I don’t know who needs to hear this, but your belief that a bookshelf with a rolling ladder will fix you is a valid one.

Anyone who tells you otherwise is not worthy of your friendship.

an #ablartfest illustration for the prompt “the crystal ball reveals…”

wanted to show these two buddies again - and thought what would kids have as a crystal ball? A waterballoon!

We’re baking two pies with one pumpkin today! Day 11 of #MabsDrawlloweenClub is “pumpkin” & my #stickerclub members happened to pick the pumpkin option as the sticker of the month.

Soooo, this #stickerdesign for my sticker club is also gonna work as my entry for pumpkin.

I’ve been regulating my nervous system this week and warming up for a commission with this new great-horned owl cut paper #collage. It’s likely one of the only #calmtober prompts I’ll get to, though I’m still enjoying everyone else’s illustrations! #watercolor #cutpaper #owl #calmtober25

i see so many lovely and cute artsy setups that artists have but this is me!

i set everything up once my kids are in bed and of course, the office playing ep after ep so i can giggle at the show while i work

and then i pack it all up before bed so my little goblins dont touch my stuff 😅

#peachtober25 todays prompt is SLUG 🍃

i don’t think i’ve ever thought about drawing a slug but i had SO MUCH FUN creating these slimy bright sluggys!

Painting & paper cuts has been such a blast to work with in the late late hours of the night ✨
