Treating myself to some colors todayyy

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Thank you!

Hand lettering being engraved onto a blue tumbler using a handheld engraving tool. The tumbler design is clean, precise, and permanent, highlighting the detail and artistry of custom engraving.

Every tumbler I engrave is done completely by hand, no lasers, no vinyl, no shortcuts. 

If you’re looking for a holiday gift that’s thoughtful, personal, and one-of-a-kind, a custom engraved tumbler might be the perfect choice.

Overhead mock-up of an iPad displaying white hand lettered text that reads “try not to speak to yourself in a voice too harsh for anyone else.” The lettering is surrounded by small green leaves on a dark background.

From my digital sketchbook: this lettering is a reminder to soften myself to soften my inner voice and offer the same kindness I would try to offer others.

Do you struggle with this too? Save this one for the days you need a gentler reminder.

Hahahaha amazing

“Lettering a window for a client” Installation day process

“Getting started.” After the template is up, I step inside and paint on the interior, where the work will be protected from the elements and last as long as the client wants.

“Trust the process” From the inside, the paint might look “off” from the template or streaky. That’s normal!

“Finishing touches.” when the template comes down, I add finishing touches and we can admire the finished artwork.

Ever wondered what it’s like to get custom window art installed for your shop?

Let’s make your storefront stand out this holiday season! I'm booking for October and November, so reach out or submit an inquiry on my website: https://f.mtr.cool/rpkeyqolaq

This. Today is a great day to watch a YouTube filmmaker, or cruise Etsy, read a webcomic, or subscribe to a Patreon. Spending $5 on a sticker or hitting subscribe can make the world of difference to an indie artist.

As always, today is a good day to support artists, writers, creators. If you have the means, maybe consider signing up for a Patreon. Buy a book, a game, a painting. Commission a new piece. Tell a creator what they mean to you. Signal boost their work.
