About me!

Hi! I'm Ashley, but I go by himawariness online. I'm a NYC-based artist! ^__^
As a little game dev, I've made two games so far-- Hansel and Dolchio-- and I'm working on a third called Case File: Poe!
I draw comics in my free time too! Mana Days is my current webcomic that I work on occasionally, but I'm also working on a few other secret comic ideas! >:]

If I'm not drawing or working on something, you can usually find me watching scary youtube videos or buried in some comic somewhere!

2024: Currently I'm actually trying to start my own little publishing company with my sister!!

About the site!

I made this site to have a healthy distance from social media! I know I don't have a huge social media presence to begin with since I know I don't post frequently on twitter or my other socials, but I felt like just thinking about having to keep my account alive to appease the algorithm somehow affects my creativity and makes me a little anxious of my art...
So I made this site to feel more comfortable for posting my art and actually writing down some personal thoughts! I haven't found an amazing place to post art yet, but I'm not sure I would want to move to another social media site. I just want to work on my stuff freely :]
I also just thought that having a personal site would be fun!
