ava || 26 || they/them

Hello! I'm Ava otherwise known as avaciil. I'm an LGBTQIA+ neurodivergent artist that likes to draw cute characters that are original and from anime or game series that I personally enjoy. I sell a variety of fanmerch such as prints, charms, and stickers at in-person conventions and online on Etsy/Ko-fi! On top of being an artist, I'm also a bunny vtuber on Twitch with chill, comfy/cozy vibes with a sprinkle of cochina. I'm a variety streamer that leans more towards playing survival/horror games, as well open-world RPGs, sandbox, and FPS.Thanks for dropping by my website!

F.A.Q.

- Where is your username from?
my username comes from "ava" and "ciel" (sky in french). i used to get "ie" and "ei" mixed up, so i just remedied that by putting two i's (smart right!?!?!). also i think i had a habit of putting any two of the same letter together within my previous usernames, so i wanted to continue the trend. and no, my username is not associated with or inspired by a music artist.- What's with the rabbit?
the rabbit is based off a character i made when i used to needle-felt. i got those daiso packs that gave you colors and i played around with it and wow! i made a cute lil bunny. i didn't give the bunny any arms cause i got lazy (and totally didn't run out of material). i did make it a mascot briefly, but never formally represented the bunny outside of cards featuring my commission info in 2017. anyways they're back and now they're my brand mascot.- When/What's your next event?
keep track of my instagram for updates on cons i'm planning on going to! i also try to do my best to update in the catalogue page- Will you restock XXX?
if it's within my interest to do so! you're free to inquire about specific products through my etsy or my email.- What do you use to draw?
procreate on the ipad pro 11 (1st gen) & apple pen (2nd gen). i make adjustments and/or color corrections on clips studio paint/adobe photoshop cs6. to livestream art, i use reflector 4.

About Me

Hello! I'm Ava otherwise known as avaciil. I'm an LGBTQIA+ artist based in San Diego, California. I specialize in character art and illustrations. I draw characters that are original and from game series and anime that I personally enjoy! Some fandoms include Fromsoft games (Dark souls, Elden Ring, Bloodborne, etc.), gacha games (Arknights, Hoyoverse), Resident Evil, and more. I sell a variety of fanmerch such as charms, pins, prints, and stickers at conventions and online. I started my store at the beginning of 2023 and started tabling that October. I'm constantly striving to improve and expand my store. On top of being an artist, I'm also a variety streamer on Twitch as an animated bunny Vtuber. I have made many custom assets for other streamers and content creators.Thanks for taking the time to check out my portfolio! You can find my online storefront here.

Disclaimer: The below portfolio is geared towards my storefront and convention set-up. I have additional artwork that displays my digital work format better here.
