Only an artist would put the Virgin Mary in a bowl next to a flamingo. #seattleartist #gardenart #gardendecoration

The farmers who are being screwed by Trump should align with the Farm Workers. Farm workers know how to mobilize and make change.

And people are stocking up before prices go up. Even businesses not affected by the tariffs will raise prices and blame the tariffs.

Painting of pink and white fuchsia on a mottled background of reds, yellows, and blue green. The structure of the flower is in counterpoint to the randomness of the background.

Fuchsia. 60”x36” acrylic on canvas.

I was wondering which group would be alienated first by Trumps scorched earth actions. People love their entitlements but they don’t want anyone else to have them. Maybe being stuck holding the bag will wake them up.

What Sue said! Having you here is making it easier for me to dump Meta. ♥️

Another of my Organic series. In this painting I discovered the magic of translucency where movement in the flower comes from the irregularities in the background. #art #artshare #fineart #painting #floralart #hibiscus #artist

Roses. Our melting world and one of the most beautiful species on the planet. Plus white flowers are hard to paint. White isn’t really white. #fineart #art #artshare #artist #floral #roses

I’m so glad the snoots are on Bluesky. I’m getting off Insta and I would miss the girls so much!

Calla Lilies. Further exploration of chaos and structure. The background reminds me of a nebula. The complexity and beauty of both the cosmos and our planet occupy my thoughts while painting this series. That and how we’re f’n it up. #art #fineart #artshare #floralart

Bachelor Botton. When I was younger I wanted to be a botanical illustrator but I’m just not anal enough. This is a close as I get. 😊 Another in my Organic series where I’m exploring randomness and structure. 48”x48” acrylic on canvas. #art #artshare #fineart

Another of my Organic series paintings. The background speaks of the cosmic chaos that made us and the amazing plant life on earth. Randomness and structure.

This is the same strategy that the Dems used since Obama and look where we are. Apparently they are unable to pay attention.

More new work for the upcoming showcase. I never thought I’d enjoy painting small paintings but I am having so much fun in the studio! I actually feel freer painting small abstracts than the large laid-back realist works. Who knew? 😃

I will be part off this showcase. Drop by if you can to see me and some of my work. There will also be custom, handmade silk charmeuse scarves based on my floral paints that can be ordered and other items for sale. New works as well

This is the first painting in my Organic series where I’m exploring the creation (as in the Big Bang) and climate change. The fire from which we came, the complexity of our world, and the fading of both.
