Pretty sure those who came over on the Mayflower were immigrants too. SMH

I’ve noticed that I’ve been leaning into my #Minnesotan accent more lately. #ProudtobeaMinnesotan? You betcha!

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning

I was sent this video of agents at her door:

I would gladly spit on the face of every ICE flunky I see. I’m an American. Just like the rest of them. He fought for those who know these horrors. Trump relies on short memory. Mine carries the lesson of my ancestors. #neverforget

Can’t wait to see more defaced movie posters

Thank you. Just thank you so much.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

All to please a wannabe king who is demented and thrives on violence.

In my neighborhood there are candles in memorium in the snowbanks. #abolishice #minnesota #tinypainting #acrylicpainting

A second American citizen has been killed by immigration agents in Minneapolis, and DHS is blocking any independent investigation. When will my Republican colleagues speak out against this chaos? This can’t continue.

A little project I’m working on. Magnetic canvas tiles eventually in the shape of a floral arrangement in different artistic styles. I still have 7 more to paint

Not my usual subject matter but I’m feeling this little 4”x4” painting I did today.

Good point.

Heartbreaking.

New year resolutions: Read more, buy vintage.

Well, outside the anthropods are napping and it seems my captive ones are trying to nap… if it wasn’t for the annoying human with the phone…

I just finished up this little painting of a prickly pear. I picked up some magnetic canvases at Michael’s. I’m liking them a lot. My fridge will be covered in these by winters end. #painting #cactus

Goals. His command of light on snow is amazing

Morning… or whatever. I filled out FAFSA forms. (Yes Im still a senior, Van Wilder).

I’m hoping to complete my late Christmas story for you to read. For now, my bedhead has to be scary enough.

My attempt at painting knotweed. I think I need to try again. #painting

A teeny 6”x6” painting. Was thinking about how light reflects off of snow. #minipaintings #paintings
