Serendipity!

A long-time Instagram follower saw my childhood stuffed animal Bear that I used as a model for my custom plushie portraits, and recognized it as her Fluff! She grabbed a print and shared Fluff with it! ADORABLE!

The brilliant Amber Tamblyn – actress, director, author, poet, Substacker, and activist – takes a break from doing, like, *everything* to discuss how she's surviving life as an artist in the 21st century. This artist-on-artist conversation moved and inspired me in so many different ways.

The Lords of Montfoort, anonymous, c. 1400
Four Dutch knights kneel before the Virgin. The first three died in 1345 in the Battle of Warns against the Frisians; the fourth was badly wounded. Behind them stands Saint George, their patron saint. The coats of arms above them show that they belong to the De Rover family of Montfoort. The painting is a ‘commemorative panel’ to honour their memory.

Gift from the H. van der Lee Bequest, Woerden
