I'm always writing, and when anybody would ask me "what do you write?" I'd say all kinds of weird things but I would never say "poetry". I learned this summer that I write a lot of poems. when someone asks what the book I'm working on is I never say "comic". I'll dance around it, "some combination of word and image", once in college in a critique my drawings were described as "picture poems" and I think I am chasing that. This however is a comic, my first comic!!!! It feels impossible that I've never made one, it seems like the most logical direction, but I am often lost and lacking reason. I feel like in this life I have to try all of the wrong things first, I have to cross everything else off the list, or else I'll be stuck dancin on the What If Cliff. I have always loved comics, I feel like something insatiable is awakening in me, a whole new hunger. Yum yum yum by @seesoforever

as abov,, so belo,, so they say,, say't'ain'tso! ♟️ constellations ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️offering below ⬇️⬇️⬇️

every year i think the dark is bad. the dark is bad! it's like pitch black at fucking 4pm and my brain short circuits & i enter the night realm. & im like oh wow i forgot how bad this is! & then it gets cold!
it feels like a betrayal, kicked while down. i am trying to stay in gratitude and practice discipline but it is hard bc my brain is not making a Crumb of Chemicals (unless, of course, i am having a treat, doing a scroll, getting a kiss, etc.... read: smoke,snack,scroll rinse repeat, indefinitudemente, doing anything else requires effort of great magnitude — read: unstoppable force meets immovable object. i know exactly what happens when they meet!)

i have decided, 2 combat this woeful disposition, i would facilitate a drawing "class" on zoom. i have been wanting to do this for years now! drawing is a portal, a way to talk to god. i think you can probably use whatever medium you'd like and apply the ideas — open 2 all peeps all mediums all drawing comfort-abilities && craftsmanship levels. will b especially good for people who love to draw and have not done it in a long time and feel it missing from their worlds. will be casual & low key & low pressure & free! i think you will find, as i have, that a lot of the things that stop us from drawing are all of the voices that come for us before we begin — and that by simply beginning, and by holding a playful curiosity, this world is always there for us, patiently waiting for us to come home. you miss play & play miss you!!!

idk when to do it yet!! maybe comment here if interested?? i'll make a list?? i think next week 6-8 on a weeknight?? by @seesoforever

haunted by snakes lately & feeling like Hermes has a bone to pick with me

typed a long pretty thing and lost it but here's the gist - the grief is immeasurable and knocks me off my feet so i spend a lot of time rolling around in the dirt. grief fuels my love for living. i spend countless hours moving rocks into shapes and rubbing rockstuff onto treestuff in shapes & im starting to feel like myself again.

lots of backed up tattoo stuff to post but also reassessing my relationship w this platform

good riddance mars retrograde I hate this app
books open for March & beyond in Kingston
just wanted these guys to have a spot on the grid idk I hate this app
Looping & contracted & winter & seemingly unending illness & I hate this app & also- my bike! ping ponging emotionally but spring will bring the upswing
nothing feels real, not out here anyway, and yet I keep getting sucked in 2 the matrix. It is dizzying to zoom so far out and so far in.

September came and went so fast
So excited to welcome you to Mirror World next month. Naming the space after the book idea that keeps me up at night feels right.
Need to learn to keep my mouth shut when I don't have time to articulate myself properly, everything is so nuanced. When I spit something off the dome I am later haunted by "yes ands". So:

drawings, flash, real fairy photos, portals
So terribly excited for the flash y'all chose this month.

love you guys taken in Kingston, NY by @seesoforever

more tattoo flash, will be opening books for October in Kingston soon @ the jewel box, so keep your eyes peeled for that. blankets should ship by next week. I have a few extra, if you missed the preorder hmu! also tattooers that want to guest @ the jewel box for October reach out - my days off are Tuesdays thru Thursdays so weekends will be totally available for guests.

been walking a tight rope lately between a hopeful place & a really deep pit, currently in the pit, trying to navigate my relationship to this evil app, which is the only way the art I make reaches places outside my bedroom. I want to make art that exists in the world, and I too want to exist in the world! I want to make tattoos for you & I am trying to figure out how to price them in a way that feels sustainable for me, and still accessible. My drawings take a long time, and while I am writing a class to teach people how to access the well of endless creative abundance that lives inside literally all of us, my relationship to that practice is still shaky. My relationship to myself is still shaky.
When I go too long without drawing I feel like I've "lost" it. When I have a gun to my head that I "have to" draw, I am unable to. Lately I am unable to draw for myself because of this weird pressure, and also other pressures, and there is nothing that is worth losing this practice to me!
been doomscrolling and filling my brain with bullshit & the work of other people too much, not letting any space form. The space is necessary for creative thought, for visitations. Other things necessary: movement, a regulated nervous system, time in nature, things I am also not doing, because I have a gun to my head that I ought to be drawing.
No space is being made, and then I force myself to sit down, and of course nothing comes, save for visions of art that is not mine, that feels truer and better than mine, and a loud pervasive self hatred. A trap of the thinking mind. I know the way out, im writing a class on it! And yet! "Any time you liberate yourself and end up in the same position, that is a demon." 👹 by @seesoforever
