Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Bee's Knees Activities!

This site is the side project of artist, illustrator, and maker extraordinaire, Cate Anevski. (That's me!) I decided to create this site to share my techniques and discoveries in the world of art and beyond.

Currently, this is very much a work in progress. In the future, be on the lookout for all sorts of things to pop up here, from craft store reviews to long-winded essays about my philosophies on art.

In the meantime, enjoy!
