As an artist that also loves collecting art, IMO some of the best pieces don’t demand attention. They hold it patiently, waiting for the right moment to be noticed again. Who else feels this??

Some people choose their goddess. Some people realize she was already theirs. I created a short quiz to see which Dark Pantheon figure aligns with you most right now. It takes less than two minutes to complete. Take the quiz and comment below - who did you get? 👉 app.youform.com/forms/vepvjqg0

graphic of 8 gold-plated greek goddess enamel pins (hekate, persephone, nyx, artemis, eris, athena, medusa, and nemesis) with text above that reads "which figure of the dark pantheon guides you?" and button at the bottom that reads "take the quiz!"

I wanted Persephone to feel whole. Not split, not torn, but moving freely between both. vegetation and decay coexist. . 🌸🍂 Back the Dark Pantheon Enamel Pin Kickstarter to claim Persephone 👉 www.kickstarter.com/projects/jos... #art #kickstarter #enamelpin #greekmythology

I bought myself paint pens. I think this is a great example of social media making something look easy… but it’s not! I think you really have to be patient (not my forte) or you will find the paints/colours get muddled. And I didn’t realize how big a medium tip is. I do like how prismatic they are!

I love that though. Collabs are great. And also, I barely draw stick figures. The hardest thing to draw is a circle tbh😆

I was wondering why I was getting a big influx of people or groups now asking to feature me. Then I remembered that it's almost Black History Month. I know they mostly mean well. But Black people deserve to be celebrated year round and not just when it's popular to do so.
