Karen Stahlecker. Full time visual artist-currently watercolor painting. Progressive, feminist, environmentalist. Nature is my muse.
Ironically, that ‘immigration policy’ can make our lives have less:
less fresh produce, less healthcare support, less quality of life as the diversity & economics are lessened…just less all around. Lady Liberty disagrees with her open welcome to the immigrant.

Sounds like they’re really going to cut off food & funds. He does know people are watching, doesn’t he?

And now add starvation as food assistance is allowed to expire without new funding😡

This is alarming!! FFS I knew this & the mechanics behind it back in the 1980’s!! So teachers are being ‘misinformed’ in climate science too?? We’re screwed 💔. (I naively thought the actual science would power an energy revolution.)

What followed, the challenge to resume painting & hopefully, continue development of my watercolor skills, is incorporated in the smaller, singular paintings.
My knuckle has healed to be usable again—it’s just larger now. Motor skills are a different issue. To be continued…

The 3 multi opening paintings came after 5 months in a new painting class, evolving my own style, learning botanical watercolor. Then I broke the index knuckle on my painting hand…no painting for a few months.

That is all just so true! So it’s up to us to be the rescue squad?

Bravo Calgary for being realistic about the huge downside of this technology, factoring in these realities & balancing them with available resources ❤️‍🔥

Thanks so much!! Such a hard Schlep to the day, I slept for 20 hours afterwards 😅. And now, I seriously have a ‘framing bug!’ I need to find more larger frames. What fun - grateful for some escape❣️

That’s a good question!!! I’m nervous to even be showing paintings 🫣 I haven’t done it much. I need cellophane bags for cards, mats & backing for unframed, plus a few frames😳
