A friend's photograph of the total solar eclipse we viewed together, and my painting of his photograph
A dark sky with a small bright round presence over a golden horizon, dark trees, and water reflecting the shadow of the trees and the glow of the sky. A painting that is far from identical to the picture. The same general concept, but recreated with less subtlety in the colors and shapes of the original image.

Work in progress. Didn't want to work within the limitations of any previously started piece, so I just dripped some "apple tart" acrylic paint onto this piece of broken board I saved from a taekwondo demo class I participated in years ago. Started moving the paint and was reminded of the Shenandoah
Wavy lines and dabs of paint in various shades of monotone green, perhaps reminiscent of tree covered mountains

A flower from the bouquet my home is currently being blessed by
A dark red dahlia with petals that lighten slightly towards the middle of the flower and yellow reproductive parts

Some beautiful things I noticed today
Brown snail fully exposing its body The word IS carved in bark Goth ear shaped mushrooms A small green leaf outlined by the slightly larger yellow leaf with scalloped edges beneath it

This is a Shoop. The Shoop possesses enormous, fluctuating amounts of power. The appearance of a Shoop is always accompanied by a massive black hole. It may be part of the Shoop's anatomy, but not enough studies have been conducted to say so conclusively.

Acrylic on canvas, my latest piece.
Thick waves of fiery paint streak the upper part of the canvas while the bottom is gray and navy on the left with a concentrated black region beginning on the left and sweeping, deepening on the right, below the bottom curve of The Shoop. The Shoop has three pairs of eyes in three shades of orange, stacked on one another.

Segments of my latest doodle painting

Acrylic on canvas
White, light blue, yellow, shades of orange, and purple intermingle in various blurs, swirls, and swoops. Black lines and circles join the other colors, streaking, bending, and crawling across the canvas. Spots, swirls, and stripes are the subject of the photo, and only the foreground is in focus.

This is a Gem Sprite. The planet they are from is populated by a constantly fluctuating number of Gem Sprites, brief physical manifestations of spirit who only appear temporarily to smooth wrinkles and curate harmony

Acrylic on canvas 💫
Green aurora background. A pink gemstone with chocolate swirl butterfly wings hold a head comprised of white wavy lines stemming upwards. Two white U shaped lines are positioned as eyes. Glittery lines of subtle gold and pink accent the character's head lines and overall shape. The same painting shown at an angle that allows the reflective quality of the glitter paint to be more apparent.

Work in progress! Abstract and colorful feels best for me
A chaotic acrylic on canvas painting of orange, yellow, purple, blue, pink, and white. Smears, geometric shapes, puddles, etc. cloud the space.

I have completed one (1).
One side of the wooden circle features a blue/green/gold eye with light brown eyelids, the top of which reads IT'S ALL WE KNOW in letters positioned like eyelashes The other side of the wooden coin is painted like an Earth and says TINY WORLD in bubble letters

Zoom out far enough
Away from the Earth
There's a tiny world there
It's all we know 🎶

Progress pic of some trinkets I'll be giving to followers of my favorite band
21 little Earths, painted on wooden circles edged with white

Untitled, acrylic on canvas. I'm curious what this reminds you of or makes you feel.
Red background, thick stripes of splotches of mint and four shades of blue getting darker from left to right, and some mostly white shapes moving up across the painting.

Omg! The second I saw this, I knew this must be by the same artist who made this piece I bought at a thrift store years ago. I never cared to investigate the origin of the piece, but it's exciting and amazing to discover randomly like this. Thank you for posting, now and always 😊
Green Composition by Wassily Kandinsky. Thick black and white lines, curves, diverse polygons, blocks of color, a grid of multicolored squares, a few circles of varying opacities, and some fields of texture overlap.

Untitled collaboration between me and my partner, 2023? Acrylic on canvas.
An abstract painting, almost every color of the rainbow swirling and pouring through the canvas. Runnels, columns, and patches of white are visible over and around the messy, colorful brushstrokes.

I've used metallic paint very few times, but I do like it
1/3 snapshots to show the reflective quality of the silver paint, same painting as the original post. In this shot, the paint is reflecting the least. 2/3 snapshots to show the reflective quality of the silver paint, same painting as the original post. In this shot, the paint is reflecting some, revealing some detail. 3/3 snapshots to show the reflective quality of the silver paint, same painting as the original post. In this shot, the paint is reflecting the most.

Something experimental. It's hard to try new things sometimes
A painting of vaguely identifiable things comprised of a variety of textures and details. The focus and subject of the painting are both unclear, though an eye is certainly identifiable. The same painting flipped 180°. Perhaps there's a robot.

The additional day I took off work has been well spent
On a wooden table, a small painting in progress depicting a semi-abstract figure smoking a cigarette and smelling a flower from opposite sides of its head. Bottles in a variety of colors of cheap acrylic paint, a paint-stained mug containing two thin brushes and perhaps water, a paper plate palette, a paper towel used to dry brushes in between colors, and a television displaying a cargo ship dock or something like that are also visible.

Newest painting, untitled.
Abstract acrylic on canvas, white and shades of blue. Cubes, diagonal lines, smears, and a giant white squiggle that divides into three curved lines going through the middle of the painting.

A view of Dulles Airport from the Metro platform. The train is pulling in. It's a bright, sunny day with illuminated white clouds gracing the sky.

Communion by bell hooks is the best book I've ever read. I not only recommend it, I beg you to read it and internalize it. If I could get the whole world to read and embrace one book, it would be this one. I am endlessly grateful for the light bell hooks shines on my love for myself.
A paperback copy of Communion: The Female Search For Love by bell hooks. The cover is indigo-purple with white and black text in various sizes and fonts stating the title and subtitle of the book, the author's name, the words "NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF ALL ABOUT LOVE" and a review praising the book.

#BlueSkyArtShow theme #Underneath
Within a DC Metro station, below concrete molded into various Brutalist shapes. Thick curves, boxy figures. The point of view is from the platform, down the track. A person sits on a bench on the distance. A picture shot from the ground facing the sky, bark featuring a couple dozen clustered, warm white/yellow, round and mostly small mushrooms, gills exposed. A blue sky and sparse tree branches lit by the Sun are out of focus above the mushrooms.

Original acrylic painting. Dark and light creature of many shapes and textures. A small portion of a larger (unseen) piece.

Inside an apartment walk up, mostly wooden, with the shot focused on a large "window" at the end of a stairwell that has no glass. On the other side of the hole that is the "window" are branches of a tree blooming pink flowers. The picture is clearly taken from the second or third floor stairwell for the view to be branches and no trunk. Because the brightest part of the shot comes from external light, the foreground is dark, and this, along with the linear texture of the various wood and siding, contrasts the bright floral view through the "window."
