Today’s sketch: Krampus!
I drew this back in 2017 to play with shadows and composition.
Now this is available on my shop – $10, free shipping during September!

This is part of a celebration I’m doing called Sketchtember. Everyday this month I’ll post a new sketch for sale on Storenvy. Each sketch will be $10 (with free shipping). So support an indie artist and the post office!
Wynd the Wise Woman here was drawn back in 2016 for a Dungeons & Dragons campaign I ran.
I drew her with Copic markers, fine line brush pens, and Strathmore sketchbook paper.
Today’s Throwback Thursday is going to reveal how much of an absolute hipster I am. Because here’s why I drew Phoenix from X-Men:
I’ve never read the comics that featured Phoenix. I only ever saw X-Men 3 for context for who Phoenix is. (And looking back on it, X-Men 3 wasn’t that good).
I drew Phoenix because of the aesthetic.
I wanted to play around with shadows and light on a superhero figure, and this sketch was the result. This was drawn back in 2013, so I’ve improved since then.
But yep – I’m a freakin’ hipster. Only hipsters would draw a character because they looked cool, not because of anything actually pertaining to the character.
So please forgive 2013 me.
Still, I wanted to share this so a) you could learn from my mistake, and b) because I’m actually pretty pleased with how this sketch came out.
If I ever do a redraw of this, I would change the character to someone whom I actually know and like.
Today’s Throwback Thursday features Claire and Tracy.
These two starred in a story called Traveler’s Road. Unfortunately, the project has been shelved, and probably indefinitely, by the looks of it.
Why? Well, no matter how many chapter I wrote for the thing, they never came out right. So, the project is shelved.
Still, some good art came from it. Like this piece.
And now this is available as a hi-res download on Patreon and Ko-Fi.
This will likely be the last hi-res download on Ko-Fi, because it will be for written works only moving forward.
I promised more Charlie sketches a while ago. And I found one in the old sketchbook bin.
Honestly, I loved drawing Charlie in action poses. I haven’t drawn things like this for a long while. I should get back into it.
I drew her in this outfit because I wanted something that looked sleek yet unobtrusive for martial arts moves. She’s a Tae Kwon Do practitioner, after all.
And now she’s available as a digital download! Check it out on Patreon or Ko-Fi. The original sketch will be listed on Storenvy soon.
