Not to be sad on main, but it’s been a year and I’m still absolutely devastated.

Somehow this ended up being my last picture of her, and it couldn’t have been more perfect.

The aforementioned cold-wet. I have absolutely NO desire to go out and clear that driveway.

Donated these to a fundraiser, but I miss the orange slice already. I'm going tomorrow to stare at is wistfully. #lavender0lilacsillustration
6 photos together as one image. They were all taken in front of a yard covered in brown fall leaves. The first 3 photos are different angles of a flat, round, wooden ornament painted like an orange sliced in half. The next wooden ornament is white with pink peppermint stripes. Then, there is a wooden ornament painted like a blue vintage glads ornament with a pink band around the center. Finally there is a picture of 3 baubles made of book pages. They are 'honeycomb' type ornaments and the edges are finished with glitter. The 3 photos of the half-orange ornament, again, but larger.

Today’s christmas shopping turned into “one for you, one for me”
A photo of two black analog cameras. The top camera is a Minolta Freedom Memory Maker II from the late 1990s. The bottom camera is a Kodak Ektralite 500 from roughly the 1980s. This camera is slim and long, and takes 110 film. The photo was taken inside a vehicle.

Working on ornaments to donate to local fundraisers has consumed my week and it’s only sunday. Conversely: glitter.

Apparently it’s #PortfolioDay ? So I’ll throw a few of my favorite pieces on here!
An illustration of a pair of scissors surrounded by paper snowflakes on a pink background. There is a watermark that says lavender0lilacs (pronounced lavender oh lilacs) An illustration of a Halloween pumpkin bucket for trick-or-treating. There are three sets of buckets in teal, orange, and purple. There is a watermark on each bucket that says lavender0lilacs (pronounced lavender oh lilacs) An illustration of a pencil drawing a heart on some lined paper. There is a watermark that says lavender0lilacs (pronounced lavender oh lilacs) An illustration of an apple and its peel turning into a steaming apple pie.

I’ve been stitching this CMYK test page and enjoying it a ridiculous amount. The colors are spot on, and instead of DMC 310 the black is done in 939. It’s perfect? I may never stitch in 310 again.

Sold by artbyrom on ko-fi is anyone is interested.
