I needed more whimsy in my life, so have started putting my tiny watercolors in crazy ornate frames. #art #watercolor #aquarelle #whimsy

Checking out at Whole Foods today, the checker held up a piece of my produce and asked "What vegetable is this?" Was it something exotic or unusual? Cherimoya? Chayote? Jerusalem artichoke? No. It was a head of lettuce.

Another tiny watercolor, in spite of the world. Spotted eagle ray #art #watercolor #tinyart #aquarelle

The horrors of the world persist, but so do I. Tiny watercolor of the blue ringed octopus of death. About 2.5 x 3". #art #watercolor #octopus #tinypainting

Another small watercolor. This one was bad for my posture. #art #watercolor #badger

For the watercolor geeks out there, I made a fun discovery today. Bought two new colors today, and discovered that bitume transparent brown and indanthrone blue make a really lovely black. (I like it much better than ultramarine and burnt sienna.) #art #watercolor #colormixing

2026 is going to be a year of tiny watercolors. I need to get back into practice, as I'd laid them aside for too long. #art #watercolor #wildlifeart

My 20 YO daughter has alpha gal syndrome. She started vomiting after dinner tonight,& I don't know what poisoned her. We had orange roughy, an Izzio baguette, and mushrooms. #alphagal #alphagalsyndrome #foodallergy #poisoned

Took a walk just after the fog lifted. So many beautiful spider webs... #photography #webs #dewdrops #beautiful #photo

This is kinda fun. What are your absolutelys and nevers?

This is proof that I'm middle-aged. Our ostrich steaks came in this box. It's a GOOD box. Would be perfect for shipping a fragile Christmas present. But do I have the space to keep it around for 3 months?

What's the most ridiculous thing your cat or dog has ever done?

Another small watercolor to distract from modern horrors. No AI. Just paper, paint, pencil and brush. (The lighter top half-ish is due to light coming from behind.) "Perch" #art #watercolor #tinyart #owl #standingstone #painting

Getting back into watercolor. Having fun with a whimsical style that gives me joy in this complicated timeline. "Runestone" #watercolor #art #runestone

This half pan should be filled with Mayan Blue watercolor paint. But my cat, fondly known as Mayhem Incarnate, stole it. So either it's somewhere in the house gathering dust (and hopefully staying dry) or tonight's litter box scooping is going to be very blue. #watercolor #oops #cats

The newest painting in my new series of Oddfish. Tiny painting, watercolor and ink. I'd love suggestions for odd fish to paint. #art #watercolor #cuttlefish #fish #odd #tinypainting

I keep trying to convince myself I need to do serious art. Then I find myself doing weird stuff again, like this little lumpsucker. First in a series of "Oddfish." And they are all going in the most ornate tiny frames I can find.

I always hate my art when I first finish it. Sometimes I like it better with a few days distance. Of course, it's been a while since I've worked in watercolor, so I need to get back in the groove. Anyone else dislike their work at first, but more over time?

For the artists out there (especially watercolorist), what is your favorite blue? Mine is currently Antwerp Blue.

Gabe and Mjolnir need a new home, can you help? Rowan, their human who has sadly passed, wished for them to remain together. Will help get them relocated to anywhere within the United States; please read on for more details! 🧵 Signal boosts & sharing are appreciated 💙

Let the rage painting commence.

Just saw the most suburban KS license plate ever. LIV2MOW Glad someone finally owned it.

We never did get any bok choy.

Our kitty loves to sleep under the yule tree. We always leave an open space for her.(And yes, she did remove an ornament to cuddle with.)

Grocery stores should hire tall people to roam the store reaching things for short folks.

It was too nice a November day not to go for a walk. Found this gorgeous sunflower gate in a park.

Just started watching Shrinking, and I really hope it gets better, because so far it's just sad.
