Celebrating the creativity in life. Design and functionality warm my heart. I sketch and I build things that inspire me. I'm also a pioneering Internet broadcaster who still has a voice, and uses it.

Cold, rainy pipe day.

[revelstokejim]

My continuing barista series. The people who make my coffee.

The sun setting in Revelstoke

Another Starbucks drawing. She likes making my coffee but she likes Chucky more.

[revelstokejim]

Haven’t drawn since the pandemic. Slowly getting back to it.

[revelstokejim]

Sitting on the porch. Cold weather be damned.

[revelstokejim]

Reading, listening to jazz, trying to enjoy the 15th month of the year.

[revelstokejim]

Bad Company - 7 years ago on The Tonight Show. Paul Rodgers vocally sounds almost better now.

[revelstokejim]

31 days of being in the house. I’m miserable and it shows. Creativity has fled.

[revelstokejim]

The neverending Winter. I guess Spring will never happen.

For the record, I love multicolored lights and white lights, libraries and bookstores, and tea cups and mugs. They’re probably the ones I spent the most time on, lol.

Who can I tag…???

@factfiction I see you in my notes. And @plantdaddy-92, @otterobsession. There are more but I’m mentally very blank atm. @revelstokejim played along last time. I dont normally interact, even after 2 years on here, so if you wanna play along go ahead and tag me at the top if you wanna say hi even we’ve never said hi before

[revelstokejim]

I was tagged by @confusedinthetardis , thanks for adding me.

I had this puzzle when I was a kid. Still an amazing image.

[gui1ttripping]

Alright.

Everyone,

And I mean EVERYONE

who sees this post has to reblog it with something they love about themselves and tag at least one other person. I’m tired of the self-negativity, myself included, so let’s try to spread some positivity, ok?

One thing I love about myself is my artistic abilities.

I love my writing skills!

[alansparkshark]

Hmmmm…

I like that I just can’t be put down mentally even by my own thoughts. Like I’m a realist with pessimistic tendencies when it comes to the world as a whole, but when it comes to how it affects me - I’m an immovable object.

What about y'all, @laserdog10 @draksavior34 @razorblade180 ?

[razorblade180]

I like how dependable I am and that I like to see the good people. Some people think it might be a little naive but why wouldn’t you want to do good for goodness sake?

@soldieroflandb @ira-smiling @smh0217 @darksaiyangoku

[smh0217]

I like to think I am dependable whenever someone needs me.

I love that I make it an effort to see the bright side of things and to never judge people on the outside.

I love how far I’ve come with my artistic abilities and that I try to see the best in people

[prime-edits]

I’m gonna get sappy, and say that my friends, including Pilot, have made me appreciate my self more, their constant support has helped pull me out of many slumps, and have been a constant in my life, I enjoy them immensely and probably wouldn’t be the way I am today, insanity included because sometimes it’s like herding cats with you guys. Anyways, you have taught me to appreciate not only my work that I do, but my self as well, your support helped me on my journey on better health and I can’t think I’d be here with out y’all. @theavalanche65 @yang-lie-ren @dicknouget @inaudiablescreechoflove @phoenixfeather-ms

[nix-nihili]

Wow, putting me on the spot I see. Took me 20 minutes to think up of something. And then this my thrid reblog because the tags weren’t working. So, one thing I like about myself is my memory. Helps me pass test, and keep track of a whole load of birthdays. Also, my head fills up with the most random facts. @imcravingpizzza​ @rueleaf-art​ @rozanime​ @theavalanche65​ @yang-lie-ren​ @teethhunter​ @deboo08​ 

[rueleaf-art]

Thanks a lot Nix, now I have to do this too hahaha XD

Well, recently I realized that I love to give advice and tips to others about things I’ve already learned and experienced (especially about art topics I’m confident with, if I know something that I struggled with before Im always happy to help others that ask me about the same problem). And I feel good when people I’ve given advice to tell me it was useful.

This was actually really nice to think about! I didn’t feel sad or anything before but I feel happier now :D

I like that I want to change myself, and become better than who I was, improve myself however I can.

[confusedinthetardis]

Um, awkward but ok ……. it’s kinda 2 things but it’s all 1 thing ……

I like that I am always trying to do better and that I never quit moving forward.

Now the awkward part, who the heck do I tag ????

Just picking at random @revelstokejim cause I miss my home town a whole lot but not enough to move back.

[revelstokejim]

I appreciate being included. It took me awhile to think about this. The two things that come to mind are, 1) my voice. It’s taken 57 years , but I believe I sound better than I ever have. 2) my ability to tell a story and connect with people. Through podcasts, stories, videos, photographs, art, etc...there is nothing like the pleasure of knowing you’ve connected with someone.

As for tagging someone, I’m unable to do so. I’m pretty isolated on tumblr. Don’t connect with many folks.

I’m the age I am. That’s fine with me.

[revelstokejim]

Yes, I live in a weird town.
