Fans of Audity (aka Audrey Hopkins) know her for her jubilant energy, her explosive creativity, and her surprising illustrated mash-ups. Her character designs collide with unexpected inspiration points, like Pennywise and Tinkerbell, or her husband as a merman. And the results are digital drawings that are not only winsome but also inspiring followers (13.2 million on TikTok) to create kooky characters of their own.
Out of Vidcon 2026, Audity sat down with Mashable Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko for a Creator Playbook interview. Here, she revealed how she became a content creator, what she does when she’s hit an “art block,” and the dream project that could lure her away from TikTok for a bit.
“I love [Dropout] so much,” Audity shared, adding, “But Dimension 20, particularly. I want to draw the characters for a season of theirs. Honestly, I’ve told them before, I’ll do it for free.”
