That’s the sound I think of when taking a pointillist approach to shading. Here’s a time-lapse video of the dooting in action:

Seeing Double
Playing around with reflecting my illustrations in a mirroring app – it is giving me a lot of ideas for future projects!
Is it Halloween yet?
Psssst… Wouldn’t this look great as part of a coloring book? After this series is completed, I want to self publish it!
2 artists, 1 pledge
It might not be filthy, but it is titillating:
Help two artists with one pledge!
If you become a patron of Lefthanded Lenya within the next 28 days, you could help @disabledfemme and myself both earn a $500 bonus. Each patron can pledge as little as $1 a month, so if 28 of you beautiful humans reading this can spare $1, the goal will be met.

Devil’s in the details?
Whenever I want to practice my lettering, I start a new ouija board. This was the first I ever made!
Practice, Practice…
A cursory glance at my art reveals I LOVE fussing over details – the more little lines and dots I can squeeze in, the happier I am. It’s meditative, losing myself in repetitive linework.
So, I just started a new illustration a bit larger than my standard work (11″ x 15″ instead of 10″ x 12″), filled with detail for me to faun over. I want to practice adding depth to my illustrations, and varieties of texture. The sketch I made is based on my study abroad experience in Ecuador, hiking through the rainforest to a circle of lemon ant trees. These tree groves have an interesting name in Quichua, the native language – Supay Chacra, which translates to “The Devil’s Orchard.”
Trying to push through my urge to make every line perfect and just MAKE. THINGS.

In need of a new grimoire? Fancy something spooky to haul your tomes or stash your potion ingredients? Want to drink coffee… like a necromancer?
As far as I’m concerned, every day is Halloween and every night is right for witchery – and my art reflects that.
