New Laser Cut Felt Shapes

If you follow on social media, you've probably noticed we've started offering laser cut felt shapes! But wait, most of those aren't beasts at all! That's true, but there a lot of things in the world and we imagine our Little Beast enjoy seasonal decorating as much as we do =) We made our first set of felt shapes a bit before Halloween, to cheer up our space and ourselves. Being at home almost 100% of the time due to the pandemic starts to get you down after a while. It was surprising how much adding a couple of seasonal felt banners...

So here's hoping!

Art Fighting Hate

For the past week Jason has been making silly little doodles and I've been painting them. They're quick. They're fun and they're good practice. These little doodle paintings have also been a nice and much needed source of relief from the onslaught of horrible news these days.

We want to do something to help while we make cute little doodles, so we're participating in #artfightinghate (started by Jeff Courturier) And doing our silly doodles as commissions for people who donate at least $25 to a charity that is fighting against hate.
