Next Sunday is the Midsummer @witchesmarket.atx at @yarrowandsage from 12-6pm. Get out there!
.
I collaborated with Nanny’s Creations (my paternal grandmother) on a whole new line of pine needle baskets for the summer. P@tre0n subscribers got first dibs, so you’ll have to come out to the market and see what’s still available! I’ll also have a bunch of new stickers and buttons to share with y’all so come shop the summer goodies. Masks requested.

Lil #tbt for the children. No, but really, I am still recovering from adventures over a week ago. Dang, I love friends.
.
End of May, I hosted my 5th @creativecutiesatx Sprout Session creative meetup at @deardiary_coffeehouse (feat. a delicious sandwich by @chef_jrodi which you can grab from there!). Afterwards, I immediately ran out to finally see @thisismesmerize at @nativehostel and support cuties @aerica.raven and @deadbloom.art working their booths. Then, I swung by @witchesmarket.atx to pick up some goodies from other cuties @wildmeadowhome, @darkmorbidart, and @justpake. It was an epic day which I followed up with some spray painting (and more friends!) at @blockparty and @eltacorrido the next week/weekend, then last Monday made it out to my first Beat Session at @spokesmancoffee to witness the team battle between @brittpaintsalot + @everydayresearch vs @kimieflores + @tarboxx2. It was SICK. They are all so skilled an inspire me more and more everyday.
.
Anyways, Austin’s creative community is beautiful and I’m glad things are thinging again, but also that I’ve gotten my ambivert buns out to some events I’m not directly involved in just to support the scene. If you want to get into it, get out! I have so many wonderful, silly, creative souls in my life and I am grateful every day that I get to be a part of it. It’s like living in a wild dream every time I leave my front door. Then, I come back home and spend a week shut-in, crouched over my computer writing emails and coding and wonder if I just imagined it. But then I go out again and realize it was all real. Just magical.
.
Speaking of magical, Midsummer Witches Market is happening June 20th and I’ll be making my second vendor appearance for the year. Mark those calendars. Keep it cute.

Observe: two frogs enjoying a taco picnic. New mural finished up today from the lady jam this weekend at @eltacorrido! Thanks for having me out @brittpaintsalot and @oliveoilcrew. 💖🐸
.
Check the Murals tab in my stories for a video of this wall showcasing Austin’s lady muralist talent. Wonderful works thrown up this weekend by @autumn_in_mae, @paolaasire, @lore.low, @oliveoilcrew, @l.rhae, @pandadarlin, and @brittpaintsalot, tied together with flowers by @helena_paints.
.
These picnicking frogs are two Texas native species, the spotted chorus frog and the green tree frog. I would like to picnic with them, wouldn’t you?

Super Flower Blood Moon live painting I did last night during @blockpartyatx at @containerbar_atx. Thank you @pain_t.by.delone for pre-eclipse moon unit chatties and sending me the perfect reference photo when inspiration hit the next morning! And always big thanks to the @spratx team and all the @blockpartyatx partners for giving us a venue to put ourselves out there.
.
I took the opportunity of getting a wall panel (that will be buffed and reused for later events) to practice a style I’d not done yet in spray paint. I’ve done a lot of animals and cutesy stuff, but portraits always seemed very intimidating due to the finer details. This was definitely a challenge, but I had so much fun and am pleased with the end result. Super excited to get back at it again tomorrow!

I did an interview with with @voyageaustin Magazine that was just published today. Made it on the cover for their Change-Makers Series! Check that link in the bio to read about my very bumpy journey into my creative career.
.
Big thanks to @almostrealthings @spratx @spratxignite @witchesmarket.atx @bossbabesatx @crafthermarket
@blockpartyatx @polis_creative @vandals.container @_unknowncollective @hopecampaign for everything y’all have done to open up this community everyone, including myself. Big shout outs to all my pals in @creativecutiesatx for trusting in me and helping me pass that energy along! And lastly, thanks to everyone who’s cheered me on and supported me from the beginning. I could not have gotten where I am without my wonderful friends.
.
Low key: I got three rejection letters last week, so this was a wonderful and welcome reminder that I am heading the right direction. I just need to keep trusting in the process and I will get there.

CONGRATS TO @bsoper2015 ON WINNING THE BARREL!!!
.
I’m held my first ever raffle for this custom wine barrel I started live painting at @_unknowncollective’s RISE UP event at @theaustinwinery. Our lease is up in a couple of months so I am trying to prepare!
.
I finished painting this barrel a few weeks ago, adding the monstera deliciosa to the back and sharpening details on the whale and other foliage. After that, I coated the entire barrel with a polyurethane clear coat for extra protection. The top has been painted turquoise (mtn 94 Erasmus Green). It would look great poolside or on a verdant back patio! If you had a round piece of glass or wood, it could be a super cute, artsy bar table. Just some ideas to get you thinking!
