One Of My Favorite Sketchbook Spreads!

I keep meaning to share my sketchbook spreads here, here’s one from a couple weeks ago!

my work doodles are what I draw on sticky notes throughout the day at work 🌟 once I have enough, I stick them in my sketchbook!

I’ve been enjoying this bit of breaking the rules when it comes to keeping a sketchbook. Sometimes I can’t just whip it out and draw in it when the desire strikes, but I can certainly doodle on sticky notes discreetly to fulfill the need 🌟

I am making outfit moodboards inspired by my zines!! this is so much fun 🌟

finished my PMDD mantras zine! the black and white background text are mini zines that I wrote when I was in the depths of PMDD hell and having a hard time accepting that it’s something I struggle with. it made me so sad reading them back and seeing how much I was struggling and seeing how I spoke about myself. In the months since, I’ve started to accept it more and started to figure out how to deal with it while I find a new doctor to discuss possible treatment. I created this zine while in my follicular phase and feeling full of life. I hope that my luteal self will use this as a physical reminder when it’s not enough to remind myself in my head. and maybe it can help you, too 🌟

very disappointed that Landing is shutting down as I found it to be such a fun and easy space to make and share art

even more disappointed that they are instead going to launch a platform called Zeen where creators (specifically targeting fashion creators) can create little blog posts with their affiliate links more easily accessible

which like good for them I guess that’s something those types of creators were missing but playing off the name zine for a platform that is going to be used to sell people shit they don’t need is such a bastardization of what zines and the zine making community are for

zines don’t rely on ad space to get a message across and they are inherently diy, to name an influencer platform after them is gross
