I started writing a series of perimenopause haikus yesterday and came up with 15 in a half hour. I gotta make itty block prints to go with them and make cards or something.

I finally have started my vacation and had some ideas from last summer I wanted to create…and I can’t find my sketchbook. A whole year of ideas and writing…poof! Gone!

I’ve added my pin to the Game of Shrooms website! It’s an international art treasure hunt, where artists hide mushroom inspired art for people to find. I might get another one made, but so far I created two acrylic paintings on wood.

Went to get a ct scan. Asked about needing to remove jewelry during scheduling—they said no. You sure? It’s fine, they said. They were epically wrong. So glad I brought my jeweler’s pliers!

Sent off this oak talisman ring this week. It’s got a hefty jasper stone linked to the heart chakra, with a personal mantra stamped on the inside of the adjustable silver band. Can’t wait til summer when I have studio time again!

Not sure about this color combo, but starting a new mushroom painting. Doggo is unimpressed.

Our old puggo Fezzik is slowing down in his last days as his heart and spine weaken, but he’s still my chillest puppy forever, 14 years later

This baddie is toxic! Still have a few details to finish but he’s almost there. I have at least one more to paint before hiding them for #gameofshrooms this june, too. Anyone can play!

Late night mushroom progress pic, acrylic on wood panel. This was right before I smeared a bit, sigh.

I have a week off from work and decided to start prepping my panels for #gameofshrooms. It’s one day of an international (mushroom inspired) art treasure hunt. Might make some prints and earrings, too, but wanted to give acrylics a shot.

It just dawned on me that even though I am having chronic 🥄issues completing my silversmithing projects, I could make wax molds. Eureka! But it’s been years since I attempted it last. Errr…tips? And anyone know a reliable, small scale caster on the west coast?

Using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have completed the most comprehensive survey of the Andromeda galaxy and created a 417-megapixel panorama. It took over a decade to make and includes more than 600 photos.

Someone posted that AI was the same thing as letting your camera use auto white balance. WB uses 90s tech to assess light spectrum from the highlights in your own scene—it doesn’t steal the sun from another artists photo. It’s different.

I’m working slowly on too many projects, but here’s a little eraser block I carved this week. Little joys are a form of resistance, too.

First post! I’ve got both printmaking and silversmithing in the works, but here’s a cyanotype that is complete. Cyanotypes are some of the first photo images invented to record botanical specimens.
