I draw flowers well, and I'm not bad at birds and insects. Media-wise, I'm best at pencil and pen and ink, though I've done some decent acrylic abstracts.
Artists, I think we're all too comfortable sharing our imposter syndrome.
I would love to see you step out of your comfort zone and confidently state what you think you're actually really good at.
No self deprecation, just what you think you're the strongest at
Is anyone brave eniough? 👀

#portfolioday, unless it was yesterday. I'm an artist and designer, currently specializing in #patterndesign. I work in a mix of traditional and digital techniques, with absolutely NO AI. I can make it look like crap on my own, thanks.

I know that time is an illusion, but I didn't realize that it had been a year and a half since I'd updated my Behance portfolio.

Everything about this is fantastic. It would seem that carters are a species of animal (that says "ó ó ó"), and infants are born in oyster shells, or possibly that's an infant oyster.
If you know anything about me at all, you'll understand why I find this delightful.

This is the kind of quality content I like to see.

"Turn the Page" by Bob Seger. It isn't humanly possible for me to turn it off fast enough.
Anything by Wham! Absolutely anything by Wham! I am fine with George Michael's solo stuff, but Wham!'s self-regarding, ersatz "fun" Club 18-30 shittery makes me consider violence.
Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.

For this week's @spoonflower Palm Springs challenge, I wanted to do something reminiscent of the prints that were worn in its 60s heyday, using iconic images of the time. So we've got palm trees and cacti and breeze blocks, of course, plus big plastic beads and big teased hair.

![General Interference with Organizations and

(a) Organizations and Conferences
(1) Insist on doing everything though "channels." Never permit shortcuts to be taken in order to expedite decisions.
(2) Make "speeches." Talk as frequently as possible and at great length.. Illustrate your. "points" by long anecdotes and accounts of personal experiences. Never hesitate to make a few appropriate "patriotic" comments.
(3) When possible, refer all matters to committees, for "further study and consideratlon." Attempt to make the committees as large

Today is for mezes puszedli, Hungarian soft gingerbread cookies with an egg white and powdered sugar glaze. I used a recipe I found online from a site called Kabi's Kitchen, just adding a pinch of salt and doubling the spices, and they turned out to be fantastic. 10/10 will make again.

Linzer cookies, both raspberry and lekvar, accomplished with hardly any swearing at all. I used the Joy of Cooking's recipe (aka the Viennese Crescents with a little lemon zest, rolled and cut out), which is very easy to work with, and extremely good.
