Charles Heppner “hold on” 6 7/8” x 5 7/8” x 3 7/8” cigar box, oil on burlap, wood, acrylic paint, archival ink-jet prints, glass, brass nails. 2021 Little Bay de Noc in its frozen state offers a sublime horizon line. An abstract oil on burlap painting challenges and heightens the quiet. #charlesheppner #sanctumboxes #oilonburlap #visitescanaba #littlebaydenoc #abstractart #horizonline #frozenlake #contemporaryart (at Stonington, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSzKnIxM1F9/?utm_medium=tumblr
Charles Heppner “learn hope” 5 1/2” x 6 1/4” x 3 3/4” cigar box, encaustic, wood, acrylic paint, archival ink-jet prints, glass, brass nails. 2021 The photograph in this work was taken on a morning bird watching walk at Portage Point in Escanaba MI. The perseverance to live of the willow tree is beautiful. #charlesheppner #sanctumboxes #willowtree #lakemichigan #escanaba #upperpeninsula #visitescanaba (at Escanaba, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSw9H40FEp3/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today in Austin. The studio. This is page six of “Look, Extend, To Be”, A book of 24 visual aesthetic verses. Volume III. I completed Volumes I and II in 2015, 2016 respectively. I have been thinking a lot of the next 2 Volumes which had started awhile back. But now is the time to make these next two. The print in on 13”x19” Hahnemühle Photo Rag paper. The body of work consists of two photographs flanking a scan of a watercolor painting. All images come from my commitment to daily creative work. #charlesheppner #watercolorpainting #dailyphotography #commitment #studio #hahnemühle #epson (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSm5CJpFIf7/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today in Austin. A queen butterfly caterpillar happily holding itself on the shady side a milkweed leaf. Tragically, moments later as I brought one of my children to see this beauty it was being consumed by a paper wasp. So the cycle but sadness nonetheless. #charlesheppner #queenbutterfly #guineapaperwasp #cycleoflife #milkweed #butterfly #macrophotography (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSe1d5SFr3y/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today in Austin. I’d love to introduce our the newest member of our family, Trixie! She’s a mix of Australian Cattle Dog and Basenji just over a year old. Very very cute. Thank you to the people of SNIPSA for their guidance and care in assisting me in finding this great dog! #charlesheppner #basenjimix #australiancattledogmix #newdog @snipsatx #snipsa https://www.instagram.com/p/CSaQNdsFRu4/?utm_medium=tumblr
Today in Austin. A giant swallowtail stopped by to nosh on some lantana nectar. While it is great to see the occasional butterfly, I know the numbers are way down. #charlesheppner #giantswallowtail #lantana #butterfly #climatecrisis #climatechange #climatechangeisreal (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSUcaWZl8y_/?utm_medium=tumblr
Today in Austin. “Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.” ― Rachel Carson, The Sense of Wonder “The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction.” ― Rachel Carson These two quotes by the amazing Rachel Carson occupy my mind as I go through my daily interactions with the outdoors, more specifically my yard and the gardens. #charlesheppner #butterfly #gulffritillary #rachelcarson #nature https://www.instagram.com/p/CSP-8UZlt5-/?utm_medium=tumblr
Today in Austin. I have seen Question Mark Butterflies flitting around the yard for awhile now but had yet to photograph it with its wing spread. Today this, very beat up, but no less beautiful butterfly allowed me to photograph it. #charlesheppner #questionmarkbutterfly #butterfly (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSIaGOalE56/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today on a CTA bus. I love public transportation. Here in my beloved hometown of Chicago I had a very nice commute. This man’s beautiful hand gracefully relaxed captured my eye. #blackandwhitephotography #hand #publictransportation #cta #bus #charlesheppner (at Chicago, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRsmux0Fznw/?utm_medium=tumblr
