Crafts and Creations

Instead of doing Magical March, I want to try and do Monster March. I don’t know if this art challenge already exists though, but that’s what I’m going to do. I want to try and do the Monster High characters and I choose Wydowna Spider as my first one. I also wanted to use my colored leads as much as I can before getting more colored leads (MORE COLORS).


This is from her official art profile and I’m also trying do to some pose studies as I go. I’m going to do a lot of sketches for a while, the only coloring will be some minor shading and coloring from the same color and if I do a bigger piece, that might not be for a long time and it’ll probably be digital (ish). And again, I was playing a bit with the lightings.

She was also for #feabruary but I finished her now. A personal OC, she’s more purple and pink than red. This is also a pose I got on google images. Two versions cuz I used different lighting settings. (Also too tired right now to write more 😂)

This was supposed to have been done for Faebruary, but I was moving and while I did sketch her and stuff, I never got around to really finishing her.


The new place I moved into, sine it’s really small, I’m going to do a lot of ‘finished’ sketches like this one, sketchy with colored parts and such. My new place doesn’t have space for me to do my usual art station setup. I also bought some colored leads so I was ITCHING to try them out and they are wonderful!!! They’re also erasable like actual black lead, so that was by far the best point! Courtesy of @kawaiipenshop


She’s a 'pixie’ I bought from @puripurr on DA. I changed her to a faerie with the power to control anything that’s blue-colored. The intensity of the blue correlates to power intensity as well. She prefers blue roses so the roses on her dress are usuable and can regrow after sometime, thus an infinite blue supply for her.


I attempted a profile because they’re one of my weak points and a personal goal of mine this year is to draw as much as possible and to work on my weak points. (Maybe some other things too, but they escape me at this moment)

An outfit from 12/2022 and I have no idea what it outfit was for. LOL I FORGOT THE PATTERN ON THE SWEATER DRESS 🤣🤷‍♀️


I suck with black shading, but I love how the greys came out. This is actually 2nd attempt at this pose, the previous one was done within the supposed outfit date.

More Christmas cards!!


~ Jie - Poinsettias and her cat.

~ Michael - Also poinsettias and I decided to do a thicker border this time.

~ Ralph - Those are all mistletoes ppl, MISTLETOES. I saw this really cool and cute design with like a hanging ornament and I wanted to incorporate it in with candles, and glowing rings.


The gifts along with these card were scarves and cowls that I knitted. The envelope you see with Jie’s card, I bought the stuff, but DIY-ed the envelope cuz I couldn’t find ones I liked and thought it’d be better this way.

Finally did a drawing if on of my outfits from before. I’ve always wanted to join the challenge, but legit procrastinated on it. Expect more cuz my sketchbook has like maybe 5 more? Give or take.


And that’s the day the outfit was taken, scroll down.

A ribbon bracelet that I made for a friend. Unfortunately I used plastic ribbons instead of the fabric ribbons, but this was good practice!! He said his wrist was 8" in circumference, my doofus ass did some kind of weirdass mental gymnastics and made it too big.


He choose a grey colour, a light blue (almost steel blue), and a bright orange. The small blue beads on the sides of the orange beads was a spur of the moment choice and I like it.

My first gifts of Christmas. He wanted me to call him by a different name when we first met, so there it is. It was tough thinking of designs even though the space was smaller, but I love how they came out; though the ‘Ralph’ one could have been better, the borders, some of it was on the fly. He likes shades of blue and light green.

The holy and poinsettias, you’ll probably see a repeat of them in some upcoming designs. The poinsettias are a challenge and fun to do, as were the pine leaves!!

I also made my usual kusudama origamis with them, but this time, I curled the 'leaves’ the other way as per an image I had seen before.

On a side note, I GOT TO USE MY WASHI TAPES AND WAX SEALS. LIKE THAT WAS FUN, WAX SEALING STUFF -screams in delight-
