there's going to be dozens of crisp vivid photos of the aurora tonight but I want to share this from my pathetic camera-
I live in the dead centre of the city. the aurora is so bright that it's visible despite highrises-worth of light pollution. it's not moving a lot though, kind of just puddling

I finished my (very first!) mini last night
here are things I learned:
1. DO pick something you're excited to paint
2. DON'T pick something w parts it is physically impossible to paint
3. if you don't shake the contrast paint to mix it, it looks shiny
4. this is fun

I found this dress at VV in perfect condition for $14!! it fits well after some wrangling of the halter straps but it really needs a petticoat for maximum skirt floof. also, the pockets are real😍
