Hi,

I’m Rina —artist, gouache gremlin, and unapologetic notebook hoarder. I paint tiny landscapes, bind messy journals, and test far too many fountain pens at once.

This is a chaotic corner of the internet where:

• ACEOs are emotional topography

• Journals are stitched spells

• Ink stains are a personality trait

I share art experiments, behind-the-scenes rambles, and occasional “how-I-did-this-with-too-much-coffee” posts.
