I knew it was, but it took the quake sites a few minutes to update, so I was a bit flummoxed. Glad I'm not losing it!

Happy to be participating in the @12x12challenge.bsky.social again this year! I've just written my first (really rough) draft for January, and it feels good to flex my writing muscles again after a months-long hiatus. Hooray for inspirations!

colored pencil drawing of cat

Here's a pet portrait of Sarah, a sweet senior cat who lives with my friend Jo. Sarah is a reserved and observant, but loves a snuggle. I used colored pencil and graphite for her, and I really like bringing color into their images.

Hello Bluesky people! I'm just getting going over here. I'm an aspiring illustrator (creating pet portraits, illustrating kid's books) and children's book author, nature lover and passionate about human beings being human. I look forward to getting to know some wonderful people here.

I prefer upper 50s to 60 - I compromise with my partner at around 63.

He was a real inspiration. Now I have to go and look at all his old works again.
