I made a second snoof. This one’s name is Snorf. #snoofsoftheworld

Snorf the blue snoof with blue and yellow button eyes and two foam fangs.

Needed to keep the creativity going today and was inspired by my bff @eclecticclay.com to create a #snoof. They don’t have a name yet but I’m sure one will reveal itself in due time.

I finished a passion project that started last year and debuted it at Pride yesterday. I wanted to combine my love of floriography with my skills as a felt artist, so I created a floriography Pride flag where each stem was chosen for its meaning or significance to the queer community.

Handmade felt flowers arranged in a progress Pride flag design.

Made some new stamps to use for stickers so people can point out slop.

Pride prep is well underway. Just made this zine exchange station for the booth I’m going to have with @eclecticclay.com.

Open cardboard box that says “take one, make one, leave one”

Open box with three shelves. On the bottom is a smaller box with folded paper

Completed and empty zines fill the zine exchange

Liberation, Not Assimilation. 🏳️‍⚧️💓🏴 Source: Damaged Artwork on Instagram (www.instagram.com/dmgd.artwrk)

Above a snake, in large, bold black lettering, reads: 'THERE'S NO QUEER LIBERATION UNTIL EVERYONE IS FREE' and 'EVERY GAY TRANSPOBE IS A TRAITOR'.

Below the snake, in smaller black text, is the phrase: 'QUEERS BASH BACK. FIGHT BACK OPPRESSION.'

The image is a vibrant pink poster with a confrontational design. A stylized snake illustration dominates the image, coiled tightly around barbed wire also twisted. The snake's scales are a dark black with accents of bright grey. Its mouth is open and its tongue is flicked out, suggesting aggression.

A thin black line separates this phrase from a further line of text at the bottom of the poster, which reads 'A DAMAGED ARTWORK WARNING.'

TMW you turn on the Sox-Padres game and Orsillo is making calls, Pivetta is pitching, and Bogey is up at bat. But then you realize that’s the Padres feed. Sigh.

Working on some brick face designs. Trying to decide if the Christopher Street design should say something like “party like it’s Christopher St in 1969” in a “pick up a brick and keep fighting” way not in a “woooo” way.

Got my first event of the Pride season tomorrow. My stuff is always queer, but even more so in June. These hoops have been a fun little new project to facilitate my carpal tunnel.

2 days until Pride, and the release of the Pride Eels! Locals will have the chance to get their eels at CNY Pride - @pipdolyn.bsky.social of The Studio At Longview Hill will be hosting a set of eels on June 21st! Unadopted eels will go online June 23rd. Visit www.cnypride.org for more info.

Seven clay sculptures of garden eels in the colors of pride flags - transgender, bisexual, lesbian, pansexual, non-binary, gay, and asexual - "planted" in teacups and displayed on a black wooden stand with four shelves. The stand sits on a glass table on a deck in front of a yard with forest behind it.

Today, at work, I get to host a craft day centered around queer history and DIY projects. We’re going to be making zines, pressing protest buttons/pins/badges, and block printing using styrofoam and/or lego. It’s open to anyone. Fingers crossed it goes well.

5 days to Pride, and the release of the Pride Eels! Today's repost features Pansexual Pride and Transgender Pride. The trans eels are where this all started; I owe my friend @pipdolyn.bsky.social a lot for the inspiration!

Clay sculpture of three garden eels in the colors of the pansexual pride flag - pink, yellow, and blue, with marbled fins - "planted" in a dainty white teacup and held by a hand in front of a forest.

Transgender Pride Eels! These guys have been in my head forever, and it feels good to finally get them out. Unlike my other eels, these guys feel no anxiety, only joy, which is exactly as it should be. 🏳️‍⚧️
