ABOUT THIS LISTING
This listing is for a 24-page illustrated zine featuring ten original proverbs accompanied by ten intricate and whimsical surreal watercolor paintings paired with embellished gouache mats to create a kind of elaborate border. The zine is typeset in a font created from my handwriting, and all its illustrations were painted with traditional media (watercolor on cotton paper and gouache on cotton fiber matboard) and then scanned for digitization. (Some of the original illustrations are shown in the listing photos as props, but the original paintings are not included with this listing, only the printed chapbook.) The zine measures 8.5 x 8.5 inches and is professionally-printed on 100lb satin paper. It ships to you directly from my small home studio in Southeastern Pennsylvania.

Seen in the listing photos are illustrations for proverbs "Be As Brave As You Can," "Know What You Know," "Know What You Don't," and "Care For What Counts On You."

Please Note: This zine contains only the ten "Maxims" illustrations accompanied by their respective proverbs. It does not include the textual reflections that originally accompanied these paintings when they were first presented to Patreon supporters in 2025.

Lightweight, Non-Greasy & Perfect for Daily Sun Protection
I absolutely loved the Ultra Sheer Invisible Gel Face Sunscreen! It absorbs so quickly into the skin and leaves no greasy or heavy feeling behind. The lightweight gel texture feels comfortable throughout the day, and I love how it layers well under makeup. Most importantly, it makes me feel protected from the sun while keeping my skin looking fresh and smooth. Definitely a sunscreen I’ll keep reaching for!

Matte comfortable facial sunscreen
This is a great sunscreen! The texture is kind of odd at first but it dries down nicely and is the only facial sunscreen I have found that is NOT shiny or greasy looking! Most facial sunscreens will advertise no white cast and being "dewy," but I find them to make my face so shiny and greasy looking, especially because I also use a moisturizer. This one is great and does not add any shine to my face.

clear and light sunscreen
Used this sunscreen and it works really well. It goes on clear and spreads easily. Not sticky or oily at all, very comfortable on the skin. Feels light and good for daily use.

Matte and definitely worth purchasing
Love it. It’s definitely matte, but doesn’t dry me out. I put it on with a light moisturizer, and have no issues with pilling. It feels more like a light oil when applying, but that feeling goes away in seconds. I like that it’s also water resistant. I get oily really easily, so I’ve been looking for an affordable matte sunscreen, and this seems to be working really well for me. There’s a sunscreen smell on application, but it’s not too overwhelming and goes away quickly. Overall, 10/10 would definitely recommend, and kinda wish I could gatekeep it.

Best sunscreen ever
Best sunscreen! Extremely smooth, it leaves your skin completely matte. It does not feel like sunscreen, it feels like a high end primer. It’s a gel not even a cream. I use it as my primer, since I have to put sunscreen on anyway, it serves as my primer before make up. I’ve always struggled with finding a decent sunscreen for my face that leaves no cast or hurts my eyes but this one is the best one I’ve ever tried. Matte, smooth, gel, does not hurt eyes, primer for make up. Amazing! And great value for the money.
