Metamorphic Meditation - Growth & Decay

This piece was so satisfying and cathartic to work on! A meditation on metamorphosis, I wanted to depict transformation and the juxtaposition of blooming life with equally vibrant decay. This is also the first painting (that wasn’t a commission) that I sold before completion! You can find prints, apparel, stationary and home goods with this design here.

Inktober Day 8

I’ve started connecting the last few Inktober drawing together into a single sheet, resembling tattoo flash. I also added some gold embellishments, to emphasize all the shining and illumination that are the focus of each of these designs (the fire of the grail, the shimmer of the crystal, the glowing lightbulb.) Working on smaller designs at any given time feels much less daunting than producing a full page image every day (plus, it looks pretty damn cool)! I may sell the finished page when I’m done!

Feeling Crafty

I turned my Stag Party fabric swatch into this cute hand sewn pouch with felt lining and a Velcro closure, and I can’t stop patting myself on the back about it. This project was fast, simple, frugal and useful – my favorite kind! 

A test swatch of this fabric is only $5 on my Spoonflower shop, and this pouch only needs one swatch – add the $1.50 felt for the lining, minimal thread, and whatever closure you have handy, and you’ve got a project you can make in a few hours for $10 or less.
