Just a “casual fan” waiting for the show to come out.

This is a video of the pinball machine I made based on Lockwood and Co. The Screaming Staircase by Jonathan Stroud.

Give that wolf a banana!

I have posted this video in my other social media, but I think Tumblr will appreciate it more (I love this hell site 😂)

Subwoolfer (Norway) are my favorites on Eurovision this year, because we can all use some silliness in our lives.

I wish I could make my robot do all the amazing dance moves this song has, but alas, I have a day job 😅

I’ve still been neglecting this account, even though I keep saying I won’t anymore. This counts as art too, right? #frogmusic #musicalfrogs #frogs #robotic https://www.instagram.com/p/CMfLHE8HPLD/?igshid=5sdlhu9d1i3h

My snake is done for now. I’ll play around with the coding and add sensors tomorrow. There might be a bunch of snake content coming up so brace yourselves 😆 #mojaverattlesnake #watercolor #artandtech https://www.instagram.com/p/CKfoH7qn5lv/?igshid=e3emsyxzx3z2

Sketches for one project that have now inspired a second. I’ve always thought snakes were cool, but I’m finding that they can be very cute too... #snakes #sketches #gartersnake https://www.instagram.com/p/CKWtBzGnS3G/?igshid=1xxja2wdc0zzp

Trying to process the full panic attack I am having after going to the dentist. He was only wearing a face shield that was too small for his face and I could see droplets from his mouth falling towards my face. There was no temperature screening and when I brought it up he said, “well I trust you’ll let me know if you are sick.” And then ranted about the “crud” pandemic keeping people from going to the dentist. Needless to say I’m never going back again. I kept telling myself to say more. To ask him to wear a mask. To just walk out. Why am I so darn timid and easily intimidated? 😭 I’ve already been having nightmares about this kind of stuff. Ugh. #covidnightmare #dentist #droplets https://www.instagram.com/p/CJrSBHEHxT-/?igshid=kb29dl2najtl

Happy holidays everyone! May you have all the PPE, toilet paper, and disinfectant you need. Just a few more days until the Christmas-songs-24/7 torture ends. Oh and a few more until we can see if 2021 is indeed better than what we have now. These are some of the holiday cards I made this year. #christmas #christmas2020 #snowmen #socialdistancing #ppe #holidays #xmas https://www.instagram.com/p/CJJ_aL_nGUS/?igshid=1crxdoojwaon3

Today @doctorsparksshow and I had a virtual school event. It was fun working on the Typewriter Stories again. This time I tried getting fancy with my background painting since the story the students came up with talked about a mysterious space cloud. Getting fancy with watercolors when the stories are under 30 minutes and you need the paint to dry in that time is a bit tricky... #storytelling #childrensstories #hauntedspaceship https://www.instagram.com/p/CHo-lZrnSSv/?igshid=89ij0lrenbg5

Couple of Halloween cards I made for friends. It’s been such a crazy time lately. I feel like time has been going both super fast and super slow lately. I hope you are all staying safe and sane out there. #halloween #blackcat #pumpkin #fox #witch #cauldron #watercolor https://www.instagram.com/p/CG5ShConxJI/?igshid=1wxs43gotxyxo

It’s been 4 weeks of my sketch a day experiment and I’ve decided I am taking a break from it. A combination of really bad social media anxiety and a bigger workload at my day job tell me it won’t be good for my mental health to push myself to do this. I might come back to this once my day job situation goes back to normal, but it’ll depend on how I feel anxiety-wise. I’ll keep posting every now and then, it’s just the daily thing that got a bit crazy. #dailystudy #dailysketch #mentalhealth #socialmediaanxiety https://www.instagram.com/p/CGOd1tYnbjQ/?igshid=1o2aducewcd91

Day 28. I love colder weather clothes. From beanie hats, to jackets, scarves, etc. #dailystudy #dailysketch #beanieseason #beagle #practice https://www.instagram.com/p/CGObn6QH9Yf/?igshid=1uzmlq61hcuvu

Day 27. Dino Kid. I was having trouble concentrating and picking something to draw so I visited redditgetsdrawn and found a pic of a kid in dinosaur pajamas and this is what came out. #dailystudy #dailysketch #dinosaur #redditgetsdrawn #practice #kidridingdinosaur https://www.instagram.com/p/CGMI9dxHiMD/?igshid=1awdpocz01upp

Day 24. A card for my mom featuring my cats. I forgot to turn on the recording during the sketching, and only noticed once I switched to inking, but oh well. You still get to see me struggle with the color for Kringle and Klaus. I never seem to be satisfied with the color I end up with. #dailystudy #dailysketch #birthdaycard #timelapseart #cats #wildsunflowers #practice https://www.instagram.com/p/CGERTxcnlB2/?igshid=25ji5liz6hfp
