Pass it on: The Resistance is alive and well and angry. Reports of our demise might have been premature

I love teaching my Introduction to Encaustic Painting class, and had a great group today! Here’s my demo painting, but it needs a title. Suggestions? View my workshop schedule at www.LindaRobertsonArts.com #EncausticPainting #Workshops #Encaustic #LindaRobertsonArts #ImaginedLandscape

I’m traveling in Augusta, Georgia and made the mistake of checking the news. After reading quotes from the orange airbags speech, I am once again stunned by the depths he can go. I found this at the Morris Art Museum. It feels like a harbinger of what’s to come. Painting details in the comments.

I’m so disgusted with that shit show at the White House today. Just shameful! #StandWithUkraine

I’ve been dog sitting AJ in Ridgefield this week and loving some dog time! I’m heading home today to do laundry and repack for my next gig. I don’t dogsit as much anymore, but I have my regulars, and these two came up back to back. This time I’ll have time to pack some art supplies!

Shameful!

Are you bored tonight? Send your five accomplishments, maybe your shopping list, or your five thoughts on Elon from the past week to OPM at [email protected].

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

I made it to Zumba tonight to work out some of my frustration, and now my current mood is this. I’m OK. Thanks to those who reached out. 🌟 FALL, watercolor, encaustic, and photo transfer. 8 x 8”. Available. www.LindaRobertsonArts.com #Encaustic #Painting #Workshop #imagetransfer

CURRENT MOOD. 🤬

Busy day. Who else is in? LFG! 💪🏼

More great work created in my Big Bold Texture encaustic class today. The whole class was so excited so create together again that they’ve requested another class for Photo Encaustic in April! Join us: www.LindaRobertsonArts.com #Encaustic #Painting #Workshops

I’ve been screaming this since 2016. Trump will back down in the face of resistance. He has every time. And Musk - who is going to fall out with Trump sooner rather than later - is going to have to get back to Tesla soon or face a shareholder revolt. We can win if we fight back. And we will win.

It’s my first snow day in my new house! Vancouver WA certainly gets way less wind than my old place closer to the gorge. Huge difference! 😳 What’s happening at your place? #SnowDay #VancouverWashington

I just got back from a few days in Washougal with a friend, who had these two other furry friends. They all made me very happy! 🎉

I was not feeling even remotely creative, but I’m so glad I made my way into the studio! The sun was out and I was able to leave my garage door open while I worked. Make sure you get out and do something that gives you joy. It’s as important as everything else. 🌟❤️

Apparently Starlink satellite dishes have a heating device to keep them from collecting snow, so the cats love it! #Starlink #Cats

TONIGHT: I’ve signed up to attend a community meeting with Indivisible on Sunday, Feb 2, 2025. If you are feeling furious and frustrated, I hope you’ll join us. Use this link to sign up: mobilize.us/s/7BYEFV

A little beauty please? Here it is.

I was not feeling creative this morning, but I’m so glad I got into the studio! I saw neighbors, pet dogs, and a friend even brought me a delicious lunch! There are still good people in the world. Make sure you do something that gives you joy. It’s as important as everything else.🌟 #Encaustic #Art

I just finished a demo for my Your Magical Lens photo encaustic class online. I’m I’m thankful that art takes me into another world, and for the great group of artists I get to work with! Http://www.LindaRobertsonArts.com #Workshops #EncausticPainting #Art #Encaustic #LindaRobertsonArts

It's all gray and doomy over here, so I thought we needed a little sun. This is a detail from a commission I finished in 2024. Encaustic and oil. See more paintings and my workshop schedule here: www.lindarobertsonarts.com

Unsolicited writing advice, #17171617: Don't just write. Read books. Watch films. Look at paintings and sculpture. Play games. Go to plays. Listen to music. Think about how these things make you feel. Making art is a two-way stream. To make art, you have to consume art.

A major conservation win! I won't try to conceal my excitement. This Hawaiian crow was BROUGHT BACK FROM EXTINCTION. Well done to everyone involved. Hawaiian crow that went extinct in the wild decades ago released on Maui www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024... #crow #crows #corvids #conservation 🌎

Both of the encaustic paint sets I developed with Enkaustikos are on BIG SALE! My original Mixed Media set also includes online classes that show you how to use everything in the set! Which one would you choose? www.lindarobertsonarts.com/encaustic-pa... #EncausticPaint #ArtStudio

I hope you had time to visit with family and friends over the weekend. It’s easy to get caught up in the rush of the holidays and miss those quiet moments. It was a good marker for me to change pace, but I did do this: New art classes are up for 2025 with more to come! www.LindaRobertsonArts.com
