Blue Jay, 2023 Painted with acrylics on a real, preserved choke cherry tree leaf. One of my favorite leaves to paint on because of their rounded shape and relative durability. Bonus fun fact, I played audio of blue jay calls while editing this, which elicited much head tilting from my dog. SOLD

Juvenile Tricolored Heron Painted on a preserved Bur Oak leaf, ~9.5 inches. Thank you to Matt Felperin for the reference photo. My current favorite heron. Native to the warm coasts and wetland areas of North America, Central America and South America. $130 + shipping DM or email to purchase

for @magedah.bsky.social one must bend in the floating world— snow on bamboo —Chiyo-ni, tr. Donegan&Ishibashi, kigo: snow note: floating world—one of its meanings is instability

There’s an indoor slide at DC’s MLK library! 😁🛝📚 Video Description: Mychal laughs, saying, “Here we go!” He slides down the indoor slide at DC Public Library's Martin Luther King Jr Memorial central branch. Library friends cheer him on ✨ 📹: @tomesandtextiles.bsky.social

This originally started as a no-pressure experimental piece that I didn't want to allow my perfectionism to take too seriously. But then I began adding the coyote's fur texture and had to be deliberate because I love fur texture and I love coyotes. Acrylic on a 5 x 5 Fredrix Canvas Board

not the the most disturbing or awful thing about our jaunty little weekend excursion, but for sure the strangest marketing e-mail subject:

The Quiet Moon is the traditional Celtic name for the January full moon, symbolizing a time for introspection, rest, and conservation of energy during the deepest part of winter. Other cultures refer to it as the Wolf Moon or Cold Moon. The full moon, 3.1.26, is a super moon. #FullMoon #Folklore

“Velvet darkness falls over my Caracas. The stars are out in thousands. The Milky Way stretches its mysterious belt of whiteness across the heavens. The Southern Cross shines. The little city of my boyhood is sunk in slumber.” -TR Ybarra, YOUNG MAN OF CARACAS (1941)

'Be Yourself' - Taniuchi Masato, late 1900s. The poem is translated roughly as, "Do not try to over extend, just be yourself.". #Caturday #JapaneseArt

New year, new duck! Continuing my theme of #birds on the backside of the pool schedule board. 🦆💚💙💜🖤🤍

I haven't bitten anyone all year.

"I don't sleep at night,I knit [socks].I knit as best I can so their feet are warm in them." 95-year-old Mrs Sofiia Dukhovych from the village of Krylos,Ivano-Frankivsk region,has been knitting socks for Ukrainian Defenders for three years.During this time,she has knitted over 270 pairs 📹Reporter

There is no such thing as “away”. When we throw anything away it must go somewhere. #Minimalism

Blue Jays kicking up their feet and some snow at the stump.

Pro tip: If you are attending a crowded event in winter, wearing a well-fitting mask like an N95 can serve double duty by keeping your face warm and keeping viruses away. (yes, transmission can still happen outdoors in crowds or with close and sustained contact to someone who is sick).
