Hello!

I have a question about the stickers you posted about back in December of last year, specifically the rainbow stegosaurus one.

You say you never did anything with them - do you have plans to do things with them in the future? Like maybe selling them somewhere?

I ask because I absolutely love the little stegosaurus and it would be awesome to have one for my own. 🙂

Hope you’re doing well!

Ah that makes me so happy to hear you are enjoying my sticker art! Currently I don't have any stegasaurus buddies printed, but knowing there is interest, I could get some ordered! It's one of my favorites too, I honestly forgot I had it in my files, lol!

If you aren't already, give my Instagram a follow (@ kaijathorson) - I update my stories more often there so you'll know when they are official! Hope you are having an awesome day!

I'm hyperfixated on this neon sketchbook, the paper looks so good with my favorite ink pens!

Stickers I made earlier this year! I never really did anything with them, but I still like how they turned out :) Bright and fun!

November skectchbook pages! (mostly from 11/27, when I felt the panic strike that I hadn't filled my monthly page goal, haha) I hope you enjoy these little planty characters as much as I love to draw them. I'm never aiming for "perfection" in these sketches... just getting out the random ideas that sit in my brain, and practicing my line techniques... I can see progress in these ones, compared to January!

Hello, New/Old Art Blog!

Well hello there, friends... It's been such a LONG TIME since I have logged on to Tumblr! So much has changed on here (and yet it's still the same, am I right?) I'll admit, I have really procrastinated on the whole blogging thing... I had to laugh a little at my last posts on here that said the same exact thing back in 2019/2020... Hey, life got lifey, what can I say!

So, what have I been up to since then? I'm still making art, just posting it on different platforms. Hanging out a lot on my Instagram page - making lots of quick posts and videos of my ink art and WIP sketchbooks. My portfolio site is still kicking, and I show my finished works there... mostly cute digital illustrations. Lately though, I've been missing writing and making longer posts... Maybe it's the nostalgia I have for Blogger, Tumblr's 2010 era, MySpace...or maybe it's my new focus on mental health. Whatever it is, I decided we're trying this out again! Let's see how it goes.

I have LOTS of art and sketches to share from the past few years- good/bad/ugly... it's really going to be fun to see how my style has grown/changed. I have 4 huge rubbermaid totes full of loose leaf paper and sketchbooks, and none of it is scanned in or archived, lol. I have no idea where to start, but I might break it all up by similar themes, and compare! Or maybe I'll make an art book/zine, which I have always wanted to do.

So yeah, let's start with posting something fun to look at! Here are some stickers I made last summer/fall 2022- I still love them and want to print/sell someday. Inventory is a bit expensive to start, but I'm slowly getting supplies together. Shopify, maybe I'm coming your way too in 2024...

Holy 2020, how is it already OCTOBER?! And how is it a year has passed since I last posted on here, lol! I’m such a procrastinator (and to be honest I forgot I had a Tumblr heyy)...

But it’s that time of year again- INKTOBER!! Get ready for some inky doodles:) Here’s what I have so far for the first 2 prompts: FISH and WISP! And as a bonus, I included some plants on a post-it drawn with Sharpie. Yay or nay to that simplified line style?

Hey art buds! So it looks like I drew a LOT more in October than I thought I did- yass! I used a lot of pentel brush pens, copic sketch marker, colerase pencil, and colored ink- overall a super fun time experimenting with techniques and style. So, now what, you ask? Well for November I think I’ll be doing some Huevember, along with a little Inuvember! So exciting!

Just a quick character for this lovely Sunday! Started with an ink sketch that I liked and painted over her in Photoshop. Trying some darker colors to prepare for some spooky Halloween shenanigans...

Plant Doodle 001 and welcome to my new Tumblr! I am excited to post my art here and hopefully reach some new viewers who enjoy whimsical and witchy things in their feeds. (AUTUMN IS ALMOST HERE, my friends!)
