King Rat? Multi-eared king Rat? I somehow really struggled with this one. Some drawings really just reach a "fuck it" moment when you feel you've done all you can and just go with the last idea Just part of the process I suppose. I'm sure my feelings will change in the future.

I like how the color parts go from flat to isometric without a worry. I wish I was like those colors.

The collector. Another zine page that doesn't fit in a square. Though there might be some charm to this odd cropping.

Pretty happy with how this plant turned out. Still exploring the grayscale vs colorful styles. I'm not sure I'm convinced about the background pattern I designed it myself but it's not drawn by hand like everything else. What do you think?

When you meet that version of you that's full of color.

Rain cloud for a heart.

I'm working on a new zine. Full pages don't look great on instagram so this is cropped. But I'm excited about the overall look and the combination of monochromatic characters with looser lines with bright colors. #quaranzineFest #zinestagram #quaranzine #zinester #zine
