Dear Libraries, I can't imagine my life without you. Thank you for being there anytime I needed that next Nancy Drew mystery. Thank you for making me a book lover, for showing me what stories can do. I am who I am because of you.

Thanks to Authors Against Book Band for this beautiful template 💌 long live libraries!

Hi Tumblr! It's been a minute — good to be back. Just some recent fun little outfit drawings.

One of the activities that has made me a better artist is critique discussions with other artists! In the spirit of this, we've started doing creative crit over on my patreon 🎨 for $3/month you'll get monthly personalized feedback from me on something you're working on. If you feel stuck and don't know what to make, I also throw in a little monthly prompt!

The Norns are three giants who weave the tapestry of all beings' fates. Playing around in procreate. I've started using @maxulichney's brushes, and I'm still learning how to get the textures and blend that I want, but they're so much fun! Started this as an entry for the @characterdesignchallenge monthly prompt: Norse Mythology. Not sure if this qualifies now, since it turned into more of a scene and less of a character design 😬 . . . #procreateillustration #experiment #maxpacks #chamisakellogg #illustration #digitalpainting #drawing #norsemythology #norns #fates #lighting #goddess #trees #glow #mythology #magic https://www.instagram.com/p/B-c1h51hjDw/?igshid=1rsp5nis4tamx

Drew some doggies today, and then realized they each expressed a different quarantine sentiment. I have felt all of these things multiple times in the past few weeks. . Also, I love dogs 😍 . . . #characterillustration #characterdesign #charactersketches #dogsketches #dogillustration #dogsofinstagram #illustration #chamisasketchbook #chamisakellogg #drawing #animalillustration #pets # (at Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-YieohhXGw/?igshid=effp6s06mg9h

The beautiful thing about drawing is that whatever I'm observing suddenly becomes interesting to look at, especially the things I take for granted, like the view out my window. Thanks @carsonellis for this #quarantineartclub assignment. I'm a day or two late but wanted to post anyway. #qacoutyourwindow . . . #ink #drawing #painting #illustration #portlandoregon #portlandartist #chamisasketchbook #chamisakellogg #home #windowview #westcoast https://www.instagram.com/p/B-QWOGxHbR1/?igshid=b60n68t2ru9l

The magnolia tree in our back yard is just starting to drop her petals. Had to get a little drawing in before they're all gone.
