Finally saw it on the big screen. All I have to say is, the power of the bicycle is a beautiful thing.

Panel two of seven (each of them 4 x 12 feet) that I am working on for a local arts fundraiser. Sometimes in life you feel like you bit off more than you can chew. Solution? Drink more coffee and get back to work. #papercut #largeformat #whatthehelldidigetmyselfinto

Food nourishes, particularly in time of need. My friend @paslejour is in Mexico City right now volunteering with Cocoveg (cooperativa de cocina vegetariana & vegana), a feminist vegan coop. In the aftermath of the earthquake, the cooperative is making and distributing meals both in Mexico City as well as the affected areas of Oaxaca and Puebla. Selling this papercut today and will donate all the proceeds to Cocoveg. Measure about 5"x7". $75 - DM me if you are interested. Update: SOLD. .

"Plastic Wardrobe," papercut, 2017. In 1980, 5.3 million tons of polyester were produced annually. By 2025, it’s projected to be upwards of 90.5 million tons. Today, our wardrobes are literally made of plastic, much our fashion made using an extractive, limited resource: oil. These wardrobes come at a cost. Every time we was a synthetic item of clothing, millions of tiny plastic particles are released into the ocean, and ultimately, they end up in our food chain. By 2050, plastic pollution could outweigh fish in the ocean. All of these things are connected; we are literally wearing and eating oil. If you're interested in the topic, I have a piece looking at plastics, clothing and food today over on the @foodandfibersproject.
