Happy #WorldFrogDay! For those who need it, I've updated my #Uplift feed:

bsky.app/profile/debb...

Hand-curated by yours truly, criteria unapologetically subjective.
Found object art featuring a blue broken crayon. Out of the broken crayon, we see a blue frog emerging, with linework looking as if it is drawn with blue crayon. The frog is eyeing a fly, who is zooming in from one side. Art by Debbie Ridpath Ohi.

Been working with @procreate.com and doing some fantasy digital work.
Ancient magical portal in a forest overgrown with vines. Mystical bridge and standing stones in the sunlight. Dark forest with dragons in the background and a warrior ready to challenge.

I’ve been thinking of starting a What if… art series. Like, what if King Arthur was steampunk, and similar alternate scenarios to classics. What are some what if… ideas that you’ve thought about?
