What NIH funding cuts mean for universities : NPR | "The easy way to think about it is that the institutions and the government have been splitting roughly 50/50 the costs of building the research enterprise in the U.S." since World War 2

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

A few days behind but I’m posting day 22 of #amonthinpaper what I listen to while I work. I love audiobooks and podcasts. I’m a big history nerd.

Women who experience pregnancy loss shouldn’t have to go to the web archives to find their federal rights. reproductiverights.gov is a resource that should be available to all women. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2RNSGox/

The question of the day for #amonthinpaper is scalpel or scissors? I started with scissors and started using blades in 2020. I love my Sean Morton 11p blades. Has to have the p for point. It’s how I get all those tiny details. Pic of my handy sharps container.

Making great progress on this piece. It’s going faster than last time. I will be keeping it for myself to use for cyanotypes. #artinprogress #wip #paperartist #cuttingpaper

Pretty excited about the amount of progress I’ve made on this piece. I think muscle memory is playing a part in it. #wip #papercuttingart #papercuting #art

I’ve had people ask me what does one do with a piece of my art? You can do many things with it. I’ve created cyanotype using them. I do sell them at in person events. You can also message me if you’re interested in something. 😘

Am I crazy probably. I am recutting one of the hardest pieces I’ve ever done. Every bit of this is cut by hand using a scalpel blade.
