If you need a break from doomscrolling, give #bloomscrolling a try. One down, 6 more to add #insects to and 1 of 2 spring shows are wrapped. #art #botanicalart #sciart #floralart #painting #dahlia

Balancing a lot of projects but this one has finally reached the final stages and I couldn't be more excited. My goodness these prints are so gorgeous. Can't wait to start sending them out into the world. #art #botanicalart #skullart #sciart #floralpainting #artprintsThis

Officially finished the painting portion of one of the two spring shows I’m in. Next up, insects. Also, here’s a great golf day tracker for you know who that’s too good not to share. trumpgolftrack.com?fbclid=IwZXh... #art #floralart #flowers #sciart #botanicalart @bsky.art #botanicalart #painting

I’ve been painting a lot of white #flowers the past few weeks, trying to carve out a little hope. #art #botanicalart #painting #sciart #oilpainting #bloomscrolling @bsky.art

Something light in your feed to fill in between all the darkness. P.s. Forgot how much I dislike working on acrylic gesso. Trying to use up some panels I’ve had lying around. #art #floralart #botanicalart #flowers #dahlia #sciart #painting

Watching the snow, dreaming of dahlias. Another one drying, awaiting its insects. This is a waterlily #dahlia. I can’t remember the name, got them at a local farm. #botanicalart #flowers #floralpainting #sciart #bloomscrolling #painting #art

Buckle up. I’m gonna rant. This is making the rounds amongst representational artists and for good reason. While there are some inaccuracies about the Art Renewal Center it is a disturbing and infuriating trend. 🧵 1/7 youtu.be/_nEkGCRW5uk?... #art #sciart #painting

We’re about 1.5 months away from the emergence of spring #flowers… a little glimmer of joy we will all need. Finding joy painting these #dahlias (despite major anxiety inside about all that’s happening). #art #botanicalart #sciart #bloomscrooling #februarty

Nearly 4,000 people have signed an open letter calling on Christie’s New York to cancel an upcoming sale dedicated solely to art created with artificial intelligence, over concerns that the works exploit human artists.
