This is Dewey. I drew him. Want a custom portrait of your dog (okay, any pet. I’d draw a cat or an iguana, too). Want that hand drawn portrait on a t-shirt? Get in touch. I love drawing (and wearing drawings of) doggies! Woof!

Did you know I make custom name stickers? These are great for water bottles/tumblers, notebooks, laptops—whatever you can dream!

Anyone know why this repetition is happening sitewide on all name and date fields? All other fields are okay. #squarespace @SquarespaceHelp

One of my favorite things about designing under the same style guide for years is how to make it feel fresh and new while still keeping the style and “following (most of) the rules”. Last year this invitation was super minimal with a very limited color p… https://t.co/BWaobEhhrt

Forms are fun. I love tweaking a form year to year to make it just a little more clear and fit the updated style of the packet.
