🕯️Manifesting 🕯️

Big day for people who care about other people

A seeming bit of history tonight as Ghazala Hashmi becomes the first Asian American to win statewide office in Virginia - and the first Muslim woman to win statewide office *anywhere* in the United States.

Mamdani: "Yes, aunties."

me to others: it's hard right now. be gentle with yourself me to me: wtf is wrong with you

I have submitted the final art for my current book project. The author loves it. I AM FREE! I will now take my post-project week long rest and then use all my spare time getting ready for the holidays and cleaning. Huzzah! ✨

My boys. 🥰

It's hard to be an artist, even harder to not be one

True connoisseurs know that the day after Halloween, when all the leftover body parts go on sale, is actually the best day to begin construction of your monster.

The youth has recognized us as THAT house for Halloween! The kids were waiting in line and hyping us up saying we always have the best stuff AND we give out books. I'm so happy they're actually excited about the books. We had 7 trick-or-treaters our first year here. Last night we had about 30!

My weather obsessed 2 year old has discovered that I can draw so I am "making wightning and storm cwouds" on demand.

!!!!!!!!!

Happy October! This month I wanted to draw what kindergarten class would look like if one of them was a witch. I am an illustrator interested in telling fantastical and funny stories, and I am looking for representation. #kidlitartpostcard #witch #kidlitart #illustration #halloween #inktober

Watching young children's programming like Weather Hunters, Carl the Collector, and the new Blue's Clues makes me feel like I missed a calling for writing. With all the trash there's still some really good kids tv out there.

Behold! A lego creation from the mind of my awesome toddler.

I've been watching School House Rock with my 2 year old this week and honestly I think a lot of adults could still benefit from having them on repeat.

I am simply incapable of singing along in unison. I MUST sing in harmony always.

I'm moving my pins and things to a bigger box and found this. @breelundberg.com, what's this worth now? 👀

Are you an AI hater? Then these pins are for you! Just dropped in my shop! Made from eco-friendly recycled acrylic. ✨ shop.breelundberg.com/product/anti...

Hey #kidlitart peps - some of you have asked for a Discord so you can keep chatting when it’s not chat day. I wanna do an interest check - if you want a Discord, reply with a 💜 ? #kidlit #illustration #art

Visa says they're still drowning today! Payment processors think that we're not organized enough to keep this up but it's we either prove them wrong or submit to global censorship so it's. not much of a contest. Keep calling all 4!!

looked up the clip just because sometimes people change his words for captions that end up innocently reshared, but upon finding it decided to share the video because hearing him say it makes it 1000% more definitely true and everyone will listen/believe more than reading it written out

Illustrator friends! Does anyone have any good tips for drawing a character consistently? Outside of practice and drawing the character multiple times, do you have a tip that really helps you out? I can do it, but I feel like I'm spending too much time on it??? #kidlit

I finally watched KPop Demon Hunters and yes. ✨️

This Thursday is #KidLitArtPostcard day again! #kidlitart

Found this really neat cicada shell in our yard.
