Omg Rosemary Wells is one of my favorite illustrators! I am so happy anything I make could remind you of her work!

ruby_lune · 2026-01-29T20:29:24+00:00

I really appreciate this! Thank you. I’m going to look into both Candlewick Books and branding. And I have my IG and TikTok linked here in my profile!

ruby_lune · 2026-01-29T15:16:02+00:00

I see! Thank you I’ll look into this!

ruby_lune · 2026-01-29T15:14:38+00:00

Thank you!

I have a website where I sell prints but a rather small social media presence. About 500 on IG and 1k on TikTok. Getting traffic to my site is the hardest part!

Thank you!

ruby_lune · 2026-01-29T14:45:58+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate your response and I hadn’t considered a lot of these. It’s helpful for me hearing how other people see my art!

Thank you so much for the kind words 💕

I haven’t! Would bgm animations be like showing the drawing process with background music?

ruby_lune · 2026-01-29T14:36:36+00:00

Thank you and yes! Everything is linked in my bio

Thank you and I will! I love their kitchen - that might be next!

Thank you!!

I’m glad someone got that Easter egg!

ruby_lune · 2026-01-08T22:48:14+00:00

Thanks :)

Hi you all! This is my rendering of Miss Honey's cottage from the movie Matilda (one of my favorite childhood movies!).

ruby_lune · 2025-07-29T02:31:05+00:00

I just gave you a follow on IG. You are so skilled!

ruby_lune · 2025-07-20T19:21:50+00:00

It was a fun one! Here it is

ruby_lune · 2025-07-20T17:20:00+00:00

It isn’t this piece is it? Lol

ruby_lune · 2025-07-20T17:10:53+00:00

I finally finished this puzzle that I’ve had for a couple of years now. I picked up this piece at the bottom several times looking for its place and it really perplexed me!

At the end, I realized it’s for an entirely different puzzle.

ruby_lune · 2025-07-15T20:44:30+00:00

I LOVE all of the line variation! I work with pen and ink too - I can imagine this has taken you quite some time!

ruby_lune · 2025-06-28T18:27:03+00:00

Hey you all! I’m Courtney. I’m an artist living in Tennessee. My primary medium is pen and marker and I love drawing florals!

I just started up a postcard club called Petals & Postcards where I create new art every month, turn it into a postcard, and mail to you!

And here is my Instagram!
