Amanda Pycz's Artifact Tour by Amanda Pycz

Embroidery

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:19:07 UTC

I took up embroidery during the pandemic. I don't have as much time as I'd like to work on it but as my kids grow I hope to get back into it.

Sewing pillows

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:21:18 UTC

I made these for friends and family. They match the aesthetic in my house so I sewed one for myself and when my friends saw it they wanted one too.

Baking Sourdough

Like many people, sourdough was a pandemic hobby of mine. I still keep it up to this day because I take pride in making my own bread, keeping my diet as homemade as I can (most of the time)

Thomas and Theodore

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:27:24 UTC

These are my 14 month old twins Theodore and Thomas. They are so sweet and silly. This is them dancing to their favorite song right now.

Best Friend and Colleague Noelle

I met Noelle when I got hired at Esqueda in Santa Ana. I interviewed for the job she got but I scored a job teaching English and social science there and we have been besties ever since. I was honored to be in her wedding party this past summer.

Hiking and propelling in Utah

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:32:03 UTC

This was one of my favorite trips I ever got to experience - hiking and propelling in Utah with my husband. So challenging and so beautiful.

More Theodore and Thomas - and Dad

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:36:40 UTC

My whole world. I couldn't ask for a better part eat and friend, my husband Graham. And the babies,of course.

Favorite contemporary artist - Ana Laura

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:38:45 UTC

Her art and philosophy touches me deeply. I really recommend checking her art out.

Over the Garden Wall vinyl

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:41:29 UTC

I love animation and I love collecting vinyl records. This is my Over the Garden Wall soundtrack, a must listen for fall.

Kurt Vonnegut Tattoo

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:45:29 UTC

My favorite author is Kurt Vonnegut and this is my second (and favorite) of my Vonnegut themed tattoos. This is the cover for the book Cat's Cradle.

John Prine

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:48:56 UTC

John Prine is one of my favorite artists - he was funny and able to blend folk/country with a sober look at the world. A real artist.

Teacups Tattoo

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:55:29 UTC

My mother passed during COVID and I wanted to get a tattoo to honor her. We had these beautiful teacups growing up and my mom would always put together little tea parties for us. We each had our own cup, my sister, my mom and I. They are memorialized here, along with her handwriting from a note she left in my lunch as a kid.

Adventure Time

mandabee92 — 2024-08-27 03:57:49 UTC

I love cartoons, my favorite being Adventure Time. It is so special and goofy. Here is an episode (11 minutes) if you have time for a little silly fun.
