Continuing to learn #embroidery 🪡 via cool people who share teaching videos on YouTube. I’ve tried to interpret my own painting of blueberry 🫐 barrens in Maine as an embroidered piece 🧵 I definitely learned a lot.
BIRDS FEED🪶 You know what time it is, it’s #SuperbOwlSunday!🦉 plz flood the feed with alllll the superb owls! Swifts are also welcome given the Taylor headlines (great idea @danodano.bsky.social) 😂
Plz remember to credit the photog/artist if you post a superb owl that isn’t your original work 💕
My Nana passed away in 2015. She was a marvelous quilter but amongst her things was a shoebox full of #embroidery floss. I decided to try this out and just finished my first beginner project. Only a few simple stitches but this seems to feed my need for art and precision. Thank you Nana 🥰 🧵 🪡
🤔 While organizing a year’s worth of sketch photos (I trade sketches daily with a friend) I realized that I have MANY pictures of my wee mouse 🐭 friend, Kringle MacKenzie ❤️ so I thought I’d share some in photo form and sketch form. 🦊 #DailySketch#mouse#art
Still organizing sketches from 2023 (I should learn to do this as time goes by instead of at the end of the year 🙄). Here is a gathering of some mammal sketches 🦊
I’m late to the party but this is the coolest beetle I have ever seen in Maine. A Burying beetle with gold parts! I didn’t even know they existed until I found two of them crawling around on my trash bin. #InverteFest
We're into our final two days of #InverteFest!
Thank you to everyone who has participated so far.
Keep sharing your observations, art, facts and everything else spineless. It all counts!
Please promote your own invertebrate creative work too.
For my final #ArtAdventCalendar post on day 24, I wanted to post my favorite painting from 2023–turns out that’s a harder choice than I thought! I’m going with “most deeply satisfying result”: UNSEEN PILLARS, probably my best pearlescent-on-black to date, and one I sold to a dear friend. 💜 #SciArt
A candid image from the Department of Gnomeland Security. (Because sometimes you just have to go with whatever pops into your head for a daily sketch idea.)

Saturday Sloth Sketch Share. Anyone else have sloth 🦥 content to share?
#mammals 🦊
I apologize that I don’t know who’s photo(s) I referenced for this, but I know they weren’t my own. Not to many sloths hanging out in New England 😁
