  • Monster me.
  • The homestead
  • Alternate hobbies

For as long as I can remember, I've been scribbling away at one scrap of paper or another, making illustrations, drawings, paintings and even murals for everyone I know. This year, after the birth of my second daughter, I decided I wanted to stay home with my kids. I set up this shop and listed a few of my favorite items, and the response was amazing!
Now, I spend my evenings creating portraits, pet portraits and feminist and fandom illustrations. My largest inspirations are my daughters, and the empowering works I create are so very often with them in mind.
Thank you for supporting a tiny dream, that, for me, has always been a huge part of my life. I never thought it could be anything more. But I'm so glad I get to be here, creating for you! This is my way of reaching out from the far north of Canada to the rest of the world, and I'm so grateful to everyone who stops by!

Frequently asked questions
Custom and personalized orders

I do portraits, pet portraits and custom illustrations! Feel free to message me with any questions about pricing! (I will require a good quality photo to work from )

Why don't I have a tracking number?

In order to keep shipping costs low, I am not able to provide buyers with a tracking number. Sadly, this means, that once the item has been shipped, it's whereabouts are out of my control. If you have any issues or find that your item does not arrive, please contact me, and I will see what I can do!

Can I purchase priority shipping/tracking number?

Absolutely! Feel free to message me at any time and I can list a priority shipping option for you, for a moderate fee.

How do you keep your prints safe in transit?

Items are packaged with a chipboard backer, within a cellophane envelope to protect the artwork. I often add an extra slip of chipboard to help keep my envelopes stable and I mark all items with DO NOT BEND labels. I am not responsible for careless damage done by postal workers, despite my efforts.

Why do some items ship separately?

Prints and stickers ship directly from Me, in Canada. Mugs, T-shirts , totes ship from the warehouse where they are printed, in Los Angeles ✌❤
