On this winter solstice, I want to offer you a little light in the darkness.

I've been working on new pieces in my Lighting the Dark series, and I'm happy to share them and a few thoughts on this series with you today:

Original seascape oil painting by Tisha Mark, "The Ways of Truth and Light" 24"x18" oil on linen (2025). This moody, abstract-leaning seascape painting has a textured, orange-toned, atmospheric sky with textured colors of light on the horizon. Colors from the sky reflect in the water below as it meets a dark, rocky coast.

trees & shrubs border a small pond and are reflected in the stillness of the water. The sky is grey blue and the pond mirrors its colour.

This happens to be a treescape, but post any kind of scape you've seen or can dream up, that'd be dreamy.✨☁️✨

The sun is setting on Christmas 2025..

Good Night✨️
Sun setting behind Apple trees, cedar and fir trees. The warm soft glow, despite the cold, is comforting. The ice cold wind, cuts thru clothing with its razor precision. Tomorrow... Tomorrow is a new day..

Something I wrote during some dark times earlier in 2025, and it helped define the way I want to live my life... spreading happiness and light! Hope this makes you smile!

#poem #hope #positivity
Poem about hope. "Hope is punk rock. Science is underground. Positivity is counterculture. Kindness is rebellion. Empathy is radical. Love is subversive. Compassion is defiance. Humanity is resistance. Fighting back does not take grand gestures, but small moments. So let your small moments be a revolution." The text is in white and the background is a rainbow gradient.

Wrapping up this year's #ArtAdventCalendar with a sea otter presenting you with a pearl because you deserve it 💜

And many thanks to @jayispainting.earthskyart.ca for organizing this lovely event. Definitely a beacon of light in dark times 🙂
Digital painting of a sea otter with light colored fur around the head and face and darker beige brown on its body. It is resting against some rocks with the ocean in the background and holding a partially opened oyster to reveal a large pearl glowing with blue, white, and pink light to mimic the colors of the trans pride flag. The otter is gazing out at the viewer with mouth open looking slightly astonished at its pearly find. There is a brown frame around the image giving it the feel of an old-fashioned photograph catching the moment.

For about 10 years, when our kids were young, I would do a quick sketch of our house on Christmas Eve after everything would quiet down. This is from 2016...gouache over acrylic, I think. Merry and Happy!

It’s the last day of #ArtAdventCalendar! Here’s a moody landscape I painted in September.

#watercolour #landscape #watercolor
A watercolour landscape painting. The sun, small in the hazy orange sky, sets behind the trees in a shallow valley. The gently sloping hills of the valley are dotted with pine trees and slightly obscured by the haze. In the foreground, the closest hills are lightly covered with grassy vegetation.

A plein air sketch from the end of the summer. #artadventcalendar #pleinair
Two cedar yrees stretched out perpendicular to a lake then gently arching towards the sky at their crowns. One is dead but the other is green and leafy. Forest starting to turn yellow is in the distance on the other side of the lake.
