I’m done here. I’m not supporting this platform unless and until it is no longer under the control of that petulant, fascist-platforming, egotistical, misogynistic, hateful man-baby. I’m on Threads and Instagram as @ sonyaseattle.
Just a chipper little hipster chickadee, ready for spring but still fighting the chill. Acrylics on wood panel, 4x4"

A recently unearthed portrait of Miss Petunia, Her Grace the Duchess of Calico, the great-great-great-great-aunt of my cat.
(Actually, acrylics on canvas, 10 x 10)

Finally finished this springtime lady (now where is *actual* spring??). I don’t paint as much in acrylics as watercolor, but I’m starting to feel more confident with them now.

Every year, when the nights were the longest, he came. He only stayed a short time, but during those moments, we all remembered that the light would return someday.

@Kelpmaiden IMO it means Mastadon is too cryptic and hard to use to ever replace Twitter. Personally I've got my eyes on https://t.co/5xeDEKLGxE - there's a waiting list but it moves fast. It's everything Twitter should be.
So a while back, I had an AI program generate some fake pulp sci-fi paperback covers; the prompt was "1970s pulp fiction paperback cover of a squirrel in a spacesuit orbiting earth." The results were fun, but I decided I wanted to see if I, a non-computer human, could do better.
So this is my attempt. I changed it from a squirrel to an opossum, because I didn't see how a squirrel's tail could work in a space suit. Too fluffy. Here's the result! The painting is gouache on black matte acrylic, and with a little Photoshop help I made a new story.
