Farmer & The Belle Comic

Our intern Carliegh created a short comic story about a young farmer named Penny who strives to keep her farm from the clutches of her greedy neighbor Bartemus Fink. When Fink cannot pay Penny to leave her farm he sends his daughter, Canella to Penny’s land to trap Penny once and for all.
Sadly, Finks evil plan back fires and he’s the own that gets caught in a trap of his own doing.

This quick read comic is funny and filled with twists & turns that will have anyone laughing throughout. Carlieghs perspective on Capitalism, LGBTQ love & living a humble lifestyle is refreshing.
Stayed tuned for more of their work!

A few weeks ago we teamed up with The Greater Seattle Bureau of Fearless Ideas to teach their youth about the process of screenprinting design! Each student chose their own color and received a 1 hour in-person walk through of what goes into designing a T-shirt.
Thank you BFI! It's always blast having youth join us on the art side!

A win for the youth and another win for the sloths! 🦥🦥🦥
