If you’re still looking to start your year in April, we’ve got you covered! A new batch of calendars have landed :) starts April 2026-March 2027 because why not?
Thanks to everyone who came out this weekend! Felt so special to celebrate some joy and the arrival of spring in the midst of this chaotic world we’re living in. Thank you for supporting my artwork, and supporting @hibookspdx . I love being part of this community.
Thanks to @daneover for bringing the tunes always, what would we do without ya! And @corolla_whorlofpetals for the beautiful flowers! Thanks @casualjeffy and Fawn of @hibookspdx for making a space that is open to supporting artists of all kinds and being a true community resource that reflects more of what we all want to see in the world.
Also thanks to @colorhauspdx I’ve been working with them for almost 10 years and they are amazing printers in town. 💜 get your work printed from them. :)
Come celebrate the ushering in of 🌻🌸SPRING 🌸🌻 at @hibookspdx one week from today! I’ll have plenty of calendars 📅 in tow that start in APRIL and end in MARCH 2027. It’s for the lingerers, the dreamers, the hibernators and everyone who finally feels like they’re sprouting after a long resting (tiresome?) winter. I’ll also have a few paintings on display!
There will be some special food dishes made to celebrate this vernal equinox. I’m hoping for some inspiration from Leon so we’ll see what we come up with!
A special thank you to @hibookspdx for hosting and to @daneover and @casualjeffy for bringing the 🎼 always.
I’m of the mind that winter is for rest....a time for slowing, steadying, letting it all simmer and ruminate. Maybe this comes with age, maybe not. For some years now, the struggle of push, create and make into a product has been fueled by this need to have things done before the new year. Often for the sake of selling for the holidays, the exact time when I’m at my lowest energy albeit inspired to make crafts with Leon.
I say to this pattern, “no more!”
From now on, the execution of deadlines in times of low capacity need not happen!
“My calendar will start in April!” I said to family members and friends recently...(a slow but supportive...’okaaaay’ was typically their reply”
SO yes, this calendar starts in APRIL 2026 and runs through MARCH 2027. It’s a collection of my most beloved paintings from 2025 and I’m very proud of it.
Thank you for supporting a non-traditional, self care centered project this year :)
