A dahlia reflected in a water drop. This is the first time I've caught a water drop reflection with my camera.

A colourful, rainbowey pour of watercolours rises into two waves, one taller than the other, imitating a mother looking down on her child. The background is deep purple.

Watercolour pour art in Procreate. I had a hard time painting anything I liked until I let go of my perfectionist hang-ups and felt my way through.

I drew a chibi ghost for Halloween. This lil guy loves music. It's his heart and soul.

I didn't like any of my abstract paintings tonight save for this digital charcoal. It's one of those nights when my mind can speak in colours, but not shapes.

"The Future Arrives"

I started this and just kept going, not knowing quite where it was going to take me.

Digital artwork. A girl with blonde hair and a blue cat, turned away from the viewer, watch an eclectic sky of colourful paterns.

These white flowers are very tiny. Each blossom is 1/4 the size of my thumbnail or smaller. Thank you, extension tubes.

I went to work on a public holiday by mistake 🤦‍♀️. I have now shamefully returned home 😂 On the up side, I have one more day to art around. Here's a #haiku I wrote:

forget-me-not
the old tombstone's
broken smile

I took this photo #inside. It was storming outside, but I wanted to photograph the roses I'd brought home. Me: 1. Sky: 0.

A peach-coloured rose against a black background. Intentional camera movement makes the rose look like it has a ghostly veil and is moving back into the darkness.

Well well well. There's another storm outside. I retreated indoors and tried some intentional camera movement with a rose bouquet.

Sometimes I feel like painting, so I just do.

P.S. Love the new cumulus brush in Procreate!

"Peek-a-boo"

This waterdrop, brilliant with light, looks like it's playing games with me in the garden. 📸

To be a photographer is to be a waterdrop. A speck upon the earth, holding the whole world inside it.

Tried the new extension tubes in the garden today. Snapped some dandelion seeds before they blew away in the wind.

Your #arid promises I never kept. But in the glow of autumn, I found the real you. Perched at the tip of a leaf. Trembling. I caressed you like a rainstorm. Now your promises spring green, like mint. Like solar dreams. Like emerald forever.
