While standing out in the backyard enjoying the evening breeze, I saw the Orion constellation just above my roof line. Wondered if any of the stars would show up if I took a photo with my phone. Looks much better than I thought it would! No filter or adjustments, 3 second exposure because that’s what the app had as default. 🌌 #photostr #stars #constellation

Beautiful photography in a lovely calendar format. Postcards also for sale for sats if you check his other notes. #photostr #artstr #grownostr #v4v #forsale #sats View quoted note →

Made some progress on my #2026calendarchallenge art: researched vintage images that express my idea and feelings for February of starting and planning, getting back to work after hibernating in January. After cleaning up the images, I print them on copy paper. Then I use liquid and soft acrylic paint to give them an aged book look. The darker splots are alcohol ink from my Copic marker refill. Also reposting @existing sprinkles note that has helpful prompts and info if you’d like to join her art challenge. #artstr #art #artprocess #artchallenge #mixedmedia #vintage #rustypuppyart View quoted note →

GM! Saw two red tailed hawks taking a leisurely soar this morning while having my morning tea on the back patio. We’ve got a cold front coming through, so enjoying the tshirt weather while it lasts. #birdstr #hawk #photostr

Finished watching Romantics Anonymous, a Japanese/Korean show on Netflix. It’s more soft romance than comedy, and comes to a good, solid end with 2 heartfelt twists. I had to look up info about the last scene because it felt like something obvious… which it is if you know current celebrity Korean and Japanese actors when they show up for cameos. 😅 #filmstr #jdrama #netflix

At the beginning of the year, I could barely walk half a mile before the pain in my right foot became too much. Just finished a month of walking almost 2 miles/day. 🎉 This month, I increase my step count by 500 steps to 4,500 steps/day. Final goal is 10,000 steps/day by December 2026 for our trip to Disney World. 🐭🏰 #proofofwalk #exercise #fitnessover50

Cleaned up my main art desk and laid out the supplies to continue working on my calendar art for @existing sprinkles art challenge. 🎉 I’ve given up getting 11 more done in time to print a calendar, but I discovered the art boards I’m using as a substrate will fit in the card holders I have (second photo), so I’ll use these to display the art each month instead of a printed calendar hanging on my wall. 🎉 And for those of you looking for a different November art challenge, there’s #huevember 🎨🗓️ #2026calendarchallenge #artstr #artchallenge #artprocess #mixedmedia #rustypuppyart View quoted note →

GM, Happy November! 🍁

This why artists swatch all things, all the time. 😑 Crayola Washables Pip-squeak Skinnies: Raw Sienna was a darker, less orange hue a few years ago. 🤦 And their character looked less psycho. 👀 #artstr #color #sigh

Settling in for a quiet night at home watching our Halloween-theme movie. Also, I now have a cute ghost warmie. #halloween #mcu #ghost
