Absolutely in love with this portrait I did for a client.
I enjoy using texture so so much on these. It makes the portraits feel so intimate. 🥰✍🏽

Put together a small starter pack that will help pump up the volume if your feed is feeling a little quiet.

Does anyone here do Kintsugi? I have a question about whether it can be used to repair a square tile. It has sentimental value to me.

I grabbed a pic off Google just to show an example of the kind of repair.

Thanks for all the support on my most recent doodle and pumpkin post! I think all that good energy stimulated another female flower to grow into another pumpkin this morning 😲😁

Absolutely tickled this pumpkin came from my front yard. The birds I feed dropped a pumpkin seed and it grew to a WHOPPING 12.6 lb pumpkin. There's 2 more on the vine waiting to be picked.
This is what I call living in a picture book #KidLitArt #PumpkinSeason #KidLit

As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).
Reproduction of excerpt from Timothy Snyder's book ON TYRANNY: "1. Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do."
