Printed (inkjet because my screenprinting chemicals apparently expired) an old public domain illustration from Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla on my homemade paper as a gift. So my paper works!

Day 29: Mansion
One of my favorite artists is Fever Ray, and the imagery of the music video for "If I Had a Heart" lingers with me. A haunting display of a mansion, scene to death and horror.

Day 28: Horror
I was very inspired by the horror short "quiet apocalypse" by insolitum. on YouTube. The creatures are so odd and so forlorn. This was one of my favorites from the short.

Don't know how, but I didn't post days 18 and 19! Cinnamon and Divination.
I'm a big fan of cinnamon bears. Any other cinnamon candy fans?
I also found a neat pendulum to draw.

Day 3 of #Octumnal2025 - baking. Well... maybe it's relative, but I chose a microwave because I was told recently I "give off Animal Crossing hamster vibes" and must have been "microwaved in another life." Compliment? Insult? Whichever, I think this is going to become a sticker.
