Hi, I’m Kt. Just a mentally tired Illustration artist living in the Pacific Northwest.

Website: https://www.katienewmanillustration.com

I believe in equal rights. Global warming is real. Too much power=corruption. And I love trees.

Focusing on the good thoughts for a bit. Those dreamy, hopeful ideas. #illustration #mindfulart #mentalrest
Some people suffer, and then go on thinking of ways to ensure that others do not have to suffer the same.

Other people suffer…and then decide others must suffer the same.

I don’t understand that.

You know you’re tired when you order a coffee and a bagel.

And the barista asks if you- “want whipcream on that?”

And you say- “Oh no, not on my bagel, thank you.”

HUGE: Senate Parliamentarian says that Mike Lee's public land sell-off violates the Byrd rule, requires 60 votes in the Senate. A bunch of other terrible anti-environment provisions do too.

This isn't over, but this is a huge win.

This is the story of a stag, a “king” of the forest, who began to steal food from others.

He ate and ate till his horned crown grew so big, he could barely lift his head, or run.

Easy prey in a forest of hunters. And so greed became his downfall

Even if mainstream media isn’t showing it, huge protests against this administration are happening all across the states today(5/1), and internationally too!

So important to remember you aren’t alone. There are thousands and THOUSANDS of us ✊💙

I had a dream that someone accidently cursed me with the probability of having a 50% higher chance, every day…to see a spider.

This was so devastating to me that I dropped out of college to go into isolation….

I would love to know how to interpret that….

Trump administration opens half of National Forests to logging. An emergency order lifts protections on over half of U.S. Forest Service lands as the Trump pushes to increase timber production.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

….it is so awing to see people in mass, in person, coming together in protest. We are not just text on a screen. These are REAL people uniting against this fascist regime

Dozens of coordinated protests against the Trump administration are happening across Oregon Saturday, including several in the Portland area.

The #HandsOff demonstrations come in response to the Trump administration, Doge, tariffs and several other issues

As an artist sometimes I’ve felt
…”what’s even the point?” How important is art in the scheme of such tragedies that we live or see others experience.

But then I see a piece of art, hear a song, read a story, that ignites my soul with hope. Reminds me I’m not alone.

Art is everything #art #hope

Hey Oregonians(and heck, anyone!) We have until 3/31 to submit a comment on what we think about them destroying thousands of acres of our public land for mining.

We knew they were coming for the land. Speak up!

Link to submit a comment is in the article. #Oregon #pnw #savetheland #nodrilling #

I don’t post much, but I am actually working on multiple things. One of which, a short fairy tale. Tentative title “the Downfall”… #originalfairytales #illustration #drawing #art

An old piece of mine. Seems relevant today. Even in my room I can’t escape the creeping thoughts and constant treading of hollow men.
