I like having a few different studio projects running at any time, ideas cross pollinate between them and I can hop from one to another to keep the energy buzzing.
Here’s some of what’s going on right now.
Imaginary Friends & Curious Creatures
I’ve been collaborating with the folks who showed up in the doodles of my art journals this year, accompanied by some bizarre beasties who dwell in the furthest corners of my imagination.
This year’s project is a little concertina sketchbook which I’m adding to and sharing on IG daily and sporadically on Tiktok.
It’s a project about celebrating the things that don’t go to plan.
As I cut and glued and finagled the pages together I watched the ebb and flow of acceptance that the stuff I make will inevitably have a wonkiness to it.
Quirkfulness is my style, it’s a feature not a bug. Part of my process is the remember to be okay with this.
