🕷 Happy Halloween 🕷

I haven't posted on social media for several months now. It's not that I haven't been productive but I've been quite busy and I had to take some time for myself because my cancer has become more aggressive.
Finished my first page of Inktober drawings, I am working on another project so I try to get these in when I can. All ballpoint pen, no pencil (hence mistakes oof!) #inktober #inktober2025 #artwork #art #inkart #ballpointpenart #sketching #drawing
I like that it‘s a slower pace, everything just feels so damn noisy.
Been a bit behind with sharing all the projects im working on, but was pretty proud of my little #inktober2025 drawing I did. Today’s prompt was “favorite tv show” and I went with Chris from “Everybody Hates Chris” #ballpointpen #ballpointpenart #artwork
My October newsletter dropped! This month I chat about how to find time for art during a busy work week. Also an interview with the Artist of the Month! It’s free to read! open.substack.com/pub/itsalitt... #art #originalart #illustration #arthelp #drawing #sketching

Made a rough concept sketch for my friends comic Maguro which you can check out on their Kickstarter. I’m a huge fan of mechs and robots so I had to draw some fan art. Not sure how to tackle this traditionally but imma try! Here’s their kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/jev... #comics
Love the detail! Reminds me of the Videogame Axiom Verge
(Updated date!) I’ll be teaching an intro to Colored Pencils class on 9/20 at 10-12pm at Mr Baker Bakery and Cafe in Rancho Cucamonga (Ca). Supplies provided!
P.S. No shipping on any items you purchase alongside this class, :) use code FreeShipClass during checkout
Only 6 spots open! #art #learnart
I alternate sitting and standing with a standing desk (manual one from IKEA). I take lots of breaks and stretch.
Started my first full time job recently, feel bamboozled hearing about this magical “9-5” my whole life while I’m doing 8-5. Now instead of working on my comic for an hour every morning, I gotta rush through my breakfast and get in 30 minutes and 30 minutes during my lunch! #firstworldproblems #art
My September newsletter dropped today! Talking about how to stay safe within the art community when things get messy. Also as always, a rad interview with a local artist of the month!

Hey artists! Quote with your purple art!
I’m glad you like the colors, just reminds me of Nickelodeons “Bump in the Night” character haha! I agree with the shading, I could have pushed it more but for a doodle I’m content.
Silly doodle I did recently, not very happy with the colors I went with but I think he’s a fun lil dude nonetheless #surreal #art #originalart #monsterart #surrealism #wierd #drawing
I’m on the 2nd draft of my comic Kitcool and Bohner. A big mistake I made was not having character sheets, which led to some really inconsistent characters. So I’m working backwards by going back and “fixing” everyone, better late than never I guess… #comics #art #originalart #originalcomic
Been writing a newsletter for a year now and every month I interviewed an artist as the “Artist of the Month”. Before I get to the next batch of randomly selected local artists, I invited everyone to do a final encore! It’s free to read (link below) open.substack.com/pub/itsalitt...
Completed this commission! Customer wanted a previous piece of mine with their pup. I made some improvements in my coloring this time around and I’m pretty pleased with it! #art #originalart #dogart #puppy #cutedog #coloredpencil
Working on a commission. I don’t normally draw dogs (except bull terriers) so it’s been a great challenge for me! #art #coloredpencil #originalart #artcommission #puppy #dogart
I like that sense of squishy, cloud-like movement
This motivated me to get on the #artfight train, my goal is next week!
