Limiting my time on social media, it’s been helpful for my mental state!

In the meantime, I paint!! Here’s the mountain lion I am really proud of :)

It doesn’t get much fresher than this-just finished up these ravens about 30 minutes ago 🤘🏼

Went with a 90’s color scheme which was WAY out of my wheelhouse, totally fun to mess with though!

Puffins are unmistakable birds with their black back and white underparts, distinctive black head with large pale cheeks and their tall, flattened, brightly-coloured bill.

Hopefully this fun fox can mildly distract you from the horrors of ye olde doomscroll…😬

Just making art to try & keep little bright spots if I can.

A party bus but it picks you and your friends up after a long week and just goes coffee shop, bookstore, ice cream parlor, thrift shop, short nap, bakery, a different bookstore, museum, cocktail bar on a loop until you feel better

A moose!

Have you ever seen one in person? This particular guy is a Shiras moose, from the lower 48.

Not as big as an Alaskan guy, still way bigger than any farm animal you’ve seen 👊🏼

If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's intentional. They're calling it "flooding the zone." The intent is to overwhelm and exhaust us so we can not effectively resist. Something simple you can do right now now is to make sure to take breaks and rest.

Good to know that over 100 yrs ago folks still liked funny pet pictures. From the Altes Nationalgalerie.

Here’s the second piece to fill out the 2 frames I got from Goodwill! I had wanted to do a jackalope for quite awhile, and I am excited how he looks in this frame!

Here’s a newly completed, fun & goofy painting of a grizzly bear with a gold tooth! When I found these awesome gold frames at Goodwill, I knew I had to do something ridiculous in them. Next up is a jackalope👊🏼

People underestimate how much of making art involves having a little sit and doing a little think

I had the chance to spend some time with the river otters at the High Desert Museum in Bend, OR back in Sept. Got some fun reference photos to use, and I liked this one of these two pausing before getting into more mischief.

Was really awesome to see people show up to support 70+ vendors today at the holiday market. I had been feeling a little down about (gestures wildly around) everything…another day with faith renewed. Every dollar you spend with small business goes so far, and means SO MUCH! Stick it to the man! 👊🏼
