Another gem from the part of my file storage system that needs to be organized is this sticker sheet I did for @dartmouthmakers in 2019 (along with the poster art!). Applications are still open for 2026's Winter Market, so go apply!!!

I’m a watercolour artist located in NS, Canada! ✨She/They✨ 🐉 I’m a huge fantasy and D&D nerd, lgbtq+ 🏳️🌈 bi, I have two cats and too many health issues for my age
While searching (maybe in vain 😩 ) for an old sticker design I want to reprint in a new finish, I've been travelling through the 10+ year old art banks, haha. This was an old PreShrunk from a loooong time ago that I'd forgotten about, but still like. I think I'd like to do an updated version?
Throwback to this sweet little frog and cat tails design. I just love how the little froggies turned out! I'm working on my new online shop behind the scenes and telling myself that getting to revisit the photos is a treat, not a tedious task, lol. 😅 #stationery #frogpond #greenfrog
We are packing up the last bits of stock into the trailer and getting ready to hit the road for Fredericton! Animaritime starts tomorrow at 1pm, and you can find me at Booth V19 with all kinds of new art, plus some originals! Hope to see you there! 🌈 #Animaritime #showschedule #roadtrip #animecon
With Geekorium just finished, the next show is hot on its heels - next weekend, I'll be in Fredericton for Animaritime! 💕 I'll have all my usual magnets, stickers, keychains, and coasters, and a bunch more stationery this year, including bookmarks!
This weekend!!! Spring Geequinox had to be delayed, so now we get Geekorium just after the Summer Solstice! We're at Cole Harbour Place this year, where they have AC and tonnes of parking. I'll have my new bookmarks and stationary with me, as well as my usual nerdy fare like magnets and stickers!
WIP Wednesday - Hat Mouse joins the Stardew Valley series I've apparently started. 🤷 And I inked Stump #1 from the WIP pile on my desk. Still don't know what it was originally for, but I think it'll make a nice sticker and magnet! #WIP #inking #StardewValley #FairyHouse #schillustrations
This is a little garter snake I found in the poppy patch a while back - they were so small and a bit more brown than usual, so I watched for a while until they booked it into the blackberries. There are lots of little snakes around, but I rarely get to see them, they're so skittish!
Loki, product photo supurrvisor, quality control checking the flowers to make sure the green bits aren't actually treats for him (don't worry, I keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't eat things he shouldn't as he is very sweet and also very dumb). #sticker #snake #blackcat #productphotography
We'll be driving up to Cape Breton soon - come find me at CaperCon at Centre 200 in Booth B3 this weekend! Afaik, tickets are still available at the door. Friday 3pm-8pm Saturday 10am-7pm Sunday 10am-4pm #CaperCon #showschedule #roadtrip #schillustrations
This is a WIP of a TTRPG token I'm working on to help in those situations where you are typically splitting the party to achieve a goal that requires planning of some sort. This is my first test print and I'm pretty pleased with it, despite having spelled "previously" wrong 😅
My first show of the Summer Season (shhh, I know it's technically not summer until late June) and my one trip yearly to Cape Breton! As well as D&D tools and stationery, I'll be bringing my ornaments with me this time to give folks who don't travel to HRM a chance to see them!
Aaaand, my second market of the year is Halifax Crafters Spring Market! May 2nd-3rd at The Lighthouse Centre in Downtown Halifax! It's a great show to find something for Mother's Day (at least, that's what I'll be doing when I'm not at my table, haha). #DowntownHalifax #2026showschedule
My first market of the year will be the Dartmouth Makers Ikea Pop Up at the end of the month, on April 25-26th! As the name of the show implies, it will be at the Dartmouth Crossing IKEA (upstairs, next to the food court). I'm already busy as a beaver in the studio, so hope to see you there!
My show schedule for Spring 2026 is mostly in the HRM with a lovely trip up to Cape Breton at the end of May! 🥰 #showschedule #spring2026 #studiolife #schillustrations #witchystuff
This has the prettiest gold foil accents. All the herbs in the background are calming as this is a potion that brings restful sleep and good dreams! #moonpotion #goldfoilsticker #sleepingpotion #watercolour #sticker #schillustrations
The initiative tracker notepad, where you can record your triumphs, near misses, and outright follies. I am usually a pencil-person for D&D, but I use pen in this notepad 🤷 It's 4,25" x 5,5" and 50 pages. Unless you have a party of murder hobos, one pad should last you well beyond your campaign!
It doesn't come through in the sticker at all, but every book in the bookcase has gold paint along the spine and all the paintings on the wall are in gold frames. ☺️ It's a great time of year to get cozy in your favourite chair with a nice cup of tea and a good book! #acornhouse #mouse #cozy #acorn
To mix up the stickers a bit, a quick shot of my Galacticat greeting cards. I really should make a Galacticat 4 this year. I need a fluffy, long haired cat in this series! #galacticat #galaxycat #cats #space #spacecat #watercolour #watercolor #greetingcard #stationery #schillustrations
I have plans to make more stickers from Stardew Valley, I'm not sure if they'll be a sheet (so smaller stickers) or standalone diecut (3"x3" or so) like the one in the photo. My list is the Wizard's Tower, Community Centre, Pierre's, and the Travelling Merchant. Do you guys have any favourites?
I shared this art a billion times last year, but not as a sticker, so here we go. These are all photos for my new online shop that, barring a miracle, won't be ready before early summer. #frog #greenfrog #frogsticker #vinylsticker #watercolour #watercolor #schillustrations #littleguy
Snail and Mushrooms, sticker version. I want to make it into a sticky note design but I'm not entirely sure of what to do with the rest of the border space. 🤔 #snail #mushrooms #sticker #watercolour #watercolor #painting #amanitamuscaria #schillustrations
Another new thing that I'm excited about is this Writeable Book Tracker Bookmark! There are 14 spots to write in your titles, and one smaller spot for the year/months. It's on nice, sturdy paper, and is not laminated so you can easily write with a variety of pens.
This is one of my new designs this year - folks really responded well to cozy, cottagy, garden witchy art last year and I'd be lying if I said drawing little frogs and bundles of dried flowers wasn't my comfort subject, haha.
I lost this piece right after I finished sketching it out & found it again last week... after I had finished painting a redraw, haha. Since I'm really enjoying working on collections of little things lately I decided to ink it and I'll pick away at it while painting other things in the coming month.
Because product photography is my life lately, here's the cover (minus text) for the TTRPG-themed mini wholesale brochure I've started putting together. I may hold off on releasing it until the fall but in the meantime enjoy these maps I drew a while ago! #ttrpg #maps #handdrawnmaps
I just got a reorder of some stickers, and didn't realize they were being done with a matte laminate instead of the default glossy (it was part of a special and I missed that info in the description). I do really like how they look, though... so maybe there will be more matte stickers in 2026? 🤔
2025 was a good, but weird year. Happy 2026, friends! May you find more time to do the things that bring you joy this year! 💞
Don't forget, Crafters starts tomorrow at 5pm! I hope to see you there! #halifaxCrafters #showschedule #2025shows
