Elon—the richest man on Earth—is gutting the world’s largest provider of food aid. He could end world hunger single-handedly and still be the richest man alive. But he won’t.

Instead, he spent 40 million on Super Bowl ads attacking USAID!

Stand with USAID: share this counter-ad…

You’re invited! Next Tuesday night (2/11) via Zoom, I’m hosting a mixed media hearts class. Pause the world’s crazy for a bit and grab your art supplies for this fun class. Make special Valentine. Details and registration’s on my website classes page.

Sunday night: watching Grammys and downloading 5 Calls in prep for the week! Who else plans on calling elected officials this week? I just read about this app and it makes the effort incredibly easy.

It’s the middle of the week and I’m feeling itchy and irritable because all I want to do is paint but instead I have to do ALL the adult things!

Never painted these before. They’re snowbells. Certainly not found here in the Midwest. Now prepping for a studio day and transitioning from watercolors to acrylics. Hope everyone is finding their own joy today!

Today’s mood: peace & daffodils. Practicing botanical sketching. I found daffodils that weren’t quite open at Trader Joe’s the other day. Glad I had time to work them up before they expire.

What’s your favorite spring flower?

Think spring! I've missed planting a garden for the last few years. Here's a watercolor take on a repeat pattern with the early bloomers and veggies that can handle cooler temps.

Hi Bluesky. Made it through a -11 degree day while editing a bunch of photos and website SEO. Planning new art classes, deciding which paintings to enter juried shows, thinking it's time for a hot chai latte.

Tell me what's good.
