Hello everyone. Sorry for being MIA lately,

Basically, I've been experiencing some health issues, chronic pain/inflammation flare ups that doctors & I are trying to solve🧐 So I haven't been making as fast of progress on any art or projects as I'd like to. But I'm hopeful to find solutions that work soon.

In other news, I bought a new tablet! Still getting used to it but here is a work in progress I've been meaning to finish for a while now 👾

Gosh. I REALLY need to draw some fanart of The Amazing Digital Circus 🎪 🫧 It’s genuinely a fantastic show and I have so many feels 😭

Happy 2026 everyone 🫧

2025 was a challenging year for many. Yet we always happen to persevere. And we shall continue to do so.

I feel very worn down, but have a greater sense of direction for myself moving forward. Thank you for your kindness & patience as I find my bearings.

So I've recently gotten a new computer, currently sorting through files, and I stumbled upon this silly little interaction from Tumblr years ago.

It's no secret that I have a thing for Soundwave from Transformers (but who doesn't rly) 👀

I view Soundwave more so as a very dear friend and comfort, but I will also always be in love with him lol

I've been considering what path to take towards becoming more present in the future.

Art has been hard to flow back into for many years now. Most of the art I have here is fairly old (10+ years). What I think happened, was that I was putting too much pressure on myself to be "good" at art and along the way, I stopped enjoying the process. So it became harder to perform.

Hey there Anon. Sorry for the late reply.

I am sorry to say that I don't have much of my childhood artwork save bits here and there. There was a house fire my family experienced back in 2016 and I lost several of my belongings, including some of my old traditional drawings.

But I do have a few things relating to Skeleton King I was able to find like these marker drawings of him. I always liked drawing him with silly expressions xD

I also have some drawings of the Alchemist - Sadly, I don't have the original drawing anymore. But I plan on doing some new drawings of him very soon :)

Skeleton King and the Alchemist have always been my favorite character(s) from the show. They're just so interesting to me. Once I found out they were the same person, I was I N T R I G U E D (lol)

I always imagined the Alchemist to be a benevolent individual despite his want to be separated from society. Quirky and curious, with a taste for the unconventional; An appreciator for life and creation whereas Skeleton King was an omen for death and darkness.

This image above, is of my fan interpretation of TV Monster before they became a herald for Skeleton King. Imagining that the Alchemist built the machine to assist him with collecting data about the world around them. I called this "good" version of the character Tele-Monitor. I feel like TV Monster doesn't get any love, which is a shame because I think they're neat OvO

In regards to my last post, here were some of the stages the final illustration went through for the Shuggazine. The first images were a bunch of thumbnails for ideas I had. But given that I was charged with making a cover image for the zine, I needed to choose something that showcased the main cast. Also, I really wanted to draw Skeleton King lol

Last year was the 20th year anniversary of a little cartoon called "Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce GO!", created by Ciro Nieli.

A group of 40+ fans came together to contribute wonderful art and stories in a collective book. We even got some books to the cast and creator! It was an honor to be involved in such a project, working alongside other creatives. It was my first time ever working on a zine.

This was my contribution.

A traditional drawing of a character I designed waaaay back in my high school days. His name is Dominic. Early 20s in age with a pretty laidback, chill attitude.

His signature color is purple.

- Release -

Frantic in pace,

Bursting with haste,

All my emotions have come,

Spilling out.

One of my many works in progress - Still messing w/ composition. It is often tricky finding the best approach to express a vision.
