Long ago I worked at a fabric shop, and each quarter the patterns/trims companies would rotate out old styles/colors to make room for new. The manager was supposed to destroy them so they couldn't be resold, but would just chuck them out back.
We did a lot of dumpster diving that year.

in college I worked at the Bombay Company, one of my mom’s favorite stores, and my middle-aged gay boss was obsessed with her. anytime something got even a tiny scratch, corporate ordered you to throw it out. he’d just lie and then hide it in a secret Theresa Could Fix This box for me to take home 😂

Small square watercolor of a hand holding a paint brush, which now has a shadow similar to the hand and the water cup

I looked at my reference photo after this and was poked in the eye by the lack of shadow from the paintbrush 🤦🏻‍♀️
Tell me you have no art training without telling me, etc
Quick fix later

A table is set with painting supplies - a cloth bag, a water cup with a bush perched across the top, a closed palette. Against the palette is leaning a small square watercolor of a table with painting supplies - a water cup, an open palette with a rainbow of colors. A pale hand is holding a paintbrush that is painting a purple swish on a small square watercolor.

#the100dayproject day 19, in which I try out water in a piston-filling brush fountain pen. As anticipated, I like it better than the squeezy kind of water brush.

#the100dayproject day 18, in which I ask, wait, can you embroider on watercolor paper?
Yes, it turns out. Carefully.

I have told several of my friends that there are people taking active steps towards making the apocalypse happen, and the reaction is always, "no way, that's crazy talk". I wanted them to be right.

Leo: Someone will try to make you feel better with stupid platitudes today. It works. After you gut them with a pen you'll feel much better.

Small square watercolor with a rainbow of colors in triangular shapes between white, taped-off bands

Triangles, triangles, triangles. They have 1, 2, 3 sides and 1, 2, 3 angles! Triangles, triangles, triangles - this is a triangle song!
I never meet anyone who remembers the "opera day" episode of Sesame Street, but this song reappears in my head kind of a lot.

6 mugs in one image. The first on the top left is blue and has a cat as a handle! The next to the right is intergalactic themed. To the right (and last in the top row) is a brown and blue mug called Spring Moss. In the bottom row, is a blue, red and brown mug with dotted clay. In the middle is another brown and blue mug with a more delicate handle. On the bottom right is a delightfully purple mug made of porcelain.

New mugs are heading into the kiln soon 🔥

To make room, most of the remaining mugs are now $65, shipping included.

If one’s been calling your name, this might be the moment to bring it home.

And if not, a share always helps. 🙏

Small square watercolor of a sleeping cat's head drawn in pink ink and painted orange and brown

I found a cheap, piston-filling fountain pen with a brush tip instead of a nib, and put a permanent ink in it to mess around. #the100dayproject day 12

Day 1 of #The100DayProject. I'll mend a hole daily. And advocate + model being an amateur! Amateur comes from amo, amore. Be a lover of what you do, dare to do it imperfectly. Don't leave the care and repair of our world to the professionals.

Ha! I love it!

Cool!

Small square abstract watercolor with intersecting sections of yellow-green and teal, with a lavender triangular-ish shape and darker lines that sort of look like a bird's head with a long, open beak

Accidentally painted a bird, so I added an eye.

There is going to be a very short poem in this piece. I am still working on it, but since it's one word per card there are parts I can do before final decisions get made.

Creativity is my ham. Kerning not so much.

My jam. I am so amused by this autocorrect, I'm leaving it.
