You people scare me and I sort of love it.

Come time-travel with me

If you’ve been here long enough you probably know that I’ve been doing an art substack where I share my strange doodles each week for years now (and I’m going to do at least one more year because I’m still loving it) but I decided to start a second one to share my very weirdContinue reading “Come time-travel with me”

(Possibly) haunted dolls needing a good home.

Mother’s Day is filled with conflicting emotions for a lot of us. I’m incredibly lucky that I have a mother who I adore. I’m enormously thankful that after lots of miscarriages and hundreds of injections I ended up with a small miracle in my daughter. I’m one of the lucky ones.
