queued to post - pre-orders for my 2026 LNY envelopes open on slump.town beginning 1/1, fulfillment TBD but you'll get em before the actual first day of the new year. featuring a pegasus and a knight chesspiece on this year's designs! screenprinting these by myself as usual.

all my checkerboard cookies throughout the years!!! (the checkerboards get smaller)

happy belated solstice! plain tangyuan in sweet ginger soup, in classic slumptown blue, pink, and white. did lazy daisy flowers for the "special" shape this year bc I'm creatively bankrupt

I made my yearly checkerboard shortbread! used blue butterfly pea for colorant this time, with vanilla and coffee oolong for the darker squares

slump(dot)town is open now through 12/30, 5pm PST! come grab some last-minute gifts... they won't arrive in time for xmas, but you'll get them super early in the new year!

y'know what. after being given only a 4 ft table to work with today I actually do think I could benefit from a smaller setup. look ma no gaps

gonna start using my patreon as a blog because every other platform has an annoying character limit. anyway here's my goofy gift guide for idk. someone in your life who has the exact same taste as me?? haha www.patreon.com/posts/mayors...

loveeeee these hand-drawn, vintage-inspired fonts. the best part is the super straightforward licensing!! just a one-time purchase for all uses, only 2 price points based on company size. great for solo ops & small studios! taylorpenton.com/collections/... #designresources

my gogh room is open for the next 4 hrs while i catch up on client work (been slacking too much playing silksong lmao): 109775244940203038

Ceramic vegetable vases. www.instagram.com/eleonorejoul... You’re welcome.

didn't think I'd be spending my wednesday evening watching the microsoft excel world championship finals but here we are and it is legitimately such an interesting e-sport

most of you don't know what i actually look like! let's keep it that way :)

forgot it's that time of year again

closing out the year with two small oakland events & a shop update for leftovers (in-stock only)! and then i'm going on a ~2 week break in January :)

just finished setting up! see you friday

here's my catalogue for this weekend at booth [G13] @ SJMADE holiday fair! will have all the stuff from the most recent preorder plus some in-person exclusives... and misprints/stragglers from designs not pictured

all my small scale woodworking in one picture! slumptown lightbox and ALL the wooden flowers I made & painted

i am just going crazy style in the maker space (parents' garage) this week. the crunch is REAL

DIY lightbox saved me the $300 (minus materials cost) a fabrication company would've charged me. still gotta stain the wood, paper insert is prototype only. the goal is to practice sign lettering and do "slumptown" in red directly on that acrylic

also I bought screen opener with my last supply restock and hooooooly crap did my life just get a million times easier

loot from today's studio session! i exposed + printed the captcha tee demo run and painted a bunch of flowers for blind boxes. yippee

film is printed, will attempt to expose the screen for this captcha shirt design tomorrow! wish me luck

just cranked this out - it's the central graphic from my heritage bandana, with pixelated distortion and a bunch of fake captchas on it. i have the blanks for the beige ready so I'm gonna try to make stuff in time for holiday fair nxt week but I'm wondering if lime on charcoal is anything?

fun little comp of portraits i drew based on street/shop cat photos my mom sent me from hong kong, to be featured on a sticker sheet i'll have at holiday fair next week! big text on the front reads "事情不必如此 (things don't have to be this way)" and endcard is "you can just become a shop cat instead"

reminder that my store is open thru saturday! I need to get back to production mode... haha... but I have 7 client projects due at the end of the month 💀

lol this might be the craziest room i've ever joined... the art prison???? signs at the top say "work hard at drawing, get out of jail early" and the ambient sound is just thunder and clock ticking

room's open again. come join me on gogh for the next 3-ish hours or so: 109775244309774333

comparison photo of the polyester (L) and silk (R) versions of my heritage bandana design. silk is lightweight & see-through with a deeper cyan-toned print, polyester has a white opaque base with a lighter colored design & a heavier, silkier feel. silk requires special care!

posting this here too! 10 games to get to know me (as you can probably tell by this dated list i don't really game that much anymore lol)

sorry i keep open/closing the room to add more decor lmfao I PROMISE I AM DONE! focus time only now gogh room ID: 109775244218514975

started using gogh last night, got caught up in the room deco part of things and completely forgot it was a productivity app (i am not done decorating)

LIVE NOW! :D

I *finally* took my own set of photos of the mooncake box I worked on for Bake Sum this year omg... I went with blue & white porcelain theme and focused deco on the sides of the box since it's the most visible part. mooncake molds by Jackie Chou are the same as last year's.
