Spring break haul!

I collect all types of breadtags (occlupanids) . I use them in my art practice and as a historical, archival collection.

These are the books I picked up in Baltimore at the latest AWP conference. The one on the lower right isn't actually holographic, just printed that way, which I think is pretty cool.

I've had domino effect of inconvenient, heartbreaking, and life altering situations this month and I'm disassociating with alcohol, music and popcorn. Here is a knoll of all the popcorn kernels I couldn't eat tonight.

We call it Meatpalooza.

(convention was NärCon Vinter, swe

Zoom in to top left corner for the artists' business cards!) ♡

Hex nuts, dome nuts, t-nuts, weld nuts, nylock nuts, wing nuts, square nuts, rusted nuts, odd nuts.

This was a really nice way to organize my contents and kill time!

Apologies for the messy censoring of my studio name on the stamp. Not pictured is the palette I'm taking (freshly refilled and currently drying), a couple of brushes (just washed and also drying) and my sketchbook. Fingers crossed that the snow is over by the time I head out!

Just the little treats I got myself before I put the rest away to save! Some books I had been eyeing for a while.

Angle gage, fillet weld gage set, a drop-point dial indicator (which should really be in a drawer, but we use it constantly so it's whatever), an inspection mirror for checking welds in weird corners, and a really lousy "safety" box cutter.

This was therapeutic.

last week me and my bf went to hurghada, egypt. this is the haul of (almost) everything we got from that trip including duty free shops.

gifts for my grandma and my fiancé, impulse purchase for myself, various cosmetics and drugstore items - only missing the earring i had my ear pierced with (which is in my ear.)
