I painted this in Procreate for a song, my husband & I collaborated with an artist named Tot on SoundCloud.
I wrote & sang the lyrics, (alt text) & my husband mixed my voice. Tot composed all of the music & mixed it.

This is a heart I painted in Procreate. Sometimes I like to paint on my iPad, especially if I am tired, or painting something for music or design. So that I can easily change the colors. It is supposed to be a heart made out of patchwork of different shapes and patterns sewn together with threads of light. It is in different colours and different patterns on a black background. There are little glints of rainbow coming off of the sides. It was partly inspired by Bluesky earlier this year. It really cheered me up to see everyone’s beautiful posts. Tot sent me this song, (the music) to make up lyrics to, and that also cheered me up. I will put the lyrics down below. I tend to sing songs more on the sad, folky side, but sometimes I like to sing happy songs too. Anyway, if you read all of this, thank you! And thanks for being awesome! Patchwork Heart I’m a pattern on a patchwork heart What am I gonna do with my little part? Cover up everything that’s dark? Or shoot light outta my heart Like a rainbow Cut through the clouds Like a rainbow Shuffling along inside my shoes Walking on a different road than you I’m hoping we can find a thread to share Seems to me we’re really quite the same Really quite the same We’re different patterns cut in different shapes Ooo, are you? Maybe not, maybe we are The same thing, underneath this Ooo, are you? Maybe not, but what if we are The same thing, underneath this? Do you wanna make a patchwork heart? We are only strong as the thread holding us together Double seam on the things that we really need To hold the light in our hearts Like a rainbow Cut through the clouds Like a rainbow Shoot out my heart Like a rainbow You’re in my heart Like a rainbow Stick together like a patchwork heart And shine our light Like a rainbow It’s the colour of light Stick together like a patchwork heart And shine our light Like a rainbow It’s the colour of light Like a rainbow It’s the colour of light

Hello! I hope you feel loved today. 💖
I’ve been trying limited palettes, and this is one that I call Whisper Way. If I could coat my world in a custom theme, this is one I would choose when I seek some peace & quiet.

This is a watercolour painting, held down by rocks in all four corners placed on my charcoal desktop. It is a painting of a riverbend with a round shrub tree in the foreground, and trees in the background. The colour scheme is pink,mauve, light desaturated, green and dark desaturated green and gray and white. The trees are a combination of pink, mauve, white, gray, and desaturated green. It looks like it’s icy and snowy.

Russians have brought their culture to the Ukrainian town of Toretsk.

Corpses, no signs of life, city razed, survivors having fled west.

This is Russia's plan for all Europe.
