My Bio
Hii there! I'm Michelle, a hobbyist comic artist. I love to draw and also make up stories: combine the two and you get my comics. I mainly focus on my Pokemon comic Distortion right now, which is still in progress. I've always dreamed of having my own finished comic, and I work towards that goal. It probably will take a long time before I truly finish it (the story is huge and university tends to keep me busy nowadays) but you surely are welcome to stay for the ride. :)

I draw mainly manga-ish style, but also sometimes go for a more realistic approach. :) As for my comics, I choose to go with the anime style because it takes less time to produce comics that way.

Also, you probably already noticed I really love Pokemon. Naturally I have a lot of Pokemon art in my gallery, including my comics.

I also have a lot of other interests though: playing the piano, singing and practicing karate are some of my favorite things to do nowadays.
(And I'm a sucker for puppies and kittens and anything cute too, by the way.)

The best thing about DA in my opinion is the interaction with the people on here. I love my watchers and all the friends I made on here. Don't be shy to talk to me, I'll most likely reply 9/10 times :)

Anyway I hope you enjoy my artwork and comics! :heart:

Here are some incredibly kind and awesome people:

Leaving DA

3 min read
Hi everyone, so you've not heard of me in a long ass time probably. Mostly it's due to personal irl serious health concerns which kept me away for years, but as things get better I actually went on to note some people that are dear to me and I was close with. Still, like the title says, I am going to leave DA. There are a few reasons but the biggest being that years ago as a teen I sometimes used to trace art and that's something I'm very ashamed of. At the time I thought of it as cutting corners, but as I got more serious with art I realise it really is a no go zone for artists and probably my own insecurity and laziness also made me do it at the time. Most of my art is actually still drawn by me and not traced at all, but I am going to start over on a completely clean slate in that regard so none of it's traced, none of that sprinkled in. I've improved so much in the years that I don't even feel like I need tracing period unlike how I felt about my art as a teen. I suppose I was

Update

0 min read
Hey y'all! I know I've recently been very inactive on DA and I figured I'd give you all an update. Honestly there's a lot of stuff going on in my real life as of now which prevents me from being here as much as I used to be. I'm not really gonna go into detail on that, it's not happy positive go lucky stuff and I don't want to crowd my DA with my rantings/crying about life/etc. I appreciate all the patience of people though and I hope the little I do update, you guys still enjoy. As for complete digital art... Well, I don't know if you guys have noticed, but I recently have uploaded mostly traditional lineart and colouring it digitally (wi

Hey y'all! As most of you guys know, my tablet is acting crazy recently. I can't really upload Distortion at the moment because of that, but I can do something else! I can just edit my traditional art in SAI and do an ''ask my characters'' type of thing with the characters of Distortion. It'll give you more insight to my characters and besides that I think it'll be fun. The reason I won't use my traditional art/edit it in SAI when it comes to Distortion itself, is because I'm afraid it'll clash too much with the other pages. Hope you guys understand and thanks for your patience! If you have any questions for my characters, leave them below t
