

Finally made it to the union episode of DS9! He said the line!!

Finally can post my first Halloween pumpkin carving now that today’s lower decks episode is out!

My first assistant director credit! Forever grateful for the experience I’ve had on Lower Decks and hope to one day pay it forward. 🖖

Whooo!! LOWER DECKS LOWER DECKS LOWER DECKS !! #StarTrek #StarTrekLowerDecks

Feeling pretty proud I’ve unlocked a new party dish that my dad makes all the time but never told me how to make it.

Oops. An impulse purchase so I can play with my fellow lower deckers. 😅

Lower Decks Cross Stitch ~ Based on the doodle you can see on the side door of the Sequoia shuttle that our favourite heroes worked on throughout the 5 seasons of Lower Decks. #lowerdecks #startrek #crossstitch

Moo Deng & Pesto post it note art :3

To clarify, The Animation Guild is NOT on strike! 🚫 These March on the Boss events are ways to show the studios that animation workers are serious about getting a fair contract! 💪 If you’re in TAG, check your email 📧 for upcoming events! TAG or not, sign the contract to show support! ✊

Throwback to the time I won a corn dog penguin and a buttload of other crane game plushies in one morning while boarding on “Starbase 80?”

I made a starter pack for Bluesky accounts of the people who've worked on Star Trek: Lower Decks if you're interested, for both the TV show and the comics. (Also, if I missed you, I am sorry and please feel free to let me know!)

Got my corn dog right here!!!

“Can Klowahkans eat in space since birds require gravity to eat?” -my partner while watching #startreklowerdecks episode 504 Help me Trekkies. 😭

We had over 800 Animation Guild members march up to Netflix to let them know we would NOT be pushed around in negotiations. Extremely excited about this turnout!!! #standwithanimation

Hundreds of #Animation Guild members just delivered a petition to #Netflix executives to show how serious they are about reaching a fair deal in #Union negotiations with the #AMPTP! So happy to help out with volunteering and organizing fellow Members in today's event 👏👏 #StandWithAnimation

Casually getting back into streaming and practice drawing for the next hour or two! Come hang out! www.twitch.tv/wizardofkitty

Oh hi friends who found me here just in time for me to be insufferable for 10 weeks about Lower Decks season 5 😅

I know I just said I like not seeing ads on here, but please enjoy this new ad for Lower Decks Season 5! 😘🫶🍿

My D&D group has been on a baby hiatus for a few months but it doesn’t stop me from drawing my ASMR bard.

Can't believe y'all haven't given Umbert yaoi hands, shoulders and chin yet. #StandWithAnimation #UNIONYAOI #fujoshiunite
