Form NOTHINGNESS......a friend

Finally finished this piece, and it truly felt like wandering through a tiny enchanted garden. I explored a fresh color palette and used my custom #InfinitePainter brushes, creating two new gritty, grungy ones along the way to bring it all together. So happy with the final result! #kidlitart

Explored these two a bit more 🐈👦

Stumbled on a random photo online few days ago, and something about it just clicked. Out of so many that caught my eye, this one truly resonated with my art. I’ve always loved drawing colorful eyes.

Another unplanned piece! 🎨 I was testing out a new brush, just playing around with shapes and colors, totally random at first. Then one of the shapes started to feel like a character, so I went with the flow 😆 Honestly, I’m so happy with how the brushes I’ve been creating are performing!

These past few days have been packed with research, both in art apps and art history. I’m working on letting go of perfection and adding more texture to my pieces. As someone who loves trying out various art apps on both Android and iOS, that curiosity led me to build a custom gouache brush.

Supposedly, a sketch for the strawberry prompt 🍓 featuring Acorn 🌰 that one brother who drives you crazy but you can’t ditch him ‘cause… family. #peactober25strawberry #peachtober25 @peachtober

I honestly don’t even know how this one came out. it just happened naturally after playing around with some new brushes. 🎨 I’ve been wanting to explore texture more in my illustrations, and this piece kind of marked the start of that.

06 • Ring Almost didn’t make it today 😅 it’s been one of those days! So much going on, but right before the chaos took over, an idea sparked, and I ran with it. Glad I squeezed this one in! @peachtober #peachtober25 #peachtober25ring #illustrator #kidlitart #childrensbookillustration #drawdaily

Day 05 – Poppy @peachtober A little picnic scene somewhere dreamy with a friend 🌸 I had so much to do today, so this one’s just a sketch for now—but I’ll definitely be finishing it up. #peachtober25 #peachtober25poppy #illustrator

04 · Gingham “It’s time for a new look,” he said. I started designing this as a two-page book spread before realizing… it’s not actually for a picture book 😅 (at least not yet). But I’ve definitely been thinking about it lately! #peachtober25 #peachtober25gingham #illustrator #bookillustration

Guess who went on a hike today? Apparently he’s not just a wanderer — he’s a singer, too! Who knew this slug had talent? 😆 03 – Slug @peachtober #peachtober25slug #peachtober25 #infinitepainterart #illustrator

I’ve officially made Acorn the star of the show! 😆 Can’t wait to keep unfolding his story and who knows, maybe some new friends will join him along the way. This one’s for @peachtober, and I’m also using it as my #kidlitartpostcard! #peachtober25kite #peachtober25

Discovered @peachtober just a few hours ago and couldn’t resist jumping in! ✨ 01 - Acorn 🌰✏️ Let’s see how many of these I can keep up with 👀 #peachtober25 #peachtober25acorn

✏️ Character design process for “My Dad, My Hero, My Angel.” #characterdesign #digitalart #sketchtocolor #kidlitillustration #picturebookart #kidsbook

Sharing more special dad moments from My Dad, My Hero, My Angel (2023), I had fun illustrating this page. ➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️ Some of my favorite memories with my dad were gaming together and tagging along to his office. Those little moments made me feel so loved and happy.

I’ve worked on over four amazing projects over the years, but I haven’t had the chance to share them, offline work has kept me super busy, and honestly, I’ve been a bit of a slowpoke with online updates. But that’s about to change!

Author’s Art vs Illustrator’s Art 🎨😊 Swipe to see the difference! On the left (first image) is the beautiful and first look by Mr. Adam, the talented author of SNOOFS: Origin of the Snoofs. On the right (second image) is my version, the illustration I created based ollln his concept.

Stepping into the Bluesky community with my very first post—sharing my personal take on #starterpacknoai. As someone who values originality and the creative spirit, this feels like the perfect place to begin. #drawnbyhuman #noai🚫 #starterpack #illustrator #artist
