Painting made with walnut ink with a little added colored pencil. A pensive woman, shown in profile, sits on a garden bench with her legs crossed. She wears a long striped dress and appears vaguely Victorian. The indistinct background suggests tree branches.
Three hand-drawn comic panels. 1) Image: a tiny piece from Bosch’s “The Garden of Earthly Delights.” Text: HEY DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE HIERONYMOUS BOSCH BUTT MUSIC 2) Image: a figure points at the Hell panel of Bosch’s painting. Text: In 2013 a student noticed what looked like musical notation in “The Garden of Earthly Delights” on the butt of a figure in hell 3) Image: the same figure playing an electric keyboard, then opening their laptop to a screen that screams “BUTT MUSIC?!” The figure says “well shit” Text: She translated it into notes, posted to Tumblr and the internet did its thing

Scribbly doodles of myself drawing in bed and working from home while sick.
Photo of a room illuminated only by the harsh flash of the camera. Clothes and books are piled on a bed. A purple rolly suitcase covered in stickers waits at the foot of the bed. The air is stuffy. But in the distance is the grumble of what I can only hope is an AEP repair truck
A journal page covered in marker, pencil, and ink drawings and writings.
A journal page with three drawings depicting how I felt with COVID-19 on three different days.
A black Canson spiral-bound sketchbook. Its cover is decorated with Posca paint pens, glued-on cutouts of a horse and a Richard Scarry school bus, bird stickers, and three fantastic stickers of a raccoon bard, archer, and wizard, all outfitted magnificently in trash.
Photo of a hand cradling one small, spherical red berry next to a fairly vigorous currant plant.

30 second video of a tiny, extremely spherical fledgling black-capped chickadee perched in a magnolia tree. It calls for its parents, then does some hops and grooms itself briefly. It still has still downy fuzzies on its head.
The battered cover of a children’s magazine from January 1911. The title reads “St. Nicholas Illustrated Magazine for Boys and Girls.” The illustration is of a little girl in a fancy, vaguely Medieval red/gold gown reading an enormous tome.
An Eastern cottontail rabbit relaxing in a sunny patch of grass between a garage and a wooden fence. It looks alert but comfortable
Mirror selfie. A white woman with brown shaggy hair (me) is wearing a homemade Chinese-inspired short sleeve blue jacket over a navy tank top with a sword pendant and loose orange pants tucked into blue-gray Japanese work boots. In the background is some DBZ art.

Two line-drawings. On the left: a slim, muscular, androgynous person with a high ponytail and almond eyes. They’re wearing pajamas and slippers. Text around them reads “LORD ANGELIS in pajamas. They/them. Elf! Romantic lead. So dreamy. Exterminates bad monsters for a living. Has a huge family but still feels lonely. Likes basket weaving. Seems like a tsundere, isn’t.” On the right: a stockier, masculine person with floppy hair and light stubble. He is wearing a fantastic hat, vest, full-sleeved shirt, striped pants, and boots. Text around him reads “GER TOPOLSKI in traditional Polish garb. He/him. Human! Kyla’s fiance. Experienced through-hiker. IT guy at some tech startup. Love language is FOOD. An absolute cinnamon roll who must be protected at all costs.”

A hand-drawn parody of the Cap’n Crunch “Oops! All Berries” logo, reading “Oops! AI Psychosis.” Captain Crunch, clutching a phone that says “Kill your crew, Cap’n,” appears to be screaming in terror. His eyes are big spirals, like a hypnotized cartoon character.
A somewhat intricate cut-paper illustration. In the center of the image is a silhouette of a man at a podium. Smaller figures to either side cheer and wave flags. Around the man are four circles and a heart. The circles depict soldiers marching until they become flag-covered coffins while bombers fly overhead, NSA agents listening to phone calls, a crowd watching a book-burning, and a cop with a dog assaulting a hoodie-wearing figure. In the heart is the United States, cut away from Canada and Mexico but radiating *something* at the world from either coast. The image is bordered at the top and bottom by skulls, awareness ribbons, and a TV that says “OBEY” at the top and bottom; hearts and dollar signs border the sides. Each corner has a security camera.

Before the procedure. I’m wearing a hospital gown and making a Muppet face.

In colored pencil: a square frame shows a close-up of a serious-looking gray and white Furby with blue eyes. A flame-like speech bubble coming from the Furby says (in all caps), “I BIND AND FORBID YOU FROM HARMING ANYONE— YOUR POWER IS REDUCED TO ASHES”
Ink drawing of a looong cartoony snake with black bands.
A pillow with a whole bunch of appliqué of a Christmas living room scene

A Cooper’s or sharp-sinned hawk perched on the automated arm at the entrance of a parking garage. All the garage doors are shut. The bird looks somewhat peeved.

Photo of a small felted keychain in the shape of the head of Derpy Tiger from K-pop Demon Hunters
Various pieces of brightly colored fleece laid out on a cutting mat. It’s clearly meant to be the tiger from K-pop Demon Hunters, but the artist is at a loss at how to sew it together. She did not plan ahead and got too excited about cutting fabric, as usual.
