WOODEN PINS IN SHOP!
Ok, so it wasn’t a total surprise, I was expecting these pins to show up at some point. I did order them just over a month ago. I showed off the new backing cards I had made for these already.
BUT! IT WAS ALL NEW. The company I ordered from was new to me-
Tattoo lines & an artist’s time.- tattoo permissions post.
If you've followed me for any amount of time, it's apparent I love tattoo culture and a lot of my designs could be easy to transfer to a tattoo.

Prioritised my “spoons” and time as best as I could.
Art block after rejection! You don't say.
So when I recieved my rejection letter yesterday, I felt a bit blindsided. As we all do. We all hope to get in, and when the rejection letters come, we question our sanity. Not all do this, but I certainly do. How can I improve my application process, is the art good enough yet, etc.

I refuse, REFUSE, to let anyone cloud my opinion of it in the slightest.
Not everything is meant to be shared.
