AND FINALLY! I was invited to participate in the #JordanCon Charity Art Jam this year, which was SO fun. The theme was “corvids,” so I chose to paint a raven skull and a “raven” ZZ plant. The piece is named “Just the Tip” because the very tip of the beak has a touch of gold 😉

Additionally, here is part 1 of my gallery from #JordanCon! The original of “The High Priestess” is still available as well as an embellished print of “Chthonic Sisterhood!”

I’m emerging from my social media cave to say that I had such an amazing time at #JordanCon this year, as both a staff member and an attending artist. Thank you to everyone who bought my art and I hope you truly love it!

My new piece, The River, is finally done! I had so much fun getting to work on this piece as the cover art for an EP my brother is releasing. Stay tuned! (no pun intended)

My newly finished piece, “Bitter Water.”

A bouquet of black hellebore, ergot on rye, pennyroyal, cotton root, and tansy, which have been used for thousands of years to help uterus-havers take back control for their bodies.

Thinking today about how ready I feel for spring and for all of the flowers that come with it! My uncle commissioned this cherry blossom piece last year and it’s still one of my favorites 🌸

It was such a wonderful delight to get to create this commission. She requested a piece representing #Hecate, #Persephone, and #Hades and I turned to botanicals! #DeadlyNightshade for Hecate, #PomegranateBlossoms for Persephone, and #Asphodel for Hades.

I got the opportunity to create this awesome mushroom piece for a dear friend, and I am so delighted with how it turned out! I feel so, unbelievably grateful to have been trusted to bring this vision to life!

Recently my daughter asked me to paint a sunset over the ocean. I've never done that before and now seemed like the time! I also got the chance to try out my new golden watercolor and *omg* I am blown away. It looks like molten gold on the paper and I'm obsessed!

I loved getting back to my roots (pun intended) with this pen and ink oyster mushroom!
Thank you to Kate for letting me use your foraging photos as inspo!
