U.S customers, my miniature paintings are exempt from tariffs, so the postage remains much the same!

Two Little Birds 🐦🐦

This one is a mixed media artwork, textiles and spun cotton. I love how they are so sweet.
They are handmade designed to be perfectly imperfect and beautifully weird.

“Changing leaves” ✏️ ❤️💙 #Caitvi #StillFantastic #Inktober
Colored pencil drawing of a maple leaf divided into red and blue halves, filled with intricate gear and jewel-like patterns inspired by Arcane’s Vi and Caitlyn. The leaf rests on beige paper with red and blue pencils beside it, symbolizing change and duality for the ‘changing leaves’ theme.

Robins are sometimes known as guardians of cemeteries. Due to their fearless nature and presence around graves, robins are sometimes believed to be waiting for the souls of the deceased to accompany them on their journey to the afterlife.
Art my own.
