PokéFest (My first fanart project), Oakville, 2026

PokéFest 🎉✨

PokéFest is my first fan-art project, where I wanted to create fun, magical, and festival-inspired objects featuring Pokémon.

Which one is your favorite? 👀

Mine is the Gengar & Clefable gummies! 🍬💜

How to critique someone's art?🩵

🩵The Critique Formula

Strength + Problem + Solution = Improvement

💙 What works — Identify something the artist did well.

💜 What doesn’t — Point out what could be improved and why.

🩷 How to improve it — Give a practical solution they can try.

When we simply tell an artist that something is bad, compare their work to someone else's, or focus only on what went wrong, it can make them feel like all the time, effort, and studying they put into the piece went unnoticed.

I want critique to do the opposite.

I want artists to feel recognized for the work they've already put in, while also giving them the tools to grow. The weaker parts of a piece aren't something to be ashamed of—they're opportunities to learn and improve.

The goal of critique isn't to make someone dislike what they've created.

The goal is to help them love what they're creating even more—and give them a clearer path toward becoming the artist they want to be.

Can I get some feedback on this "Critique Formula"? 😁

Let's have fun and grow together!

Luigi's Mansion Portrait Sketch, OakvilleSketch, August 14th, 2026

I've always struggled with the likeness and accuracy. It's one of the hardest things to acquire. But most importantly did I do fine with our green friend Luigi? (Background doesn't matter)

I will start painting it and try to capture the amazing lighting next 💚

Sticky Elixir - The Legend of Zelda Illustration, OakvilleSketch, 2026

The Sticky Elixir from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Idont know why but I really have a fascination with these and all the color variations of the elixirs. Haha. I could almost just swap the colors and make a series of them. Haha, with that being said. I wish I could achieve a transparent look to the liquid. 🤔🩵

Monster Cake - The Legend of Zelda Illustration, OakvilleSketch, 2026

Monster Cake 😈

I tried to bring the "Monster Cake" from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild to life by adding some personality to it. I tried to aim for strong colors, watercolor texture, a fantasy feeling, and a secondary light for rim lighting and overall some character to this object. How does it feel to you?
