When my son was a baby we would go on a daily walk in the woods. Every morning, Lando (the neighbourhood cat who adopted us) would wait outside the house to join us. It became our little tradition.
Those moments felt so special, I decided to turn them into a painting 💚

My second collograph print failed so I decided to work on the matrix by cutting out holes for highlights. Hoping next week I get a decent print

I know it’s crazy out there an all that, but you still should be working on an artistic pursuit and/or making music. You’ll be glad you did.

When everything feels uncertain, I look to the rhythms of the land. They teach me to trust what I can’t yet see.
Pause for a moment today. Notice what’s quietly growing around you, and within you.

Finished @naomialderman.bsky.social "Don’t Burn Anyone At The Stake Today" which is a short, but meaningful book about the information crisis we find ourselves living in.
"Never talk about a culture-war topic with anyone who only wants to talk to you about that topic." Words to live by, esp online.
