I draw the cutthroat and cute; the whimsical and the war-like.
And I'll do it all with a smile on my face

For some, "home for the holidays" means the world
This little lady is still looking for a loving home. She’s got sensitive skin so she’s enjoying the shirt love.

At least part of my struggle
One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical.
You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!

Be extra kind to yourselves.
A lot of artists, including myself, are struggling.
It's not because we are failing; the system is failing us. A system that doesn't care about us. So we rely on those around us for support and kindness.
Keep your head up. We are doing our best ♡
