Today I saw a baby triceratops fossil and maybe I cried, maybe it was my allergies, and what of it?

How strange it is, for a quiet Friday afternoon of chronic health issues with a storm looming outside the window, to also be the time you take another step on a journey you once thought would only be a dream. #manuscriptsubmission #artwriter #paperart #sciart

Friends/family I haven’t seen in a while have begun to greet me with “I saw this article/photo/museum about dinosaurs/bugs/odd nature fact, and was thinking about you…”

Where were you during the cicada bumper crop emergence in 2024? I sadly didn’t see many, but I created a whole Cicada Brood collection of paper originals to celebrate. :) Most have flown to new homes since then, but a couple are still available!

I know plenty of folks get Seasonal Affective Disorder this time of year with the fading light and the mixed emotions that the holidays can bring up, so this hopecore dinosaur skull illo is here to remind you that endings are beginnings, too, and life *always* finds a way.

Horses fit spooky season perfectly, IMO. They’re beautiful but also just SO ODD if you think about them too long. They have one big toe? They spook at invisible things? Some still grow canine teeth?
Anyway, this paper jawbone is from a radioactive Hagerman horse fossil!

Ok, little free library, but it’s nature trinkets, and it’s at my booth for events, and we all trade trinkets.
Are we into this?

My camera wouldn’t focus properly so I’m so sad you won’t be able to see just how ROUND this lil one who hung out with me while working on the porch yesterday was.
Absolutely SPHERICAL.

Big thank you to everyone who stopped by last week at the Craft Fair of the Southern Highlands! Sorry for not posting more, I was there for a Good Time™️ but my allergies and asthma made sure my lungs didn’t get the memo.
So that’s why I hadn’t been real chatty online or IRL.

Been taking it slow after the Craft Fair of the Southern Highlands last week, and finally getting into some fall activities (drinking chai cider and enjoying the cool air on my porch while I pack Vampire Bat goodies for the Patreon and Happy Mail Club members).

So thrilled and filled with love to see folks out today. Raise your voices!
If you, like me, can't make it out today? I see you. There are many ways to fight. It can't always be with our bodies.
We will win, because we are know what is right and what we are fighting for. We fight for each other.

Help! It’s the third day now of my National Fossil Day Sale, usually really popular; but I haven’t seen any orders come in.
If you’ve looked at my shop recently, could you tell me if something is wrong? Can’t look into it like usual since I’m traveling! Thanks!

For the first time in MONTHS, new paper entomology art is fluttering off my worktable!
This batch of moths, including these Caletta Silkmoths, are inspired by the hues of harvest, spookiness, and the contrasts of bright foliage against crisp cloudless skies. Coming to my online shop this Friday!
