New Items in the Shop!
It’s May – YAY! So of course a I have a new Mother’s Day card this year!
As well as some old favorites for you to enjoy!
Another new card design is in the shop, and it’s one of my new favorites (No it doesn’t have to do with Mother’s Day, but I’m not going to tell you how to use it or who to send it to… )
Find it at Rachel Foss Design on ETSY!
I hope everyone is having sunny days and beautiful weather like we are! Whatever it’s like outside – I hope whatever you’re doing today is beautiful!
Much LOVE Monday: new art!
my goodness, it is April 9th and there’s pretty much a blizzard out in Chicago right now! What is going on!?!?!?!?!?
But GOOD news is with the crappy cold weather I’ve actually been staying home and making art!
I just finished this new painting i really like:
I’ll finally be opening the studio to the public at the end of this month and I can’t wait to show this new piece off to visitors!
New comic: what is it like falling in love
I have’t been drawing much the past year, but sometimes I have something I want to express – and share it with the world. Lately I have been feeling lonely and anxious, but there was a night where everything just felt perfect…
It’s good to be reminded sometimes that everything is ok.
In other news, today also happens to be the day that when I got my CCS acceptance letter 7 years ago :) Must be something about May 7th…
Mystery Comic…
K so… im going through papers and drawings and sketchbooks as I organize my home office, and I find this comic.
I can tell that it’s mine, and it’s not a bad looking comic but.. I have no memory of drawing it, what it’s about, when I made it… ?!?!? No clue 
🤷♀️
It’s kind of weird. What does mean? What was I thinking and feeling when I drew this? WHEN did I draw this?
I literally have no clue. Strange, huh?
Much Love Monday – Almost February
It’s Monday, and it’s almost February, and we currently going through the annual “January Thaw” here in Chicago, which means the worst is yet to come…
But for now, I will give me love and thoughts to my world. In Chicago there is a neighborhood called Humboldt Park – which houses one of my favorite places in the world… Humboldt Park :) Sadly Humboldt is also known for really terrible crime, which seems to have surged recently – and the reason it breaks my heart is because I love this place so much (and it’s not even my neighborhood!) I spent my Sunday in the area and just loved it and I can’t wait until spring and summer when the flowers will bloom, and ill pick new garden plants at Adams and Son and ride my bike to the Boathouse at the (Humboldt) Park. So this Monday, i give it to you Humboldt Park Chicago
Sally Ryan for The New York Times 9/23/08 Chicago, IL Division Street between Western and California avenues in Chicago’s Humboldt Park neighborhood is framed by large sculptures of the Puerto Rican flag. Author Saul Bellow grew up near the park, which figures into his writings.
