I am a 35 year old stay-at-home weirdo and creative forest hermit. I’m currently working on my first graphic novel, A CURIOUS STORM. I have no idea what I’m doing, but it’s going to be an adventure figuring it out.
I’m a wisened Scorpio with a Psych degree (oh, boy) and a very curious person. While I’m no stranger to loss and grief, I always try to notice the everyday wonders around us and instill that perspective in my children.
I’m excited to explore this new place with beautiful weirdos that share my love and enthusiasm for all things strange.
I usually do a warm-up painting to figure out colors and to loosen up. And, because I`m spooky, I like to find faces in it...ππ»π€π€
βοΈπ€The other me appears behind me when I walk into the light. She holds my hand, takes my grief, dissolves into the night... π

π€π€π€ this hair brought to u by aerosol hairspray and 7 pins holding this f*cking headband in place. The hair rejects my authority.
i dont have anymore energy or time left for self-doubt or worry or depression. i am quite literally adopting the strategy of `faking it until i make it.` will i actually accomplish my goal of creating a graphic novel? yes. yes, i f*cking will because questioning my own resolve and ability is super stupid. i can do the thing, so i just need to shut up and get out of my own way. i will live with a disgusting amount of undeserved confidence and create something awesome...at least to me. π€
My daughter told me my hair looked like a jellyfish when we were at the grocery store. How did I react? I bobbed and bounced my head in the dairy aisle and said `how about now?` When I looked back at her she was rounding the corner to the next aisle. I am a great mom. ππ
Sifting and compiling art and poems. Thinking about making a book to print for myself. I guess we`ll see how it goes. Too many projects... here are 2 poems from the last year that I actually like. π€

I am a Sucker for stationary... I have to be careful not to spend my money on all of these. Lol. That would kinda negate the purpose of the whole shop thing π€£π€£
Trying to figure out what piece of art fits with what item is quite a fun puzzle... π€ ππ€
