Personally I think this looks incredibly polished, and it's all thanks to the Queen of Cardboard.

Though I have addressed my rant of social media making art daunting and truly stunting creativity at times, it is still the home of everyone's favorite tips and tricks. One such tip is for use with corrugated cardboard.

The smallest things can alter the course of history. Minecraft Dungeons may have sparked one of those moments for me.

I never knew spray-foam insulation was so fun... but I had always assumed it was.

First off, check out my sister's awesome work on instagram @k.steely_the_artist! I admire her ability to actually follow prompts and not procrastinate things like #inktober.

Oooh, this was a fun one. I moved to a new school my 7th grade year. What better way to spend the first holiday season than making origami frogs and selling them to fund a shoebox for Samaritan's Purse?

The visit to the Art Institute of Chicago was a good one. And not because of the art.
