I actually made a new postcard, but I didn’t save it to my google drive and I’m currently traveling! Am at Milkwood/a kids book residency program as we speak! So I only have this one to repost. Still in mermaid world!

You might’ve heard me say: the goal of a creative practice is to refine what you’ve made until you can bear witness to it with a quiet mind—free from the whisper of an urge to change anything.
Thinking this morning that—bearing witness to whatever you’ve made—you should also have a full heart.

I don’t often get the opportunity to make work that explores themes of anger, feralness, or betrayal. But all of those feelings are really relevant for my opinions about the state of the world right now, so this piece has offered a bit of catharsis

I have a new header image! It’s part of an image featuring a selkie, so I think it counts as a #mermay illustration??

This is insane. Republicans have inserted language into the budget reconciliation bill that would ban states from regulating AI in any capacity for 10 years.

A couple of recent WIPs. I tracked down a couple of vintage Ivan Bilibin books and am really inspired by the use of borders as storytelling motifs!
Hope to finish these two pieces this month to go along with my new website launch!

I’ve been chipping away at this big illustration for a while now. I wanted to challenge myself to do some detailed rendering, mostly in spite of ai. And since I didn’t have a deadline attached to this, it’s probably the longest I’ve ever spent on one piece!

Mahmoud Khalil expressed his political point of view peacefully.
That’s supposed to be permitted in a democracy.
If this egregious assault on civil liberties stands, what’s to stop Trump from arresting American citizens who support any cause his regime doesn’t like?

Hello! My first post here is a quick light study I did somewhat recently using gouache. I am an author and illustrator with a BFA from Emily Carr University of Art and Design (as of this May), who is passionate about character driven stories set in fantastical worlds:)
