Sketching :)

Took another shot at drawing realistically. Obviously, it's not my go to style since I like drawing cartoons ahaha. 😅 But I drew my favorite OCs because they're such a cute couple. 👉👈 tee hee They still look kinda cartoony because of the eyes.

Ballet

Here's some more self-insert art of me, except as a kid now. :) I wanted to see how I would draw myself younger and kinda felt like reflecting back to elementary school. Which really sucked for me by the way. SOo story time?? Maybe??

Back in first or second grade, I used to take ballet/tap dancing classes. It was already difficult for me to make friends because I was the "weird girl" so maybe I could've made friends outside of school but nah. I literally got bullied for having arm hair. I remember this blonde girl in particular called me a gorilla a lot. Her mom would also give me dirty looks before rehearsals but I didn't tell my mom because I was always "over-exaggerating" and thought this time wouldn't be any different. But yeah, I also had no friends in ballet and the instructor never paid attention to me unless the other girls lied about me to get me in trouble. I hated going and eventually my mom unenrolled me because I wasn't even trying anymore. Aside from that, my mom was also scammed out of a lot of money because she never got my pictures in the performance tutu/dress. There is ZERO evidence that I've actually been there. So yeah, I could've been really good at dancing but I'm in the miltary and talent-less now.

Navy Working Uniform

If you couldn't tell, I like to draw myself a lot. Out of uniform most of the time but on rare occasions I draw myself in the Navy's uniforms. I wish I joined when the blue NWU was still around. Wearing green misleads people to think I'm in the Army instead of the Navy. I'm not exactly patriotic or politically inclined but I really like military uniforms in general.

The blue uniform is inspired by the Blue Type 3 Navy Working Uniform but with my twist of stars because I think that would be neat!

My First TikTok!! :)

Finally posted something on tiktok after a long time of contemplating whether I should upload at all. The sound isn't mine but it reminded me of something Danny Boo would do. I thought of drawing Chavo at first but the dog in the original video ran down the hill so fast there was no way good ol' Chavo would do that!

Conisder following, please! I'm inconsistant with how often I upload because of work but I promise not to be boring. :D

Comic Re-Draw

I was looking over my old stuff in highschool mostly because I feel bad for never finishing that one comic I really wanted to draw. This is a piece of an old draft that I thought would be cool to re-draw.

11th grade circa. 2018/2019

22Jan22

I didn't add my teacher character because I never really liked her design but I used to never be able to draw older people so :\

I might re-draw her looking a lot older in the future but I don't have a clue how she would look like yet.

Finished Pikachu Mural

I'm currently in Japan for detatchment and usually, commands add a mural to the walls with art and nicknames. So of course I was asked to paint something for my command. 🙂 It was fun! There were a lot of funny ideas to go around despite not actually exploring Japan due to covid.

Pikachu is cooking a C-130 engine because we had to do 2 engine and 3 propeller changes (not fun). He looks unsettling because that's honestly been the mood for the whole detatchment. We basically worked a ton and only went out for steak ONCE.

I got a nickname too! Apparently, I'm Ms.Naps-A-Lot. 😂

I had to censor a couple things because my last name was on it and I don't want people to know which command I work at.

I really liked this sketch from one of my journal entries.

I've been working long hours lately but don't worry about me. I'm actually alright and journaling helps me internalize my problems. They usually turn out not to be a big deal. :) I hope to go back home to the states in 2-3 weeks.

I really liked the color swap idea so I drew some more Chavos ☺️✨

Below are their names and personalities/quirks 🎵

2021 Art Portfolio :)

Hey!! I know I don't post much on Tumblr.. But that's because I don't get a whole lot of traction here. I'm most active on Twitter and Instagram.

With 2022 already underway, I think my New Year's resolution is to be more active on social media and gain a decent following (+make online friends). That'll be mad difficult because I'm 20 and already busy with Navy work but I will make an effort to post about my characters more often! I guess I'll post an about me sooner or later lol.

But do take a look at what I've drawn last year! I've got sketchbook and digital stuff. I'll attempt to find my favorites from each month. Enjoy! :)

Happy birthday to Sassy Jim! 😂

✨🌸✨🌸✨🌸

Stg, I don't pay attention to any other of my OCs' birthday except for this one.

🌸✨🌸✨🌸✨

Why is Sassy Jim's birthday on April Fools? Welp. Because he was supposed to be a joke character. Just a caricature for my friends and I to poke fun at when I was in middle school. BUT THEN, I gave him ✨trauma✨ and now he's one of my favorite comfort characters to draw.
