We lost one of my heroes today. Rest in peace and in power, Alice Wong.

I got the idea for this drawing by reading a list of divination methods: ailuromancy is when you observe how a cat jumps and falls. I suppose it’s as good as tea leaves 🤷

I’m ok with my first ceramic trinkets, except the clear glaze wasn’t thick enough. I want to make more, but first I have to paint a few more of my dad’s bowls #art #ceramics #pottery

I finally grouped the Hyperfocus series together so it's easier to find in my shop: all the eyes and lenses prints here 👁️👁️ elizastein.com/product-tag/... #art #bsnm #illustration

I’m going to be incredibly sad if used cds stop being a cheap secret. Just don’t tell any thrift shop owners!

Almost done inking my Snoopy fan comic for @peanutscollab.bsky.social

Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

reminds me of a pipilotti rist installation

X-rays were discovered on this day November 8 in 1895, by physicist Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, allowing us to see inside the human body. 🧶 This free knitting pattern for X-Ray Mittens or Gloves designed by Marjukka Vuorisalo is on my fun handwear post intheloopknitting.com/fun-mitten-a...

Sent this year’s first full box of crochet winter clothing to Knit the Rainbow! knittherainbow.org 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🧶

ok, i made my first two child ballads playlists public on my youtube channel, while i reassemble them- follow along to hear what gets added next! www.youtube.com/@ElizaStein-... #folkmusic #folklore #musicsky

Finally rehoming my sprawling Child Ballads playlist to YouTube, for now. Also working on a fun companion playlist, and hoping to finish my other sprawling folk music index playlists there!! #folkmusic

I think a lot about the story Carl Reiner told: he’d have been a sewing machine repairman if not for a free WPA drama class. That led to other theater work, to Sid Caesar, to Mel Brooks, and all the rest. All because of one free class paid for by a government that felt the arts were worth teaching.

The “sushi sandwich” from this long gone vegetarian restaurant: French bread, marinated tofu, cucumber strips, nori, pickled ginger, spicy or regular mayo. Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it!

I got a few paper samples to scan and use as backgrounds and/or textures. The dark purplish one has real leaves in it 🍂

Here is a bit of early Xmas art for #kidlitartpostcard day! I am working on my first two picture book manuscripts, but I am always available for projects! I especially love doing holiday illustrations: you can find many more examples in my portfolio and shop. #kidlitart #kidlitpostcard

i just restocked some nearly sold out holiday cards, like these cozy dogs: www.etsy.com/shop/elizast... #bsnm #art

Hell yeah. No one on the team who gives a shit about the city should be anywhere near the White House right now.

Ok this IS my new favorite hat pattern, now that I’ve finished it 😅 it’s time consuming bc of the sock weight yarn but worth it! Pattern & yarn details in the alt text 🧶

I’m watching a livestream of the marathon and the host just said “that guy looks like borat. Hi borat!”

It's the time of year again -- time to do your holiday shopping from independent artists. It's more important than ever to support people actually making stuff! If you're an artist or craftsperson of any kind, please reply to this with what you make and a link to your store and I'll share it!

🌼 Día de los Muertos 🌼

Aww, I used to do this too. She could also work in archives one day 😉

The blue jays are making it weird already 😎

I started painting pottery this year, starting with this bowl, vase, and dish my dad made. I’d really like to enter the whole set in a group show elizastein.com/portfolio-2/...

Tiny test: new underglaze colors and combos on these ornaments I made 🤞 #art #ceramics #pottery

If anyone started babbling to me about how a politician’s aunt is really his cousin I’d be like, are you lost? Let’s get you somewhere safe.

I had to paint a lacewing for #invertober! #invertebrates

i decided i didn't want to look at Barney trying on and rejecting a silly costume, so here he is embodying the spirit of autumn instead:

These look like tiny glowing lanterns 🏮
