Hellooo lovely people! Have you been putting off buying holiday cards?

If so, may I suggest one of these fine designs? Printed in my studio, and packed by my very own hands (get a $1 per card discount for buying in packs of 5!).

Bike Anchorage’s response to Sunday’s ADN’s editorial about the increase of pedestrian deaths in Anchorage. The ADN editorial did quite a bit of victim blaming and offered fixes that made it more difficult to be a walker or a cyclist here.

Opinion: Stop blaming pedestrians and start fixing streets
Anchorage’s pedestrian death toll isn’t about reflective vests or fences — it’s about dangerous driving, weak enforcement and leaders who prioritize convenience over human life.

#sciart friends (and art friends more broadly)- what's the process like for getting prints made of paintings? A local store is interested in some of my art but I've never actually had prints made, so I'm a little intimidated.

Little Stormzy had his first trip out into the "real world".

Testing him out to see if he'll be OK for adoptions.

Look at him go! I think the early answer is a yes!
