If you live in SLC, go pick up the @slcweekly City Guide with my art as the cover! I did all the typography with yarn and nails, so they just printed a photograph of my piece for the cover😊 I love being a part of local publications like this! Thanks again @limonenrique for hooking this up! Tag your favorite local cool kid free magazine! @thestrangerseattle . . . #slcweekly #yarnsandnoble #yarnart #stringart #yarn #yarnporn #cityguide #saltlakecity #share #tag #tagsomeone #seattleart #seattleartist

This was a tough one, I might have to start charging extra for stripey ass cats with big whiskers. I used two different greens in the eyes as well. #yarnsandnoble #petportraits . . . #cats #petportraits #yarn #yarnart #cats #stringart #catsofinstagram #catart #catportrait #catportraits #yarnporn @cats_of_instagram @cats_of_world_ @catloversclub @catartshowla

I’m doing just a little bit on this daily as I’m working on other pet portraits. I’m booked up for the next 2-3 months with them!

I’m working on an ad for Seattle’s @pet_connection_magazine and want to do it all in yarn. I’ll probably change the websites colors up a bit to all colors that read well. I think I’m just gonna do my name and phone number on the bottom right and “custom pet portraits” on the bottom left. Then a bar across the bottom that has my email and other important info in actual type. Thoughts? Keep in mind this would print larger than a phone screen. . . . #typography #type #graphicdesign #ads #petportraits #petportrait #dachshund #dogs #yarnart #stringart #yarnsandnoble @dogs.lovers @dogs @dogsofinstagram @dogs_of_day @thedoxieworld @cutest.dachshund @dachshund_corner @crusoe_dachshund @dachshundappreciation

A lot of you saw my emotional breakup/wedding cancellation post a few days ago. I deleted it the next day for a few reasons. Mostly because a lot of people thought I punched the “willow you marry me” piece. I punched a cabinet, more of a love tap, that’s besides the point. I lost my temper and let my emotions get the better of me.... I’m so thankful for all of the words of advice and offers to hang out, it’s nice to know that I have so many people that love and care for me. My day job @riderseattle put me up in Hotel @theodoreseattle for the snow-pocalypse this weekend and it’s helping me get into a little bit more of a healthy mindset👏🏼I love my job and co-workers👏🏼Also, art has always been a part of my healing process and my way of coping, so I’m working through the pain. Here’s a pic of a pet portrait I’m working on while chillin in my room this weekend. Don’t worry y’all, I’m gonna be alright😘Thanks again for all the likes, DM’s and comments, they are really lifting me up right now. #lovehurts #humble #petportraits #catsofinstagram #arttherapy #hoteltheodore #seattleart
What’s a proper way to deal with a breakup? Crying, tearing up sentimental art, and punching something didn’t work. Hannah just doesn’t love me anymore, I didn’t do anything to hurt her, but I didn’t do enough to make her happy or feel secure either. She has a gut feeling that we shouldn’t be together and she can’t help how she feels. There’s more to it than this, but it’s of a personal nature for her, so please don’t ask for any more details. This was unexpected and I’m completely devastated and could use your company in the next...probably year of my life that it’s going to take for me to get over this. She is very upset too and could use comfort as well. Seattle, I need your support now more than ever, keep me busy with pet portraits, yarn commissions, cat house commissions, buy @vampirocorn , anything art related. I can’t stop crying because I know I can never stop loving her. #lifesucksthenyoudie
Finished with this cover to @slcweekly city guide issue coming up in April. First pic is final, last pic is client submitted sketch in the beginning. I would love to do more cover designs like this!!! @thestrangerseattle @seattlemet @seattlemag Also thanks @limonenrique for letting me get creative with it! . . . #slcweekly #utah #seattleart #seattle #yarnsandnoble #yarnart #stringart #coverart #design #graphicdesign #graphicdesigner
I had to look up fry sauce to see what it was when @limonenrique told me it was super popular in Salt Lake City...”Although sauce composed of a mixture of equal parts ketchup and mayonnaise appears in a New Orleans cookbook published in 1900, fry sauce was originally popularized in the United States by a chef named Don Carlos Edwards, who served it in his first restaurant, Don Carlos' Barbecue in Salt Lake City”... tell me that’s not mayonnaise and ketchup colored yarn😂 Tag someone in Utah! . . . #utah #frysauce #frenchfries #tagsomeone #saltlakecity #yarnart #yarnsandnoble #stringart #cheflife #share #follow #fromgeoftochef
