Monday #art post. This small #watercolor painting, "The Bleak", was inspired by paint on my palette that I didn't want to waste. The original is for sale in my Ko-Fi shop. #bsnm

Sunday #art post. I have not quite done this tree justice, so I will probably do this painting again. But I do like this #watercolor, which I've titled "Color in a Gray World". The original is for sale in my Ko-Fi shop. #bsnm

I pass this sign, bolted to a light post, every day as I come and go from work. It's a good reminder, every time.
A metal sign bolted to a light post on a city street shows line art of two faces, and the words, "Your Work is not Your Worth".

When Nadja and Tennessee drop their next album, this will be the cover. #dogsofbluesky
A photo of two dogs standing on grass in front of a plastic igloo, taken at daycare. The smaller dig, on the left, is tan with a white chest. One ear stands up, and the other flops over. She is looking right at the camera. The larger dog is reddish brown with a curled tail. She's looking over her shoulder, away from the camera.

Remember, Newsom's only value is as a nuisance to Trump. He's in most other regards a shitty person.

Went to a friend's craft night, where we made these lovely centerpieces. We used old unloved books, and dried and silk flowers to create them. Mine now lives at my office, because if I bring it into my house, my cats will destroy it. #artsandcrafts #upcycling
A photo of an autumnal book vase. An old book has been upcycled into a vase by curling pages towards the center, which then hold an assortment of fried and silk flowers. A tiny pumpkin sits in front of it at the left hand side.

“Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

2 tsp lemon juice
1 Bigelow Lemon Lift teabag
1/2 cup hot water
