“Molting / angel vii”

Mutated this swan and it got reaaal long and many wing-ed

I would like to express my sincere thanks to the group of swan enthusiasts whose labeled pictures of swans made me giggle while I researched, your dedication to proper feather nomenclature is appreciated

#this swan may be mold colored but at the end of the day you recognize it’s white #you’re gonna look me in the eye and tell me she’s Green? HER SISTER WAS A WITCH! of course she’s green #swan #painting #bird painting #does this count as Fasciation #gouache painting #bird art

“Cobweb”

Roots of the red flowering highway tree (they invade my garden) some stripped of bark to be bones white strung with beads

A dewy spiders daydream?

#adorning roots with jewels as they deserve #I need more windows for these #spiderweb #sculpture #glass beads #beading #root system #roots

“Morphos”

An unerring certainty that as you watch a butterfly drop and dry from its chrysalis, it watches you back…

Consider this a sort of drop down menu on the business proceedings of butterflies as well as their athleticism

#lots of fun making shades of chocolate raspberry brown and such #I can’t figure out how to explain the small different in my head between morpho’s and Morphos sound wise…#painting #gouache painting #gouache #butterfly #blue morpho #chrysalis #insects #butterfly painting

Come take a gander at my goose (haha)

I was watching a video of Turkish women holding the geese they've bred their whole lives as a source of income and kinda got lost in the imagery of a goose on a bright red Persian rug

The rugs my own creation but I was looking at the shapes and borders and colors of actual ones

the black is a deep blue but the red makes cameras angry so it's hard to see

#a Turkish goose on a Persian rug is a Persian goose yes?#that shade of red eats me alive #screenprinting #printmaking #goose #bird art #print #screen printing

Linocut portrait of my ex sleeping

“Lovers/Wilt”

Ah, how sad, the creeping rot of a soul, who has lost her sense of reality, to a lover (wilted beau) who isn’t who she seeketh so (Psyche doth thou cradle this looming floral bloom, as if your lover Eros, who fate has woven from the loom)

Big linoleum diptychs - about 30” by 40” inches - mmmm scratchy eraser lines

#my lover is more of a bed slug snzzzzing away #but it’s beautifully tragic to love something dead and gone #sunflowers #eros and psyche #linocut #linoprint #printmaking #linoleum #diptych
