Absence

Hey my lovely followers!

I just wanted to apologize for my lack of posting on this platform. I've been so active on my other platforms, I sort of stopped posting here for a bit. The main reason being that ever since Tumblr decided to no longer allow 'adult content' on this platform, nearly all of my posts get automatically flagged because of this now. What really annoys me about this is that I dont show any genitalia or even nipples on my page, yet any pictures showing skin get flagged. It's super frustrating when you work hard on your content and when you arent violating any rules. This was what truly took the fun out of this platform for me, and led to a lack in posting my work. I'm hoping to get back to using Tumblr and post a lot of backlogged content/my art. Just wanted to let you all know what was up 🖤

If I ever drop off here just know I'm always up over on

A scraggly western red cedar tree I made recently for Hana @hana_is_trying 🌲 Cedar trees have a vast array of looks, sometimes they are super fluffy lookin and full of thick dense branches covered in pine needles, and some are more sparce. They can be hard to tell what they are amongst the many species of pine in WA, but their bark is what makes them easily identifiable - long peelable strands of red mossy amazingness, my most favorite of tree species 🌲🌳 it's pretty amazing how many of them I've seen in my life living and being born & raised in Washington and doing tons of trips to the Olympic National Forest 🌲☔ Thank you so much Hana, it was so good to chat and meet you and give you this piece 💕 until we meet again 🥂 . Space to tattoo Thursday, Friday, & Saturday this week (29th, 30th, & 1st) . Contact me to book for November & December 🕸🍂❄ Books for 2019 opening soon after November ends 🎈🌟🎉 .
