One year since the site launched. Four years since the studio began.

Honestly, it’s still hard to process. if you told that girl ten years ago that people would actually value her work, she wouldn’t have believed you. back then, she was just praying no one would call her art “trash” or call her a “freak.”

Ffacing strangers is still a nightmare. the anxiety never left. but right here, through this screen and through the melt of my solder, i’m screaming.

The support here tells me i was right to stay obsessed. stay real.

April is known to many as Autism Acceptance Month. For a long time, I did not even know I had autism. I just knew I was the broken kid sitting in the corner while everyone else knew exactly how to laugh, play, and fit in.

As Morrissey sang, every day is like Sunday, silent and grey. The world was a blur of static until we find the one thing that sets our soul on fire. If you feel like you do not belong in this world, build your own world. Make it sharp!! Make it yours!!

Today’s studio vibe: messy, packed, creative. 🛠️

Three artist friends came by with scrap leather and broken stained glass.

Put me in normal social settings, I’m lost. But here, no need small talk, our hands speak. I soldered a neat tin grid over sharp blood-red glass, while my friend fixed it onto a heavy leather cuff.

Order trying to cage chaos. Two forces, stitched together.

Yesterday, Orion brought me a new batch of tin alloy, saying this one allows for even longer spikes and higher hardness. He truly keeps helping me push the boundaries of soft soldering. His pursuit of perfection is just like that of an artist.
