Since I was a kid, there’s probably no one I’ve felt a kinship with more than book character Amelia Bedelia. Her whimsical misunderstanding of every imaginable directive made her not only charming, but infinitely relatable to every neurodivergent girl on earth. In fact, her wackiness in part inspired the theme of this issue of @nectarinemagazine because, as you can see, Amelia’s perspective isn’t like everyone else’s. Thank you to @linneabullion and @the_foodartist for helping bring this dream of mine to life!!!! In the comments, let us know if you can figure out what the misinterpreted chores represented are 🐟
What can I say? I love treating hands like they’re people (See @nectarinemagazine Dreams cover starring @itsyasara ’s gorgeous digits!) Inspired by the tiny c-stand I finally bought on a whim, and some custom Nectarine apple boxes, this shoot for the Perspective issue of @nectarinemagazine came together better than I even expected. Please do not miss the tiny tape rolls, sandbags, cords etc made by hand by @amesbond who is the greatest miniaturist I know 🥹 thank you to @stephaniegonot for shooting 📸 hand models @shelbydate + @m_a_r_y_m_o_r_g_a_n_ for being down to play 🤚@candacevkim for gorgy nails and @wetnoodlesinc for retouching 🤌
It was a purple party!!! Finally getting around to making a much-delayed post to recap our incredible @nectarinemagazine release soiree a bit over a week ago.

2025: the year in work. A weird, inconsistent one but got into my groove midway. Thank you to all the wonderful production companies and clients who kept me busy — in particular @michysl@colourpopcosmetics for hiring me to make Shrek’s swamp, the Grinch’s lair and many other weird worlds to come! Thanks to everyone who collaborated with me in 2025, instagram only let me tag 20 of you so I am sorry to those I missed!! Most importantly, thank you my wonderful agents @redeyereps for continuing to lift me up — especially @tippyyich who is easily the GOAT in repping talent. Also, there are small peeks in here of @nectarinemagazine which will finally be released this month! Invite for release party to come ✌️
