Update on Commissions

Here is a process video of the commissioned paintings I’ve completed in the past 2 years! :3

I created a waitlist for custom portrait paintings in January of 2022, exclusively for my Patreon supporters. I decided to cap it off at 60 total, though a few have given up their spot on the waitlist by canceling their membership.

It’s now coming up on two years since the waitlist was created, and I’ve only completed 10 of them so far. I didn’t know it would take me this long, bu...

We are now officially moved in!

Hello everyone!! I'm sorry for the late post! but we're finally settling in at the new house 🥰

I have a few videos planned for how each of the cats' first week after their move went, and I'm organizing my camera roll into separate albums to easily locate videos for compilations of all the Noodle, Atlas, Squid and Haku silliness that occurred this year.

What do you want in next year's Noodle Mail? :3

Hi everyone! Hope you are all doing well and staying healthy ❤

I want to start planning for next year, so what kind of items would you all prefer to get?!

They must be small and relatively flat (a postcard puzzle is as thick as we can go, and even that one costs double in postage) so keep that in mind! 

Vote for what items you'd like to receive below!

November Noodle Mail + 50%OFF all Etsy orders!

This month's Noodle Mail is a throwback to a book I made in 2020! I never had the chance to make copies of it, so it's really cool to be able to send it out as Noodle Mail! I made it before the noodlings existed, so I'll need to make an updated version in a future Noodle Mail.

I will also put out a special patreon 50% coupon code for every item in the Etsy store. I will have it until the end of the year for everyone catching up on holiday gifts etc.

Japan!

Hey everyone! I wanted to share that I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Japan this month.

I traveled with my husband and my friend Sarah. None of our cats yet because we are still wary of traveling with them.

Our first few nights, we stayed in a city nicknamed "cat town" in Tokyo, Japan. We saw so many cat related things in the streets, from cat themed shops to chalk drawings of cats by children on the floors of their local train station.

I was able to meet my pen...

New Youtube Video Posted!

I've invested over 100 hours into The Sillies so far! I'm now on the third row of cats, pluggin along on a painting streak of 11 days in a row so far.

I'm able to schedule posts out a few days in advance on my social media now that I'm a couple cats ahead. I post to a whopping 7 different apps on a regular basis! (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, TikTok, Reddit, Imgur) all in the hopes more cat loving people get the chance to see it and smile. <3

3 years of Noodle Mail!! 🎉🎉

Hey everyone!

It's been 3 years since I started this. Back in February 2020 I got my first patreon, and it's now grown into such a wonderful cat-loving community!

As a way of showing how much I appreciate the support here, I started sending out special enamel pin packages to my patreons who supported me for 1 year, then 2 years, and now some of you have been supporting for 3 years!! 😵‍💫🥹❤️!

These pins are shipped out as each individual ...

March Noodle Mail!

hello everyone! I haven't posted much progress recently as I have been feeling burnt out. I have a fear of letting you all down, like what I'm painting isn't good enough because I really want to make all my supporters happy and excited.

To combat these unhelpful emotions, I've spent time with friends and family. Stepping back has helped me regain some confidence to keep going. I am starting to feel more like my usual painter self! It's tough to start or finish any work if I'm not feeli...

November Noodle Mail! ✨

I sent out all of this month's mail on November 4th! It includes a 5x7" mini print of the next painting in my mini series The Fascinators, this time starring Squid! This month's mail also includes a 4x4" magnet of the Box Car Noodle painting, which was inspired by the most voted scent "roadtrip" to become air fresheners. Those will be sent out in January, as they take a while longer to be made.

I've been catching up on blep submissions, almost 10,000 emails...

Air Freshener update: Roadtrip wins!

Roadtrip was the scent most voted for, so I made a painting inspired by the word! Noodle in a cardboard box car. The background colors were inspired by the landscapes of Planet Namek from Dragon Ball Z.

Unfortunately the air fresheners will not be ready in time for November Noodle Mail, so I plan on sending them out in January 2023 Noodle Mail instead.

but dont fret! November Noodle mail will include the magnet version of the painting! I will upload the process of the painting o...
