Amateur artist. Dabbler in many media from felting & embroidery to writing, photography, resin, electronics, a/v editing & more. Finally getting to live my life, boosted by BTS, who reminded me to love myself & live my life for me.

Something funny about getting older is recognizing in hindsight how many times in my teens and early 20s I may have projected my limited understanding of aging, and misinterpreted older people as trying to be cool or act young, when maybe they were just having fun in the freedom of being themselves.

Inspired by a lovely watercolor & kind, encouraging words of @centuryeggtears.bsky.social & a workshop on Klimpt & patterns, I (@spikenip.bsky.social) did a quick collage.
I was surprisingly happy with it until I added the water... May try again, but materials are limited.

Collage of two people on a train looking out the window at mountains and water. We're looking at their backs and one person in a dark hoodie and scarf has their head on the shoulder of a person in a cap and jacket with a similar scarf

You can make art.

The biggest step isn't getting good at art, it's being willing to make art that doesn't match the idea of "good art" in your head.

Making a lot of imperfect art is an essential step toward making perfect art; a counterproductive goal you shouldn't have anyway.

Just make art.

I was trying to create a pattern for a new art project I have in mind and somehow ended up with this 5"x7" collage instead.
🤷🏾‍♀️
An abstract collage of colored papers 105x7 block of wood. The shapes are irregular and organic and filled with dots, flowers, stripes, and random shapes, and a large circle towards the center-left has a fish taking up most of it.

We really should remind people that this is legacy Times behavior. They sided with the Nazis back then too.

Whelp, I did my iron-on transfer upside down and backwards and stuck it to itself, too.
Results: a hastily hand-drawn version before my ride comes! 😅😆

Making a T-shirt for today!
Golden Crown with blue jewels around it covered by a red circle with a line through it Three file folder stats together. The front one has 'Epstein: in large letters and the tabs say 'money,' 'victims,' & 'invited abusers,' respectively. Across the top in a large black font that says 'open the' and then across the bottom it says 'files' with two large red exclamation points.

This is so strange, I’ve just received this in a note from a friend. The universe obviously has a message for me today 💜

I come back to this sometimes and it's always comforting. I really needed it today. Just thought I'd put it here in case anyone else might need it too. 💜

Random photos from Seoul and Busan
Glowing light bulb filament shaped into a cursive word "love." Extreme close up of tiny white flowers whose petals look like slightly heart-shaped leaves View of a bridge in Busan South Korea that is lit in blue and white lights from a street that has an almost perpendicular Blue and White Wave painting along a concrete barrier. A white car stopped at a light blends into a curve of the waves. A bright sunny day in Busan featuring cluster of futuristic looking reflective Tower buildings reaching up into a bright blue sky with whispy white clouds.

Ran
Random tiny watercolor featuring small, rocky mountains surrounding a body of water that leads out to the sea, where a steamship chugs along in the distance. In the foreground, one island has a dense forest and as we get closer there's a scarf scattering of fir or pine trees.

Photo over the wing of an airplane shows a surface of clouds in shades of blue, gray, and pink Photo over the wing of an airplane shows a surface of clouds in shades of blue, gray, and pink & the reflection of a green lock symbol A view of a Korean sidewalk where the concrete squares are patterned with colors to delineate bike paths and walking zones in red, orange, and shades of Gray Tunnel entrance to a Korean Subway. It's all gray concrete with evenly spaced black lines and stacked gray columns down the center that look like marble. A box is on the left against a column with a dark blue umbrella sticking out of the top with a person's and barely visible beneath. They appear to be stretched out in the box and beyond with a navy blue sheet over them.

Tried to make a... I forgot what they call it. An image board? Basically like illustrating a story that hasn't been written yet. I think.
Seven images trying to illustrate a story that hasn't been written yet. Uses edited photos of Jungkook and jimin of BTS, Jungkook's dog, and two random dogs from the internet
