Beginner watercolor artist, and overachieving generalist in life. LGBTQIA+ ally. Metoo survivor. Shocked to suddenly be the village elder.
I made a short and completely unedited process video about how I paint stone with watercolor, using Daniel Smith Primatek Bloodstone.

Arriving home: "I need a really stiff drink"
"What happened?!"
"I had to touch Trump's ass! /shudder"
"One Stinger, coming right up."

I expected it to be Gatsby themed with a wink and a nudge, but they said the quiet part out loud! I didn't think I could be surprised anymore, but here we are.
“.. Guests were seen mimicking ‘Roaring 20's’ era attire, a period just before the Great Depression that historians note for its staggering income inequity.” 🤡

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Could someone please tell the Chinese that we don't measure things in fifths of an inch? Please and thank you!

Tim Walz: "I'll tell you what doesn't make people feel safe -- a tank next to Chipotle. It's stupid and it's for the cameras ... where are the 'don't tread on me' people?"

I need to try this with Gracie & Alfred
When you play hand-stacking with your partner and the little (or big) dog, the best part of the 'hands in' game is the reaction from the dog.

Woof 🐕

The country is a dumpster fire, but my sweet Princess Gracie turns one today!

I'm going to be traveling soon, and I like to make little gifts for the flight crews when I fly. I found clear luggage tags that I could fill with small watercolor paintings. The owner can write their identifying information on the back. I have a lot of kitties to paint!

Discovered Daniel Smith watercolor ground, that allows me to paint on just about any surface. More in alt text. Please ignore the sound of my dehumidifier humming in the background.

Someone said this to me yesterday and it resonated. We all KNOW that bad things happen to good people. We've learned to live with that.

The real question that really hurts, is:

Why do good things seem to consistently and very loudly, happen to bad people?

While we’re still figuring out life on Earth, Voyager 1 is 15 billion miles away, cruising on 69KB, an 8-track, and 1977s Fortran like it’s nothing.

Finished my latest Stone Guardian. Do you think it's good enough to be donated to a Hawaiian art gallery, where the sale would benefit children's art education? Major imposter's syndrome going on here!
