I know there are a lot of problems in the world, but my heart breaks a little every time I see another artist finally succumb to using AI.

Been printing a lot of new things in prep for a shop update. Death’s head hawk moths on purple rag paper, new editions of my claddagh and magnolia hand prints. Lots of other things I haven’t photographed yet. Gravitating toward shades of green and “pretty things” for this year. #art #linocut

One year ago - think I’ll throw on Lost Highway while I work today. #davidlynch #linocut #art

Did some quick test prints with the unicorn hex block today! A very pleasing little print. #art #linocut #folkart

Tonight’s carve: a little unicorn hex sign. Hex signs are rooted in Pennsylvania Dutch folk art (fraktur) and this double unicorn is a classic hex motif. #linocut #art

Did some test prints for Valentine’s garlands on glitter card stock. Going to see how long it takes for the ink to dry down, but it sure does look rad.

More subversive work… #letterpress #printmaking #ice

Stuck for printing ideas so I've been doing some #embroidery #sewing #needlework #flowers #skeleton #skull

Sometimes the light's all shinin' on me Other times I can barely see Lately it occurs to me What a long, strange trip it's been

My favorite thing about looking at almost any website on a phone in the year 2026 is that the page will randomly stop loading because of all the ads on it and then you can never finish reading whatever it was you were looking at. #maketheinternetusableagain

my favorite cup of tea: oolong that's been slightly over steeped with one big spoonful of sugar

A new carving and a sentiment I’ve been thinking about a lot. (Print people: The image is flipped so you can read the text, have no fear!) #artsky #printsky #art #illustration

Every few weeks, the person who was the first one to talk to me at freshman orientation in college 25 years ago (and I haven’t seen since graduating) sends me random memes on Instagram that make her think of me, and I think that’s nice.

Every day in America is so fucking devastating.

Starting the day off with someone placing a big order for 8 prints- thank you universe!

Christmas II (which was actually was our third Christmas celebration) went pretty hard, and now we can officially retire the festive season.

A running joke with @patterned.bsky.social is that neither of us know what HAMNET is and we both aggressively refuse to look it up.

My mother in law gave me a giant 3 lb chocolate Santa for Christmas, and every few days I’ve been carving off a chunk and then cutting that down into smaller pieces to eat and have begun referring to this process as “harvesting and processing Santa”

Great news: the Internet Archive has a 1987 Mark Knopfler pocket calendar that you can reuse in 2026!

Ending 2025 in true old person fashion by watching old twilight zone episodes and eating a giant bowl of air popped popcorn.

Taking a nap in a sweater: cozy when you fall asleep, disorienting and terrible upon waking.

My mother in law kept talking about wanting Coors Light and we picked some up on the way over today, so now I’m having a post-Christmas Coors Light.

Merry Christmas! Please enjoy this insanely beautiful & cinematic Wham! Video in 4K that was restored from the original 35mm footage.

Some figgy pudding for Christmas Eve 💫 #cats #linocut #illustrator #artsky

We’re having weird warm windy winter weather today. I made this wind cloud in the spring, when we had what felt like endless weeks of wind. #linocut #art #celestial #printsky

Happy “Nicole Kidman eating Snackwell’s and smoking a cig by the glow of the kitchen tv” season to all who celebrate. #eyeswideshut

Knight time is the right time 🌞

In 2019 I lost my job (that broke my brain/spirit in a million ways) and listened to my inner voice that said “now you have the time to commit to making art again” and 6 years later, I am a different person. Life ebbs and flows, but it’s one of the best decisions I ever made and changed in who I am.

Among other things, in 2026 I hope we can admit that those prebiotic health sodas do not, in fact, taste just as good as a regular soda.

Loons, pigeons, turkey vultures, cats and sandworms. #linocut #art #printsky

They used to "laugh and call him names." Now they're all dead

Frosty winter morning, I’ve had chai followed by some oolong tea and now I’m ready for action.

Bless the other artists and small biz people who are in the final hustle week of the season. May the odds be ever in your favor.

Life is meaningless without fun little carves.

Oh yeah, this week’s #lastfourwatched

A collection of my bird lino prints, ready to ship off for holiday gifts. Loons, raven, anhinga, great horned owl and turkey vulture. Shipping deadlines loom near; order by December 15th for arrival before Christmas. 🦅 patterned.etsy.com

Our household received a truly delightful & perfectly curated Christmas care package from @lehah.bsky.social today, which among other things includes Xmas Haribo AND an autographed photo of Vincent D’Onofrio from the Cell

Devils drying on the line. #linocut #art #printsky

Textures from today: winter accessories/holly berries

Birthday beats for Tom Waits. From my linocut series #alphabetofmusicians where I taught myself reduction printing over the course of a year. Huge thanks to Derek Ridgers - one of the greatest portrait photographers of his generation - who kindly let me adapt his photo for the linocut illustration.

Beasts for the month December: Figgy Pudding cats, Krampus, Capricorn and the rat king. 🐀 👑 #artsky #printsky #linocut #illustrator #art
