Weighing Time.

An abandoned chair scale, left to gather rain and leaves. Once used to measure others, now quietly measuring time itself.

#weighingtime #blackandwhite #foundobjects #urbanDecay #quietmoments #photographyoftheday

A black and white photo of an old medical chair scale outdoors. The seat holds a puddle of rainwater and fallen leaves. It stands amid dry leaves against a brick wall, suggesting abandonment and the passage of time.

👀 These strange tokens have started showing up around some German cities… Have you spotted one yet?

The Buga Sphere is a metallic object discovered in March 2025 hovering over Buga, Colombia, exhibiting unusual zig-zag movements before falling to the ground. Oddly, its weight has increased over time, from 16 to 22 pounds, leading to theories about its use of "futuristic gravitational forces”

(Not Altogether) Pointless Picture #31,882 - comprised of little tokens I snooch up here and there. From time to time I dig out and create arrangements. Not quite unsatisfying but interesting endeavor.

Abstract August, day 21: SPLATTER
#mixedmedia #collage #paintedpapers #artjournal #dplatter #foundobjects #abstractaug #onpaper #createonpaper #realhumanartist #artchallenge #artyear #onlybeautifulthings

Our journal page with several painted papers cut and put into collages. Along the left-hand side, a painted paper on the top with a found object with letters G A Z. Down the right side are three punched scalloped circles that come from collaged pieces. The background is purple and white, mixed paints, and over the top of everything are white and black splatters.

I found this rusty metal seahorse left by the bins 😊 Of course I took it home 😂 I cleaned it up and gave it a magical new life. I love upcycling random crap. Isn't it wonderful #upcycle #art…

I live in a 1904 school house and tend to find interesting stuff buried on the property, like these two toy guns.

I found these extremely cool playing cards someone dropped downtown. #foundobjects #tiger

A trio of discarded playing cards that are slightly worn and bent. The style is high contrast with few colors and resembles art you’d screen print or get tattooed.

The left card is a jack of clubs and has a blue tiger on a pink background. The middle card is a seven of hearts and has a classic orange tiger on a yellow background. The right card is a nine of spades and has a yellow tiger on a red background.

In January I’ll be working in the basement studio where i record audio content, fix things and build crazy #objectart like the one pictured. I have five drawers of junk that I roll my brain around in.
