As much of an accomplishment as it seems to get one’s doodle retweeted by @sketch_dailies or someone that many might call a “celebrity,” it’s not something one can put in a resume. With that said, here’s a silly little happy moment: my tank girl got retweeted by @sketch_dailies.
Since I don’t often update this site, but I do daily gram and post on social media, it’s probably better for us to connect on one of those levels. See you there!
lupita Nyong’o was just beautiful in her Prada dress and sincere words.
Portia de Rossi in an intricate Naeem Khan gown.
Kate Hudson in Altier Versace was just stunning.
Jennifer Lawrence in Dior was just stunning.
Since the only celebrities I draw are chefs and comedians, I’m officially stating that these are not celebrity portraits, but drawings of characters that I love.
It took me many tries and 2 days on set to get Leonard right. You’d think it’d be easier to draw his features.
I fell in love with this app, art studio, and now that the USB port on my computer needs a-fixin, my phone’s been my main source of color for my doodles.
I’m being featured again on mister dressup! This time it’s this little guy, so go and get yourself a shirt!
I’m apparently the featured designer for a whole month (from now till March 24th). I’m so thankful for these guys and what they do!
What is it about a guy that can stylize AND turn a form that makes a girl be like:

I am officially searching for my fellow unicorns.
Unlike many artists that I know, I grew up longing to fit in. Standing out and seeming to be unique always isolated me. Am I alone here? In a culture where individuality is not only encouraged, but prized, I’ve also been unique in having these feelings as well.
Being an even split between an INTJ and an INFJ, and also between a harmony-seeking idealist and an independent thinker apparently makes me a mentally deformed mutant. It’s possibly also why I have so many interests and jobs.
Sometimes these different worlds collide. Perhaps not too many people who enjoy my illustrations know that I also do things in fashion. Mostly hair/ makeup & styling. When I’m working on a set, or thinking of an outfit, or styling someone, I tend to sketch out the ideas and I’m endlessly grateful that I don’t have to hire an illustrator for projects.
I’m still looking for other unicorns.
When I first began using this app, art studio, I was timid and conservative with color and lines. Then, I thought, “screw this,” and this happened.
The most recent installment of the “Hotel California” series. This is #4, finger painted on the iPhone via the art studio app.
“Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (Any time of year)
You can find it here”
