#Bionicle #woodentrain projects: "Ben Matoro, Toa Mahri of Ice" & #Jaller (requested name by 6yo grandson), Toa Mahri of Fire. Back/top views show that my coffee creamer pull-off seals come in handy for creating weird little plastic parts for my #woodentrain projects!
#AliceInWonderland #WoodenTrain details: #MadHatter #MarchHare & #Doormouse. Hare & Doormouse = scraps of canvas, painted facial details. Hare's whiskers = bits of thread. Used #miniature ceramic teapot; glued lid to side. Fabric tablecloth, teapot acts as #SteamFunnel (to Doormouse's distress!).
I used a sweet #miniature ceramic teapot ~ glued lid to the side so The Doormouse has his home. The #woodentrain body has a fabric tablecloth & the teapot acts as #SteamFunnel (much to Doormouse's distress!).

(Have to do another post for detail photos.)

2nd of my little #AliceInWonderland #WoodenTrain is done. WAY TOO proud of it. Making the #MadHatter, #MarchHare, & #Doormouse was so fun. The March Hare & Doormouse are made of little pieces of canvas fabric; I painted their faces. March Hare whiskers are bits of sewing thread.
Untitled (so far), acrylic 6"x6" painting.

#Thor #WoodenTrain w/handcrafted #Mjölnir! The helmet was hard - it's made of three glued together tiny things: half a wooden diamond-conical shaped bead, a piece of rubber tread from a broken #ThomasAndFriends #Thumper, & wings I made of fabric. Once all glued, I painted the finished helmet silver.
Couldn't sleep, so at 2:30am made a little Potty for Moana & Baby Groot, to help 2yo grandson as he moves from pullups to toilet (he's doing great, but friends help make everything more fun💓).
I know, I know: sleep probably would've been a better idea 😁
I often dream of paintings not yet created. & then attempt to create them. Last night, I dreamt I painted a portrait of a man I loathe: Stephen Miller. It was in my semi-abstract style. It was purposefully dark & menacing, showing the deadness of his Fascist soul.
I honestly do not want to paint it.
The clamps are gluing in my magnets ~ I use small round "doughnut" magnets & metal thumbtacks. Gluing the thumbtack spikes & backs of magnets to the wood insures they stay in when connected to other magnets in other #woodentrains.
Made my first "from scratch" #woodentrain bases. Cut the wood, drilled holes, & put in the axles. Compressing the axles together wasn't easy 'cuz I'm not strong. But, some extra force on my part & a big hammer did the trick. These 2 trains will be inspired by my lifelong love of #AliceInWonderland.

I mean it is the administration of the lowest of lows.
Found an old @tompettyofficial.bsky.social cassette that I'd made for my then-fiancee (so sometime before 2003; likely in the late 1990s!), and amazingly it still plays!

NEW YORK (AP) — Stephen Colbert tells studio audience CBS is canceling 'The Late Show,' to end in May 2026.
A painting I did, many years ago, of a battled-scared #Superman logo against distressed blue background.
"Independence With Clouds", a #USA-celebratory painting that I created at a Conner Prairie "en plein air" event years ago, digitally becomes "Distress With Clouds, 04 July 2025".

Because my patriotic heart is broken 💔.
Love of #CaptainCarter in a custom #woodentrain ❤️ Old shaky hands = not great handpainting tiny faces, shields, & flag designs (or ANY designs 🤣), but I like her! Designing hair out of frayed beige material & painting a custom-mixed auburn was a fun & crazy challenge. My 2 little grandsons love her!
