I know I haven’t posted for a while, it’s hard to keep up with multiple social media sites and still function as a business.
Anyways, here’s some of my latest items currently available on my website if anyone is interested in supporting a small art business in this shopping lull! (link in bio).

I’m preparing for holiday markets coming up this weekend and next month, but it looks like I’m going to get rained on all weekend. Business has been getting worse for me the closer we get to the holidays. It’s like the more I try the worse it gets, but I’ll keep going bcs this is all I have left.

I made a Texas Firewheel Daisy Bookmark, it’s my personal favorite Texas wildflower.
Available now on my website, and I’ll be at two markets this weekend, If your in the Austin area you should come by and say hi, and pick up the perfect gift for book and wildflower lovers! 📚✨

The Frieran angle thing is so great because *every* artist knows that angle is tough. They've all been through it, learning the hard way how to do it.
To a non-artist it doesn't seem like a hard problem. A non-artist who only wants to be seen as an artist, will use genAI instead of learning it.

A closer look at one of Báez’s ciguapa figures, a feminine, dangerous, and seductive Dominican mythological creature.
I've seen her several times and thought she was crouched down in shallow water. Now it seems like she is riding a wave.
Truth was the bridge (or an emancipatory healing), 2024

I painted this half-asses sunset the other day, I like how it turned out, but the whole point was to chop it up into a bunch of little tags for my bookmarks and boxes.
I’m very pleased with how they turned out, and now people will know the design names while perusing my work, yay. 🧚🏻♀️✨

I wish I could afford to hire someone to deal with social media. I’ve never cared for it, I’m half introvert/half extrovert, I do better irl and I make the majority of my sales at live markets, but I need to promote my business online now and I can’t avoid it anymore. How do people do this for fun 😩

I thought this bookmark would sell a long time ago, it’s one of my favorites, but I guess it’s just me hahaha

I’m thinking about adding a small used book selection in my art shop, what do you think?
I’ve already had people ask to buy the display books I use for my handmade bookmarks, so I’m considering it.
