I genuinely love getting sketches from people commissioning me, they tell me so much in so few lines!! Here's a dragon I created for my friend Matt's in progress boardgame. <-- the ms paint reference vs. the finished artwork -->

I updated my Deep Space 9 is a Polycule artwork to correct my gravest mistake in the making of it: I didn't put Kira and Jadzia as Dating in the original.

an illustrated diagram titled "Deep Space 9 is about a polycule" depicting portraits of thirteen of the characters from Star Trek Deep Space 9 with various coloured lines showing their polycule relationships. For example, Quark and Grilka have "married" and "divorced" lines connecting them, while Kira Nerys is "Dating" Jadzia Dax, Odo, Keiko O'Brien and Miles O'Brien, and also "Co-parents" with Keiko and Miles.

I had the absolute loveliest review on my comic Nino recently!

A screenshot of a review posted on etsy.com on 27th April, for the product "Nino A5 Comic". Review reads: "I adored this comic, Nino is such a fun main character and I loved following her adventure! The story begins with the introduction of Nino as the smallest and youngest mage in the queen's advisory court. She wants to learn but doesn't fit in neatly with the other mages who discount her abilities due to her lack of experience. But suddenly they need Nino to save them! The art style is simply stunning; the colour scheme was beautiful. I laughed, I felt all warm and fuzzy, and I now officially want a pet dragon. This is my second comic from Izziillustrates and I have loved both of them. I would highly recommend you read this in gentle sunshine because it will make you feel magical."

A photograph of a comic book on a white background. The comic's title is NINO, in big pink letters, and the cover has a picture of a little girl and a dragon running from left to right across a pink background. The girl has long brown hair and light brown skin, is wearing blue and pink, and has a bag spilling over herbs and feathers. The dragon is small and orange and looking up at the girl with huge eyes.

OK I went and did the thing: my first two little sticker collection books are now up on my etsy! I went with these lovely marbled papers for covers because they reminded me of classic photo albums, matching coptic binding, and gold ribbon closures :) Find them here: www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4...

I've made myself a wee sticker collection book with greaseproof paper pages, so I can collect all the stickers I buy at conventions and art fairs in one place until I know where I want to use them 😊

I found one (1!) open spellbook pin that I hadn't counted, so it's briefly back in stock :) it has a tiny flaw in the enamel so it's a wee bit cheaper than originally, but there is only one, so if you want it, grab it!! 📚✨
