A nice little mention from The East of the mural Chelsea MacCormack and I painted in June this mural is still for sale - please message if you know of any local businesses/organizations/etc. that might be interested in this piece of art (it's 8' x 8' )

I had so much fun creating my first mural with Chelsea MacCormack at Festival Inspire! Thanks so much to Chris Smith for this shot :)

Just finished up these patches for my friends, The Chimney Swifts, just in time for Evolve Festival 2019! You can catch them Sunday, 6pm in the yurt and they'll definitely have these for sale! Many thanks to them for getting me to print these, and many thanks to Backstage Printing for the workspace

I had an amazing time at Festival Inspire #5! Here is Chelsea and I's finished pop-up mural. So pleased to have accomplished this goal beside SUCH a gem of a human and friend <3 This piece is 8' x 8', and it will be up for silent auction on the Inspire website for the next two weeks! Thank you Inspire for all the care and hard work, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in this project. Thank you to everyone who stopped by or hung out with us while we worked... so many kind words, questions, inspirations and so much love! Thank you to all the friends who made it so FUN :) thank you to O'hirran Ryry and Kennedy MacKeen for this photo, and for being fantastic mural neighbors! And thank you to the natural beauty of the maritimes and the Petitcodiac River for providing us with all of the elements that became this piece.

Thrilled to be heading to Moncton this week for Festival Inspire #5 to paint a pop-up wall by the river with my sister Chelsea MacCormack catch us and many other local and international artists beautifying Moncton throughout the week!

Hey everyone! <3 Just wanted to share a couple of photos of the neon dream catchers I crafted for Kollektiv XIV recently... thanks so much to Grim Photography for these shots! I also plan and organize a lot of the art and installations for Kollektiv! We had so many talented artists contributing this year, thank you all so much for joining us <3 I have been spending a lot of my time crafting... working with embroidery, sewing clothing, leather, etc. but have not stopped painting either! More to show you soon :) Keep an eye here for more creations from me this summer

Whew! What an amazing weekend y'all! Kollektiv XIV was something really special. After a bit of recovery time, I just want to say <3 THANK YOU <3 to each and every person who attended, played, made any sort of contribution... and especially my team of artists and creatives for going above and beyond and working so hard to make things beautiful. Thank you to my co-organizer, Alex Abbass, for STILL making things beautiful, while holding it down stage managing AND playing a set and thank you to all of my fellow Kollektiv core organizers for all they've put in, in so many different ways. Love you all, can't wait for the next! <3 (fall dates coming at you soon!)

can't wait to create this world for y'all, alongside the so-talented Chelsea MacCormack

Hi friends! Maybe you've noticed less posts from me on here... I've been taking a tiny break from posting, allowing myself to be creative in more day-to-day ways, sketching lots of ideas, bullet journalling, and getting inspired. I'm dreaming of the ways I want to pursue art in my near future and really excited to get started on some projects again allowing yourself time to step back, recharge and re-evaluate is super important. <3
