coyote skull art

I’ve been in the process of cleaning my coyote skull since I posted this beautifully witchy photoshoot last autumn. And by “in the process,” I mean mainly letting mother nature do her reliable work, because I stay away from these things until they’re clean enough to not make me wanna gag while in close proximity to them (I’m just a girl with a weird hobby, I’m not a girl with a stomach of steel).

Well, the time finally came last month, after the long, cold winter began to thaw off, and I retrieved this perfect specimen from my…um…specimen bucket.

Yeah, okay, I hear it. And I know how it sounds.

But listen, this was a donation from my grampa who found a dead coyote. So really, I’m just doing the respectable work of appreciating the good lawd’s creatures, even after their death.

the gold accents are truly the chef’s kiss ✨

deer skull art

It finally happened: I painted my deer skull, and ‼spoiler alert‼ it came out better than I imagined it would.

floral mirror

I painted this mirror white in April of 2023, but I got the mirror from my step-gramma…well before that.

When I first got it, it was dark and moody and rustic — the total opposite of my vibe. My room is painted a light creamy/almond color, my valances are a sheer lace, and the picture frames and many of my plant pots are white. If I could walk into my room and feel like I was living in a cloud, that would be ideal, but since I’m not quite there (I only get the afternoon light through my windows), I do the best I can to brighten it in every way possible.

I love brightness, and airiness, and open space.
