Since I was never able to attend my high school senior art showcase, I went all out for this one!! Check the RCAD Senior Thesis section for more information about the construction of this project and what it's all about.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to attend this gallery showcase either due to how rigorous thesis was. However, I've wanted to submit a piece of mine into the Madeby Gallery since 2022, and I'm happy to say in 2026 I did so! I'm currently trying to look for pictures of this gallery showcase so I can archive it here.
In 2025 and 2026, I submitted my sketchbooks to the RCAD sketchbook library, which was perfect because I LOVE drawing traditionally! (Left image is 2025's sketchbook, right image is the 2026 sketchbook.)
Not technically a gallery piece, but there was a showcase at the end of the spring semester in 2025, plus my character is hanging in the counseling center on campus. I wish I could've submitted to this zine in 2024 and 2026 because it was fun (I got swamped with work and thesis,) but at least I got my art in one!
When I was enrolled in Interlochen, the senior showcase I was in was unfortunately canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. As of now, I am unable to locate any photos of the event, but am searching through my archive. The showcase depicted these two characters, Ruby and Tizzy, made in MS Paint.
As a last minute decision, I submitted some art from my senior thesis, my fursona, and some of my original characters into the Anthrocon official booklet! I'm very happy I did, because my art got published. It's so cool to have my art be in the official conbook!! My art can be seen on pages 30, 39, and 51.
Attending this convention was a very last minute decision for me. But, I had been wanting to come check it out since it was first announced because it was a short drive from where I used to live when I lived in Florida! I loved LPS as a kid, and rushed to create LPS art solely for this convention when I got accepted. The convention was held on Friday July 24th, 2026, and I moved about 1,200 miles only three days later.
It was a bit of a last minute decision to come to the Artist Alley at Anthrocon this year solely because I was in the middle of picking up and moving houses again. This is the reason for a bit of a sparse setup, as for the first time, I flew to Anthrocon, and was unsure of what I would be able to bring on the plane with me. I am happy and lucky I was able to vend this year!! (Left: July 3rd, 2026; Right: July 5th, 2026)
Anthrocon was the convention that made me realize that furry isn't just an online community. I've wanted to go since 2016, and if you told me ten years ago that I'd be vending at one of the biggest conventions full of weirdos like me, I wouldn't believe you! Vended in 2025. (Day one of artist's alley is on the left (July 4th, 2025), day two is on the right (July 6th, 2025.))
The first time I ever vended at a convention was at Furry Weekend Atlanta in 2025. It was the convention that made me realize that I could make a living off of my extreme passion for art!! (Day one (May 9th, 2025) is the left image, day two (May 11th, 2025) is the right image.)
During my time at Ringling, I had the opportunity to participate in some artist alley events! Here were the table set ups I had in April 2025 (left) and October 2025 (right)
I feel like I learned a lot with these events, and they prepared me for future artist events!
