Feel bad for Illia, but Super Green performance from Mikhail Shaidorov. Well deserved.

21-year-old Mikhail Shaidorov, wearing braces and skating to The Fifth Element, is an Olympic gold medalist. Extremely fuck yeah.

I guess I had the benefit of having good teachers as a young adult.

2 days of watercolor

I've been practicing watercoloring. It's very frustrating in difficulty. But I read the best damn advice I have ever heard from a random art instructor. Since Bluesky is the place that doesn't allow deep dives by nature, I slapped it on one of my pieces. Pairs well with Two Wolves and the times
"As a painter and instructor I’ve found watercolor earns its reputation as the hardest medium because it demands what most of us spend our lives avoiding: restraint under pressure. You can’t take it back. Oil lets you scrape down and repaint. Acrylic dries fast, but you can paint over mistakes. Watercolor? Once that pigment hits wet paper, you’re committed. Lift it, scrub it, try to fix it: you’ll just make mud and lose the freshness. The real fight is with yourself. Watercolor is a dance. Half of it is doing. Half of it is not doing. You lay a wash, maybe it’s perfect, maybe it’s close, and now you wait. Your hand wants to touch it. Adjust that edge. Soften that color. Drop in one more stroke. But the wash is still wet, still moving, and if you go back in, you wreck it. That restraint is brutal. Sitting on your hands while a passage dries, trusting the pigment to settle where it needs to, takes more discipline than most painters have. It requires a plan you can’t change mid flight. You have to know your values before you start. Add the fact that watercolors dry lighter, so you need 20% darker values than you think. You have to see the light, because you can’t paint it in later. You leave it. That white paper is your only white. Every choice narrows your options. Go too dark too soon and you’ve got nowhere to go. Lose your lights and the painting dies. Most painters want to feel it out, push and pull, fix as they go. Watercolor says no. You design it first, you commit, and you let it be. The best watercolorists aren’t trying to dominate the medium. They’ve learned to work with it. Set things up, then step back. Do your part, then leave it alone. And for most of us, that leaving it alone part is the wall we can’t get past before advice. The story of Two Wolves. After advice. Lake.

Dangit Phil, ah well. Long winters are nothing new here. Have a good a Groundhogs day and don't get stuck making the same dumb mistakes over and over, it's super annoying for people who actually want to progress on this timeline.

Just doing palette cleanse because the vomit spew of news gets to be more than I can handle. Birds and squirrels, also some arty things I did in the deep freeze.

I had to repost this because someone besides me read Flowers for Algernon and it shocked me out of my socks.

Noam Chomsky and Stephen Pinker say Epstein was an intellectual force with a mind like steel trap and then his e-mails read like the ending of Flowers for Algernon.

Constanty, I am reminded how appropriate the donkey is as a symbol for the democratic party, though pretty insulting to the donkey. Give em' a hammer, and they use it as a paperweight.

"Diamond dust is a weather phenomenon consisting of tiny ice crystals that form near the ground in very cold conditions, typically below freezing. It often occurs in polar regions and can create a sparkling effect in the air when sunlight reflects off the crystals." #Michigan #Weather

I never am unhappy about winter weather. It's messy. It's inconvenient. But it's how we live, adapt, and survive extreme situations that makes or breaks us. Help each other in hard times. It is the most human thing you can do, if you are indeed human. Owl drawing from this morning, it sees you.

Recalibration of brain needed for obvious reasons.
