Hello! My name is

Shelly Rodriguez

Character artist, product designerI design cute things under the alias inki-Drop® &
figurative, serious subjects under the name Btwnskyandsea
I invite you to explore my portfolio

With 10+ years of convention experience, I am capable of filling a booth or tabletop display in a bright and appealing way despite size constraints.Please see the gallery below for more booth/table set-ups and product types.Please note: I will not bring stickers or other adhesive-backed items to events where they are banned. They will be replaced with an alternative product such as enamel pins or pin-back buttons.

inki-Drop® is my original character IP, started in 2012 with the character Crabapple®.Here you can find concepts, products & diagrams featuring over a dozen different original characters.

Please see below for a small gallery of finished work & respective work-in-progress videos for both my traditional & digital works.
