Mother Jones

The image shows 2 pictures of a brown and black dog. The text mentions a $200 dollar reward for the return of the dog who is named Bambi. The dog was stolen by people who are from LA or North LA. Bambi is friendly and very missed, there will be no questions asked upon her return. You can call 442-499-2070 or email helpmefindbambi@gmail.com if you have any information about her.

A very sweet person I follow on youtube has lost their best friend. Bambi was stolen from them while they were in the ER, If anyone could share this in hopes of getting Bambi found It would be very appreciated.
You may also give their youtube channel "Nova Black" a look for more info.

Anyone who has some time, go check out "Wick'd Confections" on youtube. Shes doing a really great food history series at the moment!

The past few years I've found it hard to make enough art, 2025 was the worst for me so far. And as we are moving through 2026, I dont see that improving. I find myself too depressed by daily goings-on, and now we grieve as a country for a man many of us did not know. Rest in peace Alex.

Two eruopean robins sit on a pear tree branch. Behind them is some scrapbook paper depicting an old map of the world.

I realize I never posted these little guys, some stylized european robins. These were made earlier in 2025. I painted them with gouache on some scrapbooking paper.

A sketch of a Bob cat and American crow, the crow sits upon a broken stump and is roughly at the same height of the Bob cat. Behind them is a forest.

A work in progress, these are some characters of mine. They are part of a story I have been working on! #watercolor #animalart #crow #bobcat #natureart

Another acrylic painting, this one is of my grandmother's dog Nugget. #animalart #art #acrylicpaint #dog

A Northern nut cracker bird stands in front of some cone shaped blue flowers.

Finished up this guy, I havent used pencils like this in years and I'm afraid it shows, I could've done better. But im happy to have him finished!

The real Zone of Death YouTube video by Yuval Ben-Hayun

I was not aware of the zone of death and am frankly appalled, I urge anyone who has the time to check out this video. The ability to get away with murder just because the victim is indigenous should not be possible.

An orange and white cat lays across long ways on a womans legs, the cats head rests on her stomach.

Im doing some work on the deer painting! I dont have any new pics (and am at work) so i'll share a picture of my little baby, Chunky.

Tonight, I'd like to take a moment to point out a glaring issue in this country. The restriction of books for prisoners.
Denying people access to education and a comforting pass time is wrong. Requiring people to pay to read in prison is wrong. please support the prisoners literature project.

purple Sampson's snake root flowers, drawn with colored pencil are shown.

A little peak at some flowers in the background of my newest work. Can't wait until this is finished.

If you are confident that a boat near Venezuela is carrying drugs, you stop it and board it. That way, you have evidence.

If you don't really care if a boat near Venezuela is carrying drugs, but you just want to kill people, you blow the boat up. That way, the irrelevant evidence is gone.

I love this little cat so much

A piebald doe floats, she is surrounded by a swirl of leaves, feathers, and sparkles. Above her, to the left, and behind her head is a crow. Another crow flies (also to the left) near her rear hip and covers some of her midsection.

I really pushed and got this drawing done today! I also got my printer out of storage so I can scan my work instead of trying to get good lighting.

Thank you! I occasionally take commissions but I am not doing so currently.

A watercolor portraits of a black pit bull dog.

I wanted to post this old watercolor portraits from a 2 years ago now, I feel Ive improved a lot since this time.

An unfinished gouache painting of two bucks framed by two large trees.

I am also still working on my boys, I haven't done a lot as I'm very excited about other art. They will come along slowly as I work on other art.

A piebald doe floats in the center of the drawing, she is surrounded by a swirl of leaves, sparkles, and feathers. Behind her head there is a crow, another crow is flying parallel to her blocking a bit of her midsection from view.

Hello! Ive been inactive, as is typical for me, but I wanted to stop in with an update. For the past year I've been dreaming up a story and finally feel up to tackling it. So, I will do my best to upload some art about the story. Ive included a sneak peak of some story art.

I'm considering the same thing, I've only made one sale as it is and would probably benefit from moving to a different platform.

Why are folks mad at the working mom with kids on Medicaid and SNAP rather than companies like Walmart that refuse to pay her a living wage and provide health insurance?

I do so adore nature, but that tends to make me more sad at this point. Last night, I took a walk and saw hundreds of fireflies. I thought "How do other people just not see this" because it's so lovely and I just can't fathom ignoring it.

I think you did a wonderful job! Especially on the water, that's something I struggle with greatly.

He hungy

The image shows an unfinished painting of two young bucks rubbing muzzles, two trees loom overhead framing the animals.
