Jules and Rocky say hi!

I’m here to convince you to check out my shop using closeups of pieces that are available right now!

Voted early!!

NEW TEA TOWEL ALERT!!!! i based the art on my "a wearable dungeon" enamel pin set and @printinkling.bsky.social printed them!!!!!! snag just the tea towel OR the map AND PINS at ariellemilstein.com/wearable-dungeon

Do I always forget how long it takes to paint these little @devenrue.com islands? Yes. But I think that’s because I love them so much!

A little extra light on a dreary day!

I have layer art pieces, painted little books of holding, painted bookshelf window inserts, and keychains!

In bad news- the storm knocked out power out long enough to ruin everything in my fridge. In good news- the freezer is fine and I found some powdered milk for my coffee. Off to throw away a bunch of food 😣 But here’s a kitten!

Currently photographing all the unique pieces that didn’t sell at recent events to put up on the shop!

i have made some additional mushroom cuppies to go with the dice treeeeee (turns out i have more than 13 designs 😅)

This weekend is your LAST CHANCE* Head over to @arielleishere.bsky.social site, pick up some treasures, and get warm fuzzies supporting TWO anti-AI indie artists! There's even a matching pin set if you're fancy! *okay she'll have some at PAXU but she sells out of stuff and like why risk it kwim?

I made it through two event weekends in a row, and cleaned my studio!! To celebrate, here’s the kittens with their new favorite toys!

Ready for a not rainy day! Opened my pre release before everything opens, got some fun stuff!!

Well it’s only raining a little so far! Crossing my fingers for no thunderstorms!

How often is too often to check the rain forecast for the weekend? Asking for me, who has a vendor event outside this weekend. 😭😂

Sitting in my warm back room with the kittens waiting to hear how much fixing my AC is going to cost. Tomorrow I have to get a tire replaced on my car. And now they’re calling for storms for my outdoor event this weekend. Somebody wanna throw me some good news?

4 more days until my biggest outdoor event of the year. Somebody take the rain out of the forecast!!!

Making a bunch of painted inserts for my bookshelf windows for Boozy Book Fest in KC in a few weeks!

Paintings from yesterday are sealed and drying, time for some more!

Local fall events!

I need everyone to know that I witness this squirrel steal a little rubber duck off my deck and run away with it. 😂

Time to get to work!

I had a dream that I met Brennan Lee Mulligan and Izzy Roland. They were so nice and they bought one of my Spire lamps and showed it to people. Then I got a ton of orders and was able to pay off things and it was wonderful. That was a really good dream.

I have my biggest fall events in a month! Which means if you had your eye on any of my painted pieces, you should claim them, otherwise they’re coming with me to the events!!
