Hey friends! Time for me to get back on social... Fun news! I'll be vending this Saturday night at the Witches' Night Market in #salem hosted by the Witch City Tarot Gathering. Always a great time! The market's free & open to the public. Come say hi! #tarot #witchcraft #tarotcommunity

1/4 Bwahahaaa--I DO finally have an artist name in mind for my next round of unhinged #singer/songwriter hijinks, and I’m not gonna dish it yet, but I will tell you some of the wrong-answers-only #bandnames I brainstormed in the workshopping process:

1/13 My Discord chums said I should be sharing more of the imaginary conversations I have to make sense of this world which makes no fucking sense. So here goes! 😁 #scamalert Hands down the funniest “Dear Domain” spam to grace my inbox yet:

Here's a fun #colorstudy from last summer. Created with procreate brush lines, scanned analog paint textures, and gradient mapping to cycle through a 24 hour light cycle. (Quick-fire repost--Figured out how to make it square.) #natureart #hare #illustration #animation #witchart

9/9 “Oh wow. Information. Are you always, uh… weird?” you ask. Welp, my usual MO is to draw pretty pictures and “keep a fucking lid on it, Marin.” But since my following got scrambled by Meta’s baloney, I’m throwing myself a “just have fun and be yourself” era. What I think is fun is surrealism. 😁

8/9 Keep your organs peeled for Below The Rose by Anyone-But-Skin-Apron, the earnest SoundClouder who is certainly NO blue-haired cartoon villain you should need to be concerned about! It’s got #folkhorror, bowed-guitar soundscapes, scrambled trad songs, #seashanties and jokes! 👀💫👂🎻🌊☠️🌹Aw lookout...

6/9 All this to say, my next “traditional” 🎻🔥 “folk” 😉 songs music album starts dropping this winter, whensoever I finish mixing it. The album is titled Below The Rose. The artist is TBD, but def something else besides “Skin Apron.” Marin McBoatSauce quite possibly…

4/9 Then I dreamed I was apprenticed to become a cabaret strumpet on a house boat with cats running around, and an unmanned skillet of cod steaks frying in the galley. The third page I tried in the Book of Symbols also gave me “BOAT!” I do not know what to do with this….

1/9 Been brainstorming stage names for my next round of ✨unhinged✨ #singersongwriter hijinks, but so far my faves have all been taken by earnest SoundClouders and anime villains I’d never heard of. I thought fuck it—bibliomancy will fix this! So…. (Saga continued below… Wait for it…)

How do I feel, as a pro #queerartist, about letting go of thousands of followers I'd courted over years to delete all my Meta accounts and start over from scratch on fediverse apps that are experimental, fun, and NOT run by Neo-N4z1s? Gaybies & Gentle-thems, The Vibe:

Hey buddies! I run an indie #tarot blog called Interrobang Tarot, where I share salty #tarotspreads for the rebellion. My work is about to pivot, but there's a ton there to enjoy. This is the most popular spread in the collection. #witchcraft #tarotcommunity www.interrobangtarot.com/8u-wtf.html

Oh hi. Here's a little glimpse of the #artiststudio nook/nest where I work. The lower walls have print proofs of originals, and the slanted ceiling is a moodboard of PD vintage art & reference photos. I'm very inspired by #folkhorror, #traditionalwitchcraft, and classic #gothic vibes.

A #painting from a while back. Circa 2018-2019 maybe? This one's called Salt Circle and it was painted with a literal ring of sea salt scattered into the wet paint to get those crunchy watercolor textures. In #folklore salt is protective against otherworldly spirits. #artist #watercolor #witchcraft

Oh hi! I am new here. I use a combo of illustration, lyrical writing, and gothic folk music to explore running themes of symbolism, animism, folklore, witchery, and folk esoterica. In visual art, I use traditional watercolor, brushed ink, and digital media to paint in the style of stained glass.
