Sharing this sweet spider again for #inverteFest 😁

Inspired by a spider I shared a living space with for a while, until she went off into the forest to chase her own dreams.
#art #insertAnInvert
A full-page colored drawing in otherworldly hues, with a spider traversing a flowery hill toward a paper message inside a bottle, with a tree, a hillside town, and a mandala moonlight sky in the background.

Have I ever shared this here? I can’t remember.

I made this gigantic elaborate patch for a super soft thrifted wool sweater that had a small hole in the front.

🚨 purple mushroom alert 🚨 I wanted to get a better shot of this amethyst deceiver but my phone died on me. Oh well.
A light purple mushroom with a streaky white and purple stem and a cap that is backlit in a way that emphasized the gills around the margin of the cap

I’m having quite a lot of fun with fashion lately. Thank you @tarynj19.bsky.social for your post a while ago about resolving to wear everything in your closet - I took that idea to heart and my days have been better for it.
A photo of me, a white lady with dark blonde hair, a wide-mouthed smile, and glasses, in an enthusiastic pose showing off my fall outfit (ootd / wdywt). It consists of a leopard print sweater with a dyed striped shirt underneath, chartreuse shorts over black colorful floral leggings, colorful striped patterned socks, multicolor crochet sneakers, and a lime green beanie hat. Fall and winter are my favorite times for expressing my style with different clothing combinations - so many layering options!

The Dream Repository is coming along well, trying to avoid overworking it.

Mushroom party 🍄‍🟫🍄🍄‍🟫 #fungiFriends
5-6 different types of fungi growing on the flat end of a cut log. The log is covered by bright green moss, and there are dead leaves and patchy sprigs of grass all over the forest floor, and some bare late fall trees in the distance.

Of all the things an egret could eat, it had to go for a star.

Resharing this one from many moons ago 🌕
Full Circle, 11x14” mixed media on paper. #art #illustration #fullMoon
A colorful drawing with an array of muted bright hues. It depicts a coyote searching for a rabbit hiding in the brush, a rat contemplating eating a mushroom growing out of a dead stump, a new tree growing out of the stump, and a moth flying in the dusky sky next to a huge neon yellow full moon on the horizon. As these animals and fungi act out the cycles of life and death, plants grow all around them, and a small mandala in the sky reflects the parallel connections and balance that connect them all.

HAPPY HALLOWEEEEN~! 🎃

Have some spooky art for the occasion!

Zombie Queen is part oils and part digital painting, Vamp is painted in oils, owl witch is mixed pencils on toned paper, and the witch cottage is ink on paper
A grand queen sits enthroned on a gravestone under a full moon in an ancient cemetery. Though a zombie, and a bit tattered, she is still the height of elegance, in her silk and lace rococo gown bedecked with bats and pearls and grand plumed and powdered wig. She holds a pentacle-frosted cake, and feeds bits of it to the elegant attendant rats that scamper through the holes in her gown (even the rats have little wigs!) In the eerie violet twilight, a cadaverous vampire dangles from gnarled branches, lurking and waiting to swoop on potential passing prey. It’s unclad and pallid, with unkempt hair and arms half transformed to bat wings. An ominous witch is perched on a gnarly branch under the full moon, partly transformed into a great owl: her face is an owl’s face, one arm has become a wing, and her feet are turning to talons. Her ragged garments resemble owl feathers. She’s poised to swoop into the night. It’s a witch cottage! That is also a witch! An old ramshackle cottage with thatched roof and crooked chimneys and numerous odd windows and doors and nooks and crannies; but at the same time, it forms the dress and hat of a gnarled old witch, who smirks at us with a knowing look. A black cat roams down the cottage path.
