I've been working on designs using my drawings for Pride Month and I love how they've been turning out. 💗 I started adding my art and photography to Fine Art America too.

On an unrelated note to my crash out, here is a design I did as a tattoo idea to celebrate my graduation in 2022 with my horticulture degree. Sketched on pen and paper and finished and rendered digitally.

My January Books:

You can also follow me on Goodreads if you'd like. Yes, I had to take a brief break from the environmental ones. Back to it for February along with plans for some related to Black History Month. If you have any recommendations let me know!

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Forever pissed that I have to be Aware and Informed instead of reading science fiction and fantasy and writing stories.

I'm a children's literature critic, not an expert on government!

(Not a fan of this timeline. At all.)

So the state of American politics has got me so messed up right now. I have a playlist going. Any suggestions for songs to add?
