It's no secret that I am terrible at remembering to make updates about any of the things that I'm doing, BUT headline: I do have new art and a new book on the way.

My RedBubble shop is full of almost 1000 designs, including Magical Realism portraits, Psychedelia, vintage-inspired designs, weird word art, and more, and I'm currently working on some new pieces that I'll be adding there soon (once they're finished). Remember that RedBubble is a place where you can buy any product you can think of, clothes, homegoods, stickers, big, dumb cups, but emblazoned with the artwork of indie artists like myself. I've got a lot of good stuff there, too. They're running many holiday deals currently, and I get a little money for every sale.

So far as books, I'm in the final editing phases of The Big, Bad Wolf, a horror/paranormal thriller that I've been trying to bring to life for the past 20ish years--it be like that with books. After finally getting it where I want it--I think, I'm getting through the final stages, including cover art and design, and estimate it'll be ready for the holiday season next year. It's been 20 years, a little longer won't hurt. More to come on that.

I have more Buster stuff in the pipeline, too, but that's a ways off, so I'll have more announcements about that stuff as it gets a little closer to completion and release. You can also keep up with me on my live weekly show, Social Contract, where my co-host and I talk about current events and with us both being weirdo entertainers, things are pretty much always weird, but we have a good time, talk to the audience, and just celebrated our first year anniversary. You can find us on Twitter, Twitch, YouTube, Bluesky, and Rumble.

Aaaand one last thing: I'm not currently selling soap at the moment, the production costs got too high, and I don't want to raise my prices. So with everything else going on I haven't had the time to fit it in right now anyway, but I hope to restructure, and bring it back soon.

Nicolette Olivier is an independent artist creating amazing designs for great products such as t-shirts, stickers, posters, and phone cases.

Hello Friends! Some of you may have noticed that I haven't been holding my regular youtube shows as of late. I'm excited to announce the reason for this is for the past few months, I've been working with the independent news outlet, Revolutionary Blackout Network, or RBN for short, cohosting a show called Social Contract. We hold solution-based discussions on social ills, and current events both domestic and international.

My cohost, Jared, is a talented musician and performer, who just released a new album, and often plays us out at the close of episodes. We worked together to create our show's theme, where he made the music, and I made the video.

We air live every Tuesday at 1pm est on YouTube and Twitter, where you can follow us, or RBN on either platform. The link below leads to our latest episode, taped yesterday, and you'll find a second link leading to our episode playlist, as well. We talk to our live viewers during the show, and always like to hear feedback and topic suggestions for shows. Hope to see you there!
