Thank you! I’ve just completed a ‘sister’ painting to submit to the Almenara Art Prize competition for 2025. I’ll post it here soon.

Tammy Capstick @tammycapstickart.bsky.social · Jul 4

Yes, the gallery sold it on opening night.

Tammy Capstick @tammycapstickart.bsky.social · Jul 4

Thank you! And, yes, that’s a jar of honey.

Tammy Capstick @tammycapstickart.bsky.social · May 5

Deplorable, and also entirely on brand.

Tammy Capstick @tammycapstickart.bsky.social · May 5

Thank you kindly!

Tammy Capstick @tammycapstickart.bsky.social · May 4

Beautiful photos! She did a wonderful job.

This is crazy, right? I mean, am I right that this is crazy? The White House tweeted this?!?! Wow.

Tammy Capstick @tammycapstickart.bsky.social · May 4

Thank you so much, Ann—I appreciate that!

So, I answered an open call for a juried exhibition in March—the first time I’d ever done anything like that. I was thrilled to find out I’d been accepted, and even more thrilled to learn my painting won an honourable mention, and sold opening night.

An oil painting in square format showing an open jar of honey in front of a window. A spiral honey dipper balances on the edge of the jar with one drop of honey suspended, shining in the light from the window. At the other end of the dipper rests a honey bee, providing a counterbalance for the drop. The jar of honey glows with light in shades of white, lemon yellow, gold, orange and ochre.

This is a screenshot from the Instagram stories of the Summer & Grace Gallery showing the Award of Honourable Mention for the painting described in the previous image.

That’s so satisfying to look at. Lovely.

I did a little sketch of my handsome fellow last night.

A pencil sketch of a cat’s face that fills up the majority of the page. The only colour is the yellow/green of the cat’s eyes.

Love it!

Anyone else absolutely addicted to this show? My husband and I finished the latest season and days later he said, “Well, do you want to start at the beginning?” It was an enthusiastic yes from me! Who should I draw next?

A pencil sketch of Innie Mark holding a bunch of blue balloons, looking confused or concerned, or both. The balloons and blue card on a lanyard around his neck are the only source of colour in the drawing.

Thank you, Susan! Most of us know that these actions of the government do not represent the will of the people. Which is why it’s so heartening to see the American people stand up and speak up. You are the true America. We see you!

Tammy Capstick @tammycapstickart.bsky.social · Apr 6

That’s the hope. The lies have to start unraveling for them at this point. Stay strong, and good luck!

Tammy Capstick @tammycapstickart.bsky.social · Apr 6

There she is! America is not going down without a fight. We’re rooting for you, here in Canada, and all over the world. 🇺🇸🇨🇦

Happy Friday! Here’s a Berry Fairy for you.
#BSkyArt #Sketchbook #PencilCrayons #Fairies

A pink and blue fairy feeds a blueberry to a little mouse perched on top of the tallest of two yellow mushrooms. Blueberries hang on branches overhead and red clover flowers spring up around the mushrooms’ bases. A larger mouse crouches in the lower left hand corner of the page, munching away on his own tasty berry.

I’ve been doing some long neglected website updating and found a few old paintings that I had completely forgotten lurking in the photo archives. Hello again little fellow.

#BSkyArt #OilPainting #TraditionalArt #CowArt

A small painting of a white faced cow with reddish brown neck and ears. The head and ears occupy most of the canvas, with a bit of green grass and shrubs in the background. There is warm white light on the left side of the cow’s head with pale purple shadow on the right.
