this is me making raindrop collectors ep release show poster bc I GAF !!!! i have watched this band since they first started to jam at Towers Open Mic 2024. their growth and development has been an honor to witness. from going to every show to sitting in discord calls while connor writes, i am truly grateful for the art they have created. i had a lot of fun making this, and i took a lot of inspiration from connor’s Blue Guitar, an instrument that truly resembles himself, and an instrument that is like no other. i as well had the esteemed honor to include The Fade onto this poster, connor’s first band. i was there at their pinakel show at the former Rest Art Gallery in 2023 before i had even known connor. i remember that night fondly, and that night ended up being the start to connor’s musical journey that shaped him into who he is now. it’s all been leading up to this, and i couldn’t be more proud. thank you, raindrop collector.

hello all, i am finally hitting my creative flow after a long winter of hibernation. i’ve finished painting my first vinyl and CD of 2026, i plan on making more in preparation for the bigsby market opening back up so i can display them all. i’ve been getting super inspired by my friends lately, and i’ve had a few emotional upheavals that have been getting my creative neurons firing more and more. my good friends of the band raindrop collector performed this past saturday at the ithaca diy festival, and their music has been stuck very firmly in my brain since then. the audio you are listening to is from a video of that set — i say that every song is my favorite song, but this one scratches a very specific itch in my brain that compels so much out of me, art and emotion, it’s difficult to describe. i have a project coming up that i am very excited for, i think yall will enjoy it. for now, here’s me in my “art studio” (plus some music and peter on a bike). (shoutout to cafe bustelo, lord of the rings, and don’s exodus cheese for the assistance of my art) much love to you all

ladies and germs i present to you the very first song ive ever written. i wrote it for a songwriting class a couple of winters ago and completely forgot how to play it until just recently. i wrote this song about a walk i went on with my younger brother, nash, who was about 3 at the time. him, my mother, and i go on walks to this park i had always gone to growing up. adventuring with him always creates new memories that i’ll cherish forever. so the storytelling in this song means quite a lot to me. this song is called ‘mountain boy’ i hope you find joy in it

little doodles that i like

ive been waiting so patiently to share this one and today is the day!!!! 🌀🍃 i made this for my dear friend mo and i couldn’t be more excited she trusted me with such a project. i’m definitely wanting to paint more pickguards and guitar bodies hopefully sometime in the future. more projects on their way!!

octopus or parasite? 🐙 i’ve been super inspired lately, so i decided to try out some finger painting for this one. the masking tape ripped off the paper sticker on the vinyl so i just colored it in w sharpie and hoped for the best. the uneven texture on the paper made it hard to get some symmetrical circles, but hopefully it’s not too distracting. i also could have done a better job taping the edges, some paint smeared thru which left big paint marks that were pretty hard to get out. i came up with this idea the night before i even started it, so i completed this one fairly quickly. it was awesome to see my imagination actually take hold and create exactly what it was picturing, sometimes that’s never the case when painting these. gonna make more like these, hopefully i can get the technique down. might even experiment with making one a show poster🤔 - - - #paintedvinyl #seacreature #acrylicpainting #dotartwork
