I think we all need some cleansing posts today, here's some photos from a lovely trip to the Portland Japanese Gardens.
I did a little drawing of the koi pond, because obviously.

THE MERCHANT

Actors and artists pack Stanford hearing to demand new AI transparency law SAG-AFTRA and other groups say the measure offers basic transparency for performers whose work is being scraped without consent.

Still so excited for everyone who showed up to this yesterday! It was stunning to see a sea of creatives overwhelm that tiny hearing. We had an overflow room of artists and the line for 30 second public commentary literally had to be cut off!

You made a huge difference
yesterday.

Thank you!

Making kidlit is tough. But there are children that need to hear your stories from your unique perspective. Keep going!

Thank youuu! 🦊

Hey, is it still #folktaleweek 2025? No. Sigh. I'm still going to work through the remaining prompts because I'm learning a ton and enjoying the process very much.

This image is for CHARM. (Included the 2nd to show how it repeats on the horizontal.)

YouTube video by Drew Gooden Greed is Destroying the World

Hot dang this video essay hits hard, is well researched, and aligns so well with what I think ails this world.

I feel that now, more than ever, solidarity of the 99% will truly be one of the few things that can fix this absolute mess of a techno feudal-ish world.

Mega worth the watch:

An illustration of a child with a bunch of birds facing forward. Birds include a Major Mitchell Cockatoo, a blue footed Booby and a Barn Owl. The boy still has his net for some reason, and there are still no insects to be found.

When my partner saw my previous #kidlitartpostcard he challenged me to make a forward-facing version. So here it is!

I love illustrating busy scenes, vibrant colours and silly animals ❤️
