“Opening” from my collection At the Center.
While I was working on this one, I felt a kind of trust settle in.
Less holding, more allowing.
It felt like I was following something outward, rather than trying to direct it.
At the Center is now live.
A collection of seven hand-burned mandalas I’ve been slowly building over the past couple months.
Each piece is one of a kind, burned by hand on natural wood.

This season has asked me to slow down, to build with intention, and return to what feels steady.
From that space, “At the Center” took shape as seven mandalas built with repetition and focus.
This is a detail from “Still.”
I’ve been building something slowly over the past couple months.
Instead of making one-off pieces, I committed to a full collection of seven mandalas. I’ve been calling it At the Center.
Five are finished. Two are still unfolding.
There’s something grounding about staying with repetition and symmetry while everything else in life changes.
Opening one commission slot for February.
Custom wood-burned or digital artwork. I keep commissions limited so each piece can be approached thoughtfully.

Finding out Tolkien and Bitcoin share a birthday feels… significant.
One warned us about centralized power through myth.
The other challenges it through code.
Curious.
A look at everything I created in December. These hand-burned pieces were made as gifts, and several of them challenged me in the best way. Each one sharpened my skills and boosted my confidence to take on more complex designs.
I’m feeling deeply inspired, with ideas already brewing for 2026. January is going to be funn.
