These are various personal projects I did
Pet Commissions - Summer of 2023
I started doing pet commissions because I wanted something to do during the summer. Not only that, I was bored with the "realistic" pet portraits. It's not bad, it's just everywhere.
So I took it upon myself to take pet commissions and draw my clients' pets in my style. The challenge I faced was trying to capture the spirit of the pet with the limited photos that I had for reference. My other challenge was how to show the pets' features without going into realism style.
Multimedia - Personal Project
These are two of my original characters, named Auryn (left) and Easton (right). I used watercolor for the coloring, and the Procreate app for the lineart and the eyes on Easton.
Animals and Flowers - Personal Project
I wanted to create something cool with a bit of weird sprinkled into it. I found one of my photos I took a few years ago, the one with the wolf. I finally decided to illustrate it.
Last summer, I was looking around a garden store, and I came across a flower that looked so vivid. I had to draw it. I chose a snake because I like snakes.
