I don’t make political cartoons but I needed a way to vent some of the frustration and anger I’ve been feeling lately.

Emotionally or physically? Haha.
I’m fine, just incapable of consistency

So the last two years around now, I’ve been consumed with the need to create a video game. It’s happened again. I know I’m not built for programming but I can’t help trying.
I have so many things I SHOULD be doing, but nah, my brain won’t let me.

I burn out on social media so quickly. I don’t know how people keep updating their accounts regularly for years.
Anyway, here’s another painting. Let’s just pretend I posted it on a regular schedule. 😅

Anyone else take the week between Christmas and New Years off, but now it’s Jan 15th and you have no idea what you did the last two weeks?
Anyway, here’s another abstract I painted.

My first painting of 2025. I can’t be certain but I’m pretty sure this is the most important thing I’ll ever create.
What do you think? 🤣

I have so many exciting plans for paintings in the new year! I can’t wait to build up my portfolio with all the skills I’ve learned in the past year, and to grow as an artist and creator.
This piece I call “Remember me by my hair”.
Oil on canvas 10x30”

Painting of a woman with orange-red hair and her eyes closed. Blue forget-me-nots are in her hair.

Thank you. That’s very kind. :)

I’m always a little hesitant to post my abstract paintings because I know lots of people don’t see the value in them. I know I didn’t for a long time. I no longer try to find some mysterious meaning in them and ask myself if it’s pretty, because that’s all that really matters.

I got tools for Christmas! I’m so excited. Apparently I’m a stereotypical dad?
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate. :)

This goose is just checking in to make sure you choose chicken, turkey, or some other meal for Christmas dinner. 🤣
Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas, or at least a tolerable one

Surprise mice sightings are never fun. Once saw one in my car while driving. I screamed, it squeaked, it was a whole thing. 🤣

They really are cute, it’s more the surprise visits out of the corner of my eye I’m not such a fan of. Haha

A cute little mouse. Look at him happily in a field and not in my house. 🤣

Trying to decide which paintings to show for this #artvsartist was more difficult than I thought. It seems I’ve done a lot of bird paintings, which is odd given I’m generally not a huge fan of birds.

Black-capped Chickadee CHEESEBURGER Call

It’s a bit of an inside joke. If you hear one of their calls, it sort of sounds like they’re saying “cheeseburger”

Have you ever wondered why chickadees are so obsessed with cheeseburgers? I know I have, especially when I was a kid. 🤣
