y’all. this was my first time building a … logo? design? from scratch with someone else’s vision, utilizing only the vague text description they provided! none visual cues.
i feel like i nailed it. 😎
next step: turn this drawing into a hand-carved rubber stamp to help them realize their decade of dreams!
i’m ready for more challenges like this one!
who needs a custom-designed, custom-made stamp to commemorate an event?
hit me up!!

neurographic drawing 101
wed. 12 july 2023
6:30-8ish pm
20-35 sliding scale
explore the inner landscape of your mind & learn a relaxing abstract drawing technique to incorporate into your creative practice.
this ultra beginner-friendly art process was designed by russian psychologist pavel piskarev to “link the conscious with the subconscious” in a meditative drawing style.
disclaimer: though i am trained as a counselor,
i am *not* a therapist and am not formally trained in art therapy. i have been using this technique in my own creative practice and enjoy the flow state i experience through the process; i want to share how simple it can be for anyone to create compelling, beautiful, and deeply personal art.
while supplies will be provided, bringing some of your own coloring tools (markers, pencils, crayons, pastels, inks, etc) for maximum enjoyment is highly encouraged!
space is limited! dm me to reserve your spot!

my very first
a simple lil spotted banana
that was also my first time using colored inks outside of a class setting. printing with only black ink for the last year-ish has been a satisfying process, but my color-seeking eyeballs have been starved for pigment!
super stoked for the ideas this process is inspiring!
catch this VERY limited edition print (i only made 8!!) irl at my next exhibition during pride month, all june!
dee em to reserve one before they drop in person!
