HAPPY CYBER MONDAY! My print shop is FINALLY here and we are doing FREE shipping for all U.S. orders!!! I can’t believe it took me this long, but overcoming imposter syndrome has been a journey. For years, I couldn’t picture my art on a wall. But after the last four years of pushing myself creatively harder than ever, I’ve finally reached a point where I want to hang my own work—and now, I’m ready to share it with you all 🤍 Link in my bio on how to order your own! Each print will be carefully crafted by a local printer, personally embossed by me, and shipped directly to you. I’ve got some exciting releases planned, including exclusive prints and collaborations you haven’t seen before. Stay tuned! ✨ And shout out to @jackknife.creative for helping me get this shop set up! We’re still in the early stages of building this site out and I can’t wait to see how it grows 🤍

THANK YOU to everyone who has shown love and support to the “RETRO RESILIENCE: The 70’s Housewife Reimagined” series!!! When you like, comment, share, etc. it brings us creatives back to life in a world where social media continues to push us down. As an artist, there’s always this drive to reinvent yourself and bring the ideas swirling in your head to life. This project was exactly that for me—a chance to step more into directing and start building a dream team that not only gets my vision but amplifies it in ways I couldn’t achieve alone. The incredible team behind this project made it all possible, and I’m so grateful to them 🤍 Happy Thanksgiving, from our housewife to yours ✨ Photography + Creative Direction: @stephanieparsley Producer + Styling: @darcinaftulin / @jackknife.creative Model: @cro_meo with @wilhelminamodels Makeup: @makeupsammy Hair: @stylistgracemartin Vintage Clothing: @broadwaybazaarvtg Styling + Assist: @baileyzetajones Videography: @marygraceparsley Vintage Props: @midmodmike Location: @that.70s.chateau

RETRO RESILIENCE: The 70’s Housewife Reimagined | @lucysmagazine [ Part 1 ] The concept for this series began with inspiration from the classic film The Stepford Wives and evolved into a deeper narrative centered on a 1970s housewife archetype. This character has grown children who have left the home, while her husband is frequently absent, always “working.” Her daily life is a meticulous yet lonely routine—she cleans an already spotless home, monitors her weight, bakes for an empty household, returns from grocery trips to solitude, argues on the phone with her husband, dines alone, constantly forgets items in her 1977 Mercedes, and obsessively watches her neighbors, all while maintaining a glamorous image. Her story crescendos as she sits on the floor, savoring a piece of her freshly baked cake, while her “happy pills” (or perhaps a psychotic break) take hold.

After 10 years in marketing and advertising, I’m finding my own way to express what I'm most passionate about —creating incredible work with amazing people. I do this through set design/prop work, styling, producing, and offering creative direction (+ throwing the occasional concert on a mountain top), which allows me to be a jackknife across the projects I touch. I thrive on turning abstract ideas into tangible realities, balancing creativity with operational precision. @jackknife.creative is a reflection of my diverse skill set and love for collaboration, connecting audiences to brands and artists in meaningful ways.
