Hello my sweet friends — I just wrote a new check in and it is up for you now! Swing by for quiet moment if you’d like to listen in.
but first,
NEW ART:
I made this piece in response to Resistance makes space for creation, one of my favorites from a few years ago. I’ve been wanting to tell more of the story, to imagine not only a way to create a different world but to live in this one.
Rest is not something that just appears for me when I stop doing other things. It’s something I’m learning how to do.
And for me, the first steps to unfurl the knot of resistance, to create some space, are acts of acceptance: noticing, greeting, and allowing in whatever is happening in the moment, in my pulsing body, in my wild mind.
So this piece is about that. I hope it offers something helpful to you.
I made this print for my May Patreon members. If you’d like one, join a ‘New Art’ tier before the end of the month. JOIN HERE
UPDATE:
I’m so excited about the HELLO BODY stickers I made for May Patrons based off of this piece. Sadly - there was some mix up with our sticker maker and we received someone else’s order, and we’re trying to get it sorted. So:
If you’d like a sticker, there’s still time! Join a tier with a sticker reward HERE before the end of the month (that’s tomorrow! how is it basically summer already?!)
If you’re on a sticker tier, we’ll be shipping late this month! I’m so sorry. I’ll send you a message in Patreon with a special shop code to hopefully make it up to you. (new sticker members will get the shop code too 🥰)
DOG TIME 🐾
Here’s a little story I shared on IG about my afternoon with Miko, in case you missed it:
Thanks for reading and being my art friend! I really appreciate you and hope you have a peaceful day today.
Miko’s lil arm resting on you 🥺🥺🥺
This is so sweet! :D I love both your commentary in the photos (and to Miko!) and taking space to be with her in her time outside, to embrace what she enjoys too <3
