Wow super cool to see the shots I boarded as gifs 🤩 The only one that’s not mine is the second to last one which was boarded by Jalin Harden!

Tomorrow’s my first day at a new job so it’s time to properly announce that I finished up at Marvel Animation a couple months ago. It’s been an INCREDIBLE journey working on Marvel’s Spider-Man and Marvel Rising over the last three and a half years! There are no words to describe how grateful I am that they took a chance on me and taught me everything I know about boarding. I’ve made wonderful memories with the crew that’ll be close to my heart forever. My life changed for the better since I started at Marvel and though I’m sad to leave, I’ll continue to grow and one day I’m sure I’ll be back better than ever!

PS Marvel Animation shows are now available on Disney+ so be sure check it out!

2018 aka the year I leveled up

Sorry I don’t have an art summary again since I didn’t draw much outside of work. My resolution last year was to rest more so whenever I had free time I just wanted to relax. So here’s another silly doodle of myself I drew a few months ago haha

2018 was definitely an improvement from 2017. Last year my cat, Kris, started getting sick more frequently with kidney insufficiency and then I started taking on freelance boards to help pay for her vet bills, which left me with little time to take care of myself. But now I’m more experienced and I have better control of the situation so it’s been a lot easier! Kris is doing great right now and I’m not as nervous about boarding so things are going smoothly.

Biggest accomplishment this year was I got promoted to storyboard artist on Marvel Rising around mid-June! When I first started on Rising, I expressed interested that I was hoping to get bumped up soon and my director was really supportive in mentoring me. It was definitely scary when I got my first handout but it’s been really exciting being able to have complete freedom on how I want to interpret these characters. I had fun on Rising but soon I’ll be moving onto another Marvel project. I can’t say what it is yet but I’m just glad I get another year to draw more superheroes!! <3

Other accomplishments this year include getting a new car, traveling around Kyushu for the first time, and practicing self-care! 2018 has been great and I’m excited to see what I’ll achieve in the New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!
