The work is mysterious and important. 🐐
Been sitting on this Severance-inspired drawing for a while. Thinking about labor, dystopia, and the things we give our bodies to.

🚗💨 Hittin' it at breakneck speeds, a pink mist.
Had a lot of life happen out in the real world lately—but I’m feeling energized and ready to move with it. Slowly getting my studio and practice back in shape.
If you feel the wind rush by, that’s me drawing at the speed of sound.

🛻 💥How do we feel about old sketchbook pages?
I've often found myself envious of really well put-together sketchbooks, but my gut says they're not meant to be so precious.

Ghoulish.👹
I have been wrestling with some creative block. Feels like the only way through it is to make more. Scratch the itch. Lay down some ink and keep it movin'.

📖 On March 8th, I spent some time documenting @katiemerz — drawing, connecting, and selling their work by the yard at "Night in the @bklynlibrary."
A vibrant, pay-what-you-can exchange of creativity and care. A powerful reminder of the interconnected potential of people and community.
