I’m good with my first thing here in 2026 being the reposting of a poem.

Have just seen this, I think for the first time -

Do I know someone with a good understanding of physics, who is willing to answer a couple of specific questions about the three-body problem, and/or point me to a good explainer on the topic? (It’s for a painting; I’d like to work some equations and/or text into the piece but in a non-stupid way.)

A symbol of abundance and good luck for the year ahead!

Today I reminded myself why I left web design, and how quickly CSS can send your brain from zero to murderous rage. 💀

In other news, I’m rethinking this Shopify page I was trying to make prettier.

They're going to *throw out* one-of-a-kind NASA archives?!

Not even a year since the Inauguration & we're already at the 2nd-time-as-farce version of the burning of the Library of Alexandria.

Sitting a stewing in frustration isn't nearly as cathartic as just designing a poster. Let's see how often I remember that in 2026.

This needs to get into the fanart communities stat: it looks like Shopify is the connection to this Amazon "Buy For Me" debacle, which could really hurt a lot of folks who sell fan works on their personal site. Type your company name into Amazon search right away (and maybe update your sites, too)
Oh shit, so if you sell fanart on your Shopify you NEED to email Amazon NOW! @monkeyminion.com posted who they reached out to here bsky.app/profile/monk...

Because this makes you searchable ON AMAZON by big companies doing copyright/trademark sweeps, you could have your shop shut down or worse.
Yup. Those fox stickers are sold out, but also, I'd much rather be the one deciding what gets seen. This is a weird cross selection.

Okay. Help me, friends. Besides the new painting I’d have to send a progress photo of to enter, which of the following #SpaceArt should I submit to TAPS 2026? (Or suggest another one. The top two are already framed.)
December 30, 2025 at 5:56 PM
Attn space artists, there’s still time to submit!*

*I had grand plans to finish a piece in time to enter but, yaknow, it’s the 30th and I haven’t even unwrapped the cradled board I bought so prolly not submitting this year. 😑
Space artists: don’t forget to submit your work to The Art of Planetary Science exhibition by December 31st! The event is held in Tucson. Anyone can submit—all levels & types of human-made art. I’ll be submitting and attending again. 🐡🔭🧪

This funerary wreath is made of everlasting flowers (Helichrysum stoechas) and is more than 1,700 years old!
It was found in a tomb of the #Roman period in Hawara/#Egypt and has survived due to Egypt's dry climate.
Dating 2nd/3rd c. AD.

On display at British Museum

I love the textures in this image so much! I painted it a few years ago, a more abstract-looking piece. #watercolor #SciArt #SpaceArt

Realizing my art vs artist this year would be mostly graphic design and very little painting. No space art at all. 😭

I’m proud of the design work I’ve done for our @rckhnd.com brand. But I haven’t painted in months. Just started unburying my art desk. And that fills me with shame. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Make life 'bear'able again!

'Snowflake' is a handmade raku fired ceramic polar bear. A little gay bear, made by a not so little gay bear who also happens to be a potter.

When it's cold outside he will warm your heart ❄️🐻‍❄️

I blew off social media lately, and for that I apologize. But I can’t let #ArtAdventCalendar pass without posting at least ONCE! So here’s something different, a photo of a lone surfer, three weeks ago during the King Tides at Cannon Beach #Oregon, just two days before all the flooding hit.
