All summer I've been working on opening my online shops again. It will range from downloadable templates to crocheted wearables. It won't make sense, but it will be totally me.

Trying something new - I've always wanted to design and illustrate book covers, but you can't get a job doing that unless you actually make something? And no one will just give you money for thinking about it a lot? Thanks to Bucky for being my unwitting ghost-dog model. I hope he dedicates his memoir to me. If you want to see the full image, it's posted on my blog (you know where the link is, right?). #bookcoverdesign

This is going to be a labor of love. Only in row 31 of 70-row chart. But finally seeing the cat faces makes it all worth it 😸 pattern: CatKnit sweater by @andrearangelknits 🧶 yarn: Kelbourne Woolens Perennial

Who needs a social life when you’re influenced to start a new knitting project? And it’s technically free yarn bc I already bought it, so it’s helping the economy and the environment ✨ pattern: The Wave Sweater by @spektakelstrik ✨ yarn: @lionbrandyarn Heartland

Hello, have some iPad sketchies 🌝 I don’t think I’ve ever met an artist that did not have an art-related new year resolution (me included). It’s either “create more art” or “say no to projects so I don’t burn out”. Has anyone ever experienced the desirable amount of art creation? #ipadart

“And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted—nevermore!”
The Fall of the House of Usher was superbly creepy and a creative interpretation of Edgar Allan Poe’s work. A good watch for the Halloween season 🕷️ #theraven

I think if I had procreate and iPads in high school, my art journey would have been very different. 🤔 then again, maybe not. #sailormoon

Trying to process everything that happened in September, I can hardly believe it’s half way through October already. In order: put an offer on a house, broke my foot, went to D23 for the first time, experienced Disneyland on a scooter, moved into house, and somehow made it out alive. Continuing to have a visceral reaction when I see a Home Depot moving box 📦

Working on finding my own art style…because part of having ADHD means my mind gets bored doing the same thing over and over again and I seek out new things to try…which means it’s hard for me to focus on one art style 🤦🏻‍♀️ so it feels like starting over, but I know there are colors and styles that I already gravitate towards. One good test is to build my own curated pencil collection 😅 ➡️ #adhdartist

My assistant for the day. He was great with the moral support, not great with picking out colors. I used #ritdye in Hyacinth for the oh-so-on-trend Very Peri #pantone color of the year. #yarndyerenthusiast #yarndyer #indiedyers #yarnaddict

📖 Currently reading “The Artist’s Way” by Julia Cameron. The first chapter encourages dedicating time for “artist dates” with yourself to nourish the creative soul (I think today it would translated to “self care”). I bought myself some flowers from Von’s and took pictures of my cat.

#FBF Still life oil painting from college. I remember very distinctly working for weeks on making the perfect color choices for my composition and then the teacher saying "Looks amazing. Now paint over it." And everyone in the class standing in silence, not sure if she was being serious. But she was being serious. This was the "Inspired by Matisse" lesson that we were not expecting. This is probably why I'm a big fan of using unexpected colors combinations in my work. #henrimatisse #painting #modernart #oilpainting #flashbackfriday

When I first became aware of Monsteras, I didn't think I would be able to 1.) keep one alive and 2.) Find a plant nursery in the bay area that sold them. SO I turned to the internet and found an Etsy seller in Florida that would ship them. I was still skeptical that it would survive shipping and bay area weather. 2 years later and I'm transplanting my Florida plant baby to a larger pot and a whole rooted section broke off and Beyonce was born. 20" x 16" acrylic on canvas "Beyonce" is now available in the shop!
