#ShakespeareSunday [He] bounds from the earth, as if his entrails were hairs; […], the Pegasus […]! When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk: he trots the air; the earth sings when he touches it; the basest horn of his hoof is more musical than the pipe of Hermes.

 Rides to the rock!

The Winter Zodiac Signs: Capricorn (The Goat) in acrylic Aquarius (The Water-Bearer) in pen Pisces (The Fish) in watercolour

Exclusive to Bluesky! Water Sign by 🇺🇸’s Jeff Lorber Fusion, not what I’d usually listen too but I like the cover art! Blue A4 & all sorts of media Wasn’t sure how it was going to work out, took a step back & thought that’ll do nicely. Paul Kenton influenced obviously! youtu.be/n1Sav_zRIDo?...

Feel I should use this platform more than I do. Calmer than X. Inspired this week with French/Belgian duo Ascendant Vierge (Rising Virgo) with Horoscope. Mathilde’s vocals and Paul’s vibe something I like, great album. Reminds me of 🇩🇪’s Propaganda from the late 90’s youtu.be/-NwlPHgPyuc

#self_portrait I did these years ago when I was working in a factory. I had a couple different jobs, but this one was testing Thermostats by pumping water through them (in a "bath"). If I saw bubbles (sign of a leak) they were rejected. ;-)

since im now fully cross stitch pilled i’ve decided to make my 2026 project be a set of lotr tapestries for my walls and im SOOO excited, here is the first one ive started and ive learned. so much already while doing it 🥰

14th January, daily stitching marking the passage of time #intuitivedailystitching #textileart #embroidery #stitchjournal

I love these real burrowing owls and I love the burrowing owl embroidery kit I just got from the Canadian brand Hook, Line and Tinker.

Another bug down! #shakra #silksong #embroidery

Already made progress on my resolution to get better at embroidery

I think she’s done???

Took a pile of trash, embroidered a thing. I never use any type of glue on my projects, so this guy was a bit tricky to stitch together. What do you all think? #artsky

Very much looking forward to colour sprouting from the garden again, I’m bored of brown and grey. I’ll just keep stitching them from my mind until then! 😉 Here’s some snippets taken from my embroideries, some of them from quite long ago… 🪡🌺🌿🪻🌱🌷🌸 #stitchedart #embroidery #thesewingsongbird

Currently stitching: Finished the Lil Guy! Yeti, the January pattern for the FREE Crypto-Adorable SAL from Creatively Crafting #crossstitch #crafting

Winter Music, Léon Spilliaert (1881-1946).

An #artvsartist post. I only managed 8 embroideries in 2025 but I definitely spent more time on the details. It was my hardest year as I had to take time out to look after my family, but I’m very much hoping that 2026 will be better.Thanks for enjoying. Much love.😘🪡🌿🌺 #embroidery #thesewingsongbird
