I like puns and absurdities and odd juxtapositions and the stories that come from them. Sometimes I write flash fiction.

I’m sporadically going through old photos and found these from ~10 years ago!
Close-up of a gray butterfly, with a thin stripe paralleling the long edge of the wing and a little orange spot in one corner, perched in a patch of clustered green-white flowers. Close-up of a three-petalled purple flower surrounded by grass and little brown leaves, looking like a propeller about to start spinning.

more doodles #Zentangle
Rock Star & Piñata?
Doodle of a five-point star with the points curlng around. A line of “stones” (circles with a bit of shading) outlines each arm, overlapping in the center and on the sides. The angles suggest a dramatic rock star pose. Doodle of a curling four-point star crisscrossed with “ribbons”, hanging by a loop of “cord”. Each little section is filled with small shapes, a few of which are scattered around outside.

Tree art at the Menger Hotel
View looking up at a stained glass skylight from just beside a hotel Christmas tree. The skylight is subtle greens and golds, smaller rectangles surrounding a central rectangle, framing an oval of gold “scales” filled with a geometric floral design. The top section of the tree is visible, very foreshortened, with gold lights, lacy tinsel-ish ornaments, and gold and red baubles. An artistic “tree” of bare metal branches with small white and red blossoms, mounted on a brick wall. Large leaves from a living plant form a lopsided V framing the base of the “tree” from below.

From a Thanksgiving beach walk: this post is for the birds.
Grey sand, silvery water with waves rolling in, layers of ombré grey-white clouds. A line of uneven posts marches out to sea, most with a seagull perched on top.

From a Thanksgiving beach walk: is it still an attempted murder if it’s grackles?
Three glossy black birds on a patch of beach sand, spaced left-middle-right across the photo, staring intently at - each other? something else off-camera?

Magpies! Not the best shot, but I was happy to get one that showed off the colors.
Magpie sitting in bright green grass next to a sunny wood fence Magpie in flight, about to escape out of frame. Patches of white show on the wingtips and shoulders; on the inner wings and tail is black shading to blue. Most of the picture is sunny green grass.

Quiet time doodling tonight. It looks nothing like the #zentangle models, but I kinda like where it wandered off to.
sketchbook page with two triangle doodles pointing opposite ways, filled in with different line patterns and joined with a line pattern like a switchback queue or a top-straightforward maze.
