Hello There! I'm officially on the hunt for new artistic job opportunities, especially in the animation, gaming, or illustration fields. If you'd like, check out my portfolio here! It has examples of my professional work as well as personal pieces and sketches. Please drop me a line if you know of anything I might be a good fit for!

hi ! im wondering what exactly you mean by ethical labor and materials? i have no doubt the best has been done to reduce exploitation and harm, but everyone has a different definiion of ethical, so i'd love details ! (maybe you precised it somewhere already if that's the case sorry)

our skirts are made in a factory with SEDEX (supplier ethical data exchange) and OEKO-TEX standard 100 certifications. the former certifies ethical labor practices (proper wages, clean working environments, documented proper hours, health professionals on staff, etc) and the latter certifies responsible textile production (proper disposal of waste material, a commitment to minimizing waste, a properly investigated supply chain that ensures everything from the dyes, elastic, and other materials are made ethically).

as a small business we do not have the infrastructure or funds to launch audits of the manufacturers we work with, and even for larger companies running investigations all the way up the supply chain to track things like the production of buttons, hooks and eyes, and other fixings is extremely difficult and expensive, so certifications like this are invaluable to us.

100% agree. I work in animation and the asks there can be pretty big as well. I frequently find myself thinking... What is the rush here?!!?! No one is going to die if their silly cartoon takes more time to make and it would look even better! But it's all about the bottom line I guess. T~T

I think it should take longer to make tv shows and movies. I think shooting days should be shorter. I think AD's lives should be longer. I think we shouldn't have to be in a goddamn rush all the time. I think we should have the time it takes to make good art. I think fans should wait even longer than they do and be happy that everyone who made the art is getting full nights of sleep.

Sketched some bug fairies/people today! Inspired by the book Honeycomb by Joanne M. Harris, which I just started reading. I’m really liking it so far. Imagining what the Lacewing King and all the other fairy insects look like is very entertaining. Especially species that aren’t mentioned in the book, like this crazy gum-leaf skeletoniser caterpillar I found today.

Finally put the finishing touches on this Lupin III style Orville Peck I’ve been working on for a while. I drew while listening to his newest album Bronco on repeat, as well as some other cowboy faves. This is the first thing I’ve drawn for myself in a long time and it felt good to listen to music and draw again, which I did all the time growing up.  I really like how his boots and the clouds in the BG came out!
