Profile
Hey there, I'm Lizzie! Currently based in Texas. I specialize in drawing cute illustrative critters and otherworldly ladies. A lot of my doodles are actually inspired by D&D campaigns. I'm passionate about pairing great organization with sleek graphic design and I can spend hours looking at subtle gradients. Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at my stuff!
