Making the thing! Kickstarter Initial Funding Goal Reached! And More....

 Happy 2022! 

Boy howdy, what a complete dumpster fire of a couple years its been. 

But I refuse to lament, and continue to push forward and make cool new things. 

Example A: 

I made an Enamel Pin late last year. Meet "FlapJack - Classic"! 


I conceptualized the design in an insomnia-laden stupor in February of 2021 and began working towards its realization. I obtained an ipad with procreate and taught myself how to turn my designs into workable files, something that my work has been severely lacking in for decades. 

I listed 50 on my ko-fi shop:

And they sold out in four days! 

So I launched a kickstarter:

And I just reached my initial funding goal with 12 days to spare. 



I am eternally grateful that I have been able to get myself here. 

I take nothing for granted, and I know that life is only going to get more and more difficult as the years drag on. 

So I'm going to try and make as many good things as I can. I am restocking my stickers, my art prints, and I have grand plans to expand my brand in 2023. So many projects, merch and more on the horizon. 

And I hope you all join me on the weird, wild journey. :) 

Thank you,
