This year, we had a Valentine's "staycation" in Orlando and it was both very relaxing and very fun, apart from the flat tire when we arrived! 😂 I love this human so much, it was perfect. 🖤

This image is of a group of actors that played in a Sleuth Murder Mystery Dinner Show that me and my partner went to. It's three guys and a lady, all dressed.. pretty weird. They're all striking unique, goofy poses, as it was the end of the show. The show was hilarious, the food was delicious and neither of us guessed the killer! This is my partner at the black light mini golf we went to, wearing his classic hamburger slippers, of which the lettuce is glowing a vibrant green in the black lights! He's got a cute bucket hat on and man is he cute. You can see some of the decorations around him, they're beautifully organic glowing foliage of some sort. This place was awesome! We got a hotel in Orlando for a staycation and the only speculation for the hotel was that we wanted a jacuzzi tub in the room. So this is me, in the tub absolutely luxuriating and looking at my partner through a little window from the tub to the master bedroom. It was such a cute room and they gave us free pizza and terrible drinks! 😂 Me and my love at a beautifully decorated restaurant called K-BOB Korean Street food in Orlando. Best Korean food I've ever had!! 🙌 Definitely check them out if you're in the area!

Yesss I can't wait! I love the professor! I even got the plushie of him! 😁 (I got the cheaper messed up one but - don't tell him that, he's perfect to me 😂) #shaniac4lyfe
My goofy "I can't believe I'm holding the professor" smile as I hold against my face a fuzzy little blue humanoid shaped alien creature wearing a beige coat, a white shirt underneath and the cutest little red bow tie that you've ever seen! Oh and he's wearing a little beige hat as well as Brian glasses, he has a little um.. light green ball as a nose heh and has his mouth open like he's blathering on about history while I take the pic. Oh and his sachet purse is across his chest but sorta hidden under my hand.. full of jelly beans, no doubt.

Been doin' a lot of photography recently because nature has been on her stunning shit lately. 😍

Taken with my Sony mirrorless.

A gorgeously intricate spider web, covered in morning dew condensation droplets which are weighing it down so that a defined circle in the middle now looks like a heart shape. Droplets are on every line of web and there are hundreds of these lines, it's a big web in a tree that has bright red leaves on it which almost appear like little fires because the sun is shining right on them, illuminating them. You can see the bark of the tree that has deep ridges and small branches are branching off around the web. In the blurry background, you can see trees and greenery that help to bring the web into detailed focus. In the foreground you see small twigs from some small dying plant. There is no greenery, it's a mostly brown/beige image but strewn about the twigs is a very thin, whispy white spider web that almost appears as though it's made of microscopic webbing because it's extremely delicate looking and transparent on the edges of it. The web is covered in tiny condensation droplets that are covering every tiny microscopic bit, it looks like millions of small balls of water floating in a cloud made of microscopic white hairs that was caught in some twigs. The sun is shining right on the web and, because of all the tiny water droplets, you can see a slight iridescent sheen on the web that gives it a golden shine to it. The background is a blur of leaves, twigs and beige/brown forest ground. You're looking at the forest ground, which is covered in a thin layer of a bright green moss that looks like microscopic little shrubs with rocks here and there. Surrounding the bright chartreuse green center of moss is layers of leaves that are various deep shades of brown and have a wet sheen to them. The leaves give a very autumn vibe in shape and color that contrast greatly with the bright green center. In the foreground center we have some very thin, very dead, thin twigs with barely a hint of dead leaves left on them. They're covered in microscopic webbing that might otherwise not be visible, but in this instance, the air was full of moisture so tiny droplets line the webbing which results in an almost transparent cluster of tiny droplets that is only solid white right in the center of it all. Some of the tiny branches have fat droplets just about to drip off them but are suspended in air. The background is a colorful blur of shades of blue, red, brown, green, beige blades of grass making lines across the blur to almost create a unique pattern. The spider that made this web must have been tiny and adorable.

I love foggy mornings 🖤
The sky above is clear with just a slight blue tint and barely visible whisps of white clouds here and there. Below is a forest of bushy and mostly bare trees of varying heights. Some curve to the side, some branch out like a very skinny broccoli mostly made of sticks. There's a light mist over the forest, giving silent hill vibes to the scene. There's a dirt road, my driveway, that leads from the center of the image off to the left side and is cut off by a tree leaning towards the road. It has an eerie vibe but also kind of peaceful. It's early morning and the clouds are covering the sun so it's not too bright.

Love me a good ✨new project✨ to distract me from all my 🤮not finished projects🤮 and so I get some free seratoninz of which I'm lacking 😂 can you guess what it is from my mess?

#crafts #art #crafter #arts #crafting #artist #artists #artoftheday #messy
On a circular dark wood table there is a scattered, hectic mess of craft supplies that includes books of craft paper, each with different pattern styles that are colorful. One has a beautiful treeline silhouette with a dark sky and iridescent stars with lines connecting astrological signs, I think. The other is light colors with white snow flakes in the foreground. In the mess there's scissors, glue, acrylic paint markers, paper cutters, stamps, a cutting mat and a piece of paper that's sectioned out into small box sections that appear to say on each box: page 4, page five, page 6 but the paper is cropped so only half is showing. There's a small cutting guide line in the middle of the paper. In Snapchat I added text at the top saying "Starting a new project today" with the three star emojis on either side. There's also a small bag of pictures with some funny frog guy on top holding a banjo, I don't know if that's even noticeable from viewing this pic but since I know what it is, now you know too so it'll be our secret lol

Art by Ricardo Levins Morales
This art print appears to be made by linograph or screen printing, maybe, I'm not positive. It depicts a couple large buildings next to small homes across from a mountain with a clear plane in-between as well as twisting clouds in the sky. At the base of the mountain, I could be wrong, but it looks like there's a silhouette of a humanoid figure with a pointy carrot shaped nose in some shrubbery. I didn't make this art so apologies if I'm misrepresenting it but this is how it appears to me. In the sky between the buildings and mountain is unevenly sized, bold, jutting red font that says "Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral."

Woke up to our pipes being frozen because I'm a dirty floridian who isn't used to dealing with this level of cold so I didn't leave em dripping or wtvr you're supposed to do 😂🤣
Tiny frozen droplets on a side mirror of my black car. It's so pretty how small the little frozen balls of condensation cover the top of the mirror. I wanna lick it, but I won't lol An icy windshield with the forest in the background, probably a boring image to most but I find it beautiful because I never see this stuff. I wish I was a tiny bug who isn't bothered by the cold so I could slide down it. Ice crystals forming on a car window in lines of branching out icicles that look like an ice slug took a journey around the window leaving a trail of beautiful fractal patterned ice trails.

Y'all remember a scanner darkly? Just rewatched it recently and ugh, it's still so damn good. Makes me wish there were more rotoscoped movies out there. 😭

#rotoscope
Image is of my tv playing the movie a scanner darkly, paused on a scene of an animated Keanu Reeve's face, looking pensive with eyes down. On the wall behind my TV is some great art.

A beautiful, plus size, black fairy femme with brown shoulder length hair laying naked in soft grass amongst some big red mushrooms with white spots on them and a forest in the background. Their wings are bright white and sparkly as well as slightly transparent. Their hand props up their face, gently on their cheek and the other arm holds onto the elbow of the arm holding their face up.

Lil craft piece I made for myself 😂 one of the rocks fell off on the bottom left side but I like to think of it as a rabbit or turtle hole now heh.

#art #craft #artist #ghost #spooky #moss #natureart #cuteart #moon #crafter
Circular 3D art piece featuring a small ghost in the forest, blushing, after being spotted being a cutie. Surrounded by found twigs, mimicking a forest, with moss on the ground and scattered pretty rocks along the path. On the bottom left side there's a hole that used to hold a rock but now is a home for a rabbit or turtle. There's also a crescent moon in the sky above the ghost.

The way the ice formed on top of my car the other day was so pretty 😍

#ice #photography #cold #icey #beautiful
Image is the icey roof of a car, with golden sunlight shining on it, accentuating swirls and waves of ice formed in a sort of wavey, fur like pattern. In the background of the car is a forest, brown and dead from the cold. Also, a trashcan that I didn't think to cut out of the picture lol

A plus size naked red mushroom person with boobies and no arms that has a lil brown snail on its cap, surrounded by black tree silhouettes reaching into a starry sky.
