A lot of you know me from my work in web dev. A couple of years ago, I realized I was good at getting things done, but not good at slowing down enough to really experience life. Painting became my way of changing that.
That idea turned into Tiny Observations, a monthly art mail club built around one small moment worth noticing.
If you'd like to follow or support my next chapter of my career, I'd love to have you as a subscriber.
Global but 1st edition limited to 25!

Friends!
❤️ I love supporting our tech (& art) communities through community organizing as well as writing and speaking on tech topics.
HOWEVER, I'm a freelancer so I don't get paid 💸 to do any of this! I'm looking to get sponsors to help make this more sustainable.
Help me hit my goal!
🗓️ Monthly support is best but I'm also happy to have one-time donations!
Pick your preferred sponsorship provider...
