I was so proud to donate two of my paintings to this wonderful cause!

It’s been 19 thrilling days, but the OFMD Craft Fair is officially CLOSED! 

What started off as a simple idea (“what if we did something crafty to raise money for trans kids?”) blossomed into something greater than any of our wildest expectations. 

For those who like numbers, here are some fun ones for you:

1: the number of auctions we planned to hold

2: the number of flash auctions we ended up holding in addition to that

156: the number of people who donated crafts

214: the number of listings at the start of the fair

503: the number of listings at the end

842: the number of people who placed bids or made donations

$5,000: our original fundraising goal

$95,021: the amount we ultimately through auctions alone, all to benefit the Campaign for Southern Equality’s Trans Youth Emergency Project

At least $105,000: the amount we’ve raised so far through our donation form

Those numbers are all phenomenal, mind-blowing, even. But this auction’s success is about more than just numbers. It’s about a group of people who saw an opportunity to help and grabbed it. It’s about people stepping in to help any way they could. It’s about people sharing the excitement, boosting each other up, spreading the word of the event so that more and more people could join in. 

It’s about people coming together as a collective, because while individually we may be capable of small change, together, we can do something truly incredible. 

Thank you to every single person who was a part of the craft fair, whether it was through crafting, bidding, or spreading the hype. None of this would have been possible without you.

So… now what? The craft fair team is in fulfillment mode, working to make sure everyone is paid up and receives their items. We very much appreciate your patience through this process; as a reminder, it’s still just six of us, and we promise we’re working as fast as we can!

Additional donations We know some fans are keeping the generosity going and offering commissions to raise even more money, to which we say, FAB! You can continue to make donations through this link: https://bit.ly/OFMDcraft We will get a final count of the amount we raised through additional donations next week, but the form will stay open for now.

More crafts, please! While there will NOT be another craft fair, we’re gathering information from our crafters so you know where to go to continue to shop their wares or seek them out for commissions. More to come! 

Questions? As always, reach out to us at ofmdcraftfair@gmail.com if you have any questions along the way.

Thanks again, crew. Our family, our fight!

I’m embarking on a new project - 100 mini paintings! The goal is to create 100 mini paintings in a year, but to be honest, the hyperfixation has started now so I might try for 100 mini paintings in 100 days! This is the first one - a tiny rosy maple moth.

The little bitch from Scadrial and Yolen's Cuntiest 🤣🤣🤣 I'm dead.

Nazh and Khrissalla on Roshar

Nazh: Yeah, remember when you told me, “there’s been no progress made on this planet for four thousand years, Nazirlof, you should go and get maps of this planet for me, Nazirlof!”? Well, I get there, and guess what happens?

The little bitch from Scadrial gets there and starts moving his little agents through the planet, now all of the sudden Yolen's Cuntiest is there thirsting over some local-

Latest in my new series of paintings in my signature swirly trees style inspired by the colours of different pride flags. This one is the bisexual pride flag - I think it's the prettiest one!

I have started new series of paintings in my signature 'swirly trees' style inspired by Pride flags. I wanted to do the rainbow pride flag, but I've done rainbow trees lots of times before (look at my logo!) so for something a bit different this time, I took inspiration from the original pride flag designed by Gilbert Baker in 1978, which includes pink and turquoise. I think these colours are beautiful together.

"Vibrant Wildflowers" - original intuitive abstract watercolour painting in vibrant pink and gold. It's hard to capture the way the gold shimmer in a scan!

I actually got really emotional when I saw this on Twitter. He hasn't forgotten us!

Thank you, pirate dad!

"Memories of Spring"

The thing about intuitive abstract painting, is that I don't always have a clear idea of what I'm going to create when I sit down to start. I generally have an idea of the 'vibe' I'm going for an the colours I'm going to use, but otherwise, I just kind of turn my brain off and go with the flow. I was really happy with how this one turned out, especially the 'softness' and flow it has.

Available in my Etsy store!

You say that like it's a bad thing...

salt & vinegar chips are snacks for fucking masochists. literally the entire flavour of the goddamn chip is “acetic acid, which will hurt your tongue, and then just salt on top of that to hurt it worse”. it’s brutal. this chip is designed to hurt you
