Celebrating #makeaterriblecomicday2025 and #pride in one panel. If you've already heard this one from me - you're welcome.
on top of a blue gradient are two red figures from the waist up. the first one's speech bubble is shaped like a question mark and read "how are you?" and the other responds with "I'm getting bi - cause I sure as hell ain't getting straight!"

risograph + collage = my submission for Hope & Rage: a Weirdo Collage Exhibit at ilk Lodge in honor of #worldcollageday. Purchases from this show will be donations to Community Print, Olympia’s oldest community print studio. More info in ⤵️
In a yellow field a white person with shiny eyes and dark hair hugs a blue wolf. The person's body is mostly obscured by the large wolf. The wolf is sitting and faces right. Behind the wolf's head is a red orb that radiates heart shapes. From the wolf's mouth oozes silver.

Drew some cute visuals to advertise the risograph classes I am now teaching 🌈
Risograph machine with eyes and a mouth for a scanner bed shouts “Risograph 101” next to two pieces of paper reading “with Aim Ren Beland” and “ @ Community Print Oly”.

Going with my friends to a paint-your-own-pottery place tonight and mocked up the light switch cover I hope to paint
Overlaid on a template of a light switch cover is an illustrated scene of a hillside. There are three hills and a mountain. The mountain has a face and is waving to three sheep closest to the viewer. There is also a little red hut, a rushing river and trees.
