Welcome, earthlings - this is a place of documentation of a girl plummeting into a parallel universe. Come along with me ~
let’s catch up…
Hi Friends, it’s been a while - Let’s catch up on a few things!
Here’s a little update on what I’ve been up to the past few months.
Enjoy ~
Hey friends! It’s definitely been a while… so let me catch you up on a few things!
The beginning of this year started off with a wonderful surprise of my boyfriend asking me to be his forever person (I said yes, of course!). Moving into February, the girls and I had a ton of fun decorating and making valentines and other crafts. Alice is following in her sissy’s footsteps and is becoming quite the artist as well and loves to “paint”!
I went a little crazy with the garden planning - yes, also a little earlier than I should have as well, but here we are! - sunshine is my soul medicine and I am so ambitious about my backyard garden space. I have so many plans to turn it into a dream oasis space to draw, read, and for the girls to play. February and March I started to get serious about planting seeds and got a few indoor greenhouses for them to protect from the vicious Odin Monster… (our cat).
During March, I got back into playing Animal Crossing New Horizons. I’ve been putting in more hours than I’d like to admit but this game brings me so much joy and is so nostalgic for me. Working on making a super fun and cozy island space! Tom Nook still be stealin’ all my bells though….
Lots of drawing and creating as the weather starts to warm up and the sun begins to shine- I as well am thawing out from the winter… and the layers of seasonal depression are finally peeling away.
I am so excited to see what the beautiful month of April brings; it’s my favorite month (and my birthday month!) Do you have anything planned for April??
If you’ve made it this far, I appreciate you immensely. Thanks for catching up with me and I’ll see you soon!

October Re-Cap
A little re-cap of my favorite spooky month :)
October has been one of the busiest months of the year so far for us; I participated in a daily drawing challenge that ate up a lot of my time. However, I’m the queen of prioritizing, so I still managed to get so much done and also create things just for myself. There was SO MUCH art made this month and that has me bursting with happiness; from digital drawings, to doodles in my sketchbook, to 31 daily pieces - the creativity was a non-stop flow for this month, and I truly hope I don’t lose my groove…
As we get closer and closer to the winter months (it snowed last night!!), I’m realizing how crucial getting outside is to my mental health. Even just for a walk around the yard, I need to do it; ground myself and remind myself to take giant gulps of the fresh autumn air. I am someone who struggles daily with a lack of hope and happiness, I don’t mean to, but my brain chemistry has other plans… Capturing all these moments to reflect each month help me realize how truly lucky I am to be alive and loved - each of these little daily snip-its are the reason I exist and the way that I find true purpose in my life.
I am ending this incredibly hectic, chaotic, and stressful month with a big ‘ol grin on my face and feeling nothing but warmth and gratitude. Life is really hard and it’s really messy… but it’s also amazingly beautiful too, it just depends which lens you’re looking through.
Happy Halloween, my lovely little fairy friends! <3
Peachtober ‘24
Here's a little portfolio I put together for you of all my Peachtober '24 entries- Enjoy!
That’s a wrap, my friends! This is the first year that I chose to participate in an Inktober challenge and I’m so happy I went through with this. I am beyond proud of myself for making a piece every day and also making a video to go along with it. This was such a carefree and fun challenge to try - it helped me loosen up and explore so many styles and mediums that I don’t normally gravitate to.
Below is my portfolio of all the artwork I made for Peachtober 2024! Enjoy ~
saying goodbye to Summer..
