Hi, I'm Mara! A queer artist with AuDHD and a constant headache (among other things) and with that a lot of exhaustion.

I do a lot of different art.
Currently I'm mainly focusing on rubber stamps. But I also do lino printing and love painting picture frames for art. And I love a good side project.
Gerne! Viel Spaß beim Stempelmachen 😊

Of course the best print was a test on cheap copy paper. #art

Danke danke 😌

fand ich dieses günstige Wechselset erstaunlich gut. Die ersten Schnecken und auch zb den Mainzer Dom hab ich komplett damit gemacht. Dann hab ich geguckt, wofür ich gerne besseres Werkzeug hätte und habe gesagt, für die Details. (Und es war auch echt ein Gamechanger. Kann es eig nur empfehlen.)

Ich hab zwei davon. Einmal V11 und U12. Glaub das sind die zwei kleinsten. Die nutze ich für Details, für alles größere nutze ich so ein günstiges mit auswechselbaren Steckklingen.
Kommt aber echt drauf an, was du willst/wofür du es willst. Für Mini Details sind die zwei super.
Gerade für Stempel

Did a small, spontaneous print, because I cut paper for sth I wanted to reprint today and had some over. And since I didn't want to set up a printing station and not use the small paper, I did this design too.

(And of course I didn't do the print I planned to do... 😶)

Gerade war der Alarm nochmal für so 10s an, aber es hörte sich weiter entfernt an. 🤔

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

stop that. People care about you. Don't tell yourself otherwise.

Only someone that doesn't know you at all would say you're a bad person/friend, because we all know that's not true. I see how much you care, Leon. They obviously have no clue what they're talking about. ❤️‍🩹

Woke up because of a car(?) alarm that sounded a bit like a werid siren. So after a minute or so, I suddenly panicked myself into "maybe it's an emergency siren?? I need to look at my phone, at the news, bluesky if sth happened" 🫠

Sadly my friend doesn't have time to dye my hair today.

The printing isn't great, but I did it quick and dirty just for fun while the bleach in my hair set.

Never was I reluctant to cut my hair. What is happening?! 😭
January 15, 2026 at 12:33 PM
But I want the wavy pink and yellow pattern part on a buzzcut. And it would be 1000x cooler.
January 15, 2026 at 12:32 PM
I just decided to do a buzzcut and went to the bathroom to do it, but when I looked at the mirror, I liked the (still unpolished) short sides and longer top. 😭
January 15, 2026 at 12:29 PM
Ah, fuck it.
January 15, 2026 at 12:25 PM
And I kinda don't love my buzzcut look, but it's easy. But I want to marry my partner this year and I'm not sure when and if the hair will be long enough for my usual look by then.
January 15, 2026 at 12:23 PM
My plan was a buzz cut and then yellow and pink color. But now I'm unsure, because we got a new cheap trimmer (because the other broke) and I mainly wanted a buzz cut because our trimmer was already shit and it made transitions hard and everything so exhausting. And I like the longer top part.
