Put together an #artvsartist for 2025! I did a lot of work this year!

We report: all the snow and the ice came in the very last hours of the night. It is a paper thin layer on the ground, and it will likely melt when the sun comes out, but the view is arresting nonetheless. Our expert is trying hard to contain their excitement, unsuccessfully.

If you feel like you hate everyone- EAT. If you feel like everyone hates you- SLEEP. If you feel like you hate yourself- SHOWER. If you feel like everyone hates everyone- Go OUTSIDE

We report: in the very long night before nights start getting shorter, there are more stars than we have seen in some time. In the sharp chill of after midnight, we watch a stray child from the Geminids dash in between Castor and Pollux, and then it is gone for good.

Happy winter solstice to all; from this day onward the light only grows. #death #rebirth #art #cat #wolf #linocut #digitalart

Stone fox for my bff. Working on some smaller baby foxes to go with it. Chose this stone since it promised to have some red in it, and it did not disappoint. I am so happy with that red streak.

Some close ups, the kaiser roll with an egg is my personal favorite moment

you: please act normal Ed you need these people to like you people: hello Ed nice to meet you me: 15th C Italian physicians developed a theory that epidemics were caused by the influence of celestial bodies and their movements, which is why we call one of the most common diseases "influenza."

poem from @genderqueerwolf.bsky.social arrived safely and brought me peace. felt like the first deep breath in a while! (and I found the bravery to read it on a rainy morning, which felt very right.)

I have placed a few sets of Hookland Bookmark on my online shop. * Please note, these are for UK shipping only * I am hoping to print more bookmarks in the New Year and ship them internationally then. www.maria-strutz.co.uk/product/book...

We report: in the depths of bog country, the will-o’-the-wisps of distant city lights are keeping the sky three shades above full darkness. This is not enough light to observe the night life we hear, no matter how much we squint. We still think we see things move above the water.

My buddy Laura brought over her sighthound puppy! He is four months old and made of legs and snoot.

when i was about 6yo on a walk to school i made up my first ever joke and my dad still refers to this with pride. why do wizards climb trees? to get dizzy spells

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

Everything is a lot. I'm about to read and fall asleep, but in case you need to see it here is Aristotle in his blanket fort after Emmaline the Ancient didn't want to play with him.

We deserve mead cups AND gay apparel, dammmit.

If you’re in the UK and were born between 1970-1990 you can just go to your GP and get revaccinated for MMR because you may have had single vaccines, which are no longer considered valid. I went & did it this summer. Easy way to help protect yourself & your community.

With this piece of bread on the ground in Ottawa, Canada and the one below in Perth, Australia, @drstip.bsky.social and I have successfully created an Earth sandwich. The hot dog vs sandwich debate is concluded. If the Earth is sandwiched, everything is a sandwich. HAPPY EARTH SANDWICH DAY!

We report: the Geminid meteor shower peak has come around again. Like a tired running joke, though the sky was clear, it pulled a blanket onto itself in the evening, fair, understandable, so would we. The stars we see stay still, which is fine. We hope to see them fall next year.

I hate how much I enjoyed this BIG NERD DESIGN ENERGY 🫦

Glamour photo of this year's holiday card design. I only print a handful for family and clients.

This year's holiday card. Silver foil on blue. I only make a handful of these, mostly for clients and fam.

songs used to be about taking your sweetie to the ice cream parlor but nowadays they are all about the delicate scrimshaw patterns found on the bones of a beached leviathan

Saw this in a lab sticker pile today… seemed fitting

This is my favorite gift guide. It also works for people you love if they have exactly the right sense of humor.

we must solve America’s loneliness epidemic

the prairies are incredibly pretty and if you try to tell me otherwise, i won’t hear it and i won’t respond to it 🙂‍↔️❄️✨ #art

I’ve posted this before but the light was perfect today- a little Victorian cat paw in a brick at the front of the old Norfolk & Norwich Hospital. As this is on the front-facing corner of the main gates, the bricklayer quite clearly put it there on purpose, at a height where children would spot it.

Running late today, but here’s the next piece in my studio Christmas sale: oil on wood, 50 x 60cm www.artachart.com/available-work 20% reduction on all available work until the 25th.

This was such a funny story thread by @neolithicsheep.bsky.social that I had to make it a comic.

Tales from the market - this weekend, a woman was looking for prints featuring distant flocks of birds. Again, I didn’t have much on offer, but challenge accepted! ☺️

One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.
