This is a beautiful piece. I love the variety of color within the wood. Well done!

That more than 1/2 of humanity is given attention one day per year is proof that patriarchy still dominates this poor world.

Welcome to Bluesky! There are many artists here as you will see. Everyone is friendly and glad to help a newcomer. I love your little embroid-paintings! A cool idea.

Perfect for the prompt! I like how the purple resembles feathers but also eye creases. 💜

I recently posted an “eye” art share. this painting goes great with it!

#ArtShare #eyes #eye #see #sight #vision #ArtSky #ArtistsofBluesky #ShareYourArt #artgallery #art #handmade #medium

Please share any art you've made with eyes in it. Any medium, any format, as long as you made it yourself primarily by hand. Here's my entry, "Abstract Eye #1" Watercolor on paper.

I concur! No doom scrolling today. It helps that we have gorgeous Spring weather! 🙌

To all of you generous creatives, sharing your art here on Bluesky, you are keeping my heart afloat every dark day right now! THANK YOU!

Here is my latest watercolor in case it helps you cope.

Wonderful color and reflections in this painting! It’s so vibrant.

Ditto!

Update on my current watercolor. The process is helping me cope.

Beautiful reflections. I’ve always had trouble painting these.

Wayne Thiebaud would approve!

And yet, you made some yummy! 🙌

It definitely reads like waves lapping on a beach. It is very subtle and delicate. A wonderful surprise on a day when you weren’t feeling in the creative zone!

Obviously that was meant to be the word “contrast“.

Amazing texture!

The gold is a lovely contras.

I am having a VERY intense personal week, in addition to the world insanity, but a new watercolor is started at least. Drawing/painting is helping me stay functional. I know my fellow artists understand. BIG SIGH!

I want to live long enough...to see him pay for every horrible thing he's done. I don't care how, what form it takes, where it occurs is immaterial but pay he must. Not one single redeeming quality, this guy, none.

I desperately wish I could drink right now, FFS! I was just about to go to bed when the news broke about Iran. How can I sleep NOW??? Can't drink, causes arrhythmia.

A "pre-emptive' strike against a sovereign nation is an overt act of war. Israel and The US just declared war against Iran, without legal justification. Trump and Netanyahu just put every lifeform on earth in immediate danger of nuclear annihilation. It's MONSTROUS! #iran #israel #usa #war

Oh yes! Are you in the East Bay?

Today was difficult for many of you in the USA I'm sure. There's a lot of poop in the air. Instead of doomscrolling, I spent the afternoon uploading listings for Giclée prints of my watercolors. ITake a peak, tell me what you think:

I love these. Is it a single painting with a grid of multiple images or is each fin it's own canvas? Is it oil?

I use it as a kind of website for friends and family. When I have a new mosaic, or painting, I upload to Etsy the post on my various socials with the Etsy link rather than a direct photo of the piece. This has led to several sales but in a non pushy way.

I have been using Etsy for eight years. I sell pretty slowly but not trying to live off the sales. I am preparing to sell giclee prints of my watercolors soon. We’ll see if they get any interest.

Delicious color work!
