DTIYS Challenges and New Coloring Page

I've had a great time this summer with some DTIYS challenges on Instagram. It's been a really fun way to kind of kick back and get creative without having to design a character, think of a pose, or come up with an outfit. As well, I've enjoyed trying to let the art style of the DTIYS challengers influence my chibi style. I've tried to be a little more fluid and less same-y with the chibis I've drawn. I think as artists it can be easy to get stuck into a kind of comfort zone or style that just works for…

Aerith and Tifa – Free Coloring Pages

I'm sure you've all been inundated with more 'stay safe' messages than you can take so I'm not going to get on your cases with even more. 2020 has been an absolute rollercoaster of a year, and here's hoping we can all get through this with our health and sanity in tact! As some of you know, I teach full-time, and since school has been cancelled for about 2 months at this point and will not be resuming till next academic year (if then) I have found myself, as so many others, working from home, social distancing and with hours…

Galaxy Dreams – A New Lineart Pack

A while ago, following the publishing of 'Carousel Dreams' and 'Sugary Dreams' I had the idea to publish a third entry to the 'Dreams' series. I thought of 'Flowery Dreams' at first but then a different theme caught my interest; space. And so, the 'Galaxy Dreams' concept was born! Last Inktober all of my illustrations were space themed. However, life got in the way and my muse abandoned me, so I was left with some nice concept art but not enough for a full coloring book. There were, however, just enough illustrations for another lineart bundle on Etsy! (more…)

Magic Bottle – A New Lineart Pack

It feels like it's been forever - things have been crazy busy on my end. I essentially went back to college, am still working my full-time job, and decided that participating in Inktober 2018 would be a good idea! Well, turns out it was a good idea - I never regret doing Inktober - but it does mean some things, like my website, have fallen to the wayside. Anyways, I'm back on track and ready to get some cool new content out for you all, starting with my Magic Bottle collection! (more…)

Princess Chibi Cookie Cutters Collab!

I'm really excited to share this collaboration with you all! Over the years I have been absolutely blown away with the incredible talent of the people using my linearts - besides being colored, people have turned my chibis into beautiful handmade cards, cross-stitch patterns, tattoos, and even bookmarks! But for the first time ever, you can now EAT my art! Yes, you heard me correctly. My collaboration with Cookies Art by Shirlyn has lead to the creation of Princess Chibi Cookie Cutters! If you are of a baking disposition you could make some tasty princess chibi cookies...and eat them, too.…

New Lineart – Peach Ice Cream Chibi

Spring is in the air, I'm enjoying Easter Break, and working furiously on commission orders. I did some museum-hopping and landmark touring - and I am just about ready to get back to work with my energy replenished. In the meantime, however, I had the opportunity to work on this adorable lineart! Meet Delilah the desert elf! My commissioner gave me permission and so this lineart has been added to my open lineart collection! You can learn more about this adorable original character here. She is sitting in a delicious bowl of peach ice cream, although you could color the…

Commissions Open and New Lineart Up!

It's been forever but I have officially re-opened art commissions! Coloring books have been put on hiatus - I need other people to tell me what to draw for a while. Making your own personal art is fulfilling but also creatively draining. So I'm taking a break. I've received some challenging orders so far - I know how I'm spending my Spring Break, that's for sure! Expect lots of new chibis and fun content over the coming weeks. Which brings me to this brand new lineart! Commissioned by a lovely client who has generously agreed to share it with you…

Reading Girl Lineart – New Lineart Up!

I'm down with a cold and doing my best to relax - which somehow ended up in procrastinating on resting by getting some work done! I spent most of yesterday changing the last of my social media account names to YamPuff from HalfBakedYams (a name I chose back when I thought about starting a food blog, which never panned out). Of course, after changing the names I then had to go and fix all the social media links on my site and other accounts. A pain, but a necessary one. Now that that's done I moved on to completing the…
