I illustrate my own stories. Because I'm a giant nerd.

I'm writing a story about people with tattoos. I decided to illustrate the latest one I wrote about (though it looks a lot less like a tattoo and a lot more like a storybook illustration).

These things just happen, I swear.

Made in PowerPoint.

I don't know how on earth you use Powerpoint to create such lovely, subtle pictures! Colour me impressed by that as well as by the sweet art.

10 years of practice, new tools in the 2016 version, and a fundamental laziness about learning to make things in any other program, basically. PowerPoint is just easier for me that either Photoshop or Illustrator. Now, if I could only get high resolution outputs I'd be all set...

Awwwww. This is so precious. Also, I don’t think I’ve told you how much I’ve been enjoying this particular story. It’s really quite amazing.

Oh, thank you :) It's been a bit of a trial, so I'm ambivalent about it right now. I'm sure I'll mellow about it once it's finished.

It's a beautiful illustration and I know exactly who it is. :D
