Hi! I’ve lowered prices slightly for most things in my store! Y’all’s support allows me to do this for a living, and I know we’re all dealing with money being tighter these days. I want to make sure art and gifts for your loved ones are accessible as we all navigate these weird times together ❤️

Being able to throw out my back with a sneeze in my early 30s is my cosmic punishment for making jokes about being “old” when I was in my mid 20s

Sorry I haven’t posted more! Scrolling the World Wide Web feels like opening a tome bound in human leather that screams with each page turn.

"to democratize art is not every person having a cute drawing made in seconds, to democratize art is every person having time and health to learn and make art if they chose to, and mainly to have the means to think and relate introspectively with art."
Pq democratizar a arte não é toda pessoa ter um desenho bonitinho feito em segundos, democratizar arte é toda pessoa ter tempo e saúde pra aprender e produzir arte se quiser mas principalmente ter condição pra pensar e se relacionar com arte com introspecção.

For those asking about where the $27 shirt options went: I’m looking for replacement fabric! Quality + accessibility are important to me, and I just wasn’t happy with the quality of the previous ones. Lots of blanks I ordered had loose threads, holes, and inconsistent dimensions.

Some more from the photoshoot… so absolutely in love with how everything turned out 😭 small businesses helping each other out leads to some awesome stuff (photographer info linked on my website if you’re local to Knoxville and looking for a great photographer)

Ok I gotta try to tackle my late order problem, definitely my weakest spot running a business. I mostly print on demand due to space constraints, but now that I have a new studio and a conveyor dryer I might try having more back stock? When life or medical stuff happens I just get so darn behind!!

I got some professional product photos taken and I couldn’t be happier!!!! My website now looks like an actual functional business and not like a sketchy pop-up ran by two dogs in a trenchcoat

I’m just blabbing in the void but. Wow transforming an unfinished basement into a print studio is a full time job in itself, but it is close to done!! I can’t wait to be set up so I can catch up on my actual full time job (running the shop), and then maybe I can have some time to draw new things 😴
