I'm a freelance artist who specializes in character design and surreal human-centric art.
About
Hi! I'm Aspen. I'm an independent artist living in Colorado.
I make art in all sorts of mediums, both physical and digital, and I also dabble in jewelry making on occasion. I typically use Clip Studio Paint for my digital works, and physically I lean towards acrylics and watercolors.
This website acts as a hub for examples of my work as well as links to other online places I am active. I'm going to add to it soon with more information about how you can purchase my art and generally support me!
Thank you for checking out my about page and for taking interest in my creative endeavors!
Prior work experience + Education:
Showed photography in a gallery through the Pablove Shutterbugs.
Art director intern for Out Boulder's Youth dance. I did advertisement, floor planning, and decoration work.
Also assisted in shirt design graphics for Out Boulder pride shirts in 2019.
Contributor to Eclipse: a fan zine in 2020. A zine for Intermission characters in Homestuck, along with those in Problem Sleuth.
Contributor to Great At Zine, an Epithet Erased zine in 2020. I also participated in the sequel zine, Great At Zine: Plushies & Vacation in 2022. I made a full art piece as well as merchandise for both issues.
Eldritch Tree? Changeling Branch?
Previously I've gone by the name "eldritchtree" which appears on some of my older art on this website. All of the art on this website was made by me, regardless of signature.Below I have some miscellaneous projects I worked on while going by eldritch tree that I am very proud of. Please check them out if you'd like!I also used changelingbranch as my website URL and signature for a while, but that was briefer.

Commission Info
I do character art commissions (Art of a pre-existing character, yours or fan art),
character design, comic pages, and simple animation.I also draw scenes/backgrounds, real or imagined.And I draw creatures/monsters and some animals.I don't feel specifically skilled with some subject matter and may decline commissions for it. I want you to get high quality art. I may recommend other artists to you for things outside of my skill set in this case.
Characters, Estimate Costs and Examples:
Prices listed are in USD. Cost may vary, and will be outlined in email correspondence.I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone who treats me or my inbox poorly.That being said, I will take all sincere commissions seriously, so long as it is not a bigoted or hateful request.
I'm Open to Drawing:
Pastel/glittery/cartoonish gore.
Injury and blood.
Monsters/monstrous characters. Some body horror.
I Will Not Draw:
Hateful art towards any race, minority, religion, gender identity or sexuality.
Excessive realistic gore. IE: Guts spilling out.
Excessively unsanitary subject matter.
The Commission Process:
The first step is to fill out and submit my commission form.
After you've done this I will email you questions about your commission so I'm certain of what you're looking for, and the price for the art piece you described in the form.
At this stage we can go back and forth if needed. We can adjust elements of your commission to adjust the price.
When you agree to the given price, I will send you an invoice.
After you pay the invoice I will start working on your commission and send you sketches via email to get your opinion on how it should look.
I may send you multiple in-progress pictures of your commission during the process, either as updates or to ask for your opinion.
When the commission is done I will send you the high resolution file! Success! You've helped support an independent artist and gotten cool custom art as a result!
Note: I may use your commission to promote my skills. I will use a lower resolution version with a signature over it for promotions. If you are uncomfortable with this please let me know during our email correspondence.
Ko-Fi Collective Comic Commission Fund
Comics are some of the most beloved, yet least financially compensated forms of fan art out there. After all, paying for several pages of art, many days of work, and adjusting for the price of all the dedicated skills comic making requires, gets pretty costly.That's why I was inspired recently to make a Collective Comic Commission Fund. If you tip me through Ko-Fi and name that tip "fiddauthor fund" or "johnchurch fund" it'll go towards our total goal to realize this comic. That way, a shipping community can put a few bucks towards making a comic without an individual paying for the entire amount.Updates on comic progress will be posted on my Ko-Fi as the fund grows closer to completion. This is my way of showing my dedication to the project, as well as a way to reward donators more immediately, before the comic is complete.
Periodic updates will be made to this page about the comic funds available. I am not currently taking suggestions for future comic funds. Updates on fund fulfillment will be shown on Ko-Fi.These fan comics will be a minimum of eight pages long, expected to be ten pages. There is no maximum.
The comic will be released within two months of fund fulfillment. Any extenuating circumstances prolonging comic upload will be announced.
This fund goes towards the production of the comic itself. The time and skills going towards production. Once complete, it will be distributed digitally for free, accessible for everyone.
Current Comic Funds:
johnchurch: $0/$125, 0% complete
fiddauthor: $0/$125, 0% complete
Point by Point Instructions:
Go to my Ko-fi.
Donate any amount, adding the name of the fund you wish to support in the "Your message" section.
Check in regularly for updates.
Further Art Examples
All art on this page is made by me. Some drawings on this page feature characters designed by others, who are linked respectively in the drawings.
Art Fight Pieces
Art Fight is an annual art game. Artists upload characters they've designed to their portfolio, then look at the portfolios of others and draw their characters.I did not design any of the characters in the Art Fight section, but I did of course draw all the pieces here.You can see all my other Art Fight related work here along with additional information about the creators of these characters.
