Hello we adopted a 3rd cat named Gladys, on Sunday. She's a goofball. She's 9 years old, 21 lbs & gets along well with Pippi & Darcy.

Give him head kisses for me

I painted a corset. Made a tutorial that's slightly too long to post here. Probably because I included Darcy who was laying behind me.

I was a mushroom in Saturday for the RVA Fae Fed booth at Cosplay World. It was fun. Weirdly talked about grief more than I expected & insects. Do I need a beetle inspired costume? Yeah, probably.

I'm rationally crocheting dragon wings, which probably also look like bat wings. I've finished 6 of 8 panels. Went faster today, after I understood the concept for making the points nice. I'm glad I learned how to read patterns & charts when I started learning crochet.

Also Pippi turned 15!

This is Pippi.

My grandpa survived. He was a sniper. My dad was born after he returned. My grandparents were in their 40s with 3 other kids at home when my grandpa was drafted. I'm always thankful he came home, while also honoring those who didn't.

I small elephant from the scraps would be cute.

There's something really satisfying about dropping $200+ on outdoor paint that will hold up for years, to make my outdoor wood furniture beautiful again. The paints is received in exchange for painting the pieces originally, has flaked off & faded. So I'm back to cleaned wood pieces for painting.

Last night RVA Fae Fed met up for the Seelie Court & to the release of 2 faerie meads that Nicole Pisaniello made artwork for, at Black Heath Meadery in RVA. We made flowers, played Rock Em Sock Em Fae Kings, colored & shared stories

Find us next at Fae Fest at IX Art Park June 28-29 in C'ville, VA

It's taken about a week to get most of the main area cleared. My allergies didn't appreciate the effort last week. It looks much nicer now.

Focused on the decorations in my studio. Put away supplies in an accessible & pretty way. Set up my toys & old art on the display shelves.

Cleaning my studio with this fuzzy assistant aka the complaints department.

The cutest multi-colored nurse, for recovering from a busy weekend.

The cutest multi-colored cuddler.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day. Picked a green outfit the holiday themed trivia tonight.

If you need some hope on what we're coping with in the USA go watch the German protest. They're both against the fascist party trying to get elected in Germany & the US gov. That image of Elon Musk doing the salute is illegal in Germany because of their anti-Nazi laws. It's seen as unconstitutional.

Boop!

Like you do...

My husband has a good theory that we're just giant penguins to our little penguin friends.

Darcy's favorite warm spot.

Enjoy the last day before tomorrow. Then four years…

Went to Drink & Draw RVA: A Poe Birthday Session w/ Brit Austin. The model was Saffron Soleil. It was a fun afternoon activity. This is the last drawing I did. This is the sketchbook I use for every drink & draw. I write the date & model name on the 1st page of each set.

Of course, for reasons.

I feel like that's an easy fix.

The conclusion is these are bun bun & deer tracks in my front yard.

Still gorgeous!

Jiji!
