New Art: A Sneak Peek
I'm in the beginning stages of a new body of work called Boxes, and when I opened an old sketchbook this week, I had 3 empty boxes drawn out! I was taking notes and doodling and decided to fill the boxes with art. It was only after that I realized I had drawn 3 more concepts for my series. I will be building boxes (original, right?) and filling them with art. Each box will highlight an aspect of my psyche, my neurodivergent gifts, or experiences I've had. Titles include Dark Night of the Soul, In the Hole, and now I think at least 2 of these will make the cut. The middle sketch I think will be felted wool for the center sphere and handspun wool for the vines grabbing on, and the right-side sketch will be called Stretched, and it will also be felted wool. I'm going to keep these under wraps except for these emails, so enjoy being a VIP!

I am a brand artist. I believe art has the power to help us express our most true selves to the people only we were designed to reach. I do commissioned art using my intuitive and empathic gifts in a collaborative process where the art deeply reflects the heart of the collector.

The Weekly Weird From the Studio of k8 Catlin Hi! I've been making lists this past week. Being a full-time artist with ADHD, it's sometimes a challenge for me to stay organized through a long project. I use Trello, and I'm always refining how it works best for me. Right now, all my projects are lists with each action being the next small step. It's taken me a bit to get all the projects split into small tasks, but this way it's not overwhelming. Do you have a great way to keep your projects...
The Weekly Weird From the Studio of k8 Catlin Hi! I'm having a major case of the squirrels. Those dang things are *everywhere* today, making things take too long. The Friday night watch party was a success! We watched, we laughed, we fed popcorn to Revan the doggo. I'll definitely be making the 3rd Fridays at 7:30pm Watch Party time from now on. I think we're going to watch a James Bond classic next time, but I'll do a poll first so we have options. My fave movie of all time is still Legend...
