I have just recently joined tumblr looking for a slower paced scrolling form and I was immediately hooked by your whole account. Your art is amazing and has greatly inspired me. I love to do breakdowns/studies on different artists and then attempting to emulate their style and was wondering- How do you feel about people drawing inspiration from your work for their own?

I do that a lot, too; it's such a great way to learn what makes a style tick. This is a blanket statement to any other artists who follow me—please feel free to do this, and absolutely show me what you make! Style studies are a really amazing tool. Also, I'm so glad to hear this!! Love your collage work :)

An informational comic I drew last year for my Comics 2 class, reposting it to my new account (had to jump ship from the old one unfortunately) with some minor grammar changes and learned my lesson in adding watermarks! Happy early pride :)

I'm so happy to help!!! Truly if you ever have more questions feel free to hit me up and we can chat, I love sharing all the nonsense I've learned over the years!!

My partner just bought a print of your starlings and plums - I’m really impressed by how vibrant the colors are - how do you make your prints?

All of my prints are giclee prints on archival matte paper! Printing nerd stuff below but that's the short answer 😊

Giclee is a very hi-res ink-based printing process using a special printer, giving you a really incredible depth of color and a ton of accuracy. They're really expensive to have, and I'm a very small business (i.e. it's just me over here) so I get my prints made by Giclee Today, who are based in Pennsylvania and are wonderful to work with.

To get the colors as accurate to the original painting as possible, I scan my work, often in pieces, and then piece them together in photoshop and color-correct to account for any scanning weirdness. When I do this, I've got the painting next to me and I'm constantly comparing between the two to keep my colors crisp and clear and accurate.

that's probably more info than you wanted but I love this stuff and I work really, really hard to make sure my prints are high-quality, so it's fun to talk about it!! I'm glad y'all like the print ✨

just some shitposts i've been saving up to buy something nice

but what is it trying to say..........

reblogging to add another layer of print nerd: there are pigments I use in my paintings that simply do not scan well, particularly cobalt turquoise, patina (a super deep green), and a bright fluorescent pink called opera. I have to do a lot of very careful correcting to bring them back to life in the prints, and it's been really fun to find out what scans well and what doesn't, and see that the originals really will always be their own special thing compared to the prints!
