I almost wasn’t going to put together a summary of art for 2020, but I decided to anyway because despite everything that happened I managed to draw some pretty decent things!
2020 in particular was really difficult for me; I went through a breakup that unfortunately dragged on for 8 months and involved lawyers, and during that time period the COVID-19 pandemic also forced me to go into 3 months of isolation. That 3 month period of strict isolation included forcing me to work from home, spending my birthday (physically) alone, stopping all floor hockey league games, and having to deal with legal documents and procedures that could have been dealt with before the pandemic started.
I’m doing a lot better now mentally, but between all the shit that happened from the end of 2019 up to this point, art as a hobby for me took a huge step onto the backburner. I’m surprised I even had enough energy and motivation to even FINISH half of the pieces I drew in 2020
Either way, I’m glad people still enjoy my work; even if nowadays posts are few and far between because most of my energy is spent working (don’t get me wrong, I love my job), illustration will always be something I have a passion for!

☀️ Happy Golden Sunday! Continuing my trend of drawing Djinn for Golden Sunday, here are Geyser and Haze from Dark Dawn; size-by-side, they share quite a similar design, don’t you think?
The little stones scattered around the piece are tiny amethyst beads—I quite like using props like these when taking photographs of my traditional work, as they add a lot of flavour to the overall composition that scans can’t capture.
And if you’re wondering, “What’s Golden Sunday?” it’s an event that occurs every once in a while to celebrate the Golden Sun franchise! There’s also a Golden Sun Discord server if you’re interested in getting to know a bit more about the series, or if you’re already a Golden Sun fan c:

I was thinking about which Djinni in Golden Sun: Dark Dawn has the cutest design and after a lot of thought, decided that Breeze is the cutest Djinni in existence; don’t @ me
This was drawn completely on-stream on my Twitch channel! I took a few liberties with Breeze’s design, but I’m quite happy with how this turned out As the very last piece of art of 2019, I felt it was fitting to usher in the new decade with what I consider to be my current aesthetic: cute and fantastical!
I can never get enough of Dark Dawn’s cool designs (despite the game itself being kinda eh but hey, Golden Sun as a series is pretty great; NINTENDO PLZ REVIVE THIS IP). If you’re a Golden Sun fan or interested in seeing what the series is about, check out the r/GoldenSun Discord server!

Happy Golden Sunday! For the 3rd and final Golden Sunday of 2019, I decided to illustrate the Xmas card I’m going to be printing and sending to friends and family! May your day shine as brightly as the joy of these Djinn in stockings
This illustration also serves as my one singular contribution to Inktober, and my art piece for my Twitch playthrough of Golden Sun: The Lost Age! The top image is the scanned version, and the bottom image is a photograph of the original artwork.
Oh, and did you know that there’s a Golden Sun Discord server? A group of real cool peeps who enjoy all things under the sun (pun fully intended) and anything Golden Sun related, of course!

A 15 minute sketch of everyone’s favourite Venus Djinni, Flint! I drew this while balancing my sketchbook on my knee on a shaky bus ride lmao

The Djinn Tower: A fearsome combination of Djinni that just can’t seem to get along, no matter how you stack them.
This is a gift for one of the moderators on the r/GoldenSun Discord that’s been sitting on my to-do list for over two months! If you like Golden Sun, check out the Discord server; there’s a lot of cool peeps in there who share the same love for one of the greatest RPGs of all time on the GBA system

“The Venus Djinni Echo has become Felix’s pal!”
What’s this? Golden Sun fanart?! It’s #GoldenSunday! ☀️
Today marks the 16th anniversary of Golden Sun: The Lost Age, one of the most memorable games from my childhood. To this day Felix is still my favourite character; both he and the series deserve some love
Fun fact: I actually played TLA before the original Golden Sun because one of my relatives bought it for me for Christmas one year. Kid me didn’t know it was a sequel so I went through the entirety of TLA without any context lmao

My boyfriend asked me to draw a card for his dad’s 60th birthday literally maybe 3 or 4 days before his big birthday celebration so I kind of had to bust my ass to get this done in time, but I’m happy with how it turned out!
Turning 60 is considered a very important age in Asian culture because it means you’ve completed one full life cycle, and are about to begin another “new life”. Many people consider 60 to be a significant milestone also because it’s “the age” when people generally retire (but let’s be real who can retire at 60 now LMAO)
His dad is an Earth Pig, so I incorporated a lot of lucky elements in this:
- The number 8, represented as 8 Marguerite flowers (commonly known as the Paris Daisy)
- Lucky colours: yellow, gold, grey, and brown
- Personality strengths of the pig: warmhearted, gentle, generous
