#TheCampfire
First Tuesday
February 3, 2026
With the holiday season upon us, the fire will be on hiatus until February 3, 2026
Take time to be present
Give to ones in need
Cook with love
Read, write, take photos
Make beautiful music
Fall in love with your life
Be in nature
Tell stories 🔥🐿
⬇️

A roaring fire beckons us with flame and heat, the perfect enticement to open our hearts and share the paths we’ve walked.
An ancient ritual that forms bonds between friends and newcomers, enlarging the quilt of many colors with stitches of commonality and empathy. Keep sharing your stories with loved ones or the stranger on the path. You never know how you may impact another life by speaking as well as listening with open ears.
Be well and we will light the fire 🔥 again in February 2026.

Black Walnut Ink

Fallen nuts in shells,
All covered in black cushions,
Ready to make art.

A week and a half of processing, six beautiful shades of black walnut ink. Free- resourced from natures bounty.

Good morning Susan! I’m at a nature reserve and following my ABC this morning 😜 please can I have a nice large cappuccino to help me enjoy the peace and quiet?

I wish that you find the person who will hold you and write your obituary with the same love and care you are giving your father

Listening to Love Ain’t Enough by the Barr Brothers on repeat while trying to write an obituary for my dad and not having him here to read it over and tell me if I’ve got any of the little details wrong.

I’ve been saving this one for an Art Challenge and finally made a connection with the #ColorADay #OrangeSun prompt

The near-horizontal #sunlight cast this luscious #orange light onto a living room wall —conjuring a magical ginger jar and the faint of #shadows of window blinds

I am mentorship-pilled and I am social practice-pilled. I think it should be the responsibility of any artist who has “made it” in their respective fields/scenes to provide some sort of window into what makes them tick for the sake of benefitting those that are eager to learn.

Last streaks of light, but better late than not at all. For some reason I was swept under by a great wave of melancholy earlier, and it completely paralysed me; I could do nothing but sit and snivel until it passed. I should have come out here, of course. The great blue saviour.

Good morning Susan. The rain is ending, but the wind is still blowing and the pine cones are falling. Wish you a pleasant lazy day Sunday.

Two great egrets stand in a salt marsh, facing right. In the foreground and along the left side of image are marsh grasses, which have turned a golden brown color.

Suddenly she was there and sought my closeness,
a little cuddling.
But only for a short time,
her urge for freedom made her restless again.
One last purr, my hand once more in her fur.
She stroked my ankles and was gone, forever.
