feeling broken by society and put back together by nature; but some of the pieces have shattered or gone missing. having markers and paper and water color pencils and friends to be with when broken is a gift.

it’s a long journey. put what you no longer need in this box to lighten your load. I’m adding a few things I’ce been hanging onto for years out of habit. Turns out they are familiar, but still just weighing me down and making the trek a lot harder. Speaking of harder: trying to learn water color and ooo-eee am ai being taught!

brb just trying to burn this into my retinas like Mark S. in Severance. Fine, I’ll just stick these notes across my apartment instead. Eye health and all. But damn this anxious feeling that “i messed up some unkown thing very bad” is a constant bummer of a sidekick these past few days. I think that maybe my brain can’t figure out what my heart is feeling. I think I feel deeply unsettled in a deeply unsettling time. I think nobody is mad at me, even though my anxious brain yells otherwise and invents some detailed and seriously believable story lines. Maybe it’s helpful for you also to know that nobody is mad at you and you are a very stellar + worthy human being living in an impossiblly difficult reality. I hope you can look at the stars tonight.

Repost from a few years back because the whole government feels like this dude right now. Don’t let the size of their hubris fool ya. We are so much bigger than they are. ***Cis white male power - it’s a heck of a drug. This is how small I feel when I get yelled at in public by a maskless stranger who almost hit me with their car. Your gaslighting doesn’t work here, buddy. I’m not small, but your actions definitely are. The best revenge? Drawing him with stains on his pants and stupid shoes.

substanial and nimble and messy, with bits of salt that get into the corners and are impossible to root out. ••iD: Drawing of a pretzel in marker on paper. Hand drawn text says “Soft like a pretel. Hard like a pretzel.”

100% of proceeds of this print will be given to mutual aid efforts to support recovery from the LA fires through @solidarityprojects @berniescoffeeshop @chevronoutofpalestine. You know where the link is 💙Los Angeles has given me so much. In many ways it gave me my self back. The self that wrote the poem on slide 2. When my life went crashing apart, this place and its energy picked me up. It was the energy of the streets, the people, the river, the ocean, that put a pen back in my hand. That drove me to draw again. To write again. To reconnect with a lifeline I had discarded long ago. And with the kindness of LA, I found that again. And then I discovered all these other missing parts of myself that I never knew I had. Just scattered around the alleys and secret desert corners of LA County. And it is this magic that defines LA to me. A kind and generous place filled with people who bid each other farewell with “ride safe!” A place where mutual aid has been protecting communities long after its government has abandoned them. A place that I love, where so many people I love live. Thanks for spreading some kindness in this dark time for LA. Los Angeles, I’m yours. Free Palestine.

Los Angeles, I’m yours. 💔 Heartsick and acting for a world that doesn’t burn where animals live and humans call home. In solidarity with all who are living, acting, working to move these dots closer together. An original of this watercolor+marker piece will be available for auction next month through @artiststakeaction. Print fundraiser for mutual aid at the link in my bi0

My anxiety is at a peak, and maybe yours is too? This tool helps me, and might help you, too? I only ever make it to about 15 seconds, at my most focused, before thoughts sneak in - don’t judge yourself on thoughts coming onto the palette. Just thank them and send them on their way! This is YOUR minute 💙•••ID: Drawing in ink on paper of a blank canvas on a canvas stand. Above the drawing are the words “Close yours eyes and picture a blank canvas.” Below are the words “try to keep it blank for one minute.”

Take whichever Rizzo suits you most 🕰️ This day always has me feeling especially emo, so here are some mulpet / sad lyric mashups about the big t-word. Time may be a circle, but it has some damn sharp edges of late. DMs are open if you’re struggling 💙 Also, if you are able to DM me the bands from each slide, you are my music twin, and I’ll send you a sticker pack and a mixed CD!

I’m 41 today, glad to have finally made it to another prime number. Feeling lots feelings, per usual. Most of all grateful. Grateful for the nature and people and creative sparks that fuel resilience. ❤️‍🔥 Also to my parents who are the most supportive, and gifted me a hatchet to carve spoons with. 🪓

Wishing you find home in your heart and snow on your boots 💙 This is a drawing from one of those times that no longer exists, done from a place I have left, drawn originally about a wholly different version of home. I miss both dearly. The magic of seeing the meaning of art morph and stretch with distance and growth and time is wild. The one thing that remains true through all the change: Nostalgia is a heck of a drug. *If u are looking for a mug that is angsty enough to match your favorite bevvie, u know what to do.
