Happy #PortfolioDay friends!

I'm Manda, aka The Naughty Printmaker. I'm a queer mixed media artist (mostly litho, but also paint, needlepoint, ink, other print processes, any combination of the above). I take a lot of imagery & inspiration from nature, horror movies, and gender identity/expression.
Took the younger kiddo out to lunch today and then hit up the MOST with the Girl Scouts before we send them back to school tomorrow. Among other general goofiness, we all took turns hatching

Just catching up on basho day 7 and thanks to Asanoyama, most of my boys are back in the yusho hunt!

Although I definitely need Hoshoryu to protect his head a bit more 😬 I'm always glad for the win, especially when he shouldn't have had to do it twice - but DAMN that looked like a hard hit.

Hakunofuji was fully upside down when Hosh's hand touched, how could he think he won? 😂😅

I'm kinda mad about the torinaoshi, I feel like if it were a certain other yokozuna, it would have been gunbai-dōri.

I just hope our boy didn't hit his head *too* hard! Last thing he needs is a concussion too.

Aonishiki beat Onosato last basho and Ura beat Onosato this basho.

I DO like Onosato. But damn, they're not doing a good job hiding their favoritism.
I think Ura beat Onosato that first bout on Day 3.

100% both yokozuna should be 1 loss. The athletic skill and agility displayed by Ura to pull that off should be celebrated.

Shout out to my trans lovelies. I'm not going to name names for safety reasons, but I love y'all ❤️❤️❤️

I'm thinking stickers and/or a tote bag rather than a litho edition. But I also transferred the drawing to some watercolor paper, so there will definitely be a painted illustration as well.

Sumo day 1 could have only been better if Tamawashi had won his bout. But no worries, the basho is young!

Now hockey on the other hand...Torrent, why??? 😭😭😭

My 2026 sumo wishlist:

- Hoshoryu zensho

- Aonishiki promotion to yokozuna

- An epic Onosato v Hoshoryu v Aonishiki play off at least once (preferably more than once!)

- Takayasu [redacted so as not to jinx anything]

- Kotozakura yusho

...

Setting shirts now, tagging shirts and books after breakfast (restocking shirt sizes S-5X!), Wildflowers this evening, and then home just in time for the start of the hatsu basho tonight - not a bad way to spend a Saturday!

First basho of 2026 starts today!!! 15 straight days of sumo. If 2026 is anything like 2025 we're in for a hell of a year!

Still in a Pride state of mind. Aiming for a small T-shirt restock at Wildflowers this weekend, but I also have like 5 different things in my head right now demanding to be drawn so we'll see how much I can churn out. #artistproblems

Because 3 games in one day is not enough, Torrent and Sceptres have given us bonus hockey! 😍 #pwhl

Commentator: "...as Montreal playing their brand of -"

Me: "Their brand of sumo!"

Commentator: "- hockey..."

Me: "Right, I'm watching hockey right now, not sumo."

So is Shatner's unique way of playing Kirk just him portraying a man on the verge of a nervous breakdown for three years straight?
December 31, 2025 at 7:02 PM
Ok, Nightmare at 20,000 Feet. Shatner is playing his guy recovering from a breakdown a LOT like how he would play Kirk a few years later.

Kirk often had spells of depression & agonized over how his command decisions affected his crew...

Not too shabby a year. I feel like I hit a creative slump in the summer/fall, but I just filled it with bookbinding 😂 And I have quite a few new ideas percolating right now, so next year is looking to start off as a banger. ❤️❤️❤️

No bonus hockey today 😭

But I'll never be mad at a Sirens win!

Now come on Seattle, tie it up again here at the end!
December 29, 2025 at 1:40 AM
So I reconciled being a(n upstate) NYer with the fact that all my favorite players are on Seattle now by deciding when they play each other, I'm rooting for bonus hockey.

And it's been looking good for me until O'Brien scored a goal while I was typing this lol. But I can't be mad at a hat trick

And as soon as I showed The Naughty Husband my Tamawashi button, he wanted one of Onosato and his fish 😂

Sunday morning button making. What Would Tamawashi Do? We all know the answer is nodowa, and grabbing things that get in my way by the throat is the energy I want to take into my 40s.

In related news, drawing a less than 2in/5cm portrait that is a passable likeness is frickin' HARD
