Hey all! Happy Halloween! I hope everyone has been doing well.
I've been very busy these past few months and I apologize for being so behind with updating my Patreon and mailing out stickers. 🙇♀️ I will be pausing November payments so that I can catch up with everything. 2023-10-31 17:05:58 +0000 UTC View Post

SURPRISE!!! I changed up the design for my Sticker Club's Spring postcard.
I wasn't feeling the previous design, and I wanted to do something that highlighted the season more, so I painted this! It's made with watercolors and I also touched it up on my iPad. Hope you like it!

Here is a WIP of both stickers I'm working on for May and June.
May's vinyl sticker is a fish seller cat, in the style of a maneki-neko. June's vinyl sticker is a cat paired with some strawberries. June is the month when strawberry is in season!

I've never played FF14, but I know a handful of people who play/have played it. I think the last MMORPG I played was either Ragnarok Online, or Phantasy Star Online Blue Burst. 😆

Hey everyone! Hope you had a nice holiday weekend. 👋
May Re-Cap:
Earlier this month, I had to unexpectedly fly back home to Seattle due to my Dad being in the hospital. Thankfully my Dad is okay, but the whole ordeal was draining and a bit scary.

Hey all! Apologies for the delay in this month's sticker progress. I traveled for the holiday, and ended up getting horribly sick with the flu, which took me about a week to recover from. I don't recommend getting the flu when you're 30, it sucks!!!
