Happy Valentine’s Day! 💕

Heated Rivalry truly surprised me. When I heard the show was premiering, I decided to read the book first and both the novel and the adaptation took me back to my own past: the struggles, the uncertainty, and the slow process of embracing who I am as a person. I honestly didn’t expect it to resonate with me in that way.

It’s also a genuinely good show. It really does justice to the book, which isn’t always the case with adaptations. So I appreciated it for what it was. Also, for what it meant to me. ❤️

Catherine O’Hara has been part of my life since childhood. I grew up loving Beetlejuice and always enjoyed Home Alone and Home Alone 2. Then, during the pandemic, I finally caught up on Schitt’s Creek, and her Moira Rose instantly became my favorite character on the show.

The news of her passing truly broke my heart. 💔 So there was no way I could choose just one role for a small tribute.

My first piece of 2026! 🥂

I planned to share it right after New Year’s Eve, but… I couldn’t finish it on time and once I started, I couldn’t stop repainting and tweaking things. Still, I truly enjoyed working on this one, especially because it’s a callback to my older work from 2008!

This time, the face was inspired by Marilyn.

Elphaba and Glinda vs Cindy Lou Who and the Grinch

I’ve had this idea in mind for a long time, and what was meant to be a simple sketch turned into a highly detailed painting...

Elisabeth and Frankenstein's Creature.

I can’t stop thinking about this movie since watching it. It even pushed me to read the novel, which is much darker, yet I’ve grown to love the story even more.

I always pictured the Creature as the classic 1931 version, so it was surprising to see how different the book and the new film really are.

“This is what it sounds like…”🎶

I love this movie. It’s everything what I loved in Sailor Moon from the 90’s. Magic, romance, fighting demons, being brave and looking fabulous and fierce. I think it’s my favorite movie of 2025!

It took me a while to do this illustration, but drawing recently is challenging to me and I need to warm up a little.

Superman is my first favorite superhero and because of that, this year was super exciting to me. I finally watched the movie and I really appreciated how it was visually similar to Superman 1979.  I also love Clark and Lois’ relationship plus Krypto - such a scene stealer!

The movie also reminded me of Superman: The Animated Series and because of that, I used an illustration from this show as an inspiration for my artwork. ;]
