So honored to be a part of this campaign! Puzzles were just released this morning and I can't wait to get mine! As a puzzle enthusiast, it was so fun to design something both beautiful and intricate, with lots of interesting textures to put together. @theboneowl has been so wonderful to work with and their Kickstarter for high quality fine art puzzles is already a third of the way there! I just put the link in my profile, puzzles are only 30 bucks! This has been a long time coming and I am so looking forward to seeing pics of everyone gathering together to put this piece together. 💛💛💛bit.ly/boneowl

Glory glory all around for opening hands to see. Crossing the senses so the fingertips know a scent that lingers, something it can trace back in the wind, in the turn of wonder.

Tomorrow! My puzzle with @theboneowl drops in kickstarter! As a puzzle lover it was so fun for me to be able to design something I thought would be interesting to put together. This is a work in progress, to see the final image and read more about the KS head over to @theboneowl - it drops tomorrow at 10am EST. 💛🌿

It's official. Pizzacat is a mamma to three little toppings and @boonerodriguez is a GRANDPIZZA! How can so much sweetness fit in one basket?

Much like seahorses prefer to swim in pairs, I find I typically excel when i'm walking hand in hand with my body and being kind to the inner structures that help keep these outer ones alive. • . This piece is available at @beinartgallery for their small works show, please email [email protected] if you're interested in adding these little fish to your collection. I'm so thrilled to be a part of this show alongside so many stellar artists. ♥️ (also! Apologies for being late sharing this. I've been away)

Today is my birthday and I feel so loved. There aren't enough words to cover the depth of gratitude, warmth and thankfulness I have for all my loved ones over this past year. It's been a doozy, but your strength, bravery and tenderness have taught me how to be kind to myself and pursue my depths. Cheers to all of you and another rotation around the sun. All my love. 💛

Big big thank you to everyone who ordered a print! I'm getting them from the printer at the end of the week and they'll go in the mail next week! Can't wait to get all these to you, and keep an eye out for all the extra love stuffed in your shipping tubes!

Caught in the wild, the rare interdigital brace. I know dudes, I hold my pencil weird. There's nothing mystical about it, it's just what felt right when I was a kid and no matter how hard my parents tried, I refused to change it. As in all things, I have certainly found a few benefits in drawing, like it's easier for me to draw long lines. But there are also inhibitions; my hands cramp up in weird places and need regular massaging. This photo was taken by @boonerodriguez last week when we went for a hike in to Twin Lakes on Orcas Island. It was such a quiet and ancient place, with still water and sing song birds. It's good for my spirit and my guts to step back for some time every few weeks or so. I'm prone to brain spirals and the silence of trees growing always straightens me out. I found a little fern and was mapping out a simple field study of it; didn't get very far, but that wasn't the point. The point was to observe, both the intricacies around me, and the delicacies within. I hope you all found a little space to breathe this past weekend, to breathe, listen, and see.

Sometimes a small patch of light can stop you in your tracks and remind you how beautiful everything. Is. Anyone know what kind of flower big this is? I'd appreciate the help!

Mm thank you to everyone for being so patient about this batch of prints! I took a little much needed family vacation last week and will be shipping out your orders this afternoon. As ever, it fills me with gratitude to mail these to you, they are a labor of love and also my actual means of bread and butter. I'm so thankful for your continued support so I can keep making thoughtful work to share with this beautiful community. So much 💛. • . . . This is a detail from my wolf print 'the undoing', and one of my favorite birds! Anyone know what he is? ☺️

Sometimes I spend a boatload of hours on something and it doesn't work out- just can't get the mood right or the technique is off. It's easy to feel deflated when this happens, but I try to instead take these mishaps in as the fortified documentation of my learning process; time spent deepening my understanding of approach, planning, and materials usage. It might not pay off in the moment, but it helps me craft technical longevity and nuance. Whether a piece is a success or an utter flop, I always learn more than I am able to create and this is part of what continues the drive to make the next piece. • . . . So a happy Sunday, and happy making to you, please remember your mistakes are beautiful and help you grow. 💛 I'd love to know what are some things you've learned/ways you've grown through making! Please share?

A closeup of the slow progress on my "Fronds and Furls" piece for the puzzle I designed for @theboneowl . They've been such a delight to work with and gave me complete freedom on this project, trusting my vision and providing creative encouragement, which has fostered something I feel is really really special. If you want to see the final, head in over to their website boneowl.com 🐍🌿💛

I had so much fun making this piece! This is a wip of a puzzle I was working on for @theboneowl puzzles! They are going to be releasing them next month!
