Happy #indieanimationday everyone! After some delay, the Tombmates animatic will be knocking on your door September 25th! Thea, Simone, and myself have gone through quite a few changes since I graduated, so I hope you'll enjoy this odd "so grounded it's underground" comedy 🦇

Merry Krismas to those who celebrate! I took one of those UTDR soul quizzes and realized I hadn't really drawn a genuine Light World Kris before; here's a take on #myvessel from #Deltarune ♥️

It's 2026. Draw that TTRPG scene that doesn't exist yet in the story! Fros and Tari here haven't danced together in canon, but that won't stop me from making cute visual fanfiction 💃🕺
Hey everyone! I just wanted to pass on the word that I've posted some new art related to a TTRPG campaign I'm on; the best place to find it is Insta and Tumblr. I learned more about digital painting and frog dissecting in the process, so here's a little sneak peek 💖
It's here, albeit severely broken on mobile (for now)! I've updated my portfolio site just in time for the new year: 💖 emmasewellart.neocities.org 💖
I'm currently updating my portfolio site by relearning HTML and glancing at Karina Farek's (awesome artist btw) for motivation,,, YEAH! I will also be a cool gal someday, Kariana Drawfé!

This past week, I've been working on a fun shot of President Mandy for the ongoing Billy and Mandy Underfist Reanimated Project; this part of the process was in rough animation territory, but I've made lots of progress since and can't wait to share it soon! 💀💖
Happy belated Global Cat Day to those who celebrate! It's been nice to hang out with my family cats post-grad, and like the figure on The Star tarot card I too have become their water bearer. Guess being an Aquarius comes in handy?
I've come to make an announcement: starting October 8th, I will be sharing my art processing and video gaming every Wednesday on Twitch! If you'd like to peek behind the curtain, now's your chance!
As July approaches, I'm here to say: I will be joining Artfight 2025...ay! I'll be operating under Team Crystals for the month, but I've already got stuff set up here for your perusal ✨ artfight.net/~Umbroelle
Did You Know? Last year, I worked on a collaborative animated short film called "Alien YU-RI", and it's available now for public viewing! It was seriously so fun to grow as a team and make something awesome ✨🛸🏳️🌈 ⬇️ Link Below ⬇️
Hi hi, it's been a second! I just wrapped up my thesis Tombmates (which I'm working on a release date for atm), so I think a reintroduction is in order ✨
It's dig deep for the bilbies time again! All donations made on March 27th will be doubled! Jax makes a cute bilby I think! No longer an invasive bunny he can help out the little guys in the meantime. donations.savethebilbyfund.org.au/digdeep2025/... | #tadc #bilby #bilbies #pvsart
Yippee yippee! I'm wrapping up the boards for my thesis, which leave editing aaaand...MARKETING WOO! I've started on the poster and uh,,, yeah it's going 🦇💖 (W.I.P)
While my thesis work is underway, I thought I'd share these pieces I made at the beginning of 2025 and 2024 to illustrate my goals for each year; I wanted to go with the flow before, but now I'm looking to keep my hope shining bright ✨
While my main deal is storyboards, I am a sucker for illustration and color work; both of these loves showed up in my character study work with Lego Monkie Kid's version of the Monkey King and the Six Eared Macaque! I still need to watch Season 5 this winter... #legomonkiekid #fanart #characterart
Casting is still in progress for my Tombmates thesis project and I'm currently working on whittling down auditions for Simone the vampire; I don't think I'll have a final decision by Monday's thesis proposal, but I can try lol 🦇💖
Hey y'all, I'm Em J, an ace storyboard artist (in both senses) and a digital illustrator with a love for the dramatic and whimsical! I'm currently developing my thesis "Tombmates". This Bluesky will be more focused on silly things, but my professional work can be found @ emjsewell.myportfolio.com 🌙
