a little more about me!


current projects

I've been working on a post-apocalyptic short-story anthology inspired by minecraft for almost a year now!! it's called blocks!!! The 1st draft is on a google site i made a while ago, and the 2nd draft comic is on webtoon, but I'll be publishing the finished 8-part series on wattpad!along with Blocks, i have a published game on itch.io (that i've been trying to re-make for years) called Alive. it was one of my first true passion projects that i put a lot of work into, and i still think it tells a really neat little story. to summarize, it's a text-based interactive-fiction/choose your own adventure game where you explore the void and feed ducks with a stranger :)You can check both of these out using the previous links, or by heading over to [my portfolio website]{} and going to "current projects" :)

u queer?

yep :)
i'm non-binary & agender, as well as an angled aro-ace lesbian (ace + grayrromantic)
pronouns?i use it/they pronouns [ i like it/its, but they/them is also cool too :) ]

what do u use to make art ?

as for software, mainly i use procreate to draw digitally, but sometimes i like to use ibis paint x for comics :)
when i'm working on digital collages i use Canva or pinterest shuffles, and when i need to do some quick text formatting & photo editing, i use photopea :)
i edit almost all of my videos (speedpaints & animatics/animations) with capcut. its a great program and does almost everything premiere does but in a much more intuative and user-friendly way. it's available on desktop and mobile, so you can even edit stuff on your phone if you wanted to :)
i'll accasionally use photoshop, indesign, and premiere but i don't really like adobe, so i don't use them very often unless its for school.
[ industry standard my ass, we love free tools in this house ]
as for hardware, i have a 9th generation Ipad and a 1st generation apple pencil. i use my PC for a lot of design, formatting, and video editing, just because i find a keyboard and mouse make it a lot easier to do those sorts of things.
