If you live in the Bay Area and want to organize, please get at me. We need to fight injustice with our feet in the streets and our words in the air. I’d like to get a group of people together, preferably POC/female/immigrant/LGBTQ/differently-abled creatives to discuss how we can move forward together in this new climate and raise awareness about important issues through our art. Hit me up if interested. I’d like to meet once a week or once a month, depending on everyone’s schedules. Let’s fight injustice at every corner.

A while back I did custom lettering for a tattoo design for my friend Shaun who lives with Cystic Fibrosis. “65 Roses” is how children with Cystic Fibrosis pronounce their disease. The lettering is based on Shaun’s monogram signature, SDP, which appears at the end of the graphic. Love you, bro! 💪

It’s been a while, but I’m back at it! I’ll be sharing Edugifs each month, illustrating projects my students and I are currently making in the classroom. This month’s Edugif is inspired by the Earth science inquiry project my students are currently working on. Making crystals was a lot of fun, and gave my students a chance to observe how Earth’s systems can change over time.
Crystals are more than just beautiful jewels. A crystal is really just a solid with molecules arranged in an ordered, repeating pattern. Experimenting with crystallization can be as simple as a salty solution. A basic solution is as easy as two parts boiling water mixed with 1.5 parts sodium borate (AKA Borax). Once you’ve got your solution, you can play around with pipe cleaners to make different shapes for the crystals to form on.
