I also love earth but in a slightly less sinister way than this alien. 😬 #graphicdesigner #graphicdesign #digitalartwork #digitalart #illustration #montanaartist #illustrator

These are probably my favorite to wear of all the little beaded earrings I've been making! Unexpectedly! The hanging pearls remind me a bit of tiny bird sculls which give these a bit more of a gothic look. They are great to hang along side a longer pair in my firsts too. #beadingart #beading #handmadecrafts #handmadejewelry #jewelrydesign #montanaartist

because my life is tragic ✨ #graphicdesigner #graphicdesign #digitalartwork #digitalart #illustration #montanaartist #illustrator

I've been making so many of these light little seed bead earrings. These are just the right size and look great with my other piercings. #beadingart #beading #handmadecrafts #handmadejewelry #jewelrydesign #montanaartist

Another pair of hair clips that I made for myself! These ones are luna moths, and are probably the ones that I wear the most often. Cute! #beadingaddict #beadingart #handmadecrafts #handmade #montanaartist

These apple earrings were a gift for a friend for her birthday! They are so tiny and adorable! The other two photos here are projects in progress. The cat clock I still need to attach to something. I'm thinking a little bag for glasses or a phone? Ideas are welcome! 🙂 #handmadejewelry #handmade #beading #beadingart #illustrator #graphicdesigner

I was basically just having fun playing around with shapes for this one. The little moon rabbits gives be so much joy, and I had so much fun working with this color scheme! #illustrator #montanaartist #illustration #conceptartist #digitalart #digitalartist #graphicdesigner #graphicdesign

These were some of the first hair clips that I made last month! The are also one of the few that didn't end up as presents ha ha. I like wearing them 🙂 #handmadecrafts #handmadejewelry #beading #montanaartist

Made these beaded hair clips for a friend for her birthday this month! This is one of the more complex color patterns I've done, and I was happy with how they turned out! #beading #beadingart #handmadecrafts #handmadejewelry #jewelrydesign #montanaartist

I made these cards for Christmas this year for my friends and family! I love how they turned out, but I'm still working out some kinks with the stamp so these exact designs probably won't be available to purchase. It just makes them extra special gifts though! #graphicdesigner #handmadecrafts #conceptartist #conceptart #illustration #greetingcards #folkartist #colorfulprints #montanaartist #illustrator #linostamps

This is me trying to schedule some posts for this week. #digitalartwork #graphicdesign #illustration #montanaartist #illustrator

I discovered while making this that someone wrote a book with this as the title. This piece has no correlation that book and is not a recommendation to read it. I just wanted to draw a chill turt. If it's good tho let me know. #illustrator #montanaartist #folkartist #illustration #conceptartist #digitalart

I was super into beading in December, and here are a few hair clips I made as gifts! The are seed beads stitched together with a square stitch and I glued felt on the back for stability before attaching it to the barrette. #beadingart #beadingaddict #beading #handmadecrafts #dıy #jewelry #montanaartist

This gent is based off a fantastic little figurine I picked up at an antique store in Minnesota last fall. Look at his smug little face. Look at it. #graphicdesigner #digitalartist #conceptartist #illustration #montanaartist #illustrator #colorfulprints #folkartist

✨Butter Rug✨ The dignity your butter deserves. Had a lot fun on new years eve with friends painting some pottery in Whitefish 🙂 #graphicdesign #handmadecrafts #illustration #montanaartist #potterypainting #stumptownartstudio

This piece was basically just an excuse to paint with the colors from these pictures I took when I saw Beetlejuice in November. It was a fantastic experience and I will forever be in awe of the sets and props (and everything else) of a broadway show ❤ #graphicdesign #digitalart #conceptartist #illustration #illustrator #montanaartist #beetlejuice

Yes, this is about generative ai. #illustrator #montanaartist #colorfulprints #illustration #conceptartist #handmade #digitalartist #digitalart #graphicdesigner #antiaiart #noai #noaiart

🌍This phrase always knocks around my brain when I'm isolating and recharging after a lot of socialization. I have to phase into the void for a bit before my brain works again. I did this sketch in the middle of the night recently which was the inspiration. 🙂 #graphicdesign #digitalartwork #digitalartist #illustration #montanaartist #illustrator

I made these clay magnets for my sister's fridge for Christmas! While they may seem a bit random, I was trying to make her favorite foods or foods I associate with her. I'm especially happy with how the Lao Gan Ma jar turned out since she's obsessed with that stuff 🙂 (I also made a magnet of my cat for my own fridge) #handmadecrafts #handmade #dıy #montanaartist #clayart #clayminiatures #minitaturepainting #minitatures

These are little self portraits that I did while filling out the #struthless69 template from his "How to Actually Review Your Year" video of last year. (Fantastic video and channel and artist that you should definitely check out!) #graphicdesign #digitalartist #conceptart #illustration #montanaartist #illustrator

I'm really excited about this one! I made this little beaded coin purse for my friend for her birthday this month. I have been inspired by medieval beadwork for ages and really wanted to do something reminiscent! The flow of this "fabric" feels so incredible and it's actually pretty sturdy since the beads are individually stitched to each other. This technique was my obsession this month so you'll definitely be seeing more like this soon! #beadingart #beadingaddict #beading #handmadecrafts #handmadejewelry #dıy #sewingproject #jewelrydesign #montanaartist

I can finally post the Christmas gifts I've been working on this month! These are a bunch of ornaments that I made to give to friends and family🎄 I had a lot of fun with these because I didn't really have a design for each one, instead I just went with the path that each fabric and charm inspired! #beadingart #handmadecrafts #handmade #upcycled #dıy #sewingproject #folkartist #montanaartist

🏡 I can't take credit for this beautiful table because it is another wonderful work by my mom! It was a birthday gift and the perfect addition to my kitchen. I ended up adding some paint to the top to match the easel but she did all the hard parts! I did, however, make the stools that go along with it. These are another project I would love to make full-scale someday. (Basically just barstools with records on top.) #dollhouse #dollhousemakeover #miniatures #dollhousedecor #upcycle #handmadecrafts #dıy #montanaartist

🏡 Okay I think this actually the first thing that I made for my dollhouse. This easel was made from basal wood sticks. The canvases are cardboard covered with a tightly woven fabric. I prepped and painted them like I would have a real painting and there is even an underpainting on display on the easel. The rag is a scrap from my actual paint rag (which is an old t-shirt), and the paper towels are just that. ⭐BONUS⭐ The last picture is an incredible knitting and sewing basket that my beautiful mother made me at the start of my project! She even knit a tiny item for it 🥹 I believe she used half a styrofoam ball for the base. Now you see my love for miniatures is genetic! #dollhouse #dollhousemakeover #miniatures #dollhousedecor #upcycle #handmadecrafts #dıy #montanaartist

🏡 This cute little cabinet was just a kit that my mom found at the thrift store ages ago, (I don't think it's even technically to scale), but I gave it a paint job and it fits very well I think. This record player is something that my brother made me for my birthday! The arm moves and it goes perfectly with my mini Hozier album that matches my real-life vinyl! (The sewing machine was bought for me❤) #dollhouse #dollhousemakeover #miniatures #dollhousedecor #upcycle #handmadecrafts #dıy #montanaartist

I've been feeling passionate about how pigeons are treated lately. I also had the unique experience of trying to explain the "birds aren't real" conspiracy theory to my mom and younger brother the other day. This little illustration is the result of these two things 🙂 #graphicdesign #digitalartist #digitalart #illustration #montanaartist #illustrator #pigeonlove #birdsarentreal #consipracy

🏡 This couch was one of the more difficult items to make for my dollhouse! I really wanted to have a delicate and ornate piece to contrast some of the more modern stuff. My solution was to "sculpt" the illusion of detail with a gel medium you're supposed to add to paint. Otherwise it's cardboard with sponge cushions and a hand-sewn textured back. The guitar and amp are 3D printed and hand-painted. I also added some paper stickers to them. #dollhouse #dollhousemakeover #miniatures #dollhousedecor #upcycle #handmadecrafts #dıy #montanaartist

YOU ARE SILLY🫵 Well at least this little chicken is. I was trying to incorporate some of my favorite elements from Studio Ghibli and Moomin characters with this design. I don't feel finished with this lil' guy, so you may be seeing more of him! #illustrator #montanaartist #folkartist #illustration #conceptart #conceptartist #tattooart #digitalart #digitalartist #graphicdesign

🏡 Another early piece for my dollhouse! I would love to someday make one of the curio cabinet coffee tables for real, but for now I made a mini one! This is mostly made from toothpicks and little bits of wood. The lid is a clear bit of plastic I found, and the hinges are just paper. Set on top are a book, a pencil made from a toothpick end, a tube of paint (bought), and a tea set that I bought and added a few bead mugs to. #dollhouse #dollhousemakeover #miniatures #dollhousedecor #upcycle #handmadecrafts #dıy #montanaartist

When life gives you broke, make art, as they say. No one has said that, but it works for me. I've been on the lookout for the perfect pin-stripe jeans and I discovered yesterday that Crayola did a colab with Lee and made a bunch of cute 90's inspired workwear in bright primary colors! I want these particular ones desperately, but cannot justify spending $100 on pants right now. So instead I decided to draw them to scratch the itch. 🙂 #graphicdesign #graphicdesigner #illustrator #montanaartist #digitalartist #digitalart #fashion #leexcrayola
