I’ve finally realized that the main reason I will always make art, post for a month and then never post again for years at a time, is because every time I put my art out online I overthink it like crazy. And then I stop making the things I want to make to draw something I think other people might like.
So this time I’m just going to draw and post whatever I want, whenever I want. Whatever weird obscure niche fan art that only I have interest in. Or bad sketches or original art that I decide to make for vibes alone that no one may ever see. So what if the content isn’t cohesive, or for long periods of time I only draw fanart for one fandom obsessively… I’m gonna do whatever I feel like >:)
¼ Poster designs for a gallery I was apart of in April! I was still getting the hang of optically balancing and placing type, or just typography in general. But still I really enjoy this one

After two years of intermittent labor, here it finally is! Thank you so much to everyone who has been following the progress of this getting made and for supporting me as I took on a project that kind of exploded in scale past what I initially planned haha.
Firstly, thank you to everyone involved in making Beetlejuice the Musical! I love it so much and this thing only happened because the source material is just so good. Consider this a send-off for the musical since it’ll be closing early next year. If you’re able to, y'all should really grab some tickets and see the show live! They’re also touring the show soon, so really there’s no excuse!! Go watch this show. It’s a joy and a labor of love.
Secondly, I feel it’s necessary to provide a small disclaimer. This project started out as a storyboard and ended up landing somewhere in between boards and animation. For sake of those who don’t know and maybe want to break into the animation industry, this level of polish, color, backgrounds, etc is ABSOLUTELY NOT what is expected or wanted from an actual professional storyboard. I put in the time and effort to give it this level of polish just for fun! And also because I know I’m not shipping it off to get animated. This is the final product and it’s something I just wanted to do for the hell of it because I love boarding and I love this musical.
Now that that’s out of the way, I just wanna give an extra thanks to Jeannette Arroyo and Amber Blade Jones for busting their asses to give this little project some of the most BEAUTIFUL backgrounds in the business. It elevated the level of this thing beyond anything I could’ve hoped for.
Thank you all again SO MUCH for watching! I hope you enjoy! =]
