this oneās called Lonesome George and was inspired by my Mummier and pops house right on the Chesapeake in southern VA. I spent so much time there as a child and saw so many herons there. My mom was just telling me both my Mummier (grandma) and Katie (my greatgrandmother) loved herons and cranes and storks and that Katie had one that sat on a rotted tree branch in the water by her house everyday that she called āLonesome Georgeā āØšŖ¶

Annesley Bug blends illustration with traditional quilting, creating vibrant, whole-cloth works that center joy, comfort and care.
In contrast to minimalism, these pieces embrace fullness. Pattern, color and texture come together in ways that feel both playful and intentional.
As a disabled, queer artist, Annesley lets their body set the pace. Slowness becomes part of the work, shaping each piece with attention and care.

Thank you SO much for all the support this year, you all made it possible for me to work my way into making my art full time! Itās such a joy, and incredibly important for me, with my chronic pain, to be able to rest when I need. I am so lucky and so happy that this is my life!!!
