Q: Ive looooved your site and your ocs for sooo long eep :> what inspires you most with art n coming up with new ideas?!?

A: Hello and thank you! I guess I get inspired by everything I see, especially every day life. I come up with ideas randomly while going about my day, especially on long drives, working, and falling alseep. Usually when I'm bored my mind runs more and stuff pops up.
I also love browsing online for pictures from around the world. Tumblr, Pinterest, Instagram and Flicker have so many amazing photos that people share. I have an inspiration folder on my computer filled with thousands of images of outfits, house interiors, landscapes, and items.
But I also gather inspiration from what I find in the wild. Going on walks, checking out unique stores, especially second hand ones lead to new and interesting finds.

Q: i really like ur ocs!! how long have u had them??

A: The siblings I first thought of 3 years ago while I was in therapy school. (DECEMBER 17, 2019 was when I posted the first ever OC for Supermarket)
Originally, they were called the therapy boys and I initially made them to cope with my mental illnesses. Evan was based off of a sticker I put on my books of a smiley face flower. Ted was inspired by a small plush teddy bear keychain I took around with me. Chuck was made after I drew a creepy stick figure and Sam was actually based off of an "entitiy" I saw during sleep paralysis.
Then I made Killy as my new persona but she became more of her own seperate thing and then joining the therapy boys. Cookie really came out of no where when I suddenly wanted to design some random silly character.

Here are some of the very first designs of the characters!
