Wow, I was so stoked to hear my Good News submission to the Daily Beans pod this morning!! I did a shout out to the Chico Cat Coalition, and hope it will give a boost to our upcoming fundraiser, and maybe even find a home for sweet Taffy. Thank you so much!

Here are 19 stages of Psychedelic Bunny’s journey into being. 💫 Like I said, they’ve been through a lot. 🤩 I love how quickly you can change things with the paint pens, keeps things loose. #rockpainting #bunny #workinprogress #paintpens #drawing #rabbit #psychedelicbunny

This collage is the album cover of my life. #collage #NatGeo #art #surrealcollage #surrealart #surrealism #albumcover
A collage made from old National Geographic magazines. A man, dressed in a white robe and turban, sits on a plain rug in the left foreground of a desert landscape. He faces a spectacle of elements, rising up and pouring down before him: a giant pair of hands reaching down from the sky, cupped and spilling quicksilver onto a tower and a spiral staircase that pours a waterfall onto the sand. A see-through, anatomical model of a female body stands in front of the tower, the waterfall crashing at her feet, with her hands out, palms up, at her sides. A large, white daisy is nestled in her crotch. Above the tower, on the left side, is a 24-hour clock face, with Roman numerals, an inner dial of more numerals. A giant bat is flying toward you from over the clock, wings spanning half of the picture. In the sky, above the cupped hands is a massive, golden planet, a pocked half-circle, and to the right, a plume of orange fire explodes. The piece is titled “Desert Vision”.

These are the two rock paintings I gave to my mom for Mother’s Day. Judy Boyd is the best mama bear to my sister and me, so gentle and so fierce, and beautiful and talented and inspiring. Plus, who doesn’t love donuts? 🥰 #Mother’sDay #MamaBear #PolarBears #Donuts #RockPainting

Indeed!
I loved the guy with the giant stuffed penguin strapped to his back: “Don’t tariff me, Bro!”

These fungi and two-sided chicken rock are waiting to be found at the Tree Farm in Chico. Cock-a-doodle-doo! ❤️

#chicorocks #rockpainting #chickens #cocks #mushrooms #fungi #painting #petsitterswhoart #kindnessrocks
A rock painting of a cluster of mushrooms, lit up by the sun. A rock painting of a brightly-colored rooster, crowing. He stands out against a light blue background. The rock is a rounded diamond shape, and it sits in the palm of my hand. The other side of the painted rooster rock. A white hen stands rather demurely against a black and purple background. To the left of her is written the artist’s name “H. Boyd” and “2025”. To the left of the hen is written “Chico Rocks!”, and the Facebook logo is painted above that.
