→ are you available for commissioned work or brand collaborations?
Yes, and yes! I always have commissions open, but work with a waitlist. Contact me for current availability. For brand collaborations, send me an email and we'll discuss it!
→ can I buy your art?
Yes! If you're interested in art prints, you can find that here. I also have a redbubble for merch and you can commission personal art as well. If you want to support my art in general and support me in doing this full-time, you can take a look at my patreon!
→ where can I find you online?
You can find all my social links over here.
→ what tools to you use?
I draw on either my Ipad Air 2020 or my PC, using a Cintiq 16. I use both Procreate (on Ipad) and Photoshop CC. I use these brushes! I also recommend Kyle Webster's brush sets which can be accessed for free in Photoshop CC.
I use Airserver to stream my Ipad screen. The camera I'm using is Sony A6000 and the microphone is Blue Sona.
→ when did you start streaming?
I started streaming on Twitch in April 2020, mainly focusing on Animal Crossing. I got partnered in June 2020 and since then my channel has evolved into an art and variety games channel!
→ what did you do before full-time content creation?
I worked at a game company as a graphic artist, while also doing freelance on the side.
→ what is your preferred medium?
I almost exclusively draw digital.
→ did you go to art school?
No, I have not been to art school. I'm self-taught! I did attend Game Design and graphics for uni, which gave me a bachelor in game design. It mainly focused on design, game-creation, 3D modeling, etc.
→ how long have you been drawing?
I started drawing when I was 13 y/o. Since then, I've been drawing most of the time but have also taken long breaks from art here and there.
→ how long does it take to finish an illustration?
It really depends on what I'm drawing and what it contains, but an estimate would be 5-12 hours for a full piece.
→ can I use your art as profile picture or header?
Yes, just make sure to credit properly and clearly visible!
→ can I use your art as wallpaper?
Of course! If you want proper wallpaper-sizes specially designed for both PC and mobile layout, head to my patreon. I provide monthly wallpapers over there!
→ do you have any tutorials?
I post occasional tutorials on my patreon.
