I’m not sure what the solution to this is, but I can not be swiping through TikTok and run into a live stream of Perez Hilton viciously stabbing himself with a knife. I’m legitimately not gonna be able to sleep it was so gruesome

Went in for an adhd evaluation, and not surprisingly, he said I showed telltale symptoms. This line from his assessment made me laugh in particular cause uff “Erik was open and responsive to questions, but he sometimes provided lengthy and tangential response” Sir, must you drag me like this

I was trying to keep myself occupied and do my best to not to think about what is happening in my home city, so I painted this portrait study. Tempted to fuck around with it a little and experiment, but I’ll probably just hang it up in my studio and put it up for sale

I tabled at an anime convention this weekend and two little girls came up to my table and said my work was high in atheistic. Not sure exactly what that means, but I took it as a compliment

A few years back I made a poster for one of Minneapolis’s parks, and I finally got around to doing another one. Really happy with how it turned out

A fall day in the park. Looking through a couple tall cottonwood trees to a still pond and island in the background. The leaves reflecting on the still water. A small red fox walking past in the foreground

It’s been a long time since I’ve done a piece of fanart, and I’m not sure why, cause they’re so much fun to do

My work often has clients come through the studio to show what we’re working on, and one of their selling points is that, “we still do everything traditionally with no ai” and it just bums me out so much that they even have to say that

Wish I could pause adulting and get back to sewing... although I didn't get too far on my Miller High Life Moon Girl before the event was canceled, I really shouldn't put another project in limbo land.....

I started listening to Dungeon Crawler Carl about three weeks ago because a friend of mine recommended it, and I’m already almost finished with book six! I can’t decide if they’re just THAT good, or if I’m just trash, but man, have I had a good time with this series

Went to a home remodeling expo this morning, and while it felt good to get the ball running on these much needed renovations, the dawning that there’s so much to do and it’s not gonna be cheap was a punch to the gut

I have a couple clients in Taiwan that I do product design for, and I only hear from them maybe once or twice a year, but it’s always a thrill when I do, because I basically have free reign to design whatever I want

I bought everyone in my family books that I read this year, and gave them the one I thought they’d like the best for Christmas, and I hope they like it, but my gut tells me those gift receipts are gonna come in real handy for them…
