ashley ✩ fantasy + romance artist in nyc. i work backstage on broadway but look forward to making art my full time job one day. for now, i stream art + sometimes games when the degen hours strike. if you are looking for a place equal parts calm + chaos, you certainly have found it!
i'm ashley, a fantasy + romance artist living in new york city with my cat, nova. i make a lot of fanart and love working with authors to bring their characters and scenes to life.
i also work backstage on broadway, so it's tough to stick to much of a schedule with how demanding that job is. be sure to follow the channel or join discord to stay most up to date when i go live!
i primarily stream art but also love the sneaky ffxiv stream!
thanks for stopping by, and i hope you enjoy your stay!
the moon landing discord is a small but warm community built to support artists in their journey.
while lurkers and people who just want to hang out are so welcome (we have lots of channels to talk about books, movies, games, life, all sorts of things!!) -- please note:
if you are joining with the intent to share art, you MUST be willing to engage with your fellow artists.
too many discords are giant art dumps, and no one actually pauses to appreciate the gorgeous works shared. my art channel is a give and take, and anyone found being a bit selfish with their sharing will be reminded of the rules!
my mods + i reserve the rights to remove anyone from the discord.
18+ only.
consider supporting me with a patreon subscription! tiers start at $1.50 for general support; physical rewards begin at $9! print packs, stickers, sketch rewards -- lots and lots of goodies.
full timelapses + voiceovers also available!
monthly coloring pages start at just $3!
any support means the world to me!
