I'm ending the year with some shows at a familiar place, but they're doing some events a bit differently this time around. There's a lot of history at the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant in general, and they're tackling a lot with their Holiday Craft Market Days throughout December.

There's so much to show you all, and I'll keep my social medias updated with any more news.In the meantime, my thanks to each and every one of you, and happily be!

To my friends, family, and support here on tumblr, I have delightful news to share! I've been invited to showcase my work at RAW Detroit presents: PREMIERE, a one-night event in Detroit, Michigan at the St. Andrew's Hall on January 16th, 2020. Doors open to ticket holders at 7:00pm and I have to note that the event is rated for those 18 years old or older.   I'm classified as a Visual Artisan Showcase, and I plan to display my Happily Hummingbee greeting cards for purchase in addition to as many of my recent paintings and illustrations as I am able to fit in the allotted space. If you're interested in showing your support by being a guest of mine at this event, I encourage you to purchase a ticket through this link below:

    https://rawartists.com/happilyhummingbee I'm excited for this opportunity as it's a perfect step to starting the next year off on the right foot, and I hope you see that as well. As this is my first showcase in a local event like this, if there are any updates, I’ll surely let them be known. In the meantime, my thanks to each and every one of you, and happily be!

...Once I'm arsed enough to give this blog some sick tags and layouts.

sublethalic is an upcoming indie multimuse blog, delving into pretty faces with less-than-pretty circumstances surrounding them. I love original characters, so expect to see a lot of them. They will be fandomless.

Finally, an announcement! I'm glad to share that I'll be participating in TWO artsy fairs this year at the The Ford Piquette Avenue Plant, in Detroit, Michigan!

I plan to display my Happily Hummingbee greeting cards, prints, and original framed paintings for purchase.
