Here we go!

So here we are. New site, new blog, new little corner of the internet to stretch out in.

I’ve been wanting a space that feels a little more open-ended for a while now. Somewhere between a sketchbook, studio notes, teaching journal, and behind-the-scenes ramble spot. A place where I can talk about what I’m making, what I’m teaching, what I’m noticing, and whatever creative thread I happen to be pulling on that week.

If you’ve followed my work for a while, you already know my days tend to bounce between art, design, and teaching pretty constantly. Some mornings I’m in the studio cutting up collage papers and testing materials. A few hours later I’m deep in a design history lecture or building assignments for class. Most of the time those worlds overlap more than they separate, and honestly, I’ve stopped trying to untangle them.

That overlap is probably what this blog will end up reflecting most.

You’ll find studio process posts, classroom thoughts, design history tangents, reflections on creative practice, shop updates, material experiments, and probably occasional posts where I’m just trying to think through something in real time. Some entries will be more practical. Some will lean reflective. Some will probably just be me showing you the pile of stuff currently taking over my desk.

I’m planning to post regularly, but not in a way that turns this into another thing to constantly feed. I want this space to stay connected to actual making and actual thinking, not just content for the sake of content. If you’d rather check in less often, the newsletter will round everything up each month along with some extra studio notes and updates.

Mostly, I want this to feel conversational. Less polished final product, more in-progress sketchbook energy. The in-between parts of creative work are usually the most interesting anyway.

So hey hi hello…thanks for being here. I’m excited to see what this space grows into.
