iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

In #SpaceArtist news, my shop is down, as I transition to a different platform, again, again. My having time for art (and jewelry) making is contingent on an as-yet unforeseen financial windfall allowing me to break free from my job. That said, I do have two big series/projects in the works.

Older childhood: Video Village in Mount Shasta, a small town rental place with a large selection, and one section in a side closet with large swinging doors l was never allowed into. My friends ran up hundreds of dollars in late fees because they were too ADHD to remember to return their rentals.

Young childhood: a mini mart a few miles down the road had a small rental section, big VHS cases for all the Disney movies. (It was the 80s.) My grandparents gave us a second VCR so we could copy my favorites. I watched Sleeping Beauty and the Star Wars trilogy on a weekly basis.

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

So much more than a Country Music Superstar. Philanthropist, humanitarian, defender of diversity & fierce advocate for the working class, she helped fund the Moderna Covid vaccine & donated 332+ million books to children. Thank you, Dolly. We will always love you.♥️ #RIP

Dolly Parton, among a thousand other amazing things she did in her life, gifted over 330 million books to kids through her Imagination Library program. Her passing is a tremendous loss to the world, but you can support the program today to keep it going imaginationlibrary.com

Same. It doesn’t remove the 19-month trauma of cleaning out his ADHD hoarder house and property, but it gave me a context to better understand it, and him. The diagnosis gave me a lot of feels, but also a lot of unexpected peace and closure, clearing baggage in ways I never dreamt possible.

Danielle Rose Baker 🚀 @planetaryartist.com · 11/08/2026

“Get over it” is what was implied. At first I was angry with my folks for not seeing my struggles, but when I realized they too were ND and undiagnosed… how could they possibly notice what they didn’t know was “wrong”? Or as my counselor put it, how could my childhood have gone any differently? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Danielle Rose Baker 🚀 @planetaryartist.com · 11/08/2026

It put everything in my childhood (and adulthood, let’s be real) into a new clarity. All my educational “failures”, all my careers, everything. It’s been a lot of emotions. It’s been A LOT, period. But I’m grateful for the knowledge, and at least now I can try to work with it instead of against it.

Danielle Rose Baker 🚀 @planetaryartist.com · 11/08/2026

I haven’t said much about my diagnosis online—certainly I haven’t said ENOUGH about it—but in classic ADHD fashion, I have an overwhelming amount of things to do, therefore I’m tempted to start a newsletter or blog called “My Weird Brain”. 😑

My AuDHD diagnosis “late” at 47, is what made me see the signs in my late father (and my mother, not that I’m ready to have that conversation with her.) We’ve been here all along. It’s us finally being f*cking SEEN. Especially us ND women who mask so heavily we don’t even know how not to do so.

And if you have family history of colon cancer, the current guidelines are to get your colonoscopy at TEN YEARS younger than the family member’s diagnosis. I found this out as I was diagnosed with colon cancer at 41, same age as my dad was. Should’ve done it at 31. Knowledge is power!!

A vast cloud of dust and gas, mainly orange, pops in this image in which hazier, fainter gas paints reds and greens in the background.

In the past, I didn’t know how to feel about her. In recent months (since my diagnosis), I’m much more sympathetic: she was AuDHD and had no idea what was “wrong” with her, why she couldn’t fit in better, why she couldn’t just _______ like everyone else. It’s been a heartbreaking exploration, tbh.

Ah yes, round two… that’s when the gag reflex kicks in. Best of luck, my man. 🫡 Trust me, this is 100% the worst part. The actual event tomorrow? Cake by comparison. May your results be very boring, and your after-meal extremely yummy.

I completed two coasters for our local coaster show, both Project Hail Mary themed. And here they are!

I’ve been on a bit of a social media break—unintentional, at first, but also it’s been a busy summer. I do have two wee paintings to share though! Hope to do more in the months to come. There will be jewelry-making also. 😬

I was today years old (and 25 years graduated) when I first encountered a fellow program alum from my tiny now-defunct geology department in southern Oregon. Proof that, as horrible as the internet can be, there are still parts that remind us that the world is charmingly, delightfully small. 🪨

Danielle Rose Baker 🚀 @planetaryartist.com · 06/08/2026

That looks disturbingly like MY alma mater’s decapitated geology department. I haven’t had the heart to go back and look, I know everything I loved (even the orange break room, weirdly enough) is gone.

In other art news, my site is (probably) down while I rebuild a small site in WordPress. No sales = no justification for the cost of Shopify. 😑 I will be back though!!

Danielle Rose Baker 🚀 @planetaryartist.com · 06/07/2026

I guess I should add, these WILL be available for sale online through Central Art Gallery, after the opening, but you can’t have it until the show closes in September. 🤷🏼‍♀️ if anyone wants one, they’ll be $50 each.
