490 #breakfastandacomic read #IFeelAwfulThanks @larapickle.bsky.social #womenshistorymonth loved it, it is more than a comic, it is a way to introduce therapy to those who have anxiety/depression & show that you are not alone. Well illustrated & written, highly recommend this. #angeliquelovescomics

What if I told you that I've created a fake fashion magazine...but with my art?

If you like my work and want to support me, please consider buying a digital copy of the Mockazine, a fake Vogue-like zine encompassing some of my work in the last 5-6 years!

Find it here: larapickle.gumroad.com

First drawing of 2025! 💕 - Tried the new Wacom Movink for this, and it was fun!
Still trying to get the gist of working on a laptop, but it’s very fun to be able to not be ankles to my desk all the time.

A new version of this drawing I did ages ago of Jennie but composed into a Harper's Bazaar magazine cover!

What do you think?? Which one do you prefer? :D

I want to do more social media content but I've been feeling so low and tired, so it's been hard to be positive about anyone wanting to hear me out, and my body dysmorphia also attacked so it's been hard to see myself on camera, especially full body shots u__u

A bit of a late post for Valentine's Day gut guys, 2025 did not start in the best way for me, and I've been trying to keep my mood and prioritise my mental health!

This will come with a making off too, as I want to record myself working on it while I tell you a bit about this area! ⌞ 🎞️⋆｡˚₊⌝

Last year I wanted to start a little series of illustrations based on my travel to Korea in 2023 but had to stop due to life reasons!
I want to get back to it now, and I'll start by picking up this wip of the port of Busan!
