I recently used the word dreamt in a poem - after a small pause I carried on writing wondering if it was still in current usage !

Is that flamingo sitting standing up or flying if so the measurements would change
This need qualifying please

No - just plain NO

I am reposting because I am still thinking about this dream #write

Wonderful thanks for posting x

Yes the collective colour is that of a bluebell wood xxx lovely

This is a photograph of 4 greeting cards with a Bluebell design. They are reproduced from a linocut which is carved in white and printed with different coloured backgrounds in blues, purple and green. They are on a table with wildflowers including cow parsley, campion, forget-me-nots and, of course, bluebells.

I saw my first Bluebell yesterday!
This morning I'm printing some cards 💙💚

“Shield Maidens”, 12x12 inch acrylic on wood panel. Appalled by the war. These three took many layers to reveal their comforting message. May we be the “warriors” that end this. Just finished and listed on my website. www.jeanietomanek.com/new-products...

A Co Cork sampler: 'Isabella Pue worked this sampler at Mrs Lawlers School Youghall in the Tenth Year of her Age August Fourteenth 1815'

There’s horrid situation where (usually) a male head of a family will commit suicide after killing the rest of his family
Is there similar behaviour being played out ?
Extreme stress leads to gross destruction
When the stress (files) means certain imprisonment lashing out worldwide is the result ?

Pause for a moment, and read....

Fed up no one should have both raging #tinnitus And an #ear-worm

Shutters would be good splitting in the middle horizontally folding into the floor and also the roof
It would make get a child into a car seat so much easier

The painting "Night in the Steppe" shows a vast plain under a bright full moon, the light being distributed over the landscape and the water in an almost magical way.

This work is made by the renowned Ukrainian artist Ivan Marchuk, who invented the unique painting style called "plyontanism" (from the Ukrainian word plyontaty, meaning "to braid"). This technique consists of hundreds of fine, intertwined lines that create depth and an almost textile-like texture.

Ah that is good I can understand now x

I recently had both eyes treated with replacement lens due to cataracts
I now see with the clear colour vision of a child
The previous yellow tinge was gone
It has made me doubt all colour truth now !
As an artist this is worrying and all I have left are my instincts !

📣 NEW! I’ve just released the BIGGEST and perhaps most creative project I’ve ever worked on!

“Searching for Birds” searchingforbirds.visualcinnamon.com 🐤

A project, an article, an exploration that dives into the data that connects humans with birds, by looking at how we search for birds.

Four years ago I woke up at 5 am from distant explosions. I asked my boyfriend if he heard them too, he said he didn’t and I should go back to sleep. I tried to calm myself down, went on the internet, it was silent, no news or explanations.
