Variations on a theme 🐍

A small sample of work I’m taking to the Oddities and Curiosities Expo in Minneapolis this weekend.

Working on my latest round of Lucha inspired pieces— keep fighting the good fight 💗

Stuff I’ve carved in the past seven days…. So far none are ready for final printing , some might never be ready but that’s the process right? Keep moving forward… #linocut #artlife #workinprogress

Experimenting with patterns and tessellating shapes… #sketchbooktour

Upcoming events…

In St Pete for the HEARTIZAAR event this Sunday! My old art wrap is still hanging in there in William’s Park

Feeling a bit rusty but trying to be productive in some small way… work in progress for mail art / free art distribution #linocut #mnstrong

February is approaching… I am teaching several classes and have events in Florida YAY can’t wait to see familiar faces and old stomping grounds… 🖤

Stuff to do! Art shows and classes scheduled for January!

I am making myself laugh with this 🤣

Newly carved stamp for my cat Lu! A show I’ll be at with other women artists in Minneapolis on Saturday and some of my other art and cat pics because always more cat pics lol

Next show… Holiday Bazaar, Dec 5-7 at Landmark Center in St Paul

Snowy weekend… happy first day of meteorological winter ❄️

Added a few things to my Etsy store craftyhag.etsy.com Also an advert for an event that I’ll be at in December and my furry adorable little Lu 💗

Pics from a foggy lake walk earlier today.

Recent work and my next two upcoming events… I’ll be at bruhaven Nov 22 and Dec 14, and world oddities expo on Nov 29– all in Minneapolis. I need some St. Paul shows!

Here’s my lovely Lu giving her opinion in my studio…. I carved this kitty krampus last winter but I think it somewhat resembles her 🤷‍♀️

Taught a few holiday themed classes last week… I appreciate people who make time to try new things!

Holiday stuff! Classes, markets and a huge ornamental sweet potato tuber I found when emptying a pot of flowers on my deck. Hoping a possum or something will eat it…

Winter elves in progress and my supervisor expressing her frustration with me…

Life imitating art… love this cat pic with my denim patch! Thanks to S.C. for sharing the adorable bad cat vibes 🤣

I’m offering a variety of classes in the coming weeks! I can’t believe we’re approaching the end of the year…. #artclass #tryit

Teaching at someplace I’ve never been before is exciting! See you tomorrow Marine Mills Folk School! Also I’m trying to think about holidays but my elves look like creeps… and I think I like it.

A few folks missed the leaf printing workshop so I’m offering it again at ALTR Gallery in Minneapolis ! Thanks otherworldlyarts collective ! @oacmn.bsky.social

Results from the leaf monoprinting class I offered on Monday evening at the white bear center for the arts

Busy weekend full of spooky art events coming up! 💀🤍👻

A little watercolor experiment after today’s walk… #natureinspired #artlife

Gods and Monsters is happening at ALTR Gallery October 18th 4-10pm! Gods & Monsters is a horror themed art exhibition featuring 180 artists, tarot readers and live music! One night only! Free entry but donations are ALWAYS appreciated!

Got to explore the world of needle felting last night at the textile center 👁️ Also here’s my upcoming schedule of shows and classes 💀 And my boss Lu who is insanely popular 💗

My current favorite creation… I don’t know why I don’t have as much creative time as I would like— but I’m happy with this guy for now. Carved last night and printed today 🖤 #linocut #art #printmaking

Thinking about upcoming events and what I want to make next…. Seems like more cat stuff is a must since I now have a new cat friend and a cat themed show on the schedule 😺

Looking forward to spending some time in the woods this weekend after my next event up north in Hackensack MN! So obviously I’ve been making tree art 💚 #art

Cats in my studio today… both the ghost and the corporeal varieties 🖤

The latest news… signed up for a new dark art market happening today in Minneapolis…. Newly carved zombie creep from my class yesterday … and some other things I made/started printing this past week. #art #rocknroll #linocut

Ready to rock this weekend— the first time the American craft council show has accepted printmaking artists and I am ready to make an impression! No pun intended 😜 Saturday 11-5 Sunday 11-4 #art #twincities

Video of merch in progress! My stickers and mugs are made by a person in Tennessee- small business, woman owned, always!
