We are who we are, & our people are always our people. There is much between the lines & words of this poem. There is unflinching honesty. There are strong women throughout the poem, culminating in that brilliant final line. ‘My People’ by Kim Moore, from The Art of Falling

Day 2 of #ArtAdventCalendar: A frog that’s not mad, just disappointed.

#watercolour #watercolor #frog
A large, abstract frog in shades of orange and yellow with a pink green and yellow gradient belly. Behind it is a background of blues and greens that somewhat resembles northern lights. The frog isn’t mad, just disappointed.

Trees. They’re cool. (I’m living in the future: I unthinkingly signed with ‘26 instead of ‘25.)

#Markers #Monochrome #B&W
Five abstract trees in a group. Sort of Zendoodle-ish: the trunks are solid black, the leaves are white circles with a black background in rounded groups surrounding the upper trunks. Ground is signified by parallel broken lines.

Once upon a time, I gentled and started wild burros into domestic life. I enjoyed making portraits of them. The portraits really captured their character. Since there are no rules for #ArtAdventCalendar, I give you my portrait of Melon. #EastCoastKin #Photography

Black and white portrait of a wild burro named Melon.

Day 2 - #ArtAdventCalendar
How about some recycling art. I made small notelets and sketchbooks from not so nice gelliplate prints and paper from the bin, added stamps, metallic color, drawings etc. Useful little gifts!

The image shows a close-up of a cattle's head in black and white. The photograph is sharply focused on the animal's face, particularly its eyes, nose and ears. The cattle looks rather grumpy.

Ich hab den Artikel gelesen und die SZ musste da gar nichts zuspitzen, Weimer ist, wie Claudius Seidl vor kurzem schon gesagt hat, ein Schaumschläger – und dass Merz ihn für einen Intellektuellen hält, ist natürlich ein ziemliches Problem im Stadtbild.

Zugang zum „ganz normalen feministischen Magazin“ @apothekenumschau.bsky.social ist so wichtig!
„Apotheken Umschau“: Von wegen „Rentner-Bravo“
Das Magazin hat sich modernisiert, schreibt über Gendern und Body-Shaming. Denn auch Diskriminierung sei ein gesundheitliches Thema.
