I got to do a dog silhouette for a little one named Chiqui! This was exciting. Most of my dog portraits are hand drawn, so it was a good challenge to hand-cut this schnauzer out of paper.

Here is my 2023 #ArtVsArtist. I made stamps, lamps, and cut out a ton of house silhouettes. I even made a few planters (this is Shadow, a very good boi). I hope I get to make a lot more cutouts and teach more classes next year!

Tonight I taught a stamp-making class at the Little Village @chicagopubliclibrary branch. We made on emojis, names, pronouns, pets, the skyline, snarky stamps, and mushrooms. It was so much fun! I love seeing what everyone comes up with.

Today I taught a greeting card-making class at the Edgewater @chicagopubliclibrary branch. We made a lot of trees. I feel so satisfied and elevated after each class. I’d love to teach more!

Oh my gosh, so many events this winter! I’m teaching a whole bunch of free classes at the @chicagopubliclibrary starting this week. Art markets start in December. chipublib.bibliocommons.com/v2/events?q=...
