I am making quilts and just-for-fun websites until the print shop thaws. I am making lots and lots of mistakes and I am dangerously near Baltimore's most bougie quilt shop. #wip #art #textiles #quilting

I <3 #Mastodon! In my non-art life it's the only social media I use except for Signal stories. It's not as "good" for commercial purposes and the whole "growing an audience thing." But the world is on fire and I am more into meaningful connections than growth mastodon.social/@spottyboypr...

Back in Feb, @ryancordell.org shared this incredible woodcut from @skeuomorphpress.org collection. He shared the original illustrator file for all! I was so inspired by this woodcut, I wanted to clean it up and redistribute it to the public 🧵 1/2 #printsky #academicsky #typophile

A digitally drawn recreation of a woodcut image. A printing press is in the center with clouds and a sunrise behind it, with a banner above that says, “the tyrants foe, the people’s friend”

A new body of work in a new direction. This is the first in a series about the open web, life beyond platforms, and making the internet joyous. And how learning to build my own website kind of radicalized me. #drawing #wip #linocut #indieweb #printmaking

non-art-Q: is every rare disease community still on FB? I have an #IgG2 subclass #immunodeficiency after #longcovid. It mostly means I get gnarly infections and lately I keep failing antibiotics and staying down. I'm sick at home waiting for my immunologist to call back #selectiveantibodydeficiency

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Hello Bluesky! I'm Rosanna. I make linoprints. Here is one I made before Christmas. Quarter to Six.
