Artist and Illustrator. Crazy cat lady.
My brain: “I’m feeling so inspired and motivated to paint and sew and cook and…”
My body getting sick:

Y’know I really miss the golden age of Pinterest. The days when looking for an ACTUAL photo for reference wasn’t like looking for a needle in a haystack! AI has really negatively affected the quality of Pinterest. #ihateai #pinterest #photography #realartists #aisucks

Aaaand I’m restarting this painting after abandoning it for months. Because studying for an exam, making pants, taking care of kids and creating a portrait isn’t quite hectic enough! 😉 #wip #landscapepainting #oilpainting #clouds #ihaveadhd

WIP portrait sketch. It’s still in the “ugly” phase of painting, but can you tell who it will be? #wip #sketch #portraits #oilpainting

I don’t remember this being a thing back in the day at Toys r Us but maybe it was just in the US. Cute though! #He-man #toysrus #retrotoys #80s #80skid

One thing I am grateful for: 1. My oldest son cuddling with me on the couch. Unfortunately, he does it the most when he’s unwell, but it’s still wonderful. ❤️ #parenting #gratitudejournal #sons

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,

it is right.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,

it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

it is unlimited.

My oldest kid woke me up at 5am, so my workday taking care of kids is now 5am-7:30pm. I’m already looking forward to bedtime tonight! #childcareworker #tired #momlife

Having nonverbal autistic kids means living in a regular internal state of fight or flight and not being able to talk them down. This is particularly true during cold and flu seasons. #autism #autismparenting #stress #frustrated
