A group of Republicans is called a "Heil."

DEI made me wet the bed.

12 days until election day. Join us this weekend to spread the word to vote YES on Prop 1A to create $50M/year for publicly owned, permanently affordable, mixed-income social housing in Seattle.

Washington residents: You know what to do.

#ArtAdventCalendar Probably my last contribution for this year: Cranes, Port of Seattle. I've enjoyed seeing so much creativity here, not having to fight an algorithm to discover new things.

#ArtAdventCalendar Newest painting, calling it "3 Peaks." More of a work in Progress.

#ArtAdventCalendar Part of the construction/infrastructure series.

#artadventcalendar Day 17 "Douro" Watercolour, 42 x 26" 2015 (Sold, Private Collection) The Douro river in Porto sparkles at sunset with graceful rabelos afloat. For centuries Rabelos brought barrels of wine down from vineyards upriver for their transformation into port in riverside port houses.

Another oil on canvas panel painting I did during my 2023 residency. It’s hard to pick a favorite but this is one of them. #ArtAdventCalendar #pleinair #painting #art #humanartists #oilpainting #landscape

#ArtAdventCalendar More memories of summer.

#ArtAdventCalendar Some Japanese Maple fall color. Tried to do a bokeh effect in the background but it's not quite working the way I imagined.

#ArtAdventCalendar Tulip field, Skagit Valley

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 10, sort of a work in progress. I liked this particular corner, but the rest of it, not so much. Will be giving it another shot at some point, hopefully with more success.

This is... actually a fairly reasonable takeaway from this year.

A little plein air study in oils from is past October. #ArtAdventCalendar #art #oilpainting #pleinair #landscape #autumnleaves

#ArtAdventCalendar day 6. I really like painting old cars. #cadillac #watercolor #watercolorpainting

#ArtAdventCalendar ##ArtAdventCalendar day 9 #classiccar #watercolor #Plymouth. I enjoyed painting this classic car. I love how the rusty bumper looks like a desert landscape. I grew up in the Mojave desert, so I connected with it ❤️

Oops - I’ve obviously lost track with #ArtAdventCalendar and it is actually day 9. 😂 Anyway .. this is Barafundle Bay, Pembrokeshire, complete with crispy autumnal ferns and marram grass.

#ArtAdventCalendar Tug boat, Deception Pass Bridge

Day 8 is for Rest, a painting I imagined at a time when I was tired and craved some quiet solitude. Rest 24X36 acrylic on canvas #ArtAdventCalendar #Art

Day 8: #ArtAdventCalendar 'Into The Light.' Pencil, pastel, finished digitally. #birdart #sciart

I’ve missed a few days but here’s Day 8! (Posting on behalf of my dad.) #ArtAdventCalendar “Eagle” Watercolour and ink.

#ArtAdventCalendar Ferries will be a neverending source of inspiration for me; they're such an integral part of life here on the Salish Sea. Is the boat leaving, or arriving?

#ArtAdventCalendar Gothic Quarter, Barcelona. Getting ready for the Holidays.

I feel like I should start naming my artwork with poetic or smart sounding titles to be seen as "legitimate." I'm calling this one "Construction Site." #ArtAdventCalendar

#ArtAdventCalendar Fremont Bridge, Seattle.

#ArtAdventCalendar Quick study, Swinomish Channel, Washington State.
