Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Vin, and I draw whimsical stylized characters, flora, and fauna with a rainbow flair. I'm interested in hearing about streaming projects and illustration opportunities!

This is the sole reason why we almost never cover Nintendo games on Nintendo Classics for Fine Time. If Super R-Type and Solar Jetman are considered “weird” picks, then we’re in deep shit as a community
and also (maybe ironically?) people are so less inclined to check out retro games that aren't the big ones everyone's heard of lol

Learning, practicing, and researching new things is a truly valuable and enjoyable creative process 😌 Not only does it bring us the best results, but it also gives us true joy... Even in today's world, where everything is a 'shortcut'.

Art supplies fueled my imagination as crayon boxes’ sheer hue variety inspired me to experiment with rainbows. I also drew inspiration from NES/SNES games’ vibrant characters, and I soon wanted to draw the family’s flowers, too. My fascination with the possibilities of color persists to this day 🎨🌈🌸
With all this awful news going on i wanna ask this question once again to fellow artists and general creatives. What got YOU into art? what sparked that motivation to start writing? what made you wanna pick up a camera and start taking pics? Like share with us your reasons.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?

Mega Dimension makes me feel miserable and I just want to return to gouache painting, but I guess I need to stick it out and force myself to get through it before things inevitably get spoiled 😹
