if you didn't know, i'm a big fan of


so, safe to say, i was delighted when she accepted my mini reference commission.
i want to make a few notes as to why i love this so much.

1. the artist did so good in making jesse look... well, her actual ethnicity, which is afro-japanese. i love the eyes so much.
2. the alternate hair. i love it. i love it so much.
3. key items.
- jesse's a gum chewer, hubba bubba is bae.
- so is watermelon (her favorite fruit) and doritoes (her favorite junk food; a chip lover).
- her wooden louisville slugger is her baby.
- that precious stuffed doggo is from her teenage years. she sleeps with it still, yeah.

i'm just head over heels with this piece, tbh.

(when will i upload the other buttload of art i'm hoarding? the world may never know.)
