Kyoot things are stuck on you! I have updated the shop with a bunch of new products recently and first amongst those items are several new sticker designs and two new t-shirts! I really loved the Stuck On You design with Coconut, so I have that in a sticker and a t-shirt. Coconut is hanging out on the back with a small 'Stuck [...]
Art Challenges are a great way to grow! Are you an artist? Are you looking to grow your skills? If so, I highly recommend trying one! This month I’ve been working on a challenge focusing on texture practice with my friend, Diane Do (Twosenseless on Twitch..check her out!!). Each day there is a new prompt of what texture to practice, everything from stone to lava to feathers! I am [...]
Happy New Year! I hope 2018 was a good one for you and that 2019 will be even better. It always surprises me how fast the year goes. Before you know it, it’ll be April and then May, and then half the year will have passed. It’s scary and exciting too, the onus of the future and all the things you can do with it. Ever since I started my dailies, I’ve had [...]
I hear something in the air...could it be...jingle bells? ;) It's hard to believe, but another Christmas season is upon us. Every year I find myself surprised at how fast the year has gone, and have to think back on what's been accomplished. One of the big things for me was finishing Illustrated ABC's. I feel like it happened much longer ago than it did. I began the project near the start [...]
It's that time of year again. With Inktober 2018 now in full swing, I thought it a good time to post some of my personal tips and tricks on how to get through a drawing challenge, especially if you are working through your first one. Before Starting This year I saw a lot of 'Inktober Prep' going on, which I thought was really good and clever. Some artists thumbnail their ideas for [...]
SDCC Merch is Online! This year at SDCC was an especially exciting one. I had more new designs at the booth than ever, Happi Paper's brand new redesigned plush got his debut, and the first of hopefully many BeKyoot children's books was shining bright. Now after all of the excitement has died down, I've had some time to regroup and put all of the new stuff up online. :) It's [...]
In just a few hours Preview Night will open at San Diego Comic Con 2018. I am so excited for everything that will be at this year's booth!

Happi Paper's redesigned plushie will be available in limited quantities. Please do stop by! :)
Drawn in 2018 Drawn in 201o Screencap of my sketches folder from 2016. 8 years separate these two drawings. There's quite a bit that can be crammed into 8 years. Truth be told, a lot of my learning and growth as an artist has happened within the last 900 days. I made a commitment to my art, myself, and my business to make a new drawing every [...]
It's that time of year again! San Diego Comic Con is coming up in the next few days and we are heading out to bring all the kyoot! Feel free to save the booth menu to your phone! This is just a sample some of the awesome new products I'll have there! The Cupcake Momocheet enamel pin has very limited numbers so pick that one up quick if you want one! :) The Evil [...]

It is packed full of digital as well as traditional sketches and will be arriving just in time for Akon and also SDCC in July! I was so excited when I got the proof in the mail. There's not an easy way to describe something you've [...]
Wow! Two months are already gone in 2017! What have you accomplished on your list so far? After a couple bumps in the road, I am back to trucking through mine. I'm set to begin the BeKyoot site rebuild this month as well as start work on the sketchbook/artbook I'll have ready for SDCC. I am hooping to also sneak a BeKyoot illustrated ABC's book in there as well! :) You can follow my [...]
