Experimenting with small #beadcurtain designs before making a valence : ) we want to make another butterfly and a beetle to go in between them !

A small brown, white, and green butterfly design made of pony beads in a hanging bead curtain style. It is tied to a string of beige yarn.

A photo of the design from farther away, showing that 2/3 of the string it is on is empty and that it is between two posters.

Can't help myself #ULTRAKILL

A traditional pencil drawing of Gabriel from ULTRAKILL, facing left, visible from the shoulders up. Overlaid over his helm is V1's hand holding a handgun and behind his head is the Can't Help Myself art installation surrounded by its puddle of "blood". A cross points up at the junction of his neck and chin.

Not quite what they mean for #InsertAnInvert2024 by a subterranean #invertebrate but nonetheless an animal that spends a considerable amount of its lifecycle below ground. 🐡🧪🌿 This is a small handmade linocut print of a large, well-loved, well-known insect with a long song. Tibicen canicularis, 🧵1/

A tiny horizontal rectangular Lino block print on white kozo or mulberry paper against a white background to make a square image, shows a dog-day cicada with outer wings outstretched. It is seen from above. Its body is largely black and brown with some pale green and golden yellow markings behind its eyes. Its segmented insect wings are green and beige with hints of yellow.

I have achalasia cardia, which hinders food movement to my stomach. A rare nerve condition affects one in a lakh.
Making art is soothing to my soul.

I expressed gratitude to loved ones for our shared memories.
Trying to keep calm and strong during my preparation for surgery.

My surgery is schedule on 3rd September 2025, at Sakra World Hospital, Marathahalli, Bangalore.
Keep me in your prayers!
