i mostly prioritise character design, strange compositions and cluttered symbolism in my pieces. i exclusively draw in a pseudo-pixel art style, and i like to test the limits of typical art techniques in an aliased format.
a lot of my techniques are born from my own self-limitations as a disabled artist.
i use medibang paint for nearly everything, and very occasionally, clip studio paint or pencil2d. currently learning how to use blender.

writing…
i currently have two main 'finished' works. first is capillary locomotion, a 300-page experimental "anti-theatrical" play meant to flesh out the world of cold case simulacrum, another long term project of mine. it was written across 2023-early 2025. it can be read here through an itch.io download.
the second is UNRETROFIED, a small 2026 zine about a man who builds a machine to cut his own head off. this is an early iteration of a longer twine novel, and i'm only distributing it through print… for now.
i'm most at home with experimental, overcomplicated plots full of subversion and reflection. i align myself deeply with the principles of postmodernism.
i also do a lot of public character development, worldbuilding and lorewriting. most of this is sorted on my toyhou.se account, though i am trying to branch out to self-hosting on personal websites, as is the case with cold case simulacrum.
