074. going on as an understudy, and a lil career identity crisis

And here is our Feb podcast!! I talk about actually getting to go on for one of my understudy tracks, and ramble on about my currently career feelings/dilemmas/woes. I know it's maybe the same thing you've heard from me a bunch in the past, but it's what on my mind today!! And I spend a lot of time thinking about this kind of stuff, so it makes sense that I talk a lot about it lolol.

I ask this in the episode, and I'll ask you here too -- what do you want to see from me? What do you lik...

february sketch and WIP tour!!

WOOOOO by the skin of my teeth, here is Feb's sketch and WIP tour!! I've decided that since I've really really REALLY been leaning more into my fiber arts pursuits as of late, these little sketchbook tours will now include my fave/the more interesting of my knit & crochets WIPs (or maybe even finished projects!!)

I have a little blurb under each project giving some details, and I'll include the patterns I'm following here:

understudy run, fiber fun, and quality time with cats & friends <3

Helllooooo my loves! I wanted to write up a little blog post about what's been going on in my life for the last month and some change~ I'm slowly finding my way back into my workflow for this other half of my creative life, and it's a bit clumsy, but we're finding the way. 

First off: I'm officially all done with understudy rehearsals! (That is, until we move into the next location -- Village Theatre has a second location in Everett, so we'll be doing another full ...

january rewards are almost done being mailed out!!

HELLOOO my sweets! Just a little update to say that January's art mail will be all finished mailing out tomorrow. I didn't realize I didn't quite have enough envelopes, so we ended up using some backstock that I thankfully had lying around, but we have to go through and seal them all with washi tape/water and a sponge, as they don't have the handy dandy peel-and-stick thing. SO rewards are taking a little longer this go around!! Thank you for your patience!!!

february art mail!!

HELLOOOOOOO I'm back in the studio today!! And I just ordered February's art mail, so here's the preview for it :3 I'm really really happy with it, and I hope y'all like it too. The print turned out better than I could have hoped, and I finished it during one of our last days of tech, so it feels like a really good little crossover between my worlds <3 

I'm drawing up a little blog post now on my rehearsal process over the last month! I've got a handful of photos, and want to ki...

073. it's so good to be back in the theatre

Hello!!!! I'm writing this as I'm heading out the door so I may add more later but enjoy this rambly episode all about my theatre life for the last month!! I love you!!

january art mail preview!!

WOOOOO I finished the January rewards! And got 'em ordered today heheh

I'm really really happy with how these turned out <33 I just want all the cozy warm vibes !!! give em to me!! >:0 

Since I'm in rehearsals Tuesday through Sunday for the rest of the month, these rewards probably won't ship out until the start of February, just as a heads up. I thought that I'd be ~super productive~ on my Mondays off, but it turns out that understudying four different tracks is exhaus...

need input on january's sticker!

Hello!!! I need your input~ I can't decide if I like this goose better with or without the sparkle -- I like the clean silhouette of the first one, but I feel like the sparkles help add a little ~something~

Lemme know what you like better! You can even choose both if you really don't care, but I'd love to see which one y'all have a preference for. I need to get these ordered by EOD today so vot...

rehearsal starts tomorrow!!

Hi friends!! My rehearsals start tomorrow for Sense and Sensibility!! I’ll be at the theatre I think 5/7 days a week, for 9 hours a day, so I’m gonna be a wee bit exhausted methinks heh

I have Sundays and Mondays off (I think I have Sundays off? We’ll see what happens when tech rolls around rip) so I’ll be a bit quiet on here !! So rewards and things will probs be posted on aforementioned Mondays. :D As you can see, I had a fun little craft moment with my binder cover which I’...

managed to get one last video out this year

I really wanted to upload a little update video to my channel, to officially ~sign off~ on 2022 I guess ! It felt symbolically important. It's a quick little chat <3 (also, the video came out a bit dimmer than it looked while editing in Premiere, but I hope it's still cozy and good for ya)

Happy new year, y'all!!! Onwards to 2023!

end-of-the-year sketch dump!!

Hello! Here's our final sketchbook tour/dump of the year!! (I wish there was a different word for this than "dump"...trove? Treasure? Hoard? Maybe collection??Cause "tour" isn't quite right. HMMM)

This includes stuff from back in September and October that I never posted, and it makes me a bit sad that I drew SO MUCH in August, and then didn't draw as much in the following four months. I'm definitely not one of those people who ~makes art~ when I'm sad, I just fall into my video game ca...

072. "the pain feels too big for my body"

Here is our December podcast my friends!! And, subsequently, our last podcast of 2022!! AAHHHH

I cannot believe the end of the year is already upon us. This happens every year, but I never cease to be just gobsmacked at how time continues to pass quicker and quicker D:

In this episode, I talk a bit about post break-up healing, my hopes for 2023, and some fiber nonsense cause I can't help myself heh. Here's a list of some of the things I mentioned:

thank you ♡ & a 2023 printable calendar!!

edit: sweet Taylor pointed out that the dates for June and August were off a bit, so I've fixed the calendar and reuploaded it for you!!

Hello my sweets!!! Worry not, the sketchbook and final podcast of the year will be going up tomorrow, but I wanted to post my little end-of-the-year thank you tonight, cause 2023 is rapidly approaching and I didn't want to miss the opportunity. 

I'm always at a loss for words whenever I try to accurately express my...

please add your shipping address!!!

Hello my dears!! I'm working on sending out the December rewards, and a lot of my sticker sweeties don't have their shipping addresses added -- I know it's likely cause of the way the tier switch happened, but please do go in and add your shipping address ASAP. 

You can do this by going to Settings > Active Memberships, and then scrolling down to your membership for my page. :o) I'll be doing a second batch of December mailings...

blog: headed home for the holidays!

Hello my dears!! Happy Saturday~ I come to you from a gently snowy Seattle. It's been a while since the snowy photo up above, so I'm very happy to have some flurries outside again--oh, wait, it's rain again. It's sleet. We'll see how this develops lolol. 

I wanted to write and let y'all know that I am headed home to Texas tomorrow for Christmas!! This December has been so extremely difficult, for obvious reasons (I thought I was prepared for the pain this holiday season was going t...

december art mail preview~

Helloooo my friends!! I painted and edited the December postcard, and I'm so happy with how it turned out :o) It was really fun to work traditionally, as it's been SO LONG it's just tricky cause all my paint stuff is at the studio, but I don't have a sink hook-up in there, so painting is always a bit of a pain lmao I can't wait to have a home studio one day (hopefully soon heh)

If you wanna get either (or both) of these goodies, be sure to join any of the art mail tiers before t...
