Extremely open to recommendations for goth, crunchy, slow-paced ambient instrumental music to paint to...I need something entirely without lyrics so I can focus on some kind of deep problem solving 👻

Tarot comrades: if there's no named artist on the deck, it's AI. If there's no named artist and it's NOT AI? Then they'd better name the artist. And as a bonus, I'd like to see what their work looked like before 2022 🙂

gof I haven’t felt this way since I got really into starting my first tarot deck, I can tell it’s serious because if someone makes the mistake of asking me a question about this project I can feel myself talking really fast and enunciating really hard because I’m too excited

I feel like the more projects I have under my belt, the more freewriting I end up doing for the ones that come after, because I have to ask “what makes this different than the other things?”

My goal for this year is to just be more Local. Health issues make long travel for conventions a lot harder, but I want to show up locally when I can. Going to try to tap into local markets. Yeah, my work is a little "spooky" for local art fairs but so what. Odd people need art too.
