Stickers!
If you want one and are local, they’ll be available at the Fortuna Vintage Market. If you’re not local, I’m willing to mail them.
Started a new one.
I had started to paint a face, but then realized I got the angle wrong and had to start over.
All done.
Stickers soon.
Used that photo of the newly discovered sea creature as reference. It’s so ugly it’s cute. Going to color it soon. Maybe make it a sticker.

I’ve tamed my logo, for now.
I’ve done this on all social media platforms.
It’s not permanent, I hope.
About painting con:
Trans colors from the wound showing being trans is inside, not just outward identifiers.
Blood flowing over the flag to again symbolizes the violence trans people face. The figure becoming mist to show the erasure of trans people and how trans masc people often feel unseen.
About the painting:
The face is plain, no person in particular, and no specific skin tone, so that all trans masc people can see themselves in it. Blood from scars showing the violence and loss of bodily autonomy trans people face.
“I Want to Live”
Acrylic on canvas board.
It’s not quite done yet.
Forgot to take earlier progress pictures.

Happy to have it, but the lighting is bad for filming.
Once this box is sealed and lined, it will be up for sale.

My area is under tsunami advisory for a while. I’m home and everything is all good.

Tsunami warning in my area. Safe. Partner and I further inland with the fur baby and supplies
West coasters: stay safe. If you’ve been told to evacuate, take what you need (meds, pets, papers) and get out. Stuff can be replaced. You can’t.
Done painting it, I think.
