Printed a fresh batch of coyotes.
A black and white letterpress printed illustration of a stylized coyote with its nose tilted toward a black starry sky and one paw lifted. There is the impression of a hill behind the coyote, and around its hind legs and tail there are oversized stalks of grain. Four of the same print are layered on one another informally.

Definitely aware they were being watched. They had A CHILD with them, the fucks. This is the truck they rolled up in.
A red double cab truck with a flatbed.

I couldn't not see it.
A photo collage, the top image is a still from the new Frankenstein of the creature returning a glove to Elizabeth. They're kneeling across from each other and she's looking sweetly at him while he looks down shyly. The bottom photo is a still from Rocky Horror Picture show. Janet is tenderly bandaging Rocky's hand while they look into each other's eyes.

More of what they're sharing in public.
CALLING ALL PATRIOTS! We will be doing a counter march to the “No Kings” “Protest” in Portland this Saturday. We will meet at Lownsdale Square in between 11am and 12pm. Then we will march as a group toward the “No Kings” protest. We need to stay as a group as much as possible. These people are violent and want to silence your voice! These “No Kings” “Protesters are meeting at Pioneer Square, we will march towards them in a group.

Lecare pharmacy in NE Portland has Novavax if you’ve been waiting for it. Cute cat for visibility.

I really wanted to finish a #birdwhisperer drawing this month but I only got as far as the sketch.
A very rough sketch on textured paper in dark blue ink of a green woodpecker surrounded by leaves

Trying more paint in the sketchbook. Retreating to the more graphic style I’m comfortable with so I can focus on getting a handle on the materials and using some color. I still did too much. At the same time, not enough.
A painted sketch of a stylized red-wing blackbird, painted using flat blocks of color.

Must emphasize that I’m not a painter and I haven’t played with materials in years, but I want to loosen up & also figure out how to use color better. I stick to very graphic b&w forms mostly and am trying to break free! Posting for daily-ish accountability to self, lol, lmao.
Painting in a small sketchbook of a goldenrod crab spider in shades of white, off-white, and pink. It’s centered on the page surrounded by disconnected echinacea flower petals and the “cone” of the flower painted too large and sloppily.

I was looking up as I passed these trees on an evening walk yesterday because I often see bats on this stretch at dusk. I think these are awesome in the literal sense. I'm pretty sure this is a bald-faced hornet's nest. They have a bad reputation but will leave you alone if you're not a threat.
An incredible brown wasps nest hanging from a green leafy tree branch. It's a little larger than a basketball and layered with very textured fiber. There are four holes in the nest where the wasps come in and out. A wasp is peaking out of the largest, topmost hole.

Posting a slightly adjusted version of my new logo to see how it looks on different platforms. If anything seems unbalanced I'm still fussing with it.
A black and white graphic logo featuring a rabbit in the center with legs outstretched as if running or hopping and it's head swiveled to look behind itself and up. The rabbit is wreathed in decorative leaves and flower buds in a semi-circle above and to it's sides. Underneath the decoration is the type "The Rabbit Wood"

I have a tentative logo and banner thing for my new business name! I've not made any formal announcements, and I'm rolling through this transition slowly. My website is still Tiger Food Press, until further notice, if you need to find me.

I should take more progress photos and start showing what I’m working on, I’m just way out of the habit. So here’s some stuff: screen printed napkins and table runners!
A tan piece of linen fabric with some black stylized ravens printed on it lies on a table. The hems are pinned for sewing. There is a pin cushion and an iron on the table as well. In the background there is another table with a sewing machine, some stacked fabrics, and a cat. A silk screen frame from above with a bee and leaves design burned in, with light peach colored ink flooding the screen. A closeup of a red napkin with a bee and leaves design printed in peach colored ink.

A sneake is started.
A black and white pen and ink drawing in its early stages of a ringneck snake on translucent layout paper. You can see the snake’s head and the top part of its S-shaped body. The snake’s tongue is visible, it is forked at the tip and there’s a small black flame emerging from the fork. The layout paper is laying on top of a pencil sketch and you can see the details of the scales that are being traced in ink from the sketch beneath it.

This feels wildly out of touch and ignorant of what’s actually going down on the ground. newrepublic.com/article/1963...
Those with the clearest view are the ones bearing the brunt of such attacks. Whether it’s the sheriffs, police, or Border Patrol, “it was brutal violence,” said Ron Gochez, a community organizer, who was part of the protests. “What they didn’t think was going to happen was that the people would resist.” Over eight hours on Saturday, he said, after a battle with Border Patrol—“and it was a battle, because there were people throwing back tear gas, people throwing anything that they could to defend themselves and to defend the workers that were being surrounded”—the Border Patrol retreated. “And the hundreds of workers that were in the factories around them were able to escape,” Gochez recounted. “They were able to go to their cars and go home. That was only thanks to the resistance that allowed them to go home that night.” If any community was going to fight back without apology, it was this one.

He’s hacking a Krispy Kreme website.
A grey and white cat sits on a stool in the middle of a fairly tidy art studio looking at the camera. There is an open laptop in front of him on a table with a pair of glasses and some markers on the table and in a ceramic tumbler. We are looking at the laptop from the back so we can’t see what’s on the screen.

I printed some napkins with white ink and didn’t like how stiff the ink felt - not nice for napkins. So I sewed them into tote bags. I even made some custom straps to match!
Some cotton tote bags hanging from hooks on a grid wall. There are red bags on the left, black bags on the right. They both have a design of a bee and flowers printed on them in white. The straps are red/white and black/white stripes.

Sorbet or ink?
A photo from above of an open plastic sorbet pint container which is filled with peachy colored screen print ink. The container of ink sits on a piece of red fabric that has white printing on it and smudges of the peach colored ink sampled on it.

Learning new software because I FINALLY DITCHED ADOBE! A little late-in-the-day earth day gathering of forest critters is the result for today.
A three color graphic of animals in a graphic, folk-art style. There is a squirrel hanging from a tree branch coming from the left top of the image holding a strawberry in its front paws, a blackbird swoops downward from the right top, a fox stands on its hind legs in the lower left corner with its head turned up toward the squirrel, a mouse with a long tail runs from the bottom center toward the right, and a rabbit stands on its hind legs on the bottom right looking backwards and up toward the blackbird. All the animals are flat black with white patches. The background is a pattern of strawberry leaves, ferns, and alder branches in flat light green and bright red.

This has been driving me crazy. It’s like a bad understanding of what happened circa 2014-2020 has metastasized into this.
Screen shot of a social media comment section where one user says “And the black folks understood the assignment and stayed home. Protests never turn violent until the cops show up” and a reply says “THIS. There is nothing for the cops to go by if they can’t use their race card.”

Duff is loving Flow.
A grey cat sits on a plaid blanket. His posture is up and alert, his back is to us, and he is intently watching a TV in front of him which shows a scene from the movie Flow where a cat is small on the screen immersed in a sea of blue water.
