This drawing is from a couple years back, but just yesterday I discovered a little nest hidden deep within the thorny branches of our raspberry patch. Life imitating art imitating life.


Happy Mother’s Day to all the hardworking moms out there!

Brad Holland 1943-2025
I had the opportunity to see Brad Holland's NYC studio on a class visit with Mirko Ilić. We sat on the floor in the dark while he told stories, and I remember thinking that the space felt just like his paintings: a wealth of surreal images swallowed up by deep shadows.

We got to visit Brad Holland at his SoHo studio yesterday.

Took part in a small risograph workshop at Back of Beyond Press in Northeast Minneapolis this past weekend — big thanks to Sarah for patiently walking us through the process and producing some beautiful prints!
My test file was a little two-color group portrait I’ve been working on as a gift for my weekly D&D crew 💚❤️ More on that soon!

A peek behind the curtain of the design process for one of the two-color risograph prints from my Altjugend series — it took ages to figure out how to frame the scene so that all the overlapping elements and halftone patterns would read clearly 😵💫

Here’s a peek at the earliest round of test prints for Altjugend 🤍💚🖤
This series of two-color risograph prints began with me drawing in bed while recovering from Covid, playing with overlapping halftone patterns because it made my brain feel good. I often describe my creative process as “make a mess, then slowly clean it up” — and while I’m pleased with how far I pushed these prints in the end, I kind of miss these crunchier textures 🤔

Thumbnail sketches for “The Mustard Girl” from The Gullet • I ended up creating two sets of sketches because the first batch didn’t cut the mustard 😅
