Haven’t shared any of my cards in a minute. Someone at my temp job needed one for a wedding & asked me to make it ☺️ I really do love photography, but these bring me so much joy.

The work in progress, the work, & the final product packaged & ready to go!

A handmade card with various embellishments and pressed flowers, arranged on but not adhered to, several pieces of patterned cardstock which rests on a green craft mat. The finished handmade wedding card leans against a light green curtain on a window sill. The card has a theme of burgundy, pink, & champagne colored and patterned pieces of cardstock with various pressed florals and embellishments that give the card a vintage romantic vibe. The finished card in clear plastic wrapping for protection

Occasionally we get tiny Goldcrests in the garden, hunting for insects amongst the evergreens. They’re resident in Britain, but some Goldcrests cross the North Sea to escape the harsher continental winters; people used to believe they rode on the backs of migrating Woodcocks. (watercolour)

You climb a mountain, then you see a bigger mountain & it dawns on you that you're likely not going to conquer all the mountains, there will always be more challenges. So you sit in sweet surrender & allow a moment of acceptance knowing tomorrow you climb again

From the top of a mountain looking outward across the sea to San Juan Island, WA and like a beacon, a snow covered Mt. Baker. Tall robust evergreens greet the foreground in celebration of the hiker who reaches the top of the mountain....grateful for their enthusiasm..it was a good hike!

You'd never guess this innocent looking tiny ball of fluff can take down prey twice it's size... until you look it in the eyes.

For the #Januarty prompt #insect. I made this back in December of 2024 when I was just starting to explore #watercolors. It has since found a happy new home with a fellow Bluesky #artist. #One #Butterfly cropped into four.

#ArtYear #BlueSkyArtShow
Rectangular watercolor painting with a teal-blue, textured background filled with flowing white wavy lines. Four butterflies appear partially cropped around the edges of the composition—two at the top and two at the bottom—so their wings feel like they’re drifting into the frame. The butterflies are painted in layered blues, greens, black, and cream with detailed, patterned wings outlined in dark ink, creating a stained-glass effect against the fluid, watery background.

2/ my job took us to northern Utah (near Park City) where we lived for 10 yrs. But I was diagnosed w/a genetic heart failure condition called HCM. Had to get out of the altitude. We moved to Maine in 2020, sea level has helped me so much, I will never leave! Love capturing it thru my lens.

It's the end of a work day and traffic flows mostly west along Ontario Street in Chicago. January 2025.

#Scape #RiverNorth #OntarioStreet #Chicago #photography #UrbanGaze #sunset
A view of Ontario Street, in the River North neighborhood of Chicago, from the 26th floor of a nearby building. It's sundown time, and the warm light of the sun is visible toward the west horizon. The rest of the sky is overcast. Vehicle traffic is seen on the street below, with bright red tail lights. Two tall buildings, about 40 stories high, are seen at mid distance, dark and with illuminated windows.

We got a teensy bit of snow yesterday…

#backyardviews #wildlife #inthecountry #scape #BWFri #classicmono #artyear
A snow covered yard is seen with three blurred images of deer running across the field from the right towards the left. A snowy creek bank divides the yard from another field across the way with a black wood fence also visible in the distance. Partial tree trunks and a small wood bench are seen behind the deer.
