I've decided to transition this account to focus fully on my art journey and on promoting other real artists.

That includes changing my handle, so now:

editorsansserif.bsky.social is now lithiumreflections.bsky.social

I will continue to re-curate my follows and feeds to match this.

These two friends are enjoying their vacation 🌴

Today's #artAdventCalendar drawing is a little throwback to sunnier days ☀️

#cuteart #art #artyear #birds #smartist
A digital drawing of a kiwi and a white duck floating on patterned inflatable rings in a pool of blue water. Each of the two have a summery drink. The Kiwi is wearing a flower on the side of its head and the duck is wearing a strawhat. The image is framed in yellow with a little rubber duck resting in the corner and two outlines similar to a foto frame on the lower left and upper right corners.

Here, have a #painting. "Ballycroy" came out of an amazing day's cycle in the west of Ireland which started in Westport and ended up in Bangor Erris - the highlight of which, in a day of many highlights, was the County Mayo wonderland of Ballycroy.
#art #SpeirGhorm #ArtAdventCalendar
Landscape format in acrylic on canvas. A road coming out of the centre of the bottom of the painting heads diagonally right then bends hard left and disappears into a landscape of open bog rendered as a fiery orange with red and green bushes. In the distance on the left there is a small white cottage and behind it a large violet rocky mountain that tapers down to the right with more mountains further away on the right and coloured a light purple. A sliver of water is in front of them. The sky is a light aqua blue with long large white fluffy clouds. The road surface is dark, matching the violet of the jagged mountain on the left and contrasting with the surrounding bog and with its road markings of dashed white lines down the centre and dashed yellow lines marking the edge of the road. The bog has pinks and yellows peppered throughout and more colours along the road edges where there are small ridges and or ditches with touches of yellows and grey-greens.

#ArtAdventCalendar day 4 is a cute little space otter I did for a friend’s birthday. Done in nail polish - the background is built-up layers of different shimmer polishes dabbed and sponged over a deep blue creme base. Painted some stars and the otter overtop with creme nail polish. #OtterSpace
Close up of the thumb nail with swirls and blobs of shimmering purple, green, blue, and orange over a deep blue base. There are two large white 4-pointed stars and a bunch of smaller pinprick stars scattered all over. A view of all 5 nails facing the camera. The otter is on the ring finger nail, appearing to be poking its head out of the “water” of the nebula. A close up of 4 fingers, which shows the otter a bit better.

Digital art of a blue and purple fuzzy bumblebee with sparkles in its eyes. A ribbon loosely wrapping around it reads, "That's a Good Bumble". The design is backed by a hydrangea that fades from a blue center to more purple-pink outer edges. The background is solid purple. Art by Moth Monarch.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 5: Autumn Morning, Kansas City

I did this little ink & wash piece when it was still hot as hell down here in Texas. It has Kansas City landmarks & images that remind me of fall in KC. It’s for my dad, who’s in memory care. Memories for both of us.

#ArtYear #watercolor #ink
This small watercolor and ink piece is a grid with Kansas City landmarks & images that remind me of fall in KC. There are autumn golds and oranges, trees and leaves that are changing colors.

#ArtAdventCalendar

This is an older one, made about this time of year, when Autumn is transitioning into Winter.

There are mushrooms, acorns, and those little cones/catkins that trees like alders drop.

#TraditionalArt using ink, chalk pastel, and colored pencils on toned paper. About 4"x6" iirc.
Drawing of acorns, a few autumn leaves, mushrooms, and small cones/catkins from an alder tree. The color is generally warm beige on the left, mostly from the toned paper showing through, and transitions to a cool light blue on the right from some lightly applied chalk pastel.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 6 #XtraXmas #geese #ArtYear #art #EastCoastKin Ink and Oil Pastel on paper.
Abstract ink-and-pastel painting of a goose standing in profile. The bird’s body is washed with soft greens, purples, and yellows, with loose black splatters and scribbled line work adding texture. Tall, thin ink marks on the right suggest grasses or reeds. The background is mostly white with faint smudges and colour streaks, giving the piece an airy, expressive feel.

For #ArtAdventCalendar Day 5, a friendly but very shy bog dweller.

Finished today and made from paper mache, wood, dyed hemp fibre and mulberry bark. 🐌
A gremlin or goblin figure with huge ears and a curious expression. He is draped in a cloak made from coarse mulberry bark, and bits of muted green hemp fibre that resemble seaweed functioning as a scarf. He has duck-like orange webbed feet, and carries a bucket in one hand and a fishing rod in the other. He is standing against a soft white background decorated with pieces of driftwood and some dried grass.

Why am I only just finding out about #ArtAdventCalendar? I've already missed five days 😭 I took this shot in Feb 2025 in my backyard.

Close-up photograph of a Coreopsis grandiflora flower. The flower is mainly a deep wine red, but its petals are tinged with a sunny yellow. In the background are other flowers of the same type and greenery.

Day 5 #ArtAdventCalendar
This one is still in progress so I will probably post it again after I have done some more work, once I figure out what I want it to do.

#PudgyHorse Lascaux Tribute 2. A companion piece to the first, following one of the other cave horses with a darker colour morph. Again, painted with pigments made by Mary Sanche from Cretaceous rocks from the Albertan badlands. From 2020.

#ArtAdventCalendar
Painting of my character, Pudgy Horse, a horse of baroque type appearance with luxuriant mane and tail, and deliberately exaggerated proportions, including short, slender legs with dainty hooves and an extremely generous girth; here painted in tribute to one of the famous horses in the Lascaux cave paintings using similar colours and simplified shapes.
