"Excuse me, I apologize
He likes your attitude, he tries it on for size
He spends the afternoon, between your thighs
How’s that for gratitude, I apologize
It seemed to last for hours
It seemed to last for days
This lady of the flowers
And her hypnotic gaze”
-Placebo, “Lady of the Flowers”

library professional. I attended my first library conference on Friday and had to sketch some book nerd stuff. The second sketch is a little pen portrait of the keynote speaker, author Temim Fruchter @both_and_yes

I love when my collection of transgressive art bumper stickers gets weird looks from boring people in the cars behind me. On my way to work today, I noticed in my rear view mirror a couple mouthing and pointing.
I'll tag the artists in a bit.

Hey @bsky.app this guy just snuck out of his cage, hid under the coffee table, got chased for 10 minutes, then gave a look like "what's up?"

Women have been a source of strength for me my whole life. Beginning with the kickass women in my family and the feminine figures in my favorite books like The Secret Garden and Alice in Wonderland.

Chihuly glass is so pretty, and it gets around! I first encountered pieces in Seattle/Tacoma, and saw another display on a separate trip to Montreal. Here is a photo of a Chihuly sculpture in front of the art museum in Montreal.

My refreshed green hair, be fringe, and red lipstick has me feeling like a badass lady in a post-punk band. Unfortunately, I can only poorly play a ukulele. But pretend this is my Rolling Stone spread circa 2002.

Capricorn (♑︎) is the 10th astrological sign originating from the constellation of Capricornus, the goat. Capricorn is symbolized by the sea goat. This imagery speaks to their bifurcated abilities: Capricorns are skilled at navigating both the material and emotional realms.

Thinking of the life and art of David Lynch today. The impact his work had on outsider art is unmistakable. Blue Velvet and Lost Highway were some of my favorites. He cut a path for others and inspired some of my favorite musicians, filmmakers, and artists. Rest in weirdnes.
