Test printing this pika made for kind of a fun reveal! Pikas will gather bouquets of wildflowers to dry and cache for the winter lean months. Pikas are an indicator species for climate change- American Pikas cannot tolerate temperatures over 75°F (23°C).

Trying to post again, and get used to filming my process. I really tried to ignore the camera being on, hence my hair. #printmaking

it really doesn’t matter if someone is in america illegally or not. who cares, grow up

My model came to visit the other day! #printmaking

I've been carving lots of little letters lately, but this is my first print prompt Monday made on #printpromptmonday! Made this #text tincture bottle label around the hobo jungle in the sun for my friend.

Writer's block(prints) #printmaking

Some frogs drying by the woodstove. #linocut #cards

A #linocut of my friend's dog, based on a vintage illustration. If you zoom in, you can read what I think she would write, if she could write.

Imho, it's somewhere between cringeworthy and passe to say "happy monday" but I really mean it when I say happy #printpromptmonday! Hope you are having a nature-filled #spring, this week's theme. #linocut #printmaking

Non-fun Star Wars fact: Not a long time ago (especially if you are a redwood tree), the giant redwoods of the forest moon Endor (Ewok village) were clearcut mere months after filming. These ancient trees were destroyed in an instant for the Empire's insidious logging operations. #linocut #starwars

Lots of beginner mistakes but I'm pretty pleased with myself! New market displays to be stained. A beautiful spring day for learning how to work wood.

After getting the precise cuts just right, jigsaw block printing is a really simple and satisfying way to print in multi-color. #printmaking #otter

It's #portrait day here on #printpromptmonday - I made these self-portrait and favorite guy fan art stamps more than a few years ago, based on film photographs taken by our friend Learning. #linocut #printmaking

Just remembered these linocut postcards I made for a mail exchange a few years ago, the theme was retro. Fits #printpromptmonday theme today #earth

Made a cute case for the doomscrolling robot #crafting #diy

I love it when people take my "40 Ways to Fight Fascists" guide and do cool shit with it! Recently @stitch-theory.bsky.social took the list and turned it into a mini-zine: it’s one piece of paper which folds up, origami-style. Please print, fold & distro! spencersunshine.com/2025/04/14/40minizine

Stopped at a thrift store to look for suitable cotton to print on, which there wasn't much. But I found the mustard yellow rotary phone of my dreams for 3 bucks. I will update you if it works.

Papilio rutulus, western tiger swallowtail I was trying to practice some symmetry on this block print.

Some fabric patches from this winter! #printmaking

these wee coyote and badger #friends I'm posting for #printpromptmonday will hopefully be incorporated into a much larger print. Occasionally these species will team up hunting.

If we descend to the depths of fascism and your black pilled the whole way down you suffer twice - and worse yet you are annoying to me personally.

The Hegseth debacle is just going to be just the start of many. Trump’s appointees are such a fucking clown show of corrupt nepotism, I doubt there’s more than three who can even do a halfway competent job.
