Same painting, 3 ways. Top is an experiment I did last night. Middle, I switched the colors a bit and added some detail lines (which I ended up not liking). Third, I took the aspects I liked from each, went back to the original flower color and light detail on leaves. #watercolor

Did some zen fish with my watercolors today. Very relaxing. My lines are becoming more even.

Keeping my tree up until this nightmare is over

I saw this photo and thought "I could probably paint that"

Can't make it to the March in DC today? You can follow it here: apnews.com/live/peoples...

Check out the People’s March in Washington D.C. today. Definitely looks like the crowd for the protest will be BIGGER than his inauguration crowd!

I think one of the things that makes me a good special ed teacher is what I like to refer to as the Applesauce problem: a thread 🧵 #autism #actuallyautistic #adhd #neurodivergent #teaching

Some of my painting of late. They are not perfect but I can see myself getting better. There are lots of aspects that I like and am proud of. And there are specific, tangible ways I see that I can improve. I would like to do each of these again to compare.

I'm trying to wean myself from fb/instagram so every time I feel the urge to open the app I open Libby instead and read some of my library book

Today's painting. I finally got my hands on some cotton paper and it's such an upgrade!

“Ask me Offer me choices Always involve me in decision making Tell your family Tell your friends Tell the world Dignity of risk Dignity of risk starts with you But it ends with me.” From autistic speller Patrick Saunders: www.thestoryspeller.com/post/dignity... #autistic #neurodiversity

I started watercolor painting a couple months ago. My art isn't great, some of it isn't even good. But it brings me great joy. Don't be afraid to pick up a new hobby that brings you joy. It's all about the process.

The autistic joy of developing a new special interest 🥰

Bluesky has decided that I really love foxes. And you know what? Maybe I do
