5 Years of Art! ---- Art summaries from 2014-2018! Can’t believe how far Ive come! From MSPaint to FireAlpaca, Happy New Year everyone!

Playing around with creature anatomy and colors, wanted to draw something with really long claws!

There is this trend going on where artists are compiling eyes from their work, it was actually really hard to find pieces that weren’t just using dots or lines for eyes in my art! A lot of these are older drawings!

Been working on a fluffy, pastel, soft, dragon character design! Her name is Mochi and her look is very sweets + dessert themed, she’s a teen popstar + social media star with lots of energy. Now to work on drawing characters who don’t always face to the left 👀💦

Was originally for a design contest but it got canceled last minute. City aesthetic + sphinx cat character design!

There was a special June event on Dappervolk, a beta rpg game i’m a part of! The event included a lot of snails so as a fun little way to celebrate I turned a handful of people’s avatars into snails! Here is the Snarmy!

Update to me portfolio! Took a team based Game Dev class and worked with 4 other students, programmers + artists, to create a side scrolling platformer within a deadline (for URCAD 2018)

Thank you #UMBC for 4 years of great community, it wasnt perfect by any means and the last 2 years were hella bumpy. But i dont regret anything! ---------- And to my campus fam, thank you all for 4 years of love! I'm truly blessed to have met you all and to call you all my friends! Heres to more amazing years to come! We survived UMBC we can survive anything! And we'll do it together! 🎓💛🎉 -------- #classof2018 (at UMBC University of Maryland Baltimore County)

Giffed version of my mograph final!

My motion graphics final! The only requirement for this assignment was to make a 3-5 second long name plate. I got permission to use characters from Dappervolk, a pet site currently in beta testing! Wanted to use After Effects to make a simple gif that could then be precomped multiple times into a more complex comp. Inspired by SlimJim Studios’ work!

Final business card design! Just place the order, fingers crossed that it will deliver on time for my final!

Closer look at the Birds BG, animated in after effects.

The birds section from my animatic is essentially finished! There are some very small tweaks i need to do but over all i’m satisfied! Currently working on the predator’s section, had to cut out the intro part due to time constraints! BG was a still image animated in After effects, all animal animation was done in Fire Alpaca, and sounds were sourced from freesound.com

Working on some possible business card designs, hard trying to capture the feel of your work into such a tiny space?
