Stoller Mafia: Engaged!

Goodies: paid luxury vacations, gigayachts, private jets.

Not goodies: childcare (+food, healthcare, housing.)

Why hire craftspeople when you can send an intern to Hobby Lobby?

If aspic becomes a thing, we know we're screwed! There was a period in another country's (shall not be named) history where gelatin was the only way to get protein. And with sugar being rare and $$$, they resorted to savory options.

Too much huffing exhaust, apparently.

Life has felt real heavy lately, so posting hasn't felt like a priority. But I hope you enjoy the finished product: "Kiku Rising," a visual narrative of the Northgate area in Seattle.

Savoring the one hour of sunshine I get on this mural. 🥶 Almost finished!

If we start saying "The Gulf of Mexico now identifies as The Gulf of America," do you think they'll change it back?

What do we think?

2025: I'm setting aside time to do stuff just for fun. Like this silly Viking banana helmet for The Bananas Pod.
I focus on murals, but I make, sew, build, prototype, and refurbish all kinds of things! (I know the horns were not actually part of Viking helmets. But neither were bananas or glitter!)

New style alert! I brought some texture and depth to these cherry blossoms at Sip and Ship in Ballard. Would you be more likely to stop and look, or even go inside if you saw these?

Did you know? It's mandatory for every muralist to jump in front of their murals when they finish! 🤣

I was on a Zoom call today and one of the participants was lying down, snuggled up, and chiming in with lovely comments from her comfy spot. I couldn't help but sketch her! #zoomgoals

I painted a cute little mural last week! Tiny and Mighty OT is a woman-owned feeding therapy practice in Edmonds, WA, and the muted brand palette was a great jumping off point for all the fun illustrations! 🌸🍼🥄🧸

Talking about student loan forgiveness and had to tell a family member that "'I suffered, so others should similarly suffer,' isn't the way to move society forward." Bringing uplifting and advocacy energy into 2025.

I'll share my art. I'll follow funny, political, neurodiverse, cute animal, nice stories, creativity. Hi!
