PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD

It’s time to protest where the Nazis see and hear us.

No more wasting time. D.C. is the pressure point.

Three swallows wondering wtf people are celebrating on July 4th. I got nothing, swallows.
A Violet-green Swallow tilts its head quizzically at the viewer. A Barn swallow likewise tilts its head quizzically at the viewer. Not to be outdone, a Tree swallow tilts its head quizzically at the viewer.

On the easel today. Also, way to go @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social !
Photo of a partially-finished oil painting on an easel. In the painting, a California Quail looks over his shoulder, perched on a gnarled grey branch covered in bright orange-and-yellow lichen. He is surrounded by pink blooming wild roses in front of a light turquoise sky.

Conflict is on the menu today, apparently.
A Calliope Hummingbird dive bombs a Yellow Warbler perched in a serviceberry bush. The Calliope has its back to the viewer but his gorget feathers are visibly spread out in a threatening fashion, reminiscent of the Demagorgon from Stranger Things. The defiant yellow warbler stares down the tiny hummingbird with a look that says “not today, asshole.” A group of full-sized fledgling Common Ravens are gathered on a hillside, full-sized but obviously young because of their blue eyes. They all face an adult Raven who is likewise turned to face them. The closest young Raven appears to be screaming in the adult’s face, while the adult leans backward away from its apoplectic hellspawn. This exasperated bird is clearly ready to be an empty nester. A blue-eyed fledgling Common Raven faces the viewer, hunched down and crouched as if to launch in their general direction. The Raven appears to be screaming. The Raven is kind of an asshole. A beautiful iridescent-blue-and-white Tree Swallow perches on a white fence post in a perfect side view to the camera. His wings and tail are raised as he lifts his head in what appears to be a blood-curdling scream. In this sacred moment, the Tree Swallow sends his final fuck out into the universe before taking off to catch some bugs for his littles.

My heart hurts for Joe Biden and his family. As a cancer widow, can confirm that cancer is a brutal, nasty, soulless piece of shit. But it’s nothing compared to the assholes celebrating/joking rn #fuckdonjr

I followed some strange noises in a natural area of my local city park, and found a pair of fledgling Common Ravens eating moss from trees and talking amongst themselves. First time to capture Ravens with blue eyes/pink beaks. 🖤
A young Common Raven, with blue-gray eyes and a partially pink beak, perches on an evergreen tree. The fledgling is grown to full size and can fly between trees, but as an adult the bird will have brown eyes and a completely black beak.

He’s back! Mr. Calliope flew in just this morning to land on his favorite shrub in a natural park in a deep blue neighborhood in a bluish-purple city in a red county in the east side of a blue state on the left coast. We missed you, buddy. 💕

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted artwork in process… feeling ever-so-slightly hopeful after yesterday tho, so here are a few enamels in the works.
A series of colorful birds depicted in enamel fired onto steel panels lined up on a shelf. All colors have been fired onto the metal and the images await black line work, the final firing in the process. Enamels are fired onto steel one color at a time for 2-5 minutes at 1350-1500° F. The birds from top to bottom are a Belted Kingfisher, a Black-billed Magpie, an American Crow, and a Western Bluebird. Four different feathers made of hammered copper await enamel colors. Once completed, the matching feathers will be attached with wire to the enameled panels with images of a Belted Kingfisher, a Black-billed Magpie, an American Crow, and a Western Bluebird.

@sirpaintalot.bsky.social Proudly wearing my new “The Punch” T (with dad’s Indy Stetson) at a HUGE Hands Off Rally in eastern Washington State today. You might get a few orders from here soon.

Cory Booker slammed Strom Thurmond’s racist ass into the dustbin of history. Susan Crawford kicked Musk’s racist millions to the curb in Wisconsin. Dems closed the gap in Florida. (And also, I got into Portland’s Art in the Pearl in two mediums.) Not bad for a Tuesday. House Sparrow just because.

Senator Cory Booker puts his hand on his heart in appreciation as the Senate applauds for him for having just broken Strom Thurmond's 24-hour-plus record for the longest speech in the US Senate.
