When I get messy, I get a chance to really play with all the elements of expression. What about you? Do you like making messy art or clean art?

Can you make your own luck? 🍀 I have been thinking about the small everyday magic all around us. Why are they so special? It’s all about the memories. That’s where the real magic, the quiet hopeful magic kind.
So what’s your lucky charm? Does it carry happy memories?

Found this picture of bloodroot looking for spring flowers. It gets its name from the red sap it has. It’s a mix of delicate spring vibes and bold color contrast! Who do you like to strike that balance?

What do you think of these delicate snowdrop flowers? They look ready for spring. If you wanna see how I drew them I have tutorials. Do you prefer drawing delicate or bold flowers?

Forgot to get process shots. I love seeing crocus pop their little flowers out. If you have trouble drawing these flowers, I have a tutorial. They are a vibrant way to dress up the last days of your seasonal depression.

This is so cool. Like something out of a Bond movie.
What’s happening in Sicily, Italy 🇮🇹 is absolutely extraordinary!
Mount Etna is erupting while its summit remains covered in snow—an incredible clash of fire and ice.
Here are some explorers skiing between lava flows and snowy slopes—a truly unprecedented sight! ⛷🔥❄️

I’m playing hooky this week. The shock and awe is really exhausting in this moment. So I am going down a fiber arts hole where I feel safe.
I’ll be back next week with fresh art and ready.

Not sure why I love this sketch so much, but I do. Something about her expression speaks to me. Excited to share it here.

Another throwback piece that still feels wonderful to me. ✨I love the gold, rust, and dark blue. What kind of story do you think this creature is telling? 😁

Still loving this piece-something about the rabbit mask and these colors hits just right. 🐇✨Teal, sage, gold and that deep orange, so classic! 🧡

I encourage you to make whatever creative project idea that’s rattling around in your brain - We get so little time on this Earth, and one of the ways we can make that time meaningful is by making art. We all need your stories, your thoughts, your creativity; There’s no time like the present. ❤️

Brining those sketches to life with watercolor. Everything is inspired by winter! Love adding little details to each mask. More details coming soon.

Diving into more Appalachian inspired fairy mask magic. Stuck inside for the whole winter, but it helps to imagine different personalities for different masks. Can’t wait to paint the heck out of these!

When I was little I learned that you can’t pick wild flowers and bring them home. You have to love them without making them yours

If I was an LA firefighter and I saw the Brian Griffin thumbs up, I really feel that would motivate me and give me the strength to “do it for Brian”

Meet Billie. What is he? Who knows—but imagine if fairies had cryptids of their own. That’s where the inspiration came from. Billie has wandered onto your feed, bringing a bit of mystery with him (or her). Follow for more quirky creations like this little enigma!
