Since folks are celebrating Bluesky's longer video capabilities with this particular clip, I'd highly recommend you read @ashleyspencer.bsky.social's glorious & delightful oral history of Tom Holland's "Lip Sync Battle" performance www.businessinsider.com/tom-holland-...

Today's watercolor I did in a workshop with Birgit O'Connor. Overall pleased. I could work on a few more things but I might just do it over again to practice the techniques. A bit of a departure for me since I like working more loose #watercolor #art

Finally framed and mounted the two "garden" cross stitch projects. The mud room is getting kind of chaotic but I love it 🙂 #crossstitch #gallerywall #fiberart

I painted this watercolor of Oia, Santorini a few weeks ago and finally had a chance to take a proper photo of it. Not sure why I haven't painted much of Greece yet. I definitely have enough reference images 😄 #watercolor #greece #santorini #art

Challenging myself to sketch every day - doing more illustration so I don't have the pressure of realism. Today's prompt was "treehouse" from a set of ideas/videos from Mike Lowery. Also a nice was to use up some watercolor palette "dirt". #sketchbook #illustration #ink #watercolor

Just finished - highly recommend #booksky Short and simple but its simplicity is powerful for understanding composition and storytelling within a picture. The simple paper-cutout illustrations help convey the concepts well. I'll be returning to this often in my work. bookshop.org/a/105516/978...

Starting another weaving - this one is going to be wider and shorter #weaving I can't take credit for the technique - from an old Crafter's Box workshop that I finally got around to doing 🙂

Finally finished this root vegetable cross-stitch. Been debating where to put it in the house and how to frame it along with the tomato one I did a few years ago. I'm thinking the mud room where I have seeds and garden gloves. #crossstitch

Huh, look at that. I have been posting on Instagram for almost ten years with close to 2500 followers. I have been posting on Bluesky for three weeks with about 500 followers. Compare the results on equivalent posts. Unless you're making videos or are awesome, Instagram is a total dead end. #art
