I attended an animation panel this year at Dragon Con that allowed participants to animate using their smartphones. The app is called FlipaClip and is free (it does come with ads, fyi). This is my first time animating at Dragon Con, and it was fun learning the app!

I had fun working on this fan art of the Riddler. Inspired by the Batman Forever movie and soundtrack.

Enjoy!

NOTICE: Homeless / Displaced

Hello everyone! Unfortunate update for me here:

My apartment was destroyed by a fire/water damage from trying to put it out, so I have officially been homeless since April 16th, 2024. We've been scrambling messing with insurance and finding hotels to stay in for the time being, and things are finally a little more stable on that front for now.

All progress/contact/etc may be limited for a while until we can get back into a proper home 8( I appreciate your understanding and if any commission clients need refunds, just contact me and I'll do my best to get it to you (I can still only do half refunds for partial work)

If you'd like to help me out with expenses while we get back on our feet, my Ko-Fi is here:

Thank you for all of the help I've already received, and if anyone else can help as well! I hope to be back to things as soon as I can, but it may be a good month out before I really can

Much love, please take care <3

When it looks like your team is going to win but doesn't work out at the last second. Explored some emotions for this animation assignment. Learned some things with this animation.

Just completed another animation exercise – my class explored weight and how a character would try to lift a heavy object. This project was a lot of fun in creating a story while understanding this principle.

Enjoy!

Sorry it's been quiet on my end. Grad school and work has been keeping me busy.

I did a character turnaround to help with my current animation with the same character. It's very rough, but it gives me an idea for future turnaround animation.

Recently, I completed an animation exercise focusing on overlapping action. It was fun figuring out how to work with the bouncing and the motion of the character's tail. As the character is jumping forward, I will do the same in another exploration of discovery.

This is my first assignment for my animation graduate studies. Taking two different balls (size, weight) and animating them on a platform.

I learned a lot about Timing and Spacing with this project. I still have more studying and practicing to get the hang of it, but I am grateful for the progress.

This past weekend, I studied the bouncing ball and the mechanics for the exercise. In researching, I found amazing information that professional animators gave credit to this exercise.

Looking forward to learning more!

A new year, a new journey. Let's ride!

I really had fun working on this piece. Out of the many characters in the world, it is Sonic that helped me understand character design, and to always look forward to a new adventure.

A little rough animation for my animation graduate course. Still have more scenes to rough.

Still getting used to creating art in Procreate, but I am enjoying learning the software. I really had fun doing a quick art piece of Yor Forger from SpyxFamily as tonight’s practice. Enjoy! :)

I illustrated Sailor Jupiter for a great friend of mine, an amazing champion in her own right! It was a lot of fun drawing these poses. Not to mention Sailor Jupiter is awesome - representing that green and kick butt attitude!

Enjoy and thank you for viewing!
