boyfriend and i were reading about the history of dating sims games last night and learned about this game called Girl's Garden. It's a 1980s game where you gather flowers to give to boy.

Screenshot of a 1980s came called Girl's Garden, a game where you play as a girl gathering flowers to give to a boy to win his affection. The screenshot shows a pixel based game; at the center of the image there is a girl sprite handing a bouquet to a boy sprite. They are in front of a house that has the texr 'welcome' written on it. Bordering the house is a grid of red flowers and at the top of the image there is a horizon line with mountains and blue sky

Not really being an artist lately, been doing other very neighborly things in MN. But! Art + community are important, and we could all use some of it right now. ❤️ Inviting you: I will be drawing in Monster Drawing Rally this weekend on Saturday 2/21 from 2-5PM at Midway Contemporary Art in MPLS ✨️

Event flyer for Midway Contemporary Arts Monster Drawing Rally.

The image shows a woodcut of people gathered around a table looking at a book; the people look like they are dressed in historical costumes. The image is rendered in a way that people are stylized; they look like playful characters.

The Monster Drawing Rally is a fundraiser for Midway Contemporary Art that features 60+ artists. Artists draw for an hour-long drawing round, and all artworks produced are immediately put up for sale for $35 each. All proceeds go to supporting Midway and its programs.

Haven't touched my small sketchbook in months and i am trying to get back into casual non-client drawing. Nice to get 30 mins in this morning and to not think that hard about it.

Sketchbook spread with drawings by Allegra Lockstadt. The image shows a sketchbook with 2 sparse drawings on each page. On the left page, is a figure with their eyes closed and they look like they are stretching or posing like a ballerina. There is a blue looping scribble line where the ballerina's tutu would be. On the right page, there is a drawing of a femme person, showing their upper torso and the person is shown in the middle of flipping their hair over there shoulder. There is a blue looping scribble line beneath the figure which mirrors the tutu scribble line on the opposite page.

This property is so cool and imaginative. Since this entire home feels like a portal to another world, we wanted to create a mural that feels like a spiral portal to a dreamy, starry sky for this attic gathering space and playroom. ✨🌙

Installation process; Photo of mural by Allegra Lockstadt in a private home in Plymouth, MN. The photo shows the artist on a ladder painting a mural on an angled ceiling. The mural features a starry, swirling galaxy that has a swirl of stars, moons, suns, and symbols. Throughout the mural, there are also wispy gold lines spiraling to the center. There is text at the bottom of the mural that reads ‘this room remembers what Earth forgot’

Product mocking up & documentation is an ongoing learning process. I know you can do all of this digitally w/o ever creating a physical object, but I still love setting up a little shoot. S/O's forever to Rik Sferra for providing the MCAD community with decades of lighting demos. 💛

Photo of product documentation shoot for product mock ups showing wrapped gifts and stationery greeting cards ‘Golden Hour’ by Allegra Lockstadt. The photo shows a small photo shoot set up in a living room porch. The set up area has a white sweep and white bounce card, and a light used to light the documentation subject. The living room has windows each wall and shows a tree line outside; inside there are plants and a small table.

August felt like an entire month of Sundays 🌇 Looking forward to this end-of-summer season and start of fall. This is a personal project that I have been wanting to undertake for years, and I finally brought it together this past month: Golden Hour Wrapping Paper and Stationery.

Full image of ‘Golden Hour’ patterned image by Allegra Lockstadt. This patterned image evokes the nostalgia of summer and celebrates the decadent colours of golden hour sunsets. The imagery depicts nature native to North America as well as intimate everyday summer scenes and moments of people that the artist witnessed while traveling in 2025 in Minnesota, California, Kentucky, Michigan, and Ontario, Canada.

The image has a colour palette that evokes sunsets and warmth: gold, yellow and orange, with a few pops of sage green, light lavender, and a warm chocolate brown. There are watercolour washes around the image, and the image has a layering of elements that feels reminiscent of Allegra Lockstadt’s sketchbooks.

Imagery in the work consists of: a couple shopping at a farmers market, Golden raspberries on a vine with a silhouette of a butterfly hovering near by, a hand covered in bandaids, a monarch butterfly resting on someone’s hand, a line drawing of a tree, a hand holding 2 ice cream cones, a plastic lawn chair, various drawings of milkweed and milkweed flowers, a parent and child playing together, a bird perched on a branch, a femme person smelling a flower, and a set of hands making a heart shape.

Various spot illustrations pulled from ‘Golden Hour’ by Allegra Lockstadt; these spot images were used to make stationary greeting cards. The image shows 4 card covers:

1. A monarch silhouette hovering over a hand with a Monarch butterfly perched on it
2. A femme person holding a flower and smelling it with their eyes closed
3. A hand holding 2 ice cream cones with a flower shape behind them
4. A parent and child playing together

Product mock up showing wrapped gifts and stationery greeting cards, created from ‘Golden Hour’ by Allegra Lockstadt. The image shows a few wrapped gifts at the top and 2 greeting cards resting on envelopes at the bottom.
