I'm going to start my own hashtag... Or at least I think I am πŸ˜ƒ I'm not too Bluesky savvy.
I love to take photos of stairs and windows.... Does anyone else want to join me? πŸ€“

This first one is just my own cabin window... Stay Tuned for more from around the world.

I really hope and pray after today's court ruling my Student Loans in the SAVE plan will carry on as intended πŸ™ probably wishful thinking....

"The Heart"

I painted this in 2017 based on the Needtobreathe song The Heart.
It also combined some imagery from Song Of Solomon

Thanks. They are all over the beaches on the north Kenai Peninsula in Alaska.

I've actually found one in Racine Michigan - Lake Michigan.

There is a geological debate on what exactly the source is.

"Return"

Original Art By Me. Painted with acrylics in 2017 during the first Trump administration. As the State Of The Union will be addressed tonight I thought this one should be featured today. Part of Needtobreathe Collection.

"The Garden"

My interpretation of this Needtobreathe song was part of a 20 song/painting collection.
Acrylic On Canvas. 2017
*If you look closely enough she is holding a cup. My only regret is that it's pink and that makes that component confusing to some casual glances.

"Wildflowers"

In the meadow nearby
Wildflowers sway gently in time
Alone free from the world
They grow in their own revolution
Finding sunlight where others don't
Making bright what is dark
Bringing the fight to this day
They let the world know
Wildflowers are here to stay

This was my first up-close "portrait" painting.

Censored Art

Censored Art

My Needtobreathe Art Collection in 2019 was censored 🀐 the 20 paintings each based on a song got taken down.
The owner of the establishment, who watched me for hours climbing ladders and painstakingly hanging them, waited for me to leave and took them all down! "Not appropriate"

Thanks for the feedback!

I have loose ideas on where the characters could end up over about a five year period.

So, I do like your idea of both being a possibility πŸ™‚

Thoughts on writing an epilogue for an 80,000 word fiction book❓

Pros and cons?

Hate the idea or could embrace it?

I want to update the "aftermath" for the characters

πŸ’œPlease I'd love to hear from readers and writers πŸ’š
