Just an #ActuallyAutistic art exercise. Quite chuffed.

Today’s #ActuallyAutistic art.

It’s a half century of bending not breaking - and finally having things to look forward to.

Today’s finally completed #ActuallyAutistic art.

It’s called “The Magpie” and it’s the first time I’ve tried to paint a living thing that isn’t a vegetable.

Best #ActuallyAutistic present of the year. A thick coir doormat I can stamp on when I’m feeling stimmy.

I’m painting something a bit like this.
September 21, 2024 at 12:47 PM
Half way there I reckon.
September 18, 2024 at 5:33 PM
Still doesn’t look like much - but it’s getting somewhere.
September 17, 2024 at 6:54 PM
Start of my next #PostTherapyArt project.

Ok, I know it doesn’t look like anything yet.

This is my latest #ActuallyAutistic painting.

It’s a gift for a friend who has been to Uhuru.

I must have finished it because I’ve signed it. But I’m getting an almost irresistible urge to add more dots.

Views? More dots, or time to get out the sealer and varnish?

Better. Still unfinished.

It’s coming on I think.
September 4, 2024 at 8:53 PM
The very beginnings of a post therapy painting. It’s going to be a landscape. Guesses welcome.

No wonder! If they were cycling in the pool.
