Every time I show people videos of Heather eating, they become cricket sympathizers. Honestly I can't blame them... ^^"

Heather may be adorable and laid-back, but she basically caught these poor crickets as I dropped them in like a dog begging for table scraps lol

Follow The Leader (Ant Spiral)

block printed denim, cotton batting, thread, and gifted fabric backing

thinking about natural phenomena, repetition from a single block carving, adaptive and maladaptive behaviors, and dreams from years back where my blankets turned into swarms of insects
