#Goodnight, #BlueSky. Hug your loved ones. Be kind to yourself.

Let's go!

To be old and an artist. Yeah, money for nothin'! She's still got it. youtube.com/shorts/5Bbd_...

I've been an artist for a really long time. I've sold more artwork as a living artist than some of the famous ones before they died. Why do women artists struggle so? I see this on Blue Sky. It's gender, yes. It's also culture. It's also shadow patriarchy. Friendly reminder: Support women artists.

How pretty!

Everyone should know the history. In my ancestry research, I learned that my grandmother lost both her parents at 14. Here she is with her folks, not finishing school, orphaned, then married at 16. What dreams deferred? The book, The Great Influenza, by John Barry, tells the story. #Vaccinate

#GoodMorning. Home. Have a restful Sunday!

#Goodnight from Arizona. My painting, Asterism's Dip© 8" x 8" on cradled wood. On a night I couldn't sleep at the Grand Canyon during my artist in residency. This was my view from Verkamp's Gift Shop second story home. Insomnia can be a gift. #GrandCanyon #Art #OilPainting #BigDipper

Fill your eyes, fill your wall, fill your life with beauty and art made by a real person.

#TongueOutTuesday Miz Mia doesn't get a lot of likes. Maybe it's her breed, and that people find her scary looking. She kinda is, but she likes people and will give kisses. #dog #rescue #GSD #Love #DogsAreFamily

#Goodnight #BlueSky from the Old Pueblo. Miz Mia and I are done with this day.

Good morning. Miz Mia and I are wishing you a lovely Sunday. Thanks for be kind humans.

Beautiful. Like and repost. #art #artist #fineart #artboost #womanArtist #southwest #FightThePatriarcy

Good morning. Good afternoon. I have 2,300 photos of this girl. Miz Mia, the rescue pup. You can see why, right? #Dogs #GSD #Love #DogsAreFamily #AdoptDon'tShop

Good to repeat. Good reminder. Peace, from the Old Pueblo.

Evergreen. He's just got to go. What is the hold up?!

25th Amendment, JD. You know you want the desk.

Well. It is TACO Tuesday, after all. I wish I'd bet money on his backing off of destroying a civilization. Maybe in two weeks, right, when the world isn't paying him enough attention? This is the behavior of a domestic abuser gone global. #TACO #Tuesday

Miz Mia and I had a good walk today. Miz Mia approves this message, and I do too. Hard to see, maybe, but it says, Ice Out of Communities. #IceOut #ChalkArt #dogs

Painting in the middle of the night because you are called to the canvas? That's an artist. #fineart #artboost #art #southwest

Ouch.

It's April Fool's Day from the past. My child was in high school. I was studying art at the UA & admired artists Jean Claude & Christo environmental wrappings. Hmm. Let's wrap his school! Good times... #AprilFoolsDay #Art #Wrap #ArtHistory #Prank #GoodTimes #MostlyHarmless

Stay safe. Stay non-violent.

Wrapping up now, but big turnout at Wetmore and Oracle. Another event at Reid Park 11-3 today #Tucson #Arizona #nokings

My painting, In the Night Spirits II© MSE #Digital from my oil painting at the Grand Canyon. I painted this during my artist in residency. Yes, there was paranormal activity. Ooh-oOoh, oh! #Art #Digital #ContemporaryArt #GrandCanyon #Haunting #ArtByAWoman

Good morning, #Blueresisters from the desert. It's a zoo right now. Here's a lovely lizard avoiding any predators. Have a productive and safe day. #desert #Southwest #Arizona #lizard

Love that beat. What is the theme song you play, looking at #art? #support #contemporaryart #womanartist #fineart #artboost

It was a lovely morning for hibiscus tea in my mug. My Cactus Spring© MSE That's thing about the desert. The mornings are wonderful! #Cactus #ArtByAWoman #art #ArtMerch #Spring #desert artistmelindaesparza.com

I love the vigor and electric energy in this. And the predominantly neutral color of the pads feels like the glare that burns out images in our desert eyes. Cactus flower means cactus fruit means cactus syrup and jelly! #art #artboost #womensart #southwest #Arizona #fineart

It'd be a shame if anything unpleasant should happen...Just kidding! I'll be good. #Meditation #Joke #comedy

Hahaha 😆

Hoping your refuge is calm. Be safe. Good night.

The war is despicable. Prices are high. Gas costs more. We have evil clowns in the WH. Yet, we still have lives to live and dogs to love (and other pets too!) Miz Mia could really jump in her youth. On a different day she broke a canine tooth. All passion. All of the time. #dogs #GSD #rescue #TBT

I'm going to count on this. youtube.com/shorts/YNUYV...
