Pride, painting, and plot twists | The Misfit Diaries: Ch.9
Pride month in Copenhagen, which brought up All The Feelings for me - the joyful, the complicated, and the ones I'm still untangling. Plus a queer art show, a gloriously boundary-fucking burlesque, some ridiculously exciting (and terrifying) news, and a return to painting after a break.
I overdid it - on purpose | The Misfit Diaries: Ch.8
Is it worth deliberately overworking in order to buy an easier life later? A 30-day experiment in burning hot on purpose, and the real cost of pushing a creative practice and a chronically ill body to its limits.
What goes up, must come down | The Misfit Diaries: Ch.7
The comedown after a social extravaganza, and the slow climb back up. A month of quiet studio days, my summer solstice ritual, Sankt Hans Fest, a drag show and the cats (as always). Essential elements in the gentle art of tending oneself back to life.
It’s a Pisces moon thing
In this video I head to the beach to gather seaweed, shells, and inspiration for my latest Friends of the Haus zine - a love letter to summer memories by the water, made from old sketchbook pages, hand drawn lettering, and a lot of feelings (it's my Pisces moon!).
Finding my creative spark again | The Misfit Diaries: Ch.6
This is the story of how May brought new sparks of creativity into my life, through a fairly random series of incidents - also: thanks to the infamous Cat Distribution System WE UNEXPECTEDLY GOT CATS!
My brain is a compost heap
Inspiration is rarely a single lightbulb moment. It's more like a compost heap - a giant steaming pile of disparate things slowly breaking down until they become something new. This is a tour of my particular inspiration compost heap.
Cutting up my art to make a zine for my Friends
Ever wondered what goes into making a zine? Today I'm showing you my entire process for creating a digital zine for Friends of The Haus - from designing the layout, to cutting up my own artwork, to assembling the final piece.
A day in the Haus of Cats | The Misfit Diaries: Ch.5
Spend a day in the Haus with me: filming, zine-making, a fabulous outfit. And a conversation with my best friend that sends me down a rabbit hole about my relationship with rules - turns out this anti-authoritarian punk is secretly dying to be told what to do 🤣.
I created a monster! (and by monster I mean puppet)
A while back, Jennifer and I spent an afternoon making puppets in my studio. No plan, no tutorial, just a bunch of scrap materials and a great big dollop of FAFO attitude. This is what that looked like.
I don’t do goals. I do BINGO.
Bingo, bango, bongo, bitches! We’re setting not-goals for 2026.
Gold boots, a book proof, and a very sexy magazine spread

Send Nudes: behind the scenes of a daunting photoshoot
What does it mean to deliberately put your 45-year-old body into the world when culture has decided women your age should be fading quietly into the background? What's the difference between being looked at and choosing to be seen? What does it mean to be visible?
Exhibition leavings, a sparkling floor, and a big black machine
