Why all the cows?

Because I love them.

Do you sell your art anywhere in stores or in person?

Yes! I have prints and stickers that I rotate regularly at Ki Coffee Shop in downtown Beaverton, OR. Aside from art by local and small artists, you can get supreme lattes there. It’s also small and family owned! Otherwise, I do vend regularly at assorted comic cons in Oregon state, usually in Portland, Salem, Redmond, and Medford. The best way to stay tuned is by following me on instagram!

I see art in your gallery but not in your shop. How can I buy it?

Depending on the art piece, my art may be available as a sticker, charm, print, or something else! If you want something specific, feel free to shoot me a message with the title of the art and what format you’re interested in, and we can see about setting up an order! I can’t promise all art will be available in all formats, due to costs and minimum order quantities, but I would be happy to consider it!

What social media are you most active on?

I post usually three times a week on instagram, and I do my best to stream every Sunday evening on twitch. My IG posts get crossposted to facebook, but I’m not actually otherwise active on there. Likewise, a lot of IG content gets uploaded to youtube as well, and I have a goal of uploading one longer form video every month. I’m trying to be better at updating tumblr, because for all of its flaws, it’s still a good venue for enjoying media and interacting with people. But mostly you can find me kicking around instagram.

How do you set your prices?

Learning to price one’s own work is a journey in and of itself. I am the sole employee; designer, producer, marketing. I partner with print shops to manufacture physical items like stickers, prints, charms, and notebooks, and I am subject to their costs as well as my own. When you’re buying a product, you’re not just buying the raw materials, but the time and effort expended to create it. The sketch, the digitization, the refining, the print prep, the ink, the packaging, the shipping. Hours, days, weeks of work. But then I have to consider just what a person is buying and how they’ll be using it in their life, and predict a reasonable cost while still rewarding myself for that time and the prices I had to pay for production. It’s an organic process that’s ever developing.

Something to remember when supporting small creators and businesses, is that they generally operate with high costs and low profit margins, if something seems expensive, take a moment to think of all the steps taken to create that piece, and remember that artists want you to buy their product, so they’re offering a price that they think is fair to you and themselves. Thank you for supporting independent creators!
