Over the last week, I've gotten all too familiar with my new constant companions, RA & Fibro. They can be so mean ... Thanks to them, I missed a few #FebruARTy days, but I'm happy to be back for #turquoise. A shiny classic Mandelbrot made using Frax. #Fractal #FractalArt #FractalFriday #ArtYear

"The Things We Have To Say" 24x30 inch acrylic on canvas #painting #ArtYear #art #artist #artistsonbluesky #februArty #abstractart #turquoise

For #februArty #turquoise - a closeup of a feather inspired by the Steller’s jay I made from embroidered watercolor. Currently displayed at the PNW Quilt and Fiber Arts Museum! They’re one of my favorite birds to see so I had to include them in my #corvid project 🪶

#Februarty Day 20: Turquoise

#FishyFeb theme for today is Deep Sea. Great White Shark (app 18x36" on paper) in watercolour and a Great Hammerhead Shark (8x10" stretched canvas) in acrylics. #FebruARTy #Art #Artist #ArtShow #FebArt #BskyArt #ArtYear #FishArt #SciArt #Sharks #NatureArt @bsky.art

#FebruARTy #FishyFeb Deep Sea

Beach sunset is as close as I get to #turquoise. From my archives stretching the limits of a point and shoot camera zoom. #februARTy

Posting a day late...the #Februarty prompt was #turquoise, and I almost forgot that I had gone through a wire-wrapping hyperfixation.

Today #FebruArty & #FishyFeb meet with ‘deep sea’ as a prompt. So here’s an angler fish! 🐡🦑

Day 21 #Februarty #FishyFeb m Meet Wavey Davey 🐙 Yesterday I taught myself to draw an octopus - then did a light acrylic washing. #artyear #octopus

Yesterday’s post is today’s too! Now back to work 😅 #FebruArty #FishyFeb #deepsea #repost

#FebruARTy #FishyFeb #Deepsea An appropriate repost of a favorite - traditional ink drawing 😃 This one's in my new online store too (link in my bio), my very first order included two prints of this 🐋 which made me very happy 😁 #drawing #smallcreator #sciart #ink #sketch #art #blackandwhite

#Februarty #Artyear free choice 😁 This one's been on the wall in my own home for some time now. Small drawing colored with lots of different things, inks and paint and metallics #Abstract #Surrealism #drawing #artsky

#FebruArty Day 17 #SensoryArt = #Rough The Only Two People Left In The World - 2023, watercolour and ink on paper ***Meaning behind this very personal painting of my sister & dad in the ALT text. This is definitely a pain-ting. As rough as it gets. The first watercolour I'd done in years.

Time is moving so fast! I almost missed today’s theme… #FebruARTY #SensoryArt, Day 17 #Rough I guess it could be a rough version of a winter abstracted frozen lake I’m working on… #wip #artstudio #winter #frozen #imbolic #art #artlovers #nature #abstract

Happy #MountainMonday My favourite secret lake to go fishing... 🥰 #photography #nature #Rough #SensoryArt #FebruArty

#FebruArty #SensoryArt Day 17: Rough Rough sketch & watercolor practice from a year or so ago. Silvery spider webs on goldenrod & grass stems.

A day late for #FebruARTy "Big and Small," but I was too wiped out yesterday. I usually do miniatures, so here’s something oversized—my cheeseburger ottoman! It opens for storage, the cheese is a blanket, and my cat has fully claimed it. #ArtFurniture #CozyHome #FunctionalArt #BurgerLife

#sensoryart for #februARTY today. This painting is created with #acrylicpaint and very #tactile #fabricscraps that have been #upcycled from quilting garbage! It’s a #portrait of Taylor and it’s 20” x 16” #llglickman_artist #canadianartist

#Blueskyartshow #Februarty #Monochrome Here's an abstract I completed in a recent live demo. I like it a lot! Single white pencil used. Prints are available in my ko-fi store! (Link in my bio) #drawing #abstract #surrealism #artforsale #smallcreator

I had put Slim away for a bit so I didn't get klown fatigue 😁 Busted a 3.5 hour live sesh with good results. I can feel the finish line now. #killerklowns #cultmovies #horror #comedy #80s #filmsky #artsky #colorpencil #drawing #sketch #learning #beginner #tiktok

Sassy and Trixie Love is all you need. 💗 Also howling and vanquishing invisible foes around the house at 3 am, that’s pretty cool, too. . #Februarty Day 14: Pair #watercolor #artyear

For #Februarty we have #pair today. I have a pair of #Koi fused to this luminescent glass disk. The fish were created by putting powder and fine glass in a fish mold. This was later slumped into a bowl. A gift for my father. #fusedglass #glassart #artyear #art #fish #OnlyBeautifulThings

#FebruARTy gives us #pair - how about my wood spirit and his very little brother? I'm not an experienced wood worker so doing both of these was very fun and challenging. #art #craft #wood #carving

Had a fun live drawing stream tonight following a quick tutorial in a familiar style 😎 About 2 hours 🦘 #art #drawing #illustration #ink #sketch #livestream #tiktok

#FebruARTy prompt #orange There are a lot of shades of orange in this painting, between the monarch butterfly and the flower blossom.🦋🏵️ #OriginalArt #ArtYear #ArtShare #FebruArty2025 #onlybeautifulthings #TraditionalArt #artofbsky #womensart #Art #Painting #AcrylicPainting @bsky.art
