Art class should never stop being a thing. Like if right after lunch we all got to go down to the basement for an hour, throw on a smock, and make collages out of old magazines while somebody's eccentric, slightly witchy aunt tells us how great we're doing, I feel like we'd all be in a better place.

Honestly, I’m kind of liking the smaller size for a quick sketch, feels less intimidating for a beginner. Too cold for me to venture out today, but good excuse to practice with some vacation photos of somewhere warm. #watercolor #artyear

It finally came! Ordered this pocket #watercolor palette from bluestarcraftmx on Etsy awhile back to have an all in one tiny kit for #urbansketching and it got here earlier this week. Filled it with some of my favorite colors and today seems perfect for a test run. After it stops snowing.

Donated to Ukraine. If our government is going to do the wrong thing, I’m at least going to do the right and help show that we do support them.

“Elon Musk Has Plunged America Into a Constitutional Crisis. He Must Be Stopped.”
Powerful and much-needed appraisal from Will Stancil of the meaning of, and fallout from, this weekend’s takeover of the Treasury and USAID by Musk and his minions.

Elon Musk Has Plunged America Into a Constitutional Crisis. He Must Be Stopped.
The world’s richest man, unelected and unvetted, has taken physical control of US government departments, funding, and secrets.

I love the feeling of solitude in more remote places. Even with others around you can forget about everything and just enjoy the peace of nature and forgetting the rest of the world exists temporarily.

Zodiac rides will always be one of my favorite parts of #Antarctica trips. Sure, I’ll say that about every part of them, but it still counts, right?

First evening we saw land in #Antarctica everyone was up on the top deck watching the sun slowly set, or at least come close! Most of the trip was cloudy, but this was a remarkable way to spend the first evening after the Drake Passage. #photography #landscape

Spending a lot of today deleting news apps and social media to protect my mental health. Going to keep Bluesky and focus more on creating than consumption this year.

Back in Ushuaia after my second trip to Antarctica. Much to reflect on, this was a completely different experience from the first time and my desire to return has not dwindled in the slightest. #photography #antarctica

Got the first page of a sketchbook filled out with my view during breakfast, going to try keeping an ongoing journal and sketchbook with travel throughout the year. #watercolor #urbansketching but not really urban!

Two of the quick sketches I did on the last vacation while slowly learning how to use watercolors. Two weeks left to practice before heading back to Buenos Aires and Antarctica to add to this sketchbook

Bald eagle in Alaska, the sun peaked out for just a few seconds to give some fun lighting for one frame.

Packing for a trip always reminds me of the paradox of choice. I know I’m happiest when I pack lightly, whether it’s art supplies, camera gear, or clothes. But every time I struggle with it, I end up wanting to plan for everything. Unrelated note, trying to decide on a single watercolor palette 😅

One of my favorite icebergs with the different textures all around it, the top looking almost like a handle and the bottom like it was carved out of marble. A few moments later the side of it calved off and completely changed the look. #photography #antarctica

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish.
Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part.
Who’s with me?

This is a video I made in 2018 showing moons Europa and Io out in front of Jupiter then Titan with Saturn.

Lately I’ve been feeling the urge to spend more time on art with physical media and less on photography. Last trip I took a small sketchbook with me to try some watercolors and think I want to expand on that. 26 days before my next trip, wonder how much practice I can get in for #urbansketching

Everything’s a little draining today, so going to look back through some photos of Alaska and debate on what to do next.
