I make and enjoy art, and love the flora and fauna of the beautiful Pacific Northwest in the USA. Based in Portland, Oregon.
I’m in a 100 paintings challenge - learning oil painting from @ekatarinapopova . It’s very fun and challenging. We paint ala prima (in one sitting) wet on wet. Here are my first 20 paintings. The main purpose is to establish a daily art practice. Controlling oil paint is hard! 80 more to go.

After being kidnapped, trafficked overseas, and spending 160 days away from his family, Kilmar Abrego Garcia—who just finally reunited with family—was taken into ICE custody after his immigration check-in.

The Trump regime is a white supremacist terrorist organization posing as the U.S. government.

In an attempt at organization I gathered most (I know there are more hiding in pouches and drawers) of my brushes and sorted them by length. Now I’m trying to wrangle all of the pens, pencils and markers that are scattered everywhere. Wish me luck!

More than 60 people crammed in a small room for days at a time. Unable to change clothes or bathe. Insufficient food and water. Inadequate medical care. Forced to sleep sitting up or on the floor. No access to lawyers.

This is the inhumane reality facing the people held at 26 Federal Plaza in NYC.

We are honoring #AmazonCrimeDay by supporting a movement to boycott it.

Amazon’s profits are built on worker injuries, union busting, and surveillance—and we’re done rewarding their exploitation.

We are #BetterThanAmazon. Let’s stand up to the monopoly and its billionaire founder by stepping away.

I volunteered to be a non-violent protest Marshall for the No Kings March in Gresham, Oregon. Repurposed a Harris-Waltz sign made by my friend Linda C. Took hold up. It was great to be with so many people who care about fixing what’s wrong in our country. Resist!

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand.

Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.
