Replying to @Teah Clark Long time, no see! Sorry for the radio silence, folks! I’ve been hard at work with all of the not-so-visually-interesting (or super spoiler-filled) parts of my latest artist book. That said, these are all integral steps of the book design process, so I want to give you guys a little sneak peek. The illustration process is now fully underway, so upcoming updates about this book will be much more interesting to look at, if nothing else! #artbook #bookart #book #linocut

Replying to @Danni! “How to Git Gud” Here are some of my thoughts on skill acquisition — and three projects I made at the three different phases of learning a new skill! Don’t worry, book fans. I’m doing a lot of beadposting these days, but I haven’t stopped making books either — more soon! First necklace pattern is by Melissa Grakowsky Shippee Second necklace is an adaptation of a pattern by Laura McCabe #beading #beadwork #art #amulet #craft

Still in a beading fervor; this time, I’m adding an embroidered luna moth to a thrifted blouse! If you want to make the necklaces shown in this video, they are (in order): 1. “Queen Isabella’s Sceptre” by Melissa Grakowsky 2. “Sea Nettles” by Kim Stathis 3. “Starry Night Necklace” by Linda Richmond All three moths are designed by Laura McCabe, but I believe she only teaches them in a class and doesn’t sell the patterns individually! #beading #beadembroidery #lunamoth #wizard

I’ve been designing a typeface for a mass-market artist book ~mystery project~ that I am beyond excited about! While this project is currently scheduled to be published in… sigh… 2025, I’m glad I can share the process with you far sooner! I’m thrilled to be working with the publisher Chronicle to finally produce my artist book work in an accessible and widespread way 🔮 #bookart #printmaking #typefacedesign #grimoire #occult

Is it fan art if you also wrote the source material? 🤔 Here’s how I made a paper doll of my favorite character from my new children’s book, “The Knight of Little Import,” which comes out today! It’s best for kids aged 5-9. In the book, this guy is sleep-deprived and demoralized — until he gets some monster-banishing help from the book’s protagonist! #paperdoll #puppet #paperpuppet #wizard #childrensbook #picturebook #craft
