If you like beer in Lincoln, Nebraska, this is your time! I’ll be at a market hosted by Code Beer Co. on Saturday, and friends will also be at a market at White Elm Brewing that runs until 7 pm. Honestly, the best way to get holiday presents - shop local, grab a beer, get cool art. 🍻
A graphic reads Craft and Beer Makers Market and is surrounded by designs of hops, wheat, water droplets, rulers, paint brushes, an x-acto knife, scissors and a pencil. At the bottom it reads Dec. 13, 2025 @ Code Beer Co. 12 PM - 5 PM. A list of vendors for the Saturday, Dec. 13 makers market at Code Beer Co reads: 402 Made, Beer Paws, C+A Designs, Deb Lee Toth, Dotting 2aT, Jefe’s Pepper Products, Kidlat Forge, Liz McCue, Made with Love Cakery, Mallory Lempke Photography, Poppy and Dough, Rubie Grace Handmade and Scene Stitcher.

My last art market of the year is this Saturday, so I’ve been signing and packaging prints. Here are a few of my favorites, of my newest edits!
A black and white photograph of the back of a dusty white church with a tall brick chimney and a taller steeple at the front. Cornfields surround it. Bright green horseweed grows out of orange rust on the platform of a blue train engine. A print of a frog resting in a pond sits on a messy desk.

Finished edits on an article + images that have been in the works since January!

Can you guess what it’s about? ⚔️

My cat has an uncanny knowledge of when I’m on a deadline and frequently chooses those exact times to run around screaming and opening all the cabinet doors.
A large brown tabby cat peeks out of the bottom right shelf of a dark brown cabinet. He doesn’t quite fit, with his elbow and belly fluff oozing into the air off the shelf and his tail hanging out. A skinny silver handle frames the left side of the image.

Yuri wanted to be part of Galentine’s, too! I joined @lionheartcanyon.bsky.social’s galentine’s gift swap for a second time this year. This wrapping is so beautiful! And so is connecting with fellow creative souls across the US.
A tabby cat sniffs at the corner of a gift, wrapped in soft pink paper embossed with pink hearts. A light pink ribbon holds the paper together and a card and a pressed leaf sit atop. A close up of a pressed leaf and a Galentine’s Day card on a gift wrapped in pink. The card reads “Happy Galentine’s, Liz! I hope this package finds you well and that you’ve had a good week.”

I was thinking of regifting this swag from my last job, but oops, I guess it’s Yuri’s now.

I tried to do inktober way back when and…only manager to do one drawing. Kinda happy with it, though. It’s a little unhinged.

I try not to kill spiders if I can, but I’m probably more known for running out of the room if I see one.
Drawing of a person wearing a turtleneck and cowboy boots, with one of said boots moving ominously (by way of motion lines) toward a spider. All greyscale, except for three red exclamation marks over the spider’s head and text that reads “ROOTIN TOOTIN SPIDER SPLOOTIN.” Additionally there are two pens sitting atop the drawing.

Last weekend, I finally got myself together and put up five new images at Saro Cider, one of my favorite haunts in Lincoln, Nebraska.

I also updated my webpage about the show and toned the copy down so it’s not completely unhinged, yay, go me.

Image of five framed photos on a wall showing a mural of a city map. A stool is against the wall and a chair, short table and coasters hint at a cozy seating arrangement.

To get the important things out of the way:

This is my cat, Yuri. He contains multitudes.
Image of a tabby cat sitting upright in a small, square wooden box. The cat’s nose and left peeks over the edge of the box into negative space created by dark carpet on the left side of the photo. Image of a brown tabby cat in a stripy green cat tunnel. The tunnel has a large hole in it, so the cat’s front legs poke out to grab the tunnel from outside its confines. There is a small mouse toy visible. This cat appears to be engaging in chaos, with prominent side-eye forecasting mischief. Image of a cat peeking out from underneath a handwoven rug made of red and black fabric. The cat has a lil’ white-furred schnozzle, with copper-colored fluff peeking out before fading into grey in the darkness under the rug. You can tell this cat is about to commit crimes. There is barely a hint of an iris around his eyes, those are two eight-balls of danger staring at you. You should have already run.
