Some Excerpts

I've been a fanartist for a long time, in a lot of different fandoms, whice gave me a chance to play with multiple styles - comicbook, realism, cartoony & more. I got into Supernatural right at S1 and loved it. Since then, the series has taken a backseat in my fandom space, but I still enjoy drawing the Winchester boys. That said, my SPN art is all Sam and Dean (or Jsquared), but I do like the other characters as well.

I have to say - I really love how welcoming the SPN fandom is to hand-drawn fanart. Generally, I find media-based fandoms to be uninterested in fanart that's hand-drawn (for obvious reasons, given that the fandoms are so visual); but Supernatural has always been receptive to fanartists pushing the boundaries of media fanart - comics strips, chibis, portraits, cartoony, stylised...such a thriving fanart community. Thank you! Please feel free to ask me anything about my fanart on SPN or otherwise! I love sharing techniques, tips, tricks and shortcuts. LOVE IT. NO REALLY.
