Good morning friends. I’m having a cup of coffee and thinking about all the work we have to do in our country, work that has been in progress for a long time. As white people we must do better, speak up and stand in solidarity. I am raising my children in an anti-racist home and doing my best to keep learning how to be a better advocate and show support for people of color in my community and our country. #wemustdobetter #blacklivesmatter

Black lives matter. I stand in solidarity with my students, friends, and family. White students, friends, and family - there is work to be done. We must work together until we have dismantled institutional racism in this country. #blacklivesmatter

The Olympic National Forest is one of my favorite places to explore. The moss, the lichen, the smell - I could go on, but I won’t. When I’m in this beautiful place I feel so at peace. Just to sit and take it all in, listen to the sounds of the birds, and be inspired - makes it worth the drive. #jacquelynspeare #staircasenationalpark #olympicnationalpark @nationalparkservice #hoodsport #hikewithyourkids #artofnature

So today this pair of mid century occasional chairs walked into my life. 🤩 After a good cleaning they are looking fabulous! I can’t wait to sit and knit and drink coffee in them. ☕️ #jacquelynspeare #midcenturychair #scandinavianhome

I’ve got this chalk board in my studio and decided I need to put some inspirational quotes on it. ✨ I’m constantly thinking of ways to do good work. I don’t and won’t let gender roll expectations of the past or present day hold me back. ✨ What’s your favorite quote? ✨ Inspired by Stevie Knicks and the hand lettering work of Emily Watz Bode. ✨ #jacquelynspeare #wherewomencreate #handletteredquotes #inspo #chalkboard

I titled this print “Hope”. Sometimes life is really heavy. My younger brother has terminal brain cancer, that is hard for so many reasons. When I was thinking about this print I thought about just putting all the happy things together. Flowers, rainbows, and hearts. I wasn’t sure if that would work compositionally or even make sense. Sometimes you just need all the happy things mixed together to get you through. I love how it turned out. 💛 . . . . . #jacquelynspeare #noonefightsalone #braincancerawareness #handmade #modernmaker #supportthemaker #buyfolk #sharinghandmadejoy #handmadeisbest #slowliving #capturemycraft #creativityfound #calledtobecreative #livecreatively #happycreativelife #pnwartist #creativemind #livecreatively #artist #printmaking #greif #processinggriefthroughart #blockprinted #womenprintmakers #handcraftedhome #slowcraft #peopleofprint #printspotters #abeautifullife #etsylove @westsoundprintmakers @etsy @etsysuccess @artyprintmaking @uppercasemag @im_printed @porridgepapers @flexcut_tools @cranfieldcolours @blickartmaterials

Once upon a time I thought I would just print everything in black. Don’t get me wrong - I love contrast. I’m glad I’m taking the plunge and mixing up the ink! This afternoon I printed up this tiny edition (only 8!) of this print in this delightful ochre color. #jacquelynspeare #handmade #modernmaker #supportthemaker #buyfolk #sharinghandmadejoy #handmadeisbest #slowliving #capturemycraft #creativityfound #calledtobecreative #livecreatively #happycreativelife #pnwartist #creativemind #livecreatively #bremerton #artist #wherewomencreate #printmama #im_printed

Hot off the press! I went to the garden to try to get the truest photo of this gorgeous rose colored ink. This printed is titled “hope”. And is an edition of 10! #jacquelynspeare #handmade #modernmaker #supportthemaker #buyfolk #sharinghandmadejoy #handmadeisbest #slowliving #capturemycraft #creativityfound #calledtobecreative #livecreatively #happycreativelife #pnwartist #creativemind #livecreatively #bremerton #artist #wherewomencreate #printmama @peopleofprint @cranfieldcolours @porridgepapers

I’m printing up a small edition of this block in a dusty rose color. This is really similar to my card design but bigger and a little different. I’m going to print it in another color too - which color should it be?? #jacquelynspeare #inkprintrepeat #printmaking #womeninprint #livingonabrayer #get_imprinted #linocutprint #handmade #printmama #slowcraft #dustyrose #nurseryinspo #hope #love

Guess what I dropped off at the @kitsapfoodcoop today! All five of my recent card designs are in stock and available with your grocery purchase! Exciting detail: these card sleeves are compostable! Yay for zero waste packaging! I have been so impressed with how the coop quickly adapted to have a pick up only grocery system. (I’m not doing to lie - I miss going in so much!) My favorite thing lately is the oak leaf lettuce mix! It is soooooooo good and from a local farm! The A2 cards are $5 and the 4-Bar (smaller) size are $4. #jacquelynspeare #snailmail #kitsapcommunityfoodcoop #scandinaviandesign #midcenturymoderndesign #handmadecards #slowcraft #shopsmall #supportlocal #localfoodforall

Sometimes when I’m stressed and I think I just need to rest - I really need to create. I have always been a maker. Making fills my cup. Some things I like to do are print, draw, knit, bead, and embroider. How about you!? What do you like to make? #jacquelynspeare #makersgonnamake #norestforthecreative #idorestdontworry #makecreateinspire

I finished carving this block Monday night. It was my birthday and I had the best zoom chat with one of my best friends - stayed up past midnight! I’m looking forward to printing this on some dreamy handmade paper. I squeeze in time to make art when I should probably be sleeping. It’s hard to print with young kids underfoot. It seems making comes in batches where I have the extra energy to burn the candle at both ends. Then I get too tired and rest up - and then I’m back at it. The mama maker life, there’s never enough time. Art fills my heart. It must be done. And the mothering must be done too. 💛 #jacquelynspeare #slowcraft #peopleofprint #printstagram #mamasgonnamake #wip #handcarved #scandinavianstyle #rainbow #flexcuttools #bremertonartist
