‘As the portal calls to her, she peers intently and with a sparkle bubbling within… a keen curiosity of unfathomable adventure which lies just a few steps ahead. 

Girl From the Forest Floor is as excited as she is a bit afraid, but she is brave and she is accompanied by Shumi Mushrumi the Mushroom Spirit - hitching a ride in her satchel and the ever present ghostly guardian, Aughostus, by her side. Their presence adds a feeling of safety which fortifies her courage.’


This digital artwork serves to not only continue story telling in MUMBOT WORLD, but also as another means of artistic exploration. Not only mixing mediums I’m familiar with, but also always pushing boundaries and exploring new tools & possibilities.


Visuals: Original sketch w/pencil & ink on paper / colored digitally + 2D animation in ProCreate & After Effects



Audio: Built a music mixer/sequencer UI w/AI code assistant to create the eerie synth, melodic motif with textured atmospheric ambience.
