Bluebird house from the morning mountain walk. I really like the pen ink on top of watercolors look. 🎨🖊️ #artstr #watercolor

Finally! A photo of one of the hummingbirds that flies around my mom’s backyard. 🎉😮‍💨 #birdstr

The citadel mixed media art for March is particularly fine. 😬 🖌️🎨🧑‍🎨🏰 #artstr #v4v #calendar View quoted note →

My sister sent my mom a bouquet from a local nursery for Mother’s Day. It’s an amazing mix of what you’d expect with wildflowers and things I didn’t know existed. Really special arrangement that my mom enjoyed tremendously. 💐 #blooming #flowerstr

In case you ever need it, “PFFT” is a legit Scrabble word. #gamestr #nowyouknow #knowingishalfthebattle

Happy Mother’s Day!!! Mama Hummingbird reference photo by @Noshole #artstr #watercolor #birdstr

Finished the last Brambley Hedge puzzle, Winter Story. 1000 pieces, but so detailed you can pick up almost any piece and find where it goes. 🐭🧩 #familytime #puzzle

New month, so I added 500 steps to my daily walk, bringing the total to 7,500 steps/day, so about 3.3 miles/5.2 km. And for some reason, it’s an interesting target to hit. I’ll go way over, then need a rest day because my right foot aches. I’m trying to even out this week and be less volatile. 🧡 #proofofwalk #fitnessover50

Photographing my watercolor art, making it monochrome, then adding more layers until I get a better range of values (light -> dark). Worked on the bottom little cabin boat. Images 1-3 show the value progression. 4 is the color version of Monochrome 1. 5 is the final color (Monochrome 3). #artstr #watercolor

Tour of my mom’s garden planters. Lots of good stuff on the way: strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, potatoes, and tomatoes. #garden #foodstr

The magnolia tree flowers are gone, but the lilacs and dogwoods are filling the space with color and scent. #treestr #blooming

Once of the books I brought home from the art gallery is The Zen of Seeing, hand-written and illustrated by Frederick Franck. It was published in 1973, before social media, in the same year the first mobile phone by Motorola was introduced. This page is still valid. #artstr #meditation #drawing
