Working on a new piece. When I make embroideries, I either am making them just to make them, or they’re gifts. This is the first one I’ve made that I plan to keep for myself. 💀🍷
@edwardunderhill had a dream about me being on a space mission to orbit earth and somehow managing to post plant pictures from space and I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone sum up my true nature so prettily. Floating in space with my plant babies 🚀🌌🌿
Do you remember this little self care guide? I’m really proud because I finally turned it into a zine! They’re not for sale yet but if folks wanna buy em I’ll set something up to do that. 🛁💕I’ve been having a hard time feeling good about my work lately but this comic is one that I feel consistently proud of, so it’s really nice to see it in physical form.
I need some kind of reframe about art. I can’t get out of this story in my head about being a failed artist because I don’t make or share work as often as I should. How do I have fun drawing again?
I love drawing the backs of people’s heads on public transit.
Things don’t mean what they mean. Don’t ask me to explain this; I don’t know what it is. I’m just grateful to be drawing.
Here’s the final product of an illustration for Out of System Transfer, a punk/folk band out of NYC who are rad in every sense of the word. Follow that link and you can download some tracks from them, 100% of the profits from which go toward The Center, an Orlando LGBTQ community center.

I DID IT, y’all. I made a store.
I’m using RedBubble, I’ll probably get on Society6 and maybe some other platforms in the future too. I haven’t totally figured out how the site works and there’s only five or so designs up so far, but this seemed like the right moment. I did it. I’m doing it. SO, if you’ve ever wanted to buy my artwork as a print (or a phone case, or a mug, or a scarf, or a pair of leggings??? the internet is weird), now you can!
