I’m thinking of doing a July challenge for myself (but feel free to join) much like I did all June but more like a daily journal thing. Draw something I want to remember from that day. Maybe a page per week, and spread out over four pages in one theme.

June is nearing its end, and I enjoyed doing a small drawing every evening in bed. I’m planning on continuing in July, but am considering a theme of some description. Does anyone have a suggestion? #thirtydaysofjune

A pair of twin cherries, drawn in coloured pencil, lots of shades of red and purple.

Did you also pretend these were earrings? The best was if you found two twin cherries and had one for each ear! #cherries

I call him the orange convict.

As I’m not American, I have no opinion on states and voting because I know next to nothing about it.

My Royal Python Noodle, taking a nap on an open biscuit tin filled with art supplies.

I’ve been drawing a small thing every evening in bed for the month of June, I post them daily on my Cara account. But today Noodle joined me. Isn’t she sweet? #petsandartdupplies

Not op, but. At least the name that the artist uses themselves, and their @/handle/link in they have one. The other info is nice, but I’m an artist and I barely know the titles of my own works ór where they are, I wouldn’t expect others to know.

A green plastic glass house, with two beds for plants, a pile of stones that still need to be moved, a pot of strawberry plants, and an assortment of garden accoutrements.

The world is a scary place atm, and I don’t know how to fix any of it. So, I’ll plant an edible garden, and grow food. And in the evenings, I crochet for charity.

Congratulations!!

Not that I have found yet

A selfie, in my gardening clothes. A full apron, a head scarf, and a woollen jumper because it’s cold. I’m holding a tea mug, and I have chipmunk cheeks because I just stuffed a chocolate biscuit in my mouth. I dress a bit 1940s style.

I’m ready for the garden, but, is the garden ready for me? #gardening #butacupofteafirst #1940s #vintagestylenotvintagevalues

Oooh, this one is particularly lovely!

It’s cute!

😂😂😂😂

An extremely messy garden, full of junk, hardly room to walk, dead plants. The “before”

A slightly less messy garden. Room to walk past the green house, and you can see the stones again. The “after”

Before and after. Due to chronic pain the last year and a half nothing got done in the garden. Today was a good day, and I shifted some of it. Hopefully again tomorrow. #beforeandafter #garden #mess #junkyard

Two dice bags and a matching ipad bag in purple and variegated yarn. The largest dice bag had a red keychain in the shape of a 20 sided die.

AI is regurgitated art stolen from artists. There are plenty places where AI is good and useful, but not in art.

We all have our own ways. I think all are valid (except for ai)

I don’t even have a computer 😂😂😂. I use plant and flower dictionaries, animal books, etc etc. I like it better. Obviously I have a phone and ipad, but no computer, printer, etc

I do all, besides sell. I sew, knit, crochet xmas gifts, donate to two charities, and for myself and my home.

I hope you and the fuzzy baby have a good day too.

Beautiful painting! I love mums, and would have them year round.

I showed my husband @haka77.bsky.social and he said that this print would make an excellent cosy jigsaw puzzle. It’s lovely!

Nomnomnom! I tried giving my corn snakes a fish recently. It was hilarious and chaos. In the end our adult boa at it. That was also hilarious.

Same! Although, I don’t think I get tired of looking at snakes, at all 😄😄

This handsome lad is Ormr, our adult boa. I cleaned his enclosure and added another large branch, faux flowers, and two real plants. And I told him he is stunning and sweet. #boa #petsnake #tongueflicking #snakeloversofbluesky #enrichmentforsnakes #boaconstrictor #beauty #love #blelele

The blue dishcloth I referenced in the post about the red and white dishcloth. #weaving

Red and white woven dishcloth, shown next to a pair of snips (small bladed scissors) and a ball of red cotton thread. All on a light pink blanket as background, because I’m mostly stuck in bed and weaving and other yarn crafting is an easy and productive way to keep myself from going mad.

Second cotton dishcloth. I quite like this one, but the blue one is definitely softer. #weaving #dishcloth #stuckinbed #yarncraft

Spring!

A closeup of a ball of yarn, in white, green, and yellow. Soft colours. It looks like spring.

My pick up point for packages is also a small charity shop. And when I went to fetch my packages today, I found this lovely lovely spring coloured yarn. I immediately cast on a top, because even though spring still feels eons away, I’m a slow crocheter. #yarn #crochet #charityshop #secondhandyarn
