"The most regretful people on earth are those who felt the call to creative work, who felt their own creative power restive and uprising, and gave to it neither power nor time."

I keep coming back to Mary Oliver's meditation on creativity www.themarginalian.org/2016/10/12/m...

We've got some new apparel on the website, inspired by Greek mythology.

We've just dropped a new batch of 13 NFTs. This month's collection explores the ancient myth of Europa & the Bull. Often told as an abduction, there are versions that tell it as a story of trust, fascination, and seduction.

I'm done designing the 2025 Fortnight Calendar! The layout is ideal for planning those spring gardens and watching the moon drift across the year. It's available on my website for $28 as a poster. Two smaller sizes are available to download & print from home.

@foxandthistle.studio has launched an NFT collection on exchange.art called FablersTrove

exchange.art/fablerstrove...

This is an entirely new venture. In a nutshell, NFTs give artists a way to earn money off our work, and to keep earning off each subsequent sale that happens thereafter.

Need to call it off with your #sweetheart before #valentinesday? How's about a #breakup card. #artwork and #poem inspired by #kurtvonneut.

Original poem on the cyclical nature of reselling. Each item continuously exists in one of three states, and the lines between are rather fluid. #theLiminal #poetry #verse #originalpoetry #spiral #vintage #getting #having #trading

A handful of #upcycled pieces from the past few years.

This is a #garden #patio privacy wall I built out horse fencing and 2" thick red oak rounds. It's 16 feet long by 9 feet tall. There are around 150 oak rounds there now, and it'll take another 100 or so to finish this spring. #yardprojects

This is a short piece from my newsletter #theLiminal on #kurtvonnegut

Plinth & Laud is a short highlight paying homage to the influential visionaries whose legacies continue to captivate and enchant our imaginations.

This ficus #bonsai tree was gifted to me by a friend in 2017. Here's a comparison of the #growth since I've been caring for it. I'm preparing to do some work on the roots, and thought I'd document this stage.
