hello all!

i hope your new year has been going well. mine had been fine - busy. i don’t really celebrate the ‘new year’ until the spring equinox… i’m out of my routine so i’m feeling a little weird but i know i will swing back into it. i’ve recently moved into a new home and i am scheming. i have a few things i am prepping for so i am trying to stay patient so i make all of the right moves before just jumping right in.

i am planning out an urban farm design, but first i need to begin with addressing the soil. building the sand up into something alive and nutrient dense, so that maybe i can be ready for next season. also, i may be getting a risographer printer here soon! ! more on that later!

until then, here are some events i have booked:

events i have coming up

i also recently wrote a small new piece for substack, check it out here.

i’ll be updating my webstore soon, but in the meantime, you can browse digital downloads on my patreon or sign up for my sticker club by clicking here.

i am currently participating in carolyn yoo’s creative resilience challenge. these have been nice ways to think creatively under minimal pressure.

i’ve also been repairing broken items and mending clothing this winter for winter of care and repair, which i found out about on substack. it’s been a nice way to motivate myself to fix items that i’ve been putting off! i’ve mended some socks, hemmed some pants, and fixed a couple of chairs that were broken.
