Toronto Art Crawl! I’m doing a bunch more shows between now and Christmas!
Posts by Jess/John, depends on the day
Portrait of an artist standing behind their table at a market. Lots of colourful items of the illustrated variety.
Please view this very cute photo of me from today. I was adorable.
If anyone’s free this weekend in Toronto I’ll be at Toronto Art Crawl’s first holiday market! It’s a free event and I’ll be debuting my laser cut items this Saturday! It’s at the Bentway.

If you guys want to see the project I worked on last year it’s coming out at the end of the month! It’s called Fellow Travelers.
In solidarity with my actor colleagues in the US, I won’t be posting any of my work from the series until they receive a fair deal with the AMPTP.
The pins and eye earrings are coming together tooooo ♥️
At pride this year the Home Depot float went by and a pair of gay men behind me were like “what kind of gay likes Home Depot?”.
Me. Other nbs. Butches. Give us the power toooolllllsssssss!!!
The acrylicing had begun.
Also my lungs and throat and sinuses fucking hate me because I spent 8h over the last two days lasering acrylic, making super fine plastic dust, and hanging out in a woodworking space with wood dust everywhere. Kill me.
Wait till you see them in THEIR FINAL FORMS (different and multiple colours). I’m going back in to do more cutting over the next few days so you’ll see me posting more as they come along!!
The tests came out greaaattttt~
Black and white layouts for a set of art nouveau/gothic jewelry I’m working on.
There’s only a couple of you in here, so you get to see the line of acrylic jewelry I’m working on. I’m almost done but I’m stuck on what to put in the centre of the one pin.
GIMME SUGGESTIONS.
That lamp shade is next level. I love it so much!!
Special shout out to my cat who waits until I am snuggled into a hot bath to have the rankest, smelliest shits 1m away from where I am enjoying myself.
The sequel: is this allergies or did I get COVID (the daily fear).
A round black cat watching a horror movie. She’s sitting on two pillows covered in pink mushroom sheets.
She never used to watch TV but she started since I began playing Baldur’s Gate. I thought it was the game only but she sits up on my pillows and watches movies too now???
New hobby acquired in adulthood I guess?
One of the most annoying things about migraines is my brain is on overdrive and it will come up with the most wonderful and crazy compositions, but I’m a fucking potato and I can’t do anything about it.
I aspire to be on a whiteboard like that some day.
A two tone laser cut acrylic cameo pin with a red centre featuring a skull.
Laser cut Christmas trees and reindeer out of ornate papers.
Some more laser tests from last night! The frame on the cameo pin will change; I was mostly just testing whether I could do an inset of another colour (I can, yay!).
A movie I did some concepts for finally came out so I can share some cool knives I drew! I don't know if they went with either of these looks but who cares, gotta draw cool knives and be paid for it :)
@thesandlord.bsky.social I saw you liked this post. Come over here and give us ink recipes.
;0; so cute!!
A friend of mine has made inks out of golden rod and black chestnuts, both of which are in season rn. I could ask for the recipe?
OH MY GOD THIS IS SO CUTE!!!
Oh poor little (big) man!!
I regularly have little existential crises over the fact that I have a little cat who just loves me??? She lives in my home and will just sit on my entire arm to get me to pay attention to her.

A pair of laser cut acrylic eyes in the palm of my hand :)
Doing fun experiments with neon acrylic in my laser class ♥️
I can’t wait to finish it so I may be unleashed upon the machines and use them to my hearts content!!
I want to sit like a little gay neurodivergent in this car dealership waiting room but I am bound by social expectations!!!
These chairs were not made for normal sitting but I absolutely cannot put my feets on them in this open, airy hellscape.
I want to know why the camera on my phone is significantly worse than the one from a phone outmoded like a decade ago.
A little Tabby named Bernie doing a stretch on a window will bed overlooking a cityscape.
A different little Tabby named Tabitha affectionately getting ear scritches on an orange-red couch.
I’m cat sitting two little tiny tabbies this week and I LOVE THEM ;0;
They trill constantly and as someone whose cat makes almost no noise this is extremely charming!!
SAG-AFTRA Strike, explained
Coni & Rodrigo were my table mates the last time I did TCAF! You guys share the role of friends I made by tabling next to each other.
Boooo. I’m happy for you but dad for me because that’s a whole different province!
