Anonymous asked: You have a beautiful style! Would it be ok to ask what tools you use to make things?

Hey thanks!

I draw in Clip Studio Paint on an XP-Pen Artist 22E pen monitor, a cheaper Cintiq alternative. It’s not perfect but I’m happy with it, overall. It’s the biggest change since the last time someone asked this question. I’ve also gotten a desktop computer, now, no more balancing my laptop on a stack of books…

Even though 99% of my work is done digitally, I like having a paper sketchbook and HB2 pencil for note-taking and sketching. I bought myself a Midori Traveler’s Notebook last summer. It’s a beautiful object but the paper size is too narrow for comfortable drawing. Their MD Cotton Notebook is larger, but also completely white so I feel bad lugging it around, getting it all dirty and scuffed. I’ll likely end up with a Moleskine again. 

Thanks for asking!
