I’m making my first comic. It feels like I’ve been heading here the whole time.

I started it in a class on processing climate grief and anxiety with comics and I even already had a poem ready for this.

I got to talk about Mothership HackerMoms AND slip in a quote from one of my all-time favorite authors, Sheri S Tepper. Very exciting. Much squee. <3
(I do think I sound nervous, but whatever.)

Ok, ok, I've polished this one plenty. I can let her be on things. Really, I can. She's strong. She'll guard your heart.

Adare’s work is always glorious, but these new cards really show a range. You should go follow them and buy art.

Latest #DrawingWithJentle session. Yay, freckles. <3

I put several new designs up today, including the first 2 of the Flare tessellation series.

There are so many good charities, I’m picking them by feel at this point. <3

That time I put together a poem about climate change on my beloved child’s birthday and then it never stopped being relevant.

Today’s #DrawingWithJentle was about this cat. <3 AND we had art-adventurers calling in from 3 countries! USA, Scotland, and India today. And a sweet kitten meme.

What a time to be alive.

I know this platform claims it won’t scrape images for DeGenerative AI, but we live in a universe based on change. And I like my signature enough to see it as worthy of being more present in the work.

And I’m watching the Handmaid’s Tale seasons 3-5 on loop.
