dreaming of springtime 🌿✨
Photo of a sketchbook on a desk surrounded by paint tubes and brushes. The sketchbook is open, displaying a painting made with gouache. The painting shows a natural landscape with a big tree in springtime on a sunny day. There are white and yellow wildflowers growing in the grass below the tree.

anyone saying that art and the act of practicing/learning it is ableist (and thus AI should be ok for disabled people to use) can catch and instant block. not even worth arguing this. it's fucking not. you're just looking for a reason to justify your AI use to generate slop

What can one do when the timeline sucks but bake cookies. These are cinnamon roll-ups from Sarah Kieffer’s 100 Cookies. These are a shortbread style cookie. You can glaze them but they are sweet enough. So I’m not going to. #bakesky #baking

Sulphur-crested Cockatoo 🪶 #BirdArt #SciArt

I started working on this drawing half a year ago as a part of the #BirdWhisperer challenge, but I got very busy around that time and only finished it recently. It is far too late for the official posting date, but I am glad I completed this one!

One of my larger flower watercolours, done without body colour and featuring my most painted green glass jug (which is very old and leaking slightly from the handle. I'll get it to make a guest appearance in a new painting this year.
#watercolour #flowers #botanical
Watercolour from a few decades ago, with a mixture of garden flowers plus some decorative gourds. I don't remember who bought this one but it was quite large, probably on an imperial sheet of watercolour paper.

Here’s the lembas bread I’m baking for my son for his birthday. He is a LOTR nerd (as am I), and he also got a hardcover edition of The Hobbit per his request. It’s great to share interests with all my kids, and each one overlaps my interests in some way. #baking #bakesky #LOTR
Six squares of lembas reason a cooking rack.

“Encounter in the Old Park”

Available as a giclée art print in my Etsy shop!

Find it here:
theartofrobhusberg.etsy.com/listing/7817...
“Encounter in the Old Park” giclée art print Two cats have unexpectedly come across each other in an old English park quite late at night. They're startled to say the least. Do they know each other? Will the one play it safe and keep walking? Is territory involved? Will they become good pals? Much to ponder here. Within all the atmospheric lamplight, It's clearly a very old park in late November or winter - all bare trees, dried leaves and shriveled vines. The original drawing was rendered in black ballpoint pen.

Here’s the cake I made for my son’s birthday after we all had a piece. The recipe is Lemonade Cake from King Arthur Baking. Delicious! #bakesky #baking

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)

A photo of this watercolour in situ with the vase of flowers (which was rotated so doesn't show the side viewed in the painting). I'll have a look for a clear photo of just the painting on other hard drives because I can't find one at the moment. Sold to a friend. #watercolour #botanical

looking at a painting from a new angle is like walking in one direction, turning around to walk back & finding a whole new forest

Just one more pastel flower painting for now. A carnation and freesia painting with a couple of anenomes and some ivy plus a shell that has been in several artworks. This one dates from the millenium and is on someone else's wall. See alt txt.
#pastel #flowers #millenium
I never know whether to call a work in pastel a painting or a drawing. I suppose it's a painting if it has broad areas of colour and a drawing if it is mainly linear (I tend to use Conté sticks for line work). I have used pastel since I was a child so that's a long time!

Studio is reasonably clean after I tidied away all the things from holiday cardmaking. I was not inspired before because we had a long cold snap and it was pretty frigid down here. Ready to make some art now though. 🎨
