Hi! I really like your art style. There is not much FFII fanart out there, so seeing what you have made makes me quite happy.

Thank you so much!! I love FF2, it's got such a strong imagery and memorable character design, it's often been a source of inspiration for me and I wish it would be to others as well! :')

Thank you!! I love this ask, I'll make sure to pass it along 💞

Look my Tactics Ogre Tarot project is probably my favourite work I've done. First because of the subject, the decision not to repeat characters and the ideas behind each choices (a lot of thoughts went into it actually). Second because I worked with a consistent colour palette through the entire set. Everytime I introduced a new colour, I had to consider carefully if I really needed it, so tones keep repeating through the cards but the different associations still make each of them feel unique. Colours matter a great deal to me and I feel this truly reflects it. And finally because I built this series around the idea of negative and positive space and played around with margins and how they interact with the illustration. The role of blank space in these cards and how it interacts with the shapes of the illustrations just work really well. The only problem is I keep thinking "How am I ever supposed to do anything better than this now"

It's one work but also 22 single illustrations - but if I had to choose one as my favourite, it might just be this one:

2) Oh damn how am I supposed to do any better now...

When I painted this one digitally I used a 3-colours palette (well initially it was really 3 layers of grey since I knew from the start I wanted to risoprint it). I was really satisfied with the mood and composition, as well as the colours. But then I got it riso printed, and the printing process altered the overall feeling of the colours, their values, and added a texture to them that actually made me fall in love with it all over again.

3) Do you ever make something and you just don't feel it at all but then you give it a bit of time and you realize you actually do really like it? Somehow while painting this and even after I kept thinking it just wasn't right and then I kept coming back to it thinking "I'm a fool. This is good actually"

Shop update

New stickers, B-Grade prints & other regular prints are now available!

Regarding B-Grades

A while ago, I sorted through my riso & foil prints and set aside those with issues. Colors don't 100% align from one riso print to another and variations are to be expected. However some have noticeable misalignments or flaws like printer marks. The foil print can show damaged corners or discreet scratches in the foil. (A-grade prints remain available)
