Certified illustrator・Graphic designer・Character designer・Story writer

I’m Mary, a freelance self-taught multi-fandom artist, specialized and certified in illustration, graphic design, and character design.
I mainly create original characters, personal artwork, and fanart. I open monthly commissions to support my small independent art business.
My style blends traditional and digital techniques into a personal anime-inspired aesthetic. For certain projects, like Kingdom Hearts-related works, I may ''emulate'' Tetsuya Nomura’s art style when requested.

✦ I am sharing-friendly and I welcome doubles!
However, about the characters marked as “Selective,” it means I am generally open to sharing, but with caution. I prefer to share those with friends or people I trust and feel comfortable with, where mutual respect is present.
If I notice toxic behavior towards me, my ships, or my OCs, I will immediately distance myself and/or block, regardless of the relationship we may have had.
Be respectful.✦ If you are strictly non-sharing and feel uncomfortable, do not hesitate to block me. Your comfort matters!✦ I do not consider myself or my ships as “yume,” nor do I self-ship with fictional characters.
I simply ship canon characters with my original characters, or create OCxOC ships, depending on the story I am writing.

✦ OC x CANON only
⋆ Kingdom Hearts: Axel/Lea (selective), Saix/Isa (selective)
⋆ Mashle: Dot Barrett
⋆ Mob Psycho 100: Suzuki Shō
⋆ Sonic the Hedgehog: Shadow the Hedgehog

Keep distance and do not interact if:

You are disrespectful towards opinions, tastes, personal work, or anything related. Please offer reciprocal respect and do not behave rudely. If you have an issue, communicate it.
You support NFTs, AI ''art'', and AI ''art'' training.
You behave in racist, stalker-like, manipulative, envious, or insulting ways. Blatant hypocrisy and incoherent behavior are also not tolerated.
You force or fake friendship.
You engage in excessive flattery (footlicking) with the intention of taking advantage or art-digging.
You show competitive tendencies and compare or insult others’ art or creations (whether publicly or behind their backs) out of envy or by your insecurity.
You are clearly not interested in or do not like my work, yet choose to stay around for negativity. If my content is not for you, simply ignore, unfollow, or block without spreading hate, misinformation, or unfounded rumors. Do not remain just to gather ideas, concepts, or information for yourself or others.
You attempt to intentionally damage someone’s reputation out of envy, insecurity, or because you are not able to acknowledge your own mistakes. Twisting narratives, projecting your behavior onto others, or playing the victim when you are clearly at fault is a sign of immaturity.
You tend to act out of spite, mostly towards someone who who has done nothing to you.
You make rude assumptions about others over things they didn't do.
You give unwanted criticism, make assumptions about the artist or their work, or create personal headcanons about them without asking first if they're right or wrong.
You fail to admit and credit drawing bases, obvious inspiration sources, re-uploaded fanart, or commissioned pieces.
You copy or trace art without permission and without credit, then claim it as your own. Be inspired and let the original artist know it.
You gatekeep or claim ownership over a public canon character or a ship (whether CCxCC or OCxCC), and attempt to discourage others out of jealousy or hidden resentment. Such behavior is toxic, disrespectful, and childish. I am personally comfortable sharing characters in ships, as long as there is mutual respect. This does not apply to strict non-sharing shippers. However, if mutual respect is absent even in that context, this boundary will apply.
You tend to rush artwork after requesting a commission or art trade. Art requires time, and we all have private lives. Please be patient. Art is my full-time freelance job, and I never forget a client’s piece. If you require a deadline, simply discuss it with me in advance so we can arrange it properly.

Side note
If one or more of the behaviors listed above are discovered, there will be consequences for those actions. I apologize if this may sound strict, but some of these points are detailed for a reason. I have personally experienced such harmful situations multiple times and have been deeply affected by them, so I will not allow the same patterns to repeat. Please respect people and their boundaries. Thank you for reading!

Extra disclaimer:

✦ Reservations for future commission waves can be requested privately. I usually accept them unless there is an issue.

⋆ 3 days to reply with the references
⋆ 5 days to make the payment
I cannot allow excessive delays, as commissions must be completed within the designated month.
If you do not respond, your name will remain on the list but be postponed indefinitely unless you cancel the request. Ghosting will be considered a cancellation, and the slot will be forfeited.
✦ [Not guaranteed] If all commissions for the month are completed earlier than expected, I may open an additional slot. Alternatively, I may begin the next wave earlier. Stay tuned if interested!
✦ I generally work daily. However, holidays or vacations may slow down progress due to a lack of time.
✦ Unless a deadline has been requested, I do not follow a strict commission order. I usually begin with the simpler pieces of the month first to maintain workflow efficiency and avoid delays.
✦ Limit per slot: 1 artwork.
Two artworks may be accepted only if both are simple requests (e.g., single or couple chibi + single headshot or bust with simple background).
✦ Baby characters added to a piece are considered non-complex additions and will not incur extra charges.
✦ I do not accept full restarts/complete redraws after the sketch has been sent or approved. Only minor changes and corrections are allowed. The same applies to final color adjustments once the piece is completed.
