I’m not BIG on generational stereotypes, but I did order avocado toast today like a proper millennial.
What’s more JOLLY than an Elf-themed pint glass? (Answer: an Elf-themed pint glass with something other than a dish towel in it, probably.)
I made an ABSTRACT face at Ikea yesterday!
And finally, this swing is for LITTLE babies, but of course the close-up picture was my favorite.

Project Name: Arts and Crafts Club magnet
Project Link: to come
Brief Description: I gessoed and painted the wood plank and cut/broke it down into smaller pieces. I added a sticker to the top of this larger piece and magnets to the back. I plan to do the same with the rest of the plank pieces, but I’ve horribly mismanaged my time on this project, so this is the only one ready for the deadline

Project Name: Octopus drawing ATC
Project Link: See above
Brief Description: I borrowed colored pencils to draw this at my friend’s “Doodle or Don’t” event at a local cafe. People just came to hang out and chat (or not) and use some communal art supplies, and it was a great vibe! Since I didn’t have my stamp supplies or anything, I just drew this octopus while looking at a photo of a Pacific octopus I found online. Also, it’s mostly blue.

Brief Description: These are some altered playing cards I’m making for a role-playing game I’m doing with a friend. We’ll keep altering more cards as the game goes on. The main reason I wanted to do this game was as an excuse to make casual, spontaneous art with the playing cards, so we were definitely winging it!

Brief Description: this is my arts and crafts club wood piece and I used it to make a dog walking and dog medication tracker.

Brief Description: I cut a rubber stamp with my laser and used the wooden plank as the stamp mount. I conducted multiple tests to determine the best settings for cutting the stamp. Maybe I overprepped a bit, but I’d rather do it with the right settings than wing it and be disappointed.
