She is a thing of beauty ♥️

Finally unboxing my Smith-Corona Galaxie in cursive script font!

I impulse bought this a few weeks ago and I’m excited to feature it in my vintage typewriter museum.

Just look at at those letters! I could type on this for hours…

I think I’ll take this out for Art Crawl this Friday & put her through her paces 😉 see you there!

My largest piece of typewriter art yet.
A poem about coming home.

Excited to share that I am featured in GRIT, an exhibition premiering at Supercrawl that explores how Hamilton and its people survive and persevere.

“I LIVE IN A FACTORY TOWN” is hanging in @b_side_farside from Sept 8-Oct 5. Every mark on the page was made using a Remington 17 typewriter: the first machine I ever fixed.

Stop by. I might be there typing poems.

Special thanks to @lkheaney & @j.letten_art for inviting me to take part 🙏

Fun poem from GROUNDWORKS yesterday 📠

The energy was great, and I managed to film a lot of my favourite poems from the crowd.

Might post some more, would love to see any photos/videos you all have from these events! 🙌

Shoutout to @groundworksfestival for letting me post up and write my typewriter poetry 🤙

Mail Call! 📬

I’ve been receiving more letters for my typewriter mail club, this time from all around the world!

The shop has been busy since I got back, so it was nice to take some time to read these hand-typed letters and hear from other typewriter enthusiasts.

Let me know if you’d like to join and send me a letter, and I’ll send you one back :)

Thank you to those who wrote me, and check out my new friend @barrenrivertypewriter 📠

An unforgettable experience with truly incredible people 🏕️

I just spent the last week journeying across Georgian Bay with my typewriter, family, and friends. 12 of us kayaking, canoeing, and portaging our way through a world of living poetry, discovering more than just the landscape.

Part of me wanted to do justice to this trip, overlaying my words torn from the pages of the journal I carried, typed and pasted onto a few scattered photos of memories. I like to think it mirrors the pieces of ourselves we shared with each other out there.

I’ll be writing about this trip for years to come.

My workshop is once again open for all typewriter needs.

Glad to be home ♥️

Huge thank you to @killarneyoutfitters for helping organize this trip! 🛶

This one’s for you, Mom 🌺

I’ve been trying out some typewriter art on my new cursive typewriter. This flower came to me recently and I can’t think of a better way to share it.

My Mom is one of my heroes, and she has supported me through the years as I have pursued my passions, and brought my dreams to bloom.

Happy Birthday Mom ♥️ I love you

Art Crawls next Friday. This interviews not about that Art Crawl but maybe all these people will all be out there still.

If you’re one of these people please correct me if I’m wrong.

Some BTS shots from the studio :)

Trying out some new card designs, new typewriters (always!), and even reflecting a vintage Hermes Baby

Sometimes you gotta slow down and appreciate the process 🪷
