When you're a cross-hatching artist and hope they zoom in. 🥲

I can't entirely tell you where I was going with this. Ever had the urge to draw a fish that wasn't a fish? 🐌🦏

Happy #inktoberday4 !

Oh hey, Cat finally finishes another illustration after touching it once every 2 weeks for 3 months. 🤖

I've been experimenting with spotty spraypaint background for ink work, and I think I'm into it!

More pen and ink fun on illustration board. I was attempting a skater inspired broom flying pose with my crow girl. Swipe for scan detail and references. ✒️

Honored to have been part of the Amplified Creations show at the @fullertonmuseum . It was so awesome to be given the opportunity to take my pen to a Fender Telecaster!

Back last November, over 40 artists including myself were invited to design on Fender guitar bodies for the first exhibition, and I am grateful to have been selected as one of six artists to carry the work into a second show where our designs were built into fully playable guitars.

Big shout out and thanks to @xzbtlife for creating this opportunity, @fender for providing the bodies, building the guitars, and giving us a behind the scenes tour of the factory, and the @fullertonmuseum for hosting both exhibitions.

A special shoutout to the amazing artists selected alongside me, @more.leaders @jozef_made_this , @codyjimenezart , @susiesilvacreative , and @jeffzugale . 😊😁🤘

Finally, I wrapped this up after months of ignoring it on my easel. 😅

Started with a sanded skateboard deck, primed it, and used a mix of waterproof ink pens to build up all the details. It’s packed with tiny lines and all kinds of cross-hatching. IG probably down res’d it a bit.

Had a lot of fun with this one and can’t wait to attack a longboard next. :)

Despite being smaller than most years, @official_gdc 2026 was easily my favorite, and all because of the strength of this community that continues to grow organically over the years.

Huge shoutout to @societyforgamecinematics for hosting an amazing first Annual Awards Ceremony. It celebrated not only the brilliant work of the nominees and their loved ones, but also brought so many talented and well dressed minds together in one place. 🎩

Also super grateful to visit the @ilmvfx campus in SF before attending the ceremony. ❤️ What an awesome week!
