HAPPY HANSIVERSARY!

I cannot believe I've been making this weird little story for ten years officially today, but I know I wouldn't be who I am today if I hadn't taken that leap in 2015. Thank you to everyone who's joined me along the way!

fuck it, finished rug pics (still waiting on hanging stuff so i can put it on the wall). 2.5x5 ft, took me six months
a picture of a finished latch hook rug, made of various shades and textures of green yarn to look like a mossy forest floor. it's bigger than the table it's resting on. another picture of the mossy-looking rug, this time with my hand attempting to hold it out so everyone can see it's bigger than the table. it's huge.

It's been quiet on the art front this summer because: 1) I'm currently conducting a very unexpected, last-minute move, 2) I'm planning a really complex new class that's eating up all of my time, and 3) sleepy. Hopefully I'll be able to crawl back in the comics saddle once things settle down!

Love to draw tiny
Under a faint yellow light, I hold open a very small sketchbook, which is next to the pen I used inside the sketchbook. There is a small drawing of a witch and her black cat inside it. An old witch with puffy white hair in a crinkly, conical brimmed hat stands over a black cat with a curvy tail.
