I am Bug Edward Grimes (and that’s Tsuki) and I am a queer, disabled, post-midwest freelance creator based in PNW. Incredible to meet you, take a seat.★

I am first and foremost a traditional mix media artist typically with watercolor/gouache and any extra colors or tools I can add and scribble on until I am ultimately satisfied. I have been drawing/painting my whole life. I went professional around 2015 and jumped around outlets and professions here and there over the years slowly building up my work and presence simply just a person and artist while living as a survivor. I use my art as a coping skill and a way to heal. I try to have these moments of growth show through in my work and I channel these melancholy themes among bright, whimsical styles and subjects to show for the ones who are no longer around to see it.

Everything I create is created by me alone, and based out of my home studio. Its a lot of work but I love it this way. I have spent the past couple years applying time and immense care into my products and product quality.

I enjoy learning, nature, live music, anime/manga, fashion, snacks, storms, clouds, flowers, moss (to be more specific), the macabre, and the whimsical. I am simply a product of things that bring me joy. I hope I can do the same for you in my journey. Feel free to follow along at any of the links below. Thank you, you’re too kind ★
