I mean…the cuteness overload is high with this one! instagr.am/p/CrXOa-lrsZN/

Molalla artist retreat is a wrap! We successfully removed the intimidation factor and began learning to code for our light-based art projects. We went from ‘not knowing what we don’t know’ to knowing what we don’t know’. That’s a GIANT STEP! instagr.am/p/CrSQpiZL9mq/

Artist retreat in full swing! Learning learning learning. Loads of great resources from @adafruit -really glad for this opportunity and the kindness of other people’s dads. Specifically, Howard and his wife Caroline. instagr.am/p/CrOTYB0LPj-/

I’m taking my art seriously for the first time in my life. I’m working on a portfolio on Behance, (link in my bio). I’ve entered the Afterglow trees in two art festivals. I’m forcing myself outside of my comfort zone. It’s both exhilarating and intimidat… instagr.am/p/CrHJ2tuPUNR/

I’ve been working on this so long, I dreamt about it last night. In my name, the Octopus was named Christian. So… meet Christian! . Thank you @sneakycatstudio - this is a challenging and rewarding pattern! Let’s see where I go with it next! . #poly… instagr.am/p/CqygyfivQbL/

Remember when I said two hours ago that is was Saturday, but not Caturday? Whelp, that changed quick with an emergency text from a neighbor to help a stranded cat is a tree! I put on a coat that he cat could dig into, get some thick gloves, expected I’d … instagr.am/p/CqOdLX_P1Ww/

Tonight (Saturday, Feb 11) is the last night of the @portlandwinterlightfestival and I'm struck by the love and joy I've been witnessing for 9 consecutive nights! This photo by @brookehoyer captures a wonderful moment in which I met @linneasbg for the fi… instagr.am/p/CoiY7y6y7F8/

It takes a village, and these are my villagers. . Not in a million years did I imagine I’d install art in a window display for the Portland Winter Light Festival. I’ve been a festival visitor, supporter, and volunteer. Now I’m Communications Director AN… instagr.am/p/CoDP6JkvWUl/
