PERSONAL PROJECTS

This pair of graphics were made to announce that I would be attending Anthrocon, the largest furry convention in the world that takes place in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania every 4th of July. The theme for the year's event was deep-sea exploration themed, so to tie into the theme, I used an art piece of Cobalt on an inflatable shark pool toy drawn by @DirgeServal on Twitter. The lower thirds of the piece feature a dark blue set of wave-like patterns that serve as the backdrop for the name, date and location of Anthrocon. Getting to play around with the shfiting perspectives of the text was super fun.

The second graphic was created after plans were set in stone for a handful of local friends to attend the convention with me. This graphic features each of our four fursonas within a square frame, each of which are pointed in their own separate directions revolving around the circular Anthrocon logo in the middle. Having the frame around the outside of the artwork feature the name, date and location of Anthrocon as well as #Anthrocon was a fun idea I came up with while designing the piece and I think rotating the text on the top to be upside-down like the two art pieces up there was fun.

I had the idea of turning an art piece of Cobalt the Husky drawn by DumbWeasel into an album cover-style poster in the summer of 2025. Around this time, I had been listening to Britney Spears' 2007 album Blackout quite a lot and I had taken a particular liking to the design and energy featured on the album's cover art, so I decided to attempt to re-create that look for this art piece, changing the reds, pinks and yellows of the Blackout album art to the blues, greens and oranges that make up Cobalt's color palette. The end result is an art piece with an aura that I can only describe as "intensely gay in all of the right ways".
