July Newsletter (Patreon)

Hi everyone! It's a new month, so here's what I've been up to!

Graphic novel update!

Good news: I just got thumbnail approval today, so I'll be moving on to pencils/sketches this month!! So while I can't show you every panel along the way, those in the Harvest tier can expect updates here and there that give a peek into how things are coming along!

(The book is currently expected to be 260+ pages, so I may be at this for a while!)

Other art-related news

First, I just wanted to note that I've started this month's illustration! It feels like I've been doing a lot of nature-themed ones recently, so this time I wanted to take it in a different direction and went with a candy theme. I'm having a lot of fun with it so far, so I hope you like it once it's finished!

I also have a brand new skirt design appearing in Maya's shop this Thursday (7/4) at noon ET! This one is wildflower-themed - I'm really excited about how it turned out!

There are also going to be brand new mini versions of my raspberry and luna moth skirts!

Misc

I haven't done any in-person events in a while, but if any of you are in the greater Birmingham, AL area, I'll be setting up a table at the Hoover Public Library for their Sci-fi / Fantasy Fest! It's an all-ages public event that will be happening on July 27th from 10am - 6pm.

Beyond that, I don't have much else to note; I've been chipping away at some other contract work, but nothing too exciting. Also, I haven't been talking about this as much recently, but as a quick update I started attending physical therapy again, which has been a huge help in keeping me on track - with any luck I'll be able to fully get back into my usual groove in the future! (Take this as your sign to start a strength training routine hahah)

Have a great July!
