'A Ring On It.'

'Blow.' Microsoft Paint.
A favorite from a few years ago! I rarely draw full body things with backgrounds anymore due to lack of time/concentration, but I do miss it

A drawing from last year! The proportions are pretty wonky, but I still really like the colors :)

'Brown Beauty.' Microsoft Paint.

'Still Dreaming.' Microsoft Paint.
An illustration I finished last year. I'm still in love with the idea of stars as freckles.
