I am currently running a series on my Instagram page from October 1st all the way through Halloween, of the creepiest, spookiest, weirdest & halloweeniest wrestlers in TV history. All wrestlers are also available to purchase in my Society6 shop, with a bigger, 24-wrestler print being released at the end of the month. I'm working at a faster pace than usual for this series, but it's been turning out some of my favorite illustrations so far. Hope you guys like it!

Hey, mates! Got some new artwork up this week, and I hope to keep it flowing pretty steadily all throughout the summer. Also working on lots of new merchandise for the Society 6 shop including shirts, beach towels, pillows & bed sheets! What a time to be alive!
Also, I wanted to put this out there to anyone who may be reading and has some knowledge: I know next to nothing about conventions - comic, designer, or otherwise. Is there anyone out there willing to school me on the ins and outs? I'm thinking about applying for some of the smaller shows around the Northeast in the fall, and would love to chat about your experience, and also would love to meet anyone out there who's ever double-tapped one of my posts, or bought a print.
If you're so kind, I'm easy to find. Thanks!

I keep saying to myself that I am going to start illustrating more than just pro wrestlers, but I always end up coming back! I'm past the 1k mark in Instagram followers now, a personal goal of mine, so I might celebrate with a limited run of stickers for sale pretty soon.
I haven't been able to pump out too much work lately, as I've been focusing on taking some steps to change careers, and the nights after my office job have been devoted to that. I guarantee to have a few new characters done before Wrestlemania, though.
I actually have had the chance to do a few non-wrestling pieces lately, but some may never see the light of day. This is all still a learning process for me, but I'm happy that so many people have seemed to enjoy my work so far. Not even ONE negative comment in a year plus of doing this. That's pretty good in this anonymous trolling age we live in.
As always, commissions are available! I've had the opportunity to do some cool ones lately. Email me (donutglowgm@gmail.com) to discuss scope and price. And the online shop is always open, which you can find right here. If I don't get a chance to check back in before April, enjoy Wrestlemania season, and keep an eye on the @donutglow social media accounts for new artwork.
Adios,

Things change quickly. A few days ago, I posted about almost reaching 500 followers on Instagram, and by the end of that day, I was at 600+, now sitting at 700. Finn Balor, current WWE NXT Champion, and well renowned Lego fanatic, re-posted my illustration of him, which gave me a huge boost and led to a brief but pleasant conversation with him, and I'm in the process of sending him a few prints. My commissions started piling up, the online shop starting booming a bit, and everything's well at Donutglow HQ.
I'm glad people are enjoying the work, because sometimes you're not so sure. Before last October, I hadn't picked up a pencil in over a decade, so gaining a bit of traction and support in this last year has been a huge confidence booster to keep moving forward with my stupid drawings. Thank you all. Even the people who only post WWE memes, and ask me to draw them free logos.
So, business time. Sales still going on for the next few days (LINK TO SHOP):
11/29 Sunday at 1pm through 11/30 Monday at Midnight: 20% Off Everything & Free Shipping
12/1 Tuesday: $6 Off All Apparel & Free Shipping from 12am-12am PT
If you're interested in a commissioned piece by Christmas time, now is the time to set it up. My time is a bit limited, so email donutglowGM@gmail.com with what you're looking for, and I'll do my best to get it done for you in time.
Also, if I hit 1k on Instagram, I'm going to start printing up some stickers, so look out for those in the future.
Thanks again, everyone.

Thats a lot of money to be saved right there, yes it is. Click the SHOP link at the top of this page to pick up some artwork.
I hope people have been enjoying the wrestler characters I've been dropping this week. They're always a lot of fun to do, but don't produce a ton of revenue for me, so picking something up from the shop would make me very happy.
I am on track to hit 500 followers on Instagram later this week, and I'll probably write something up about that when it happens. It's been just over a year since I started drawing again so those 500 mean a lot to me. In the meantime, just try to have a great thanksgiving, k?
