Welcome to this pocket of the internet where small things grow slowly 🍃
paper, thread, and plant matter gathered over time 🌱
maps ways to measure life beyond clocks and calendars
for days that feel heavy, soft, or in-between
nothing here needs to be finished.
reclaim the materiality of a day:
begin anywhere
In a world that doesn’t slow down, I’m creating spaces that do
I’m not a formal art teacher, just an art supply hoarder who’s more than a little enchanted with slow, tactile art-making.
I’m sharing the rituals and experiments that help me. Take what feels good and leave the rest.
I even made this pocket-sized art workbook filled with slow, tactile art practices to help me feel time differently. Download, print, use, repeat:
stay with something
long enough for time to soften
