September print reward 🌟

I'm very late to the game but finally here is this month's print artwork!! I'm actually really happy with how this turned out despite the fact it took nearly two weeks longer than I would've liked 💀 The strawberry and lemon kitties are running their own lil farmer's market stand selling their goods!! All patrons under the Chocolate Purrfait tier between September 1 - September 30 will receive this print in the mail.

September print preview 🍓🍋✨

     Hi guys!!~ I've been having a really weak start to the month so I've been unfortunately taking my sweet time working on the artwork for this month's print, but here is a little preview with the progress I've made so far :') 

     My mental health has been getting worse and worse over the past couple of weeks and I've barely found myself making art. This is the first artwork I've done since last month's print, and although I've ...

How I make roll labels at home 🌟

     Hi patrons!! Roll labels are insanely convenient because you can easily grab and go, as opposed to fiddling with a sheet of stickers, but they're actually surprisingly expensive to get made. A while back I went ahead and made my own roll of circle stickers at home (very easy and convenient) so I figured I'd share the process as I made a new roll! 

     I get my circle labels from the brand OnlineLabels (the ones I'm us...

August print preview!!

Hi patrons!!~ I am still working on chipping away at the artwork for this month's print, but I wanted to share a WIP with you all and give you a peek at what it's going to look like! I did a very messy sketch of this piece in my sketchbook months ago and I've been meaning to trace it onto watercolor paper and do a finished piece with it ever since. I initially started this piece with my watercolor palette, but went too dark on the hair, so I decided to go over everything in gouache -- gouache...

Update 🌸

tw;; suicide, hospitals
hey guys - it's been a minute since I've really done anything on social media. I have felt my mental health slipping for the past month or so. last week I was hospitalized for a suicide attempt - it wasn't my first but it was the one that would've taken my life had my roommate not come home when he did. I was in the ER for 48 hours and moved to a behavioral health unit for three more days; I came home Monday evening. I am doing better but things are still immensely ...

July Update 🌟

Hi patrons, sorry for being so quiet for the month of June - a lot happened on my end. My best friend has been visiting us since the end of May; initially she was going to stay with us for a month and then fly back home, but we all got COVID during the second half of June, so she's been staying with us a but longer than anticipated! (none of us are complaining about that because she lives on the other side of the country and we have only been able to see each other once a year) She flies back...

June mini podcast ☆ Vacation, covid, etc.

Hi patrons~! I've been pretty quiet online for the past couple weeks so I wanted to swing in and have a small chat with you guys. A very very short podcast this time around but I hope it is a nice thing to listen to in the background regardless! <3 

May rewards shipped 🌸

May rewards have been packed and are heading out to you guys! For US patrons, they should arrive within 3-5 business days; for international patrons, between 7-21 days.
