Welcome! I’m a pencil artist with a deep love of nature and a large rock collection. My art reflects that and my love of fantasy and horror.

I also enjoy sharing my nature photos, hiking adventures, books I love, movies, etc.

I sell my #art online!

I have so much still to unpack but the studio is in basic working order. BASIC. It's enough that I will reopen my store on Monday as planned. Thankful that past me didn't plan to do any events till 2026. I think it's going to take me more than a month to get things how I want.

Your Cherokee words for today.
The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

Last night in Buffalo. ❤️ Our seats were not bad for freebies. Section 119, Row 20. We won’t talk about the game itself. 😅

The best part, this was my brother’s first #hockey game and he loved it.

Hockey time in Buffalo! 🦬🔥

The way I immediately stopped unpacking when the sun came out to take art photos for the auction next week. 😅

I finally watched Weapons and what a wild movie. I love when you think a story is one thing and then it takes a left turn.

Thinking back to a drawing class I took in college where we had to draw a self-portrait every week. At the time it was torture but by the end of the semester it was proof that practice and repetition are the best way to become a skilled artist. You just have to keep going. #art #drawing

The Changeling Artist Collective auctions are returning next week and I’ll be offering up something special. This is one of four! I’ll be sharing the full set on my Patreon tomorrow.

Artists who use affinity: you might have seen the announcement a moment ago. If you're skeptical about it being "free" and what the catch is, here are my thoughts (it's long but might give some insight):

My only question with the new Affinity/Canva app is are they incorporating AI? Especially some form of Gen AI.

Tomorrow I’m going to focus on getting my studio functional. I need some drawing time so badly.

Mamdani shows how hungry voters are for candidates who act like they actually care for the places they'd represent. Will he deliver? Not on everything. But he has an exuberance for the city that you wish Congress had for the country.

I spent a big part of today on the phone dealing with change of address things. I’ve managed to get my clothes put away and that’s about it 🙃

November is Native American Heritage Month! Please consider supporting a Native artist, author, game designer, singer/songwriter, film maker, etc this month. 👇🏽

I’m currently reading Man Made Monsters by Andrea L Rogers, a Cherokee Nation author.

The wind and rain last night were something else and while we were barely moved in, I bought one bag of candy and put out two decorations. And that bag is GONE. That’s Halloween dedication. 🎃 Best costume was a young girl dressed as M3GAN.
