🔹 Entropy 🔹 9" x 12" mixed media on reclaimed panel. Probably my most important painting from last year. A wolf made of falling apart, a radical and fierce acceptance of the decay and change of self, of becoming a part of everything else. Original sold, prints available: sasharjones.com/store

normalizing mask wearing makes criminalization, from this kind of surveillance to mask bans, way harder. you wearing a respirator to the grocery store, on transit, in healthcare is a practice of solidarity with the most marginalized in your community on more than one level.

🔻 Desert Raven 🔻 oil on panel, 2019

"Ash Dance" 4" x 6" mixed media (mostly acrylic gouache and ballpoint pen) on toned paper mounted on reclaimed panel. Another experimental mixed media piece from last year, this time inspired by Phil Hale's work.

This will happen but the swing is not a passive thing that will just pop out of nowhere, people have to organize. And they are and they will. It's going to change but it's going to change because we make it change

Sunlight doesn’t disinfect, because fascist ideology isn’t a mold, it’s a fire. You have to starve it of oxygen.

guys i think we all need to get good with the fact that debate culture is not and never was geared toward arriving at knowledge that is simply not one of its goals

🔻 Sunlight Prism Coyote 🔻 4" x 6" mixed media on old book paper mounted on reclaimed panel

You gotta randomly tell ppl in your life you proud of them, how they’ve affected you. How happy you are for them. There is no right moment. Make it awkward. Make it random.

"Contemplations", 4" x 6" mixed media. An initial venture into the kind of anthro artwork that I'd like to start creating. Hopefully this year will provide me more time and space to do so!

"Offering", mixed media on magazine paper mounted on 4" x 5.5" reclaimed panel. This piece wound up being a cool window into the way my work changed and developed over the course of last year! I've made the patreon post on it free now if you want to check that out: www.patreon.com/posts/offeri...

The media reaction to the death of Charlie Kirk should be a wake up call to everyone. Cancel your subscription, quit reading the works of people who think Charlie Kirk was practicing politics the right way, or that he was a decent human being. He wasn’t either of those things

🔸 Ruler of the Mountain 🔸 4" x 6" mixed media on toned paper mounted on reclaimed panel

Sold the last few of these coyote study paintings at Furvana this past weekend-- thank you so much, everyone!!

So: we're making progress on spreading the word that Capitalism is driving unfairness, and that Socialism isn't evil.. but we're not quite driving as much rejection of Capitalism outright. We must therefore spread further the word that Capitalism is incompatible with a fair economic order.

The belief that poverty and homelessness are about "individual choices" didn't arise on its own. It was manufactured through decades of messaging designed to protect the policies and interests that create mass precarity. As this new poll shows, that propaganda campaign has been wildly successful.

🔻 Overstimulation 🔻 mixed media on cut paper mounted on reclaimed wood Original sold, prints available: sasharjones.com/store/overst...

🔸February 1-hour Coyote Studies 14 & 15 🔸 I think these were my favorite two from the whole batch! Things just seemed to really all come together in a new way at this point, and I had found a more satisfying painting flow, too.

🔸 Arroyo Coyote Tracks 🔸 mixed media painting Painted after encountering these tracks while exploring the dry tributaries that feed into a river valley. These tracks were new since our passage the day before, further revealing how this vein of the landscape is an active wildlife corridor.

Hi folksss... Stuff with my tax situation from my old game job got way worse so Im going ahead and making a gofundme to try and get help from my community. Im super grateful to any help I can get with this in these tough times <3 www.gofundme.com/f/support-wr...

I was here!!! It was amazing, 100 worth your time

OH HELL YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Huge recommend, this is how I structure my organizing in the fandom (and it's very well researched, I could go through the sources for weeks and enjoy them)

Everybody should watch Crip Camp: youtu.be/OFS8SpwioZ4?... Nobody teaches about the disability rights movement. But it was a real struggle and disabled people are STILL overlooked in socialist organizing and coalition building. Make your organizing efforts accessible by masking up.

🔻 THE BEST IS YET TO COME 🔻 9" x 12" mixed media on panel Despite all the reasons to despair, to fear, despite knowing there is surely anguish yet to come: I also know this to be true. I have not lived to see my best moments yet. There is triumph and beauty and love still hidden over the horizon.

I switched over my higher Patreon tier from offering regular physical merch rewards to a once-yearly art request, since that's more manageable with how seasonal my lifestyle seems to be. Here's the first request, for El of their maned wolf character!

🔹 special power 🔹 mixed media painting this piece was an expression of a desire, almost a prayer— to find your special power, your inner reserve of potential, or the power to make change in yourself or the world around you, to hold that capability in your hand in and in your heart.

🔹 Celebration Dragon 🔹 6" x 8" mixed media Just a fun warm up piece I worked on here and there to break off some rust! I don't do primary palettes very often, but quite enjoyed it here.

This is my ministry

You should watch Harold and Maude (1971). I was shown this film in a college English class and in the discussion after the film, the professor pressed us down about worming away from legitimizing their relationship. She dressed us down and we deserved it and I'm glad she did.

Stolen with gratitude from Buttpoems.

Been getting into ceramics some this year (when I can manage to steal the time for it), finally got a big batch of pieces that I'd been sitting on for a couple months finished up! Pretty happy with a lot of these, gonna do a store drop for a dozen pieces from this batch on Patreon soon.

way more people should be deeply deeply dismayed about the increasingly collapsing population of insects, because they are so widely reviled (TAUGHT behavior, pls challenge this shit) its not commonly understood what a frightening harbinger of death that is

An eloquent image: Setting aside the content under the tarp for a moment, teens were asked to make art expressing what it is like to be a teen, and the end result was a mural wrapped in a tarp by adults. I bet a lot of teens would find this expressive of their experience.

Went on our longest camping trip yet recently! Here's a piece I'm working on finishing up from it, based on a photo I took while exploring an arroyo.

Excited at the possibility that personal websites might become a thing again. I grew up in the era of custom domains, creative site design and webrings and I miss it all.

I k ow more than a couple people who have lost literally thousands of dollars because they ran a crowdfund or something and then PayPal froze their account before they could get it out. PayPal can freeze your account for literally any reason at any time. Don’t keep money there.

🔸 Violet Raven 🔸 A simple piece I did to experiment with some different mediums and how they would interact. I think this had various layers of acrylic gouache, posca paint pens, and wax pastels.

“banning pornography” is bad on its own but it is imperative that everyone understand that these people consider the very existence of queer people to be pornographic they consider the most chaste depiction of a queer relationship, or an openly trans person, to be porn and they want it banned

🔸 Vivid Coyote 🔸 A wee 3.75“ x 5.25“ mixed media painting, just done as a warm up piece to play around with!

HIGHLY recommended read, since I've been getting involved in grassroots organizations and also just from being in fandom most of my life, I realize exactly how much power is held by being able to organize so learning these specific kind of skills is invaluable!!
