Radical Constructs

I donate proceeds from my Pride-themed earrings to the Trevor Project. We had a good show this weekend, so I got to donate a lot.

If you can spare something, maybe consider it. I know we don't all have money, but if you craft, you have other options. You can do what I do: make extra of something you were already doing and donate the profits.

Reminder - I do commissions!

The wonderful inspired me to remember the fun things I've done, and so we're wandering down memory lane while my hand heals from surgery.

I forgot about how much I liked this 3D model/style. The folded hands appeared in a few other projects of mine, but this simple pour was popular enough to warrant a custom version (the white one).

I wonder if I can reimagine this in the future...?

These were my first foray into jewelry, and specifically jewelry that was from reclaimed paint. I still try to reuse my leftover paint - I use acrylic and that's basically plastic so it's not good for the environment to just toss it.

My first business partner helped me make a lot of these, and also helped me take a lot of the photos for Etsy. We were very dorky.

Also, Etsy is bad. They mistreat their artists and are often just glorified Amazon. Buy directly from artists you want to support, or check out something like ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

Since I've been looking through old Etsy posts, I came across my old tendency to make truly silly display photos. Like, I wasn't selling anything and my posts weren't being seen anyway, might as well have fun with it.

I still occasionally do prints for this painting, upon request.

Ah, this sculpture. This was one of my first truly 3D sculptures (the skull was printed by and designed by Slicer11221 on Thangs 3D). I really liked this one, and it went to a good home! Now we have updated this model, and can make the antlers attachable by magnets.

Hilariously, these are photos for Etsy. Don't use Etsy, by the way. They are often just glorified Amazon, and they don't treat their actual artists well. Buy direct, or take a look at something like the amazing (ㅅ´ ˘ `)

Alright, back to reminiscing. And I should let you know - I do commissions!

The wonderful reminded me the other day of some of the fun projects I've done. As the calendar turns over, I wanted to look back at some of the things I haven't thought about in a while.

A long time ago, I used to make sets of Nordic runes. My partner made silicone molds for me, and I cast them in resin. Then I spent HOURS sanding them down, because I wanted them to feel almost like worry stones in your hand.

There are people who are much more advanced at making runes - comes to mind - but I do have a soft spot for these. I haven't made them in years. Maybe I should try again? Might be able to do it better now...

Happy New Year!

Seemed fitting to post a photo from back on Beltane. Kindle your light, respect the night.
