Last project I'll be working on during swimming lessons this summer.
When my son started lessons, he was hesitant to get into the water. I'm so proud of the work he's put in!
Swimming may be over, but weaving while shuffling him around town is just amping up as we head back into the school year...

Getting up close and personal with my recent painting, Hephaestus, Mending in Fire.
I love this piece as a whole, but the magic is in the details and textures!

Wearing my braces this week...
We're going to the ren faire this weekend, so most things are on pause while I make our costumes.
Oliver's into trinket trading, so I made 100+ charms to share & ended up triggering my tendonitis!
Hopefully if I baby my wrists now, I can leave the braces at home.

I recently learned that Lefthanders Day was yesterday. Being a lefty myself, this sent me down a rabbit hole.
So here it is - a day late, but full of all the best things - stories, history, science, tips...
If you're a fellow lefty, you might see yourself in this one https://f.mtr.cool/vpocirscjj

Depending on the time of day, I teeter between staying informed about our current hellscape and escaping into a fantasy world to survive.

In a world that often rushes us, this process invites stillness and trust—reminding us that something beautiful is forming, even if we can’t see it right away. As the layers of pigment settle, the textures of the clay begin to reveal themselves, each one adding to the story beneath the surface.
