Feeling pretty emotional after my first days back. I’m humbled by the love and support this community consistently shows me. Now more than ever, I’m so grateful to be in this space ❤️ #tattooartist #tattoos

First day back in a new shop, and the nerves are through the roof. Maybe one day I’ll be able to slightly alter my routine without feeling like I’m being hunted for sport. Not today, though. #tattooflash #tattoo #tattooartist

Can I be real? I feel like astrology only exists so people can tell you they’re a Scorpio.

Time to proof! Kind of thinking of turning this little buddy into a tote bag. I could use something soft and safe to carry around with me. #printmaking #linocut #printmaker #artist

Coping with anxiety=a million ongoing projects. Or maybe that’s just me dissociating…either way, it means more art. #workinprogress #printmaking #linocut #art

Pulled 22 prints today and only miffed up one! #printmaking #printmaker #linocut

Finally got back to having prints available for purchase online! Check out my Etsy shop if you’re interested, I’ll be adding a bunch of new stuff in the next week or so :)

Feeling super defeated. Building a new client base in a new city is hard. #tattoo #tattooartist

Drawing some bigger designs in the hopes that booking will pick up. #tattoo #tattooartist #sketch #illustration

Back to tattooing starting mid March! I have no idea how to build a new client base with meta refusing to show followers my posts though. Markets and word of mouth I guess. #tattoo #tattooartist #washington #tacoma

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

My pile of blocks to print keeps getting bigger. Paper and ink are expensive though, so I have to hold off until next payday. The wait is killing me! #printmaking #linocut #art #artist

Read it slowly and understand it. 😳🥺 Repost 👇🏾 👇🏾

Block 2 of 3 nearly finished #printmaking #linocut #artist #art

“God told me if I painted that mountain enough, I could have it.” I don’t know if O’Keeffe got her mountain, but I’ll keep painting flowers for the same reason. #painting

Started on the second bird. I’m intending to do three, that I’ll string together in a banner.

The vibe right now.

Looks like I’ll be picking up the needles again soon! #illustration #tattoo #tattooartist #sketchbook

Just posted the carving video for this block on my YouTube channel. Ready to get off the computer for a while! #printmaking #linocut #printmaker #art #reliefprintmaking

Help! I want to paint my little studio room, and I’ve overwhelmed myself with options. It’s very visible from the living room. Thoughts?

Finally finished setting up a patreon and switching over accounts. Everything just feels so surreal. All I can do is keep making weird stuff I guess. #printmaking #linocut #artist #reliefprint #prints

Unearthing some old prints, trying to sort out how to be an artist as the world burns. #printmaking #linocut #artist #prints
