Life in Technicolor

Writer, sewist, podcaster, musician, crafter, model, creative type of all kinds. This blog is all about what I'm making right now - it'll probably mostly be my jewelry making for now, but I'll occasionally be posting about my other artsy endeavors as well!

New photoset posting now on my spicy sites!

I'm exploring my dommy side a bit in this set - it's a side of myself I've been discovering more and more lately, and I'm excited to share it with all of you! 😘

Butterfly puppet photo dump! 🦋💐

Absolutely loved working with this crew at Beyond Wonderland at the Gorge ✨

This weekend! I'll be back at Cal Anderson for another Cutie Fest 💖 If you haven't had a chance to check out my Pride jewelry yet - don't worry, I'll have tons of gay stuff available all year round. So stop by! 🌈

I will also be vending somewhere on 6th Ave in Tacoma on Saturday, but I haven't been given my exact placement yet. I'll make another post about that as soon as I know where you can find me! ✨

Gonna make a lil video about this soon, but I just wanted to say OMG getting to be a butterfly at Beyond Wonderland PNW was such a crazy fun experience!!! Despite wind and rain and sore muscles, I loved every second of it 🦋💖 I met so many cool people, and had a blast being a puppeteer, which I had never done before. But I just love love love getting to dress up and be a part of a cool experience for people, no matter what form that takes 🥰

I know I've been quiet on socials lately, but I've still been out here doing my thing! Including making new 🔥 content for my premium sites 😘

While I'm buried in half-finished Pride inventory for the rest of the week, here are a few chonky necklaces that sold recently. Would you wear something like these? I personally love making (and wearing) big chunky jewelry like this 🤩 And the nice thing about resin is that it's lightweight, so even big statement pieces like this don't get too heavy!

[leighcartist]

Pride season here I come!!! I love doing Pride events 🤩

My first one this year is Pride In The Park this Saturday June 6th in Volunteer Park! I had a blast vending there last year, and I'm looking forward to making this year even better! 💖🌈

[leighcartist]

Reminder I have spicy sites! This summery swim-themed set is posting now 💦🌺✨

[leighcartist]

A peek inside my craft studio! 👀 I've been hard at work making lots of Pride inventory for my upcoming markets in June, and that's gonna be kicking into overdrive for the next two weeks!! I'm so excited for you all to see what I've been cooking up 🌈

More flags in more designs, and more styles of jewelry!! I'm truly doing my best to have something for everyone this gay szn 🤩

💖 Rebrand alert!! 💖

My jewelry business has been renamed! Leigh C Artist has become Cosmic Kitten. It'll be a slow process of ordering my new banner, getting through my old business cards, changing social media, etc....but I wanted to make the announcement now because I'm just so excited!! 🤩

Thank you Rae and @tearlessrainart for the amazing new logo, I can't wait to have her plastered all over!!

[leighcartist]

Love when I get to sell a piece that I've been holding onto for a while 🧡 Check out my online store, maybe you'll fall in love with an older piece too!

writers and artists everywhere all the time

incredibly fun surprise logo commission for @leighcartist's online shop

(the shop can be found here, go check it out she makes super cute colorful jewelry/accessories)

I've never really attempted this kind of lisa frank-adjacent style before but I had so much fun painting it that I might try to do more like this. it was completely freehanded via about ten thousand layers though I imagine there are probably easier ways to do it lol.

[leighcartist]

Sneaky peek of the rebrand that's in the works for my jewelry stuff! Thank you so much @tearlessrainart for working on this with me, it came out so good!!!!! 💖

What do you guys think I should name her? 🤔

[leighcartist]

Just gonna keep posting items that sold until I actually get around to updating my online shop 🤣
