I'm warm and dry. Self-swathed in overlapping layers of cloth and memory. The puppy keeps licking my face as if to dry all the salt-tinged rain that somehow comes through the closed windows. He thinks the thunder is making me cry. He'll never know how to mourn what never was. #SenseWrds Prompt 147

Just the same, if I don't get a pizza after this, assume I've gone feral and ran into the desert.

I'm at a symposium without any of my coworkers for the first time in the ten years I've been in this industry.

I'm alone in a sea of strangers.

I'm okay.

(quietly astounded)

Weightless (revised/revisited) 18x24” acrylic on recycled wood panel. Available. I reworked this one based on things I learned on the painting after it. :-)

Hindsight is a sharp thing that cuts both ways. Time to take advantage of the hiatus to trim my tarot stable. There are decks that I will never use again, and some that won't even be handed off but will be delivered straight to the bin.

When you realise that in addition to being a misogynist and terrible scholar, Jo-jo Campbell was a Nazi sympathiser*, the Hero's Journey and all that monomyth bullshit lands differently.

[*I've never understood this distinction. A Nazi sympathiser is a Nazi in my book.]

"There's... er..." My new assistant bookseller faltered.

Over by the window, an open book hovered. As I looked, a page turned.

I picked up my hag stone and peered through it.

"Just a ghost. That's a relief."

"What else..."

"Imps, devils, people with invisibility spells. The last are worst."

A very friendly dog (red cloud kelpie), her bottom square with age, is sprawled on a picnic rug as numerous small humans compete to see Who Can Pat Her Best.
Friendly Dog is in her element, a doggy smile on her face.

Each leaf made a sharp image against the smothered white lawn, just as each sentence cut a sharp truth against the well crafted lie that you had smothered me with. Light comes for us both. I will let winter's delights keep me cool so truth may do as it does best. #SenseWrds Prompt 146

We walk as companions! The popular fox and crow adventuring strip is now available as a print as requested.

Sorry that took me forever to draw. I'm so slow these days when it comes to big illustrations.

Taking a break to make some lunch.

Hoping to do a resource run today. Who knew I ate that many damn potatoes in a month 😅

If you are looking to grab a couple baubles for yourself or to give as gifts, please consider taking a look at my shop.
Sales & donos are a big help!

I don’t normally do this but I want these two pieces to find good homes as I start cleaning up my current studio to move into my home studio in the coming month or so. Both are on sale for 24 hours only. Originally 1800.00c letting go for just 1000.00 a piece. 24x32” acrylic on canvas.

Yes, it's uncomfortable. If it wasn't, we wouldn't be having this sit down, would we? And that's what's so weird, is that so few people are having a sit down about it. Regardless of why they won't, eventually they'll have to, because we haven't yet discovered the new normal. #SenseWrds Prompt 145
