trying to put all of my favorite reads on hold...or maybe just putting my work life on hold to read.

Inspired by vintage library cards, overdue stacks, and the kind of reading life that tends to spread into every room eventually.

Each piece begins on raw canvas with layered watercolor washes, ink details, stitching, and bold lettering—built to feel a little archival, a little worn in, and very familiar to people who grew up believing a library card counted as independence.

No two are exactly alike.
Each one carries its own variations in color, edges, texture, and paint.

Made on fabric instead of paper, the layered construction gives the piece more structure and dimension while still keeping the softness of textile work.

Designed to hang easily on a wall, lean on a shelf, or disappear naturally into a stack of books.
