I have a full two weeks of vacation coming up and this baby is going to see some serious use. #acrylics #pleinair #painter #watercolor #landscape #art

Retail therapy stitch markers… I’m not the only one, right? #knitting 🧶

This lil one - stays in my bag always. (That’s a standard travel mug in the back for scale)

I am absolutely loving how this yarn is pooling- the next 2/3 of the shawl is a simple leaf motif lace and I can’t wait! Shawl is Suspended Leaves on Ravelry. Yarn is Cloud Forest by yarnhygge #knitting #shawl

See this cup of tea, sitting on my desk and not spilled all over? Very demure, very mindful. Not like the first cup of tea this morning that decided it wanted to spill everywhere including all over my skirt and into the keyboard. Not very demure, not very mindful. sometimes you need tea to make tea

How cold is it? Well, if you don’t have a weather app handy, and happen to be near a rhododendron, look at the leaves. This is what they look like at a real feel of 3 deg F. The ones that are more unfurled are in direct sun, and so slightly warmer…

I really feel like my tension leveled up during this project… I’m no where near done, but it’ll be pretty when I am! Bag by @jessalu.bsky.social yarn by @thirdvaultyarns.com #showmeyourknits

I love mine - it’s a great pattern!

Blessed Yule
My wish this solstice night is grace and peace to you.

Many thanks to SJ Tucker @sjtuckermusic.bsky.social for her amazing song from which I share my wishes this day.

I seem to be getting a lot of followers… I don’t know what you’re here for, it’s mostly gonna be musings about being an artist and random photos of leaves and rocks I find pretty.
Have a leaf.

If you see this, also post a birb 🐦‍⬛

Post a picture of yourself to show the newbies what they’re dealing with.

I'm reminded of the quiet morning at #assateagueisland... especially this morning because I really miss it. I honestly wonder if my neighbors go out of their way to be loud at 6am. It's Saturday - sleep in!

One reason I’m so happy to be working with my trainer twice a week now? I can knit more because I hurt less.

Definitely, especially if you want something that looks like it fell out of a medieval manuscript…

Clean!! And stained because yay staining pigments!

I really need to clean my palettes more often… 😬

I'm still thrilled with how this came out... I should paint more flowers.
