From stencil to dyed fabric — Cabinet of Curiosities
Another wonderful collab with @kirikomade !! This furoshiki (wrapping cloth — you can use it as a scarf or bandanna too!) was designed by me featuring PDX landmarks and a few little quirky details :) available through their brick and mortar and online!

Received two packages of amazing goodies of our collab from Kiriko Made — the most sturdy canvas tote ever! And a shirt of the same design (also thick and sturdy), a dragon tea infuser thermos and a Portland themed furoshiki. So amazing!

Made a banner for Pendragon’s Labyrinth in downtown Port Townsend! It’s a cool shop — highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area.

Had such a wonderful time at Fuyu fest, a sake tasting festival run by @sunflowersake ! Got to taste some delicious sake while vending my wares 🍶 I made these maekake (apron traditionally used to promote shops) inspired pieces last minute with the mossy slug stencil — aren’t they cute? #dyework

Just dropped a big banner off at @pendragons_labyrinth — perhaps you’ll see it flying above their shop soon, if you’re local! It’s so much fun working on these big banners; let me know if you have any fun ideas for them! #dyework #resistdye #dragonart

If anyone wants to share a booth for Crafty Wonderland in PDX May 2-3 and you’re able to sell my stuff and break everything down on May 3rd, I will pay the entire booth fee and food costs! Let me know if you’re a maker who is interested.

Made an order (a tote I’d been covering for a while) from @kirikomade who has been a wonderful client — and a postcard of my work came with it 🥲 it turned out awesome! #workingartist #dyework

Happy new year! It’s the year of the snake this year — and I worked in this little card for @kirikomade — a wonderful spot in PDX for beautiful Japanese and Japanese inspired work. 🐍 Snakes are one of my favorite animals and one I have a personal connection to. I’m hoping for a better, and more...

Working on a few leather bags for @renegadecraft — I’ve worked on a few leather items for around the house but it’s been such a challenge to do in a way that I’m satisfied with. I have a lot of respect for leather working friends; it never behaves in a way I expect it to! But it’s been fun tryin...

Trying to make more of an effort to photograph recent pieces and document the work I make — peonies and clearwing moth. I’m getting rather busy and my work queue is completely full, but it’s been fun making custom one-offs.

I’m traveling to Mongolia tomorrow until 9/26! I’ve completed the client work I’ve need to complete for now — I’ve had to shuffle around my priority list a bit to make this possible. I am bringing some work with me as well but updates will be somewhat spotty due to internet reliability. Please r...

Had some really lovely photos taken by @kendallrock on a perfectly moody gray afternoon — she did an amazing job! Thank you :)🙏🏼 I don’t like having photos taken of me at all and she made it super quick and easy and fun.

A small moth piece for @cvgbremerton underground show for August! I’ve been working on a lot of stuff but don’t have a ton I can show quite yet which kind of sucks! I realized I was doing a lot of client work but not a lot for myself, and ended up trying to figure out some wearables…pretty excit...

The artwork I did for @snowpeakcampfield — featuring the spotted owl, pacific tree frog and banana slug. It was fun working on something a bit more detailed!

Recently got to work on an indigo dyed banner for my dear friend Wisp for their @wanderingapothecary — it’s a noboribata/flag and twice dyed for depth of color. I love doing commission work for local small businesses — and I’ve been quite fortunate with my clients since they have been so open to...
