I'm always playing with conflicting traits and desires. I have bipolar disorder type II, so I can be a perfectionist while having zero patience for executing my perfectionism. I want creative furry, but the possibilities can be overwhelming.

Repeat patterns are rules that my creativity can function in. Rules are limitations that I can respond to without becoming overwhelmed. I spend hours designing patterns on the computer, spacing motifs just so, changing colors dozens of times. The digital world is my mental space.

Stamping is like functioning in the real world. Despite my plans, I have zero control once ink meets fabric. Every contact is different, and there's no going back once it happens. I can either accept the result or scrap the whole thing, but there's no room to fuss. It's a process limitation that pushes me through my tendency to obsess towards instant gratification. 

My subjects are humble and I want to simultaneously give them gravity and whimsy. I don't want to overcomplicate things, so I tell a little story. Humble subjects are important. Little stories are enough. They can become more if they want to, but there's no pressure. They can just be.
