now

life

taking 10-15 day breaks every month from a certain social media site and using it as an "artist residency" period of sorts.
supporting my mom with her home care as she slowly recovers from her stroke
excited for our crabapple tree to bloom!

(slowly) converting my website into semantic HTML for accessibility.
learning Eleventy in conjunction!
started logging in my daily studio activities in a notebook and tracking how i get things done.
writing and drawing new zines. i just finished the 17th issue of my paper newsletter, Secret Pocket, Prying the Inner Eye Open, a zine about my 20 years of Tarot practice, and Picking Bones #3, my comic perzine.
using monoprint drawing in my practice. getting better at writing backwards!
collaborating on zine and zine-adjacent projects with hellonavi! we are slowly building our zine catalogue for our distro at walanghiya.ca and tabling at local zine fairs.

reading so much fanfic and crying my eyes out. so good.
also reading books about play, studio practices and monotype printing.
modeled Pinay Collection's new tees!
dancing for exercise and finetuning the choreography i learned last year. not aiming for perfect (what does that even mean), but for maximum expressiveness. (expressionmaxxing?)
