Over the years I redid Emily's portraits a few times as they had to be up to par with the rest of the artwork and all, and I recently redid them yet again. This time it should be the actual final art though!

It's summer! (shush, the "it starts on June 20th" crowd)
I decided to start a series of touhous in summer outfits. I won't be drawing all the characters, just the ones I can come up with a good design for. First one is Youmu. The ice cream that she can't eat is next to none!

making steady progress on merpworld. the end is a tangible, achievable distance away if i don't give up. not really sure how to market something so personal.
trying to make peace with this thing receiving more negative reviews than i am used to. art should be repulsive to some people.
