Thoughts on Art & Business
How A Working Styles Doc Just Changed The Game…
I recently onboarded a new client who came prepared with a fabulous Working Styles doc. I couldn’t believe how helpful it was to have all of that information laid out for me upfront. It was simple, streamlined, and such an effective way to understand her preferences and how she likes to work.
I was so grateful for the clarity it offered that I knew right away I needed to create one of my own. After drafting my version, I realized it could be just as helpful to share here—for future clients to reference and for anyone who might want a starting point to customize for their own needs.
Working From Home With Seasonal Affective Disorder
Over the years, I’ve tried lots of things to combat the dreaded darkness that comes with winter: medications, tanning, vitamins, special light bulbs. One of the most helpful approaches, though, has been a more holistic mindset—one that honors and respects the seasons and the different energy they bring. The earth moves through phases, and as part of nature, I think it’s important to honor those shifts. Here’s kind of how I view the seasons and their general vibes:
Art lately : July 2025
I’ve been making things again.
And it feels undeniably good.
Making art soothes me. I can literally feel my nervous system slowing down, calming, and settling into a natural rhythm as I draw.
I’m so grateful that art does that for me. When I was growing up, that wasn’t always the case.
Pixel Projects : July 2025
Take a peek behind the curtain at my first-ever attempts at pixel art. I had fun! I learned a lot! 10/10 recommend.
Designing a Workspace That Works for You
I have spent hundreds—probably thousands—of hours working from my couch. While I’m still not against that by any means, I must admit it wasn’t always what was best for me. In just a few months, the physical and mental benefits of having a dedicated workspace have already changed my life.
developed: batch 1
Today, I wanted to share some photos from the fall of 2020. If you’re into this kind of thing, do yourself a favor and rescue a film camera from the thrift store. If you’re anything like me, you’ll be entertained. 📸🎞️
