About Me

I'm a mixed media artist and dancer (partnered dances like the Lindy Hop and Blues). I love taking art classes of all kinds and trying out all the art materials I can get my hands on.

I love sending mail and have a few pen pals that I write to regularly, and also participate in Postcrossing and Artist Trading Card swaps.

I start working on swaps as soon as they are assigned.

If you have not received a swap from me, please message me before rating a 1! I send out ALL swaps. I will happily resend!

If there has been a misunderstanding about swap requirements, please message me before rating a 3. I will happily discuss it with you, and fix any mistake I have made and resend the swap!

Thank you and happy swapping :)

Favorite Crafts

I love collaging, journaling, making mailable art, ATCs, postcards, letter-writing, making new pen pals, decorating envelopes, papercrafting, bookbinding, mixed media, watercolor, alcohol ink, die cutting, making cyanotypes and gelli printing. Hope to spend more time practicing drawing and linocutting/stamp carving.

Favorite Music

I mostly listen to jazz and pop. Some songs I have been listening to more lately: Sara Bareilles - Gravity, Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek, Gorden Webster - Mo' Better Blues, Surfaces - Sunday Best, Ray Brown Trio, Ray Bryant, Ray Charles.

Favorite Books

Snail Mail by Michelle Mackintosh, Real Fast Food by Nigel Slater, Collage Your Life by Melanie Mowinski. I mostly read non-fiction these days and the last audiobook I finished was How to Keep House while Drowning by KC Davis.

Favorite Television

Hacks, Succession, Industry, White Lotus, Landscapers, Insecure, The Leftovers, Big Little Lies, Big Love, Treme, Weeds, Carnivale, Six Feet Under, The Big Door Prize, The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin, The Buccaneers, Ghosts

What I like and collect

Anything postal themed like: postage stamps, rubber and clear stamps, non sticky memo papers, stickers, name tag labels, mailing labels (basically anything with a frame), anything Tim Holtz, postcards, washi tape, Clear PET tapes with floral, vintage and people-themed designs, mini coin envelopes, glassine envelopes, sticker or die-cut flowers, birds, butterflies, phrases, old book pages and ledger pages with writing on them and other interesting papers like flash cards, bingo cards, library cards, library pockets, vintage tickets and ephemera, pens, journaling supplies, vintage children's books, maps, vintage stationery, dies, embossing folders, travel themed patterned papers, watercolor, vintage tins, traveler's notebook accessories, watercolor palettes, mini brads, eyelets and art supplies.

I really like vintage bird, fish, butterfly, moths & botanical illustrations and hope to be able to draw them well one day. Ferns are a favorite motif of mine.

Colors: I love a mint green (like light phthalo green) and anything blue green, hot pink, Payne's grey, olive greens, and lavender and purple and dislike orange and warm colors in general.

Sweets: I love gummy, sour candies and chocolate.

Teas

I love chai, matcha, Thai tea, dessert flavored roobios teas, black tea, cinnamon, and barely tea. There may be more I enjoy that I haven't tasted yet!

Comment: I loved your olive green gelli print! I bought a gelli plate last fall, but I didn't have a chance to use it because of my mom's health crisis. Well, she lives with me now, and she loved your card. So I showed her my plate, and we're going to do some gelli printing this summer. Thanks for inspiring us both! She's very artistic and creative, and I've been looking for ways to get her involved in artsy stuff as her health improves!
Response: Oh thank you! I'm crazy about gelli printing - and once you get going you will print and print! The nice thing is that you can use things like copy paper and deli paper and any type of acrylic paint you have on hand!

Comment: I enjoyed your note. Sounds like a lovely weekend. Your handwriting is perfect! I am jealous. It was only in the 50s here in Michigan all week, but over 60 today so I am hoping to get some flowers planted. I don’t enjoy doing it, but do like when it’s done. Hope this weekend is a good one too!

Comment: Thanks for the great "ugly" postcard for this swap. When I see postcards like these it bares asking the question, "What was the photographer or creator thinking about?" Lol!

Comment: Holy cats! I was thinking myself in danger of melting today at 70 odd degrees! I live in the shadow of a rainforest on close enough to the ocean that we hear seals. The ATC takes my breath away. I looks like home ☺️

Comment: Lisa: Thank you so much for your swap! This was my first time receiving wax seals, and they're SO cool. I enjoyed all the different die-cuts you sent, and I'm curious about how I can use them in future projects! I also loved the zine-- maybe I'll put the knowledge to use soon! Thanks so much, and Happy Swapping!

Sorry I was so late rating! I thought I had already rated you! Trust me, it wasn't because I didn't love your swap. Thanks again!
