In addition to not killing my dexterity, I'm working on savoring every second of October. It's my favorite month (I feel this is obvious) & goes so quickly. I'm trying to teach myself to pay attention to time. I have no internal clock at all; time just slips by me. Bullet journal save me 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Close up photo of an October calendar page in a journal. Lots of dark celestial stickers and pasted in parchment paper.

Could someone come tie me up and force me to resist the Inktober fomo? I still have fucked up arm & hand nerves & it's a terrible idea. I miss it already though 😭

'Holler Dragon' is my favorite ever piece. #b&wart #traditionalart #appalachia

Black and white drawing with stylish patterning of a deer with a snake's tale and sparrow wings. It's on a black ground with scattered stars.

I'm not sure exactly what my neurotype is, but it's the one where I never watched most of the last two seasons of Supernatural, so I had to start with S1 Episode 1 and rewatch the whole series until I catch up 😅

I need people to take it seriously selfishly because I use it to explain ME/CFS/post-viral syndrome after mono. There's a virulent wave of eugenics where people are saying terrible things to sick/disabled people. I've never seen it this bad.

Making ACEO sets with a shared element. So far I've done a thunderstorm with the clouds all painted together so it's one storm across the set, and these with Percy Shelley's poem The Moon written across the set so each one has a fragment of the poem. #aceo #atc #poetry #traditionalart

Series of art trading cards (ACEOs) lined up side by side. Each has a circle over messy gold leafing, and a poem and linework on the bottom.

Gold, black, white & grey ACEO art cards. One is flipped over to show they're called Percy Shelley Moon Series, with my signature at the bottom.

It's so important to keep a strong friendship with your former spouse, so you can gossip about art scene stuff.

I'm an artist. If you're tagged as *ever* posting AI images, I use the nuclear block. If there's an AI user blocklist, I want it. It's fucking war out here for creatives.

Some thunderstorm ACEOs. These were so much fun. I painted them all on one sheet so it's like they're all snapshots of one storm. It's been fun to be looser and painterly with these. #aceo #atc #traditionalart

Slightly haunted rabbit from back when I was still new to figuring out how linocut works. Would be super fun to revisit this one when I have time. #throwback #art #artsky #crafts #traditionalart #blockprint #print #printmaking #printsky #ink #linocut

This 👇👇👇 🎨

💚 Your artist and designer friends probably aren't as full of themselves as you think.

Please remember: they share their work and accomplishments all the time as a matter of survival. No one else will be their hype man.

That grant? It's the only thing keeping them going during these slow months.

This flashy opportunity? They have been trying to make it happen for a year with only hope to keep them going and it's finally happening!

That exhibit? It's the only one they got into out of the 15 they submitted for.

That new painting they posted? They kinda need it to sell so they can pay the rent next month.

So be kind in your thoughts. Imagine if your job required social media presence on four platforms to make sure ends meet.

And if you see your friends or acquaintances post art that you like, please share it! It can make all the difference sometimes.

💚

Pretty awesome that you can have a migraine and your ears produce their own sound and it's a note that doesn't exist anywhere else and it sounds like nausea feels.

Prairie ghost

A spectral skull headed bobolink sings in front of a subdivision built over its previous prairie home. Grasses are in the foreground. The bird is perched on a barbed wire. Prairie grasses fade into a town street in the background. A large sun blazes in a red sky.

I can file a DBA for $25 👀 So I could choose a name to use professionally without the incredible hassle of changing my legal name. Never went back to my maiden name (though it's my middle name now) bc because it's a patronymic, not to mention my family issues. Plus the aforementioned hassle.

Sorry I'm not sadder about a CEO Girlboss, CIA-red-scare-op, anti-intersectional feminist. Truly Dolly hurt more because, without claiming feminist identity, she was an actual fucking badass doing a lot of the material work of improving women's & girls' lives.

Today's mood is wishing my Dad wasn't a transphobic fuckhead because I want to learn to brew mead and that man is a Level 500 homebrewing wizard. I also miss free, delicious pumpkon beer. No one talks about the true pain of estrangement.

I forgot one of the reasons I don't make my visual content explicitly about being a disabled artist is that the minute I do, some cis man with a devotee fetish slides into my DMs. Without immediately asking for my CashApp 😂

Did Harry Potter create a generation of readers, or did it simply create a generation of Harry Potter fans? Did JKKK Rowling save literacy? That's been the narrative for decades... but the facts tell a totally different story. youtu.be/LmfFpg15ECI

Church porch as excommunicate outreach. Church porch as corpse pause, corpse watch. Church porch as threshold, as site of loosing and binding. Half-consecrated, beyond the blessing of water, wine, salt and ash. Neither in nor out and therefore a place of magics. – #CLNolan
