After a 7 year pause from adding content to this journal, I am back. Specifically to write about The Royal Loyals, a collaborative passion project that has also has been on a major pause!

Monika and I started The Royal Loyals over 10 years ago, as a collaborative exploration that brought together jewelry and painting. But as life happened, The Royal Loyals work did not. Then! In 2024 we put in our best efforts to bring it back, creating 8 collections throughout the year. Below is a glance at a few of those groups.

We had such a great time creating this work and are so excited for our 2025 chapter. Stay tuned!
