Vent sketches of some favs with some new neon pastel markers.

Aside from some minor digital tweaking, this is done in watercolor with color pencil embellishments.

I want candy...

Smol Update! And a link for another WIP art piece to The Listening :3

Thanks again, everyone for being so patient with me and my fic. Right now I’m really busy with artwork and possibly trying to work out some kind of schedule where I can stream art, games, and other stuff with friends on Twitch/Youtube. If it all works out, I’ll drop a link and let those who want to join hop in. I really need this. I miss it a lot, and it’s really helping with my mental health. I know you’re all supporting me, and know I’m only one person and can only do so much, I just don’t like making people wait forever for updates. Again, I’ve kind of fallen out of the Life is Strange groove, and not that I don’t like writing the story anymore or don’t like the games - in fact I have a solid plan where it’s going for an ending and am constantly thinking about the story and scenes and such - it’s the act of typing it and and being satisfied with what I’m writing and what I’m delivering. I’ve gotten such amazing comments and support from many of you, and it really means the world to me. It made me want to start my own YA novel of some kind and even start sketching/plotting graphic novel ideas I’ve been wanting to draw for a long time. Baby steps. It feels good.

Again, thanks for being patient as this blog kinda stews for a while. <3 You can always follow my art blog @catsanstudios on here as well for those updates! :) 

I recently uploaded a piece to go with Chapter 26 of The Listening, as well as a Gloria and Hop piece I was working on from Pokemon Sword/Shield!

Yeah, I’m a Postwickshipper :P I’ll probably write some short fanfiction of them, too, because they’re so cuuuute! <3

A commission I did for a friend of their friend! Friend-ception.

More Omori fan art. Plan to make 2 more with the other great creatures/guardians of Headspace and Omori's/Sunny's friends. For now, have some Aubrey and Abbi.

[shiftycatstudios]

It was all just stuff. Stuff in the universe. Just shapes.

"Waiting for something to happen?" Just finished this piece of OMORI fan art! If you couldn't guess, my favorite character is Basil. I relate to him so hard, and I couldn't help but make a piece celebrating him and the game. <3

“In my restless dreams, I see that town...” Work in progress - Will be working more on this on the next live stream with colors. This series means a lot to me. SH2 is a personal favorite, now more than ever as I inch closer to turning 30.

Touched up the girls to get ready to sell at Really Cool Comicon on August 7th! :) I really wanted to put in more effort than my previous touch-up, especially with Yuri. I always thought she looked a little too alien lol.

[shiftycatstudios]

Its been a while since I've drawn this gal. Named her Ellen, "El" for short - even before Stranger Things made that name cool lol. Just another character in my bank of many. Might expand on it for a stream. Either way, felt nice to draw her.

Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, Hay Lin ~ W.I.T.C.H

Finally sat down and did some traditional work with these gals from my childhood. Not the best quality because they're pics taken on my phone, but still. Guardians Unite! 💖💧🔥🌱🌀

Painted a galactic dove for my niece, Olivia, due in October! Used acrylics with beads and glitter on wood. Some of the lighting was hard to get right to show off the sparkles in the last bit, but I got it a bit through a little adjusting.

Couldn't vibe with digital work during my last stream to save my life, but did this ink piece within 15 hours. Got inspired by the new rpg maker game OMORI and it gave me a breakthrough for further development with my OC, Rhys. There's a lot of mistakes, but I like the concept.

[shiftycatstudios]

I found my colored pencils. Naturally, I had to draw Raz.

[shiftycatstudios]

Black and white, working with my copics and inks. Idk what I feel right now. I can't really explain it. Wanted to just do some expressive work with some OCs while on a December hiatus for holidays.

[shiftycatstudios]

Yaaaay for another ink piece to de-stress. Good practice for hand-shape repetition and water effects (which I've really never done...>.>)
