The question menu is below!! There's a TW for one of the questions, so please heed that. xx I love you!!

december sketchbook tour~~

Hello friends!! Here is the December sketchbook tour!! I've had a bit of a weird art time lately but I've recently broken through the rut so I'm looking forward to hanging out with my sketchbook again >:) 

I hope y'all have a wonderful New Year's Eve (or Day, depending where you're at!!!) I unfortunately have a mild case of food poisoning (I think we got a bad batch of ice cream from the supermarket) so I'm going to be spending the day on the couch eating saltines and trying to ...

Hello my friends!! Here we are, at the end of 2020. What a damn year, huh? But it's over! Yay!!

I know things are a long ways away from going back to anything resembling the ~before times~ and it's been a long weird hard year in myriad ways but I hope there have been pockets of joy somewhere in there for y'all. Please share those little moments !! I'd love to hear them!!

For me, I think the two biggest things were I started streaming and I got my studio. :...

038. surprise! star wars rant

Truly a surprise! Apparently my feelings about watching the prequels for the first time are much stronger than I anticipated. WELP GET READY in this episode, I talk about Star Wars, office things, Disney as a Conglomerate, and a little bit about "death of the author". This is the Lindsay Ellis video I mention if you're interested!

I love you!!! Happy end of the year!!!

december printable: lussekatter recipe!

Wahoo!!! Here is the December printable! I'm realizing now, I might have misspelled the name of the baked good on the recipe...Is lussekatten still acceptable? Swedish followers, please let me know ;; 

Lussekatter are a traditional Swedish saffron bun β€” they're baked to celebrate St. Lucia Day on December 13th. They're the most beautiful golden light, which I think is meant to symbolize light in the middle of the dark Scandinavian winter. St. Luc...

Hi friends!! Happy December and happy Sunday! I hope you guys are doing alright β€” we are having a very cozy day in the Chateau de Barton-Miller :> I finally got around to rehanging the stuff that fell off the walls in the kitchen during the summer (the command strips tend to fail when it gets really warm) and I also went down to the basement and finally put up some stuff we've been meaning to get rid of on our neighborhood Buy Nothing page. Tiny adult things!! Feels good!!

november sketchbook tour is here!

Hooray!!! I was worried I wouldn't have anything to show for this tour cause I've not drawn in my sketchbook in a couple weeks but turns out I was a FIEND for the first half of the month!! I hope you enjoy ~perusing~ Looking back through these is always good for me cause I'm like "Why am I so angry at myself all the time! I make decent things!" So. Onward and upwards I guess ;; 

Love you soooo much! Hope your Monday is alright!

Hi y'all! I'm so sorry about this month β€” I know I've really dropped the ball on Patreon content as the end of the month got buckwild for some reason ;; I'm gonna be recording a LOOOONG podcast episode today after lunch, which I hope will make up for the lack of a second recording. To make it up to you, I was thinking of filming a long process video? Like a real-time ambient video of me working on my holiday digital products. Does that sound good? Please let me know!

Hi y'all!! 'Tis time for questions! The end of November really got away from me for some reason β€” I've really dropped the ball on timing stuff. πŸ˜“I'm really sorry!! I know I'm asking for questions just before the weekend, but I'd love to film this on Monday or Tuesday, so it doesn't bleed too far into December. Again, sorry for the late ask!!

Here's this week's video! I had a really hard time editing this one together β€” there was so much sporadic footage that it was a challenge to edit it into something cohesive lolol.

Hello sweet friends! Happy mid-November 🌾I hope the month has been treating you well! I'm currently sat on the couch, watching Korean vlogs (specifically, Haegreendal, one of my faves) while my hair is drying in a towel on top of my head.

Hi friends!! Happy Monday!! Mostly because Biden won yaaaay! I recognize that there is a still a huge amount of work to be done and we gotta keep the pressure on him, but at least we don't have a fascist in office anymore :D

new tier babies :>

Hi!!! I made some new images for the tiers! The other ones were good but they're at least a year old at this point so I figured it was time for a refresh~~ I made them all tiny little darlings and I'm so fond of em πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜­πŸ’•I also renamed the "orange blossom" tier to "tangerine" so that all the tiers are one word and it's more fitting for the character I drew. 

Which one is your fave? (mine is the sprout 🌿) I hope you like them!!
