Current DOJ use of force policy states that even if the ICE officer did what Trump, Vance and others are claiming he did, that's still not allowed. From the policy here: www.justice.gov/archives/ag/...

I don't want to take down my Christmas tree. It's done up in magenta and orange with crystal garlands. Just looking at it makes me happy.

Don't let this Jan 6th point get lost: Jack Smith testified to Congress he had "proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election." In other words, he could prove in court that Trump attempted a coup.

Yeah, hard to explain that... #TDS #ItsAcult #MAGAtNation

I have an enormous collection of stencils and I'm always looking for ways to use them in my art. I don't want them to BE the art, just a shortcut. Here in my sketchbook I've used them to create both my sketch and my underpainting. You can see the progression. #painting #watercolors #sketchbook

In Trump's world nothing less than complete domination and utter ruthlessness is understood. Too many Dems don't understand the assignment. The party needs a battle plan, not a peace treaty. The old folks need to shut up and get out of the way.

I'm the spouse of an air traffic controller and I could not be more livid at the news that Dems might cave. I called and left voicemails for my Dem senators. If my family can hold the fucking line, so can they.

Throwback. Still a favorite. #painting #watercolors #sketchbook #artjournal #pdxartist #portlandartist #drawing

It was a beautiful Sunday in Portland. Farmer’s markets, the Portland Marathon, peaceful protests, and some views of Mt. Hood. This city is vibrant, peaceful, and resilient. We do not need a federal occupation, and we sure as hell don’t want one.

I know I've asked this a few times recently but I've been very unwell for much of this year & am trying to get back on my feet again financially by teaching my workshops again alongside running my Etsy shop. Please could you give my posts above/below about my workshop a RT if you have a moment?...🌿

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

A little something from a Botticelli themed workshop I'm taking. His women had such a soft glow. Very difficult to capture that feeling. Having fun learning, though. #painting #watercolors #sketchbook #artjournal #pdxartist #portlandartist #drawing

Crooked Con is here! Because it's time to get our sh*t together.

A little tired of listening to Dems in Congress telling US what WE should be doing. Dems need to listen to US when we say what WE need THEM to be doing. We put you there work for us. Think creatively @booker.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov @repjasmine.bsky.social @warren.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social

Hey @theauthorguy.bsky.social we saw some Squirrel People at Paxton Gate in Portland today. #paxtongate #christophermoore #dirtyjob #secondhandsouls

I've been into neurographic drawing lately. I love mandalas and botanical paintings, but I can't seem to lose myself in them right now. The method of the neurographic drawing relaxes something in my brain and allows me to get into flow. #neurographicart #drawing #doodle #sketchbook #artjournal

Attempted murder in the back yard this morning. They come every day for a drink and a splash. #birds #crows
