Clusters of bright yellow goldenrod flowers sit among green foliage.

Bright yellow clusters,
galaxies of golden sun
ripe for the picking
along the path
on my morning walk.

Green frog and puffin, air of spirited unreality, vibrant ink drawing

Alone puffin dark and melancholy ink

Red monkey and very strange bird, more exploratory, piecemeal ink

Cricket, straightforward but expressive in green and brown

Pfffffrp (wind instrument sound)

I have added four ink drawings to my shop! They are interesting and not boring! If you share this that will help me! 🖼️ #art #blueskyart #humanart

I reach out
to pull you close
but what connects us
is a fiber optic thread
across a distance flesh
cannot traverse.

A rectangular box is attached to a 4 by 4 post on a hill. It is surrounded by flowers and there are trees in the background. The bat box is a thin box with a slit in the lower third of the box (for air).

FREE RENT to any and all bats!

The bat box is done. Bats are frequent visitors to our backyard in the evening. We love seeing them and having them gobble us mosquitos.

ALL BATS WELCOME!

Two negatives equals and big positive (and black cats are awesome)

And this one is a bit darker:

Diamine Red Dragon Ink - 30 ml Bottle

Red inks tend to be orange to pink. I love Pilot bottled in but for a redder red I’d suggest:

Jacques Herbin Rouge Hématite Ink (Scarlet Red) - 1670 Anniversary - 50 ml Bottle

Thank you!

Thanks. A good squabble

A silky white swamp mallow, or wild hibiscus, with a crimson center.

Pure, white, silken
beacons, crimson-stained
offerings of hope
in the morning mist.
Hibiscus mosheutos,
wild and sublime,
the swamp mallow
marks this boggy way.
Oh, that you could light
all our shrouded paths.
