What program do you use?

I currently use Firealpaca for all my art!

What brush do you use?

I use a variety of brushes, but my main brush is the Faint Pencil on Firealpaca's brush store! Though I modified it slightly to my personal taste. I use it for resketching (when making clean sketch doodles), lineart, and sometimes shading. Other brushes I use are below:

What tablet do you use?

I currently use the XP-Pen Artist 12 Display Tablet!

How long have you been drawing?

Since 2008! Started drawing digitally in 2014 I think.

Do you draw humans?

Very rarely. If not fully human, it's usually humanoids.

Do you use references?

Absolutely! They are extremely important! All artists have been using them since the dawn of time basically. Not to be confused with tracing!

Can I reference your art?

I'd rather you use references you can easily find online and watch youtube tutorials. These are all for free. Do not fixate on just my art. However, if there's something I'm doing that you'd like to experiment with then sure! I don't really mind as long as it's not a direct copy/imitation or trace over! I'd love see it so tag me if you do!

Can you teach me how to draw?

No, as I'm not really into teaching and definitely not for free. Again, I'd rather you use references you can easily find online and watch youtube tutorials. There's tons of FREE information out there, you just have to look! Whenever I want to learn how to draw anything, I simply type "how to draw ___" into google or youtube.

Commissions

When will your commissions open?

I'm not sure actually lol. Hopefully sometime this year!

What are your prices?

Prices can be found here!

Do you accept PayPal?

While I'd prefer Stripe I can also accept PayPal!

How often do you open?

Unsure at the moment. The plan is to open them on every first Monday of each month unless stated otherwise.

How do you select people?

Based on interest, my confidence in being able to deliver a high quality piece, and character design!

What do you draw/not draw?

All commission info can be found here!

How do you take commissions?

Through slots via Artistree!

Can you ping me when you open commissions?

After I officially open them for the first time I'll consider it!

I don't see my question here!

Feel free to contact me using the form on my contact page!

I like to call my commissions "wishes"

These are the hours I will be available for commissions and communication. I will NOT read or respond to emails/messages during vacations, off days, holidays, or after hours.
