POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Collab with @andrerucker has officially dropped!

We’ve been quietly and carefully crafting this one and it doesn’t include our usual mediums but, she might just be our best work yet.

Our lives have been heavy with heartache since the fall as we’ve experienced loss in ways we couldn’t have anticipated. Life took us away from our work, our time at home, and any sense of normalcy but, this little girl was a surreal and welcome surprise in the midst of the hardest times.

Friends, meet Zinnia. She’s already unleashing facial expressions that speak volumes and teaching us so much. She’s a force and I can’t wait to see her take on the world.

I’ve been guarded throughout this chapter so my appreciation for the beautiful family, friends, and community that have supported us in every big and small way through the first leg of this journey is deeper than words can say.

I’ll get back to some degree of regularly scheduled wood programming after I catch up on some sleep and cuddles.

"Light Touch" by @andrerucker

Created for a @businessweek story examining the uneasy relationship between war, oil, and global politics, this image by @andrerucker transforms a missile into a ruptured vessel — suspended in a moment of controlled collapse. Built entirely in 3D, the piece allowed each element to be shaped independently, balancing precision, symbolism, and restraint to distill the underlying tension of the story into a single striking visual.

Created for @businessinsider’s story on Pinterest’s growing use of open-source AI, @andrerucker’s illustration explores the layered systems operating beneath the platform’s polished surface. The image visualizes the hidden technological infrastructure powering the platform behind the scenes.

Overthinking your creative ideas can trap you in an endless loop of thoughts, keeping you stuck in your own mind. The only way to break free is to bring those ideas into the real world and discover what’s actually possible.

Even when the pressure of time is on, that’s often when it matters most to act. Perfection can wait movement can’t.

Thank you, @andrerucker, for sharing how you move past overthinking. In that moment, you helped me quiet the noise, take action, and give my ideas a real chance to live.
